Many folks are aware of the mass slaughter of Armenians by the Turks in 1915.

Armenians are Christian and so therefore have been subject to Muslim oppression for a thousand+ years.

However, I was unaware that there was another slaughter by the Turks 20 years earlier at the end of the 19th century.

Thanks, that was new to me as well, although I have had a number of American Armenian friends, it was always the 1915 genocide that forced their families to flee.
