Customer Reviews of THE GREEK HOLOCAUST: 1915-1922
Another one-sided documentary Once again, we have a program that tells only of the trageies that befell the Greeks. But not much is said of how the Greek Army invaded Turkey in 1919 -- as a surrogate force for the British -- and began to massacre Turks in its drive toward Ankara. Not much is said about how Mustafa Kemal and his Turkish nationalist army stopped the Greeks and forced them back toward Izmir, or how the Greeks massacred thousands of more Turks on their retreat. (Arnold Toynbee reported on atrocities/massacres committed by Greeks.) <
> As with the Armenians, there is more to this story than a "genocide" committed by the Turks. The historical record indicates that all sides were guilty in a bloodbath that lasted many years in the late Ottoman Empire. Armenians and Greeks have a difficult time with the gruesome history of their own ancestors, preferring to blame Turks as the "other", the enemy responsible for all the horror. <
> That horror is a shared one. Western audiences need to understand the simple fact that most programs (like this one) about "genocides" committed against Greeks and Armenians are propaganda...not carefully researched chronicles of the historical reality. Hundreds of thousands of Turks and other Muslims were tortured and massacred by Greeks and Armenians during the World War I era. Shall we also call that a genocide?
Blame Greece
I'm a "greek" Cypriot. Greece invaded Turkey and was defeated. Unfortunately the prize for the defeat was paid by the Greek community of Asia Minor.This documentary does not show the atrocities the Greek invading army committed against the Turkish people.
<
>Greece did the same in Cyprus. It overthrew our government and caused Turkey to intervene. Greece again lost. The prize for this defeat was paid by one third our population who are still live as refugees in our own land. For both "olokaftomata" I blame Greece more than Turkey.
The Greek Holocaust: 1915-1922
The interviews with survivors of the Greek Holocaust are real and gripping and easily overcome the less-than-Hollywood standard production values. The emotional stories come through loud and clear and that is what is most important. The topic is especially important as few people, other than Greeks and Turks, know about it.
