Armenians fights with Persians and Genocidal (??) Turks are not a party to the fight AGAIN!
Here is another correspondence from Major Trotter, who, according to Dashnak (Nazi) Armenians, and their western instigators, must have been a Turk, a Turkish agent, a Georgian, a Self-Hating (sic) Jew, or a denialist who received blood money from Turks for denying the first and well established (sic) genocide of 20th Century, exactly depicting who was fighting with whom and who were killing whom and who was protecting while being killed by whom.
Although Western governments hold all these documents in their archives and are very well aware of the farce, they intentionally warp the very knowledge they have, for the purpose of capitalizing on it!...
Disgusting vultures!... They feed on anything.
The following correspondence further reveals that there was no tension between Turks and Armenians (although that will change after Armenian bandits started staging ethnic cleansing on menless Turks, consisting of children and women, avoiding formidable Kurds, despite it was Kurds who were oppressing them).
Even Vali (i.e. governor) Pasha did best to mobilize troops to prevent fight, which will certainly end-up in bloodshed (mostly of the Armenians, of course).
And Dashnak (Nazi) Armenians and their western puppet masters, want us to believe that the same troops started collecting Armenians for a genocide? Sure!... It must be so. At any rate, I am a worthless barbarian not a Westerner of supreme race!...
Anyway read yourself and let the truth be told.
P.S. Now they are liberating Libya (which was their close friend, flowing oil to Western companies) and next Syria!... Now instead of Qaddafi, their western companies shall sit on oil beds, using the locals as laborers while their white collared crooks would live in wealth.
Do you think anything shall change in Libya (in terms of tyranny)? Now, the real oppressor got rid of his old dictator, and we will see within next decade, they shall install new dictators over there.
Just like Iraq, which was liberated by USA and their allies (who were there for the crumbs), Libya shall also become a sh*thole (pardon my French).

| My Lord, | ERZEROUM, Jul; ı8, 1879. (Received August 7.) |
I REGRET to have to announce that a serious disturbance took place in this town on Monday, the 14th instant. For some time past there has been considerable ill-feeling between the Persians and Armenians of this city, which culminated on Thursday, the 10th instant, on which day a Persian youth enticed into his house and raped an Armenian girl of 12 or 13 years of age. The criminal was arrested by the Armenians and handed over to the Persian Consul, who ordered him to be kept in custody. On the following day the prisoner was allowed by the Persian cavass, who was in charge of him, to walk about in some place of public resort, where he was seen by some Armenians, who were much excited thereat. A large body of them waited on the Pasha to demand the close imprisonment of the culprit. To quell the excitement, the Persian Consul ordered the transfer of the prisoner to the custody of the local authorities; but the Armenian public was maintained in a state of fermentation by rumours that the Persian Consul was endeavouring to hush the matter up and to get the prisoner released on bail. The local authorities meanwhile, in spite of rumours to the contrary, had kept the Persian in prison, but the case still caused much excitement both amongst Armenians and Persians, the culprit being the son of a highly respected and popular member of the Persian community. While the irritation was at its height, on Monday a dispute arose in the shop of a Persian baker between a Persian and an Armenian. From words the disputants soon came to blows, while Persians and Armenians came hurrying to the assistance of their respective comrades; a free fight ensued, in which, as the Persians were mostly armed, while the Armenians had nothing but sticks or whatever else they could lay their hands on at the moment, the latter got the worst of it and fled, five of their number being wounded. Reports were at once circulated that a number of Armenians had been killed by Persians, the church bell was rung, great excitement prevailed, and large bodies of Armenians collected to go to revenge their comrades, some of them armed with revolvers, others with sticks, stones, or whatever they could lay their hands on. The Persians meanwhile, in large numbers and all armed with swords and daggers, were awaiting the attack, when most fortunately the Vali Pasha appeared on the scene, followed almost immediately by large bodies of soldiers. Armenians and Persians were so anxious to get at each other that it was no easy matter to keep the would-be combatants apart, and, as far as I can learn, both parties for a time resisted the efforts of the soldiery to keep the peace, but, as the Persians were mostly shut up in their khan by the Pasha’s orders, while the Armenians were in the street, the latter were the greatest sufferers, and at least ten more were more or less seriously wounded, many of them by soldiers, before quiet was restored.
Two or three revolvers were fired off by Armenians in the course of the day, but no one appears to have been hurt by them. Two soldiers were wounded, and one or two Persians are said to have been injured. There is no doubt that, had it not been for the timely interference of the Governor and troops, there would have been a much more serious not, and many lives would probably have been lost.
There was, of course, great excitement all the rest of the day; the shops were closed, bodies of troops were posted in the principal places, and strong patrols traversed the streets. Guards were placed at the different Consulates, and every precaution has been successfully taken to prevent further disorders. It was fully expected by the best informed that there would be further disturbances, and the troops are still kept under arms, but happily everything is now quiet, and will, I hope, remain so.
I believe the soldiery behaved with great moderation, and I myself saw some of them perfectly steady under very great provocation.
The Persian Consul and the Armenian Bishop both addressed me long despatches on the subject of the fight, each one trying to throw the whole blame on the other community.
I replied at some length to both of them, and without giving an opinion as to who was to blame, İ urged each one to do his utmost to calm down the excitement existing in his community. To the Bishop also I deemed it necessary to point out the necessity of instructing some of the wilder members of his flock of the absolute necessity of refraining from taking the law into their own hands, and resisting lawful authority.
The excitement amongst them was so high on the day of the not that they actually set to and thrashed one of the leading members of their own community who was endeavouring to restrain them from violence.
I warned the Bishop that if the Armenians—even a few of them—opposed forcibly the authority of the Government, they would not only have arrayed against the soldiery and the Persians, but also the whole of the Mussulman population of the town, with results which could only be most deplorable. The Turks of the city have hitherto not been mixed up in the affair.
I beg to inclose translation of an official communication I have received from his Excellency the Vali Pasha, explaining the measures he has taken for ensuring the maintenance of order. He explained the tenour of them to me personally on the morning following the not, and 1 expressed my approval generality of the propositions he made.
The Vali has acted well in the matter, having himself interfered at considerable personal risk to separate the combatants, and he appears to have acted impartiality towards both parties.
I have, &c.
