After reading the many comments by Armenians insisting that their ancestors were victims of genocide in WWI, I felt it was time to remind people around the world what Armenians did in WWII. Because it was in fact Armenians that collaborated with Nazi Germany. By rounding up the Jews and forcing them into concentration camps for extermination.

The Armenian youth federation was one of the largest suppliers of young soldiers for Hitler’s Army. Armenian politicians, also took part in Hitler’s racial purity campaigns, and for their efforts, the Armenian National Council was given official Nazi recognition. The Armenian battalions that supported Nazi Germany in WWII, were the 812th Armenian Legion, the 808th,809th,810th,812th,813th,814th,815th,816th, the 58th Panzer Corps and the Ostlegion of the Wehrmacht’s 10th Army, the Caucasian Waffen-SS unit commanded by Alfred Muradian and Armik Jamalian. Referring to their support of Nazi Germany as Armenian power and pride.

The following is an translated quote from an Armenian news paper called Hairenik from August 19, 1936. (Sometimes it is difficult to eradicate these poisonous elements (the Jews) when they have struck deep root like a chronic disease, and when it becomes necessary for a people (the Nazis) to eradicate them in an uncommon method these attempts are regarded as revolutionary. During a surgical operation the flow of blood is a natural thing. Under such conditions dictatorship seems to have the role of a savior regarded as revolutionary. )
