21. These left-overs from the formerYoungTurk Party, who should have been
made to account for the millions of our Christian subjects who were ruthlessly
driven en masse from their homes and massacred, have been restive under the
Republican rule.They have hitherto lived on plunder, robbery and bribery and
become inimical to any idea, or suggestion to enlist in useful labor and earn
their living by the honest sweat of their brow… Under the cloak of the
opposition party, this element, who forced our country into the Great War
against the will of the people, who caused the shedding of rivers of blood of
theTurkish youth to satisfy the criminal ambition of Enver Pasha, has, in a
cowardly fashion, intrigued against my life, as well as the lives of the members
of my cabinet.
As to the fate of theThree Pashas, two of them,Talaat Pasha and Djemal Pasha, were assassinated by Armenian nationals
shortly after the end of WWI while in exile in Europe during Operation Nemesis, a revenge operation against perpetrators of
the Armenian Genocide. SoghomonTeghlirian, whose family was killed in the Armenian Genocide, assassinated the exiled
Talaat Pasha in Berlin and was subsequently acquitted by a German jury. Djemal Pasha was similarly killed by Stepan
Dzagikian, Bedros Der Boghosian, and Ardashes Kevorkian for “crimes against humanity" inTbilisi,Georgia.The third pasha,
Encer Pasha, was killed in fighting against the Red Army near Baldzhuan inTajikistan (thenTurkistan).
