The Armenian Genocide is a genocide specifically because the Armenian people were targeted for elimination by Young Turk leaders like Enver Pasha. Even if the Turks' claims that there were Armenians conspiring with the Russians are taken at face value (unlike the farce that they are), there would be no point in executing Armenian Pro-Ottoman intellectuals and numerous women and children. These repeated killings of Pro-Ottoman Armenians and women and children demonstrate that the attempt was extermination, not the minimization of a wartime threat.
