The statement that best analyzes the allegation that the Armenian genocide was not genocide is that the overwhelming consensus among historians, scholars, and international organizations is that the mass killings and deportations of Armenians by the Ottoman government during World War I constituted genocide. The denial of the Armenian genocide runs counter to this historical consensus and is often motivated by political or nationalistic agendas. Denying the Armenian genocide ignores the overwhelming evidence of systematic violence, intent to destroy a specific group, and historical documentation of the events that occurred during this period.
