Özet
Tarihsel süreçte asırlarca Türklerle birlikte yaşayan Ermeniler, 19. yüzyılın ikinci yarısından itibaren sürekli Osmanlı Devleti’ne zorluklar çıkarmıştır. Gerek Osmanlı Devleti’nin taraf olduğu uluslararası sorunların çözümü odaklı konferans ve anlaşmalarda kendilerini gündeme aldırarak ve gerekse isyanlar çıkartarak bir takım kazanımlar elde etme yoluna gitmişlerdir. İngiltere, Fransa ve Rusya’nın verdiği desteklerle cesaretlenen Ermeniler “Büyük Ermenistan” hayalinin gerçekleşeceğine de inanmışlardır. Büyük devletlerin siyasî desteği ve Ermeni çetelerin silahlandırılmasına sağladıkları katkı ile Ermenilerdeki bu inanç, Milli Mücadele Dönemi’ne gelinceye kadar gerçekleştirdikleri isyan ve eşkıyalığın temel itici gücü olmuştur. Milli Mücadele Dönemi’nde bir yandan Büyük Ermenistan ideali için çabalayan Ermeniler diğer yandan Çukurova’da Fransa himayesinde bir “Muhtar Ermeni İdaresi” kurmayı da amaçlamışlardır. Bu amacı gerçekleştirebilmek için Fransız işgal kuvvetlerine gönüllü sıfatıyla katılırken aynı zamanda Fransız işgal kuvvetlerinden aldıkları silah ve cephane desteği ile çeteler teşkil etmişlerdir. Fransız işgal kuvvetlerinin verdiği destekten cesaretlenen Ermeni çeteleri, Müslüman ahaliye karşı baskı ve yıldırma politikası uygulamış, birçok soygun, hırsızlık ve katliam gerçekleştirmişlerdir. Bu saldırılarla Müslüman ahaliyi başka bölgelere göçe zorlarken diğer yandan da I. Dünya Savaşı’nda Suriye’ye iskân edilmiş Ermenileri geri göçe teşvik ederek, nüfus bakımından Çukurova’da üstünlüğü sağlamaya gayret etmişlerdir. Yeni Adana, Milli Mücadele Dönemi’nin önemli gazetelerinden biridir. Araştırmamız bu gazetede yer alan Ermeni çetelerinin Müslüman ahaliye yönelik gerçekleştirdiği saldırılar ve Ermeni Meselesi ile ilgili haber ve yorumların değerlendirilmesini ihtiva etmektedir.
Armenians who lived with the Turks in peace for centuries had begun to involve in separatist activities against Ottoman Empire since the second half of the 19 th Century. They tried to gain several achievements by organizing revolts, and by putting themselves on the agenda both in conferences and agreements which was focused on solving international problems of the Ottoman Empire. Armenian nationalists who were encouraged by the support of Britain, France, and Russia, believed that the idea of “Greater Armenia” would be achieved. This belief in Armenians, with the political support of major states and their contribution to the arming of Armenian gangs, was the main impetus for the rebellions. During the period of national struggle, Armenians, on the one hand, strived for the idea of Greater Armenia, on the other hand, aimed to establish a “Autonomous Armenian Administration” in Çukurova (Cilicia) under the auspices of France. To achieve this goal, they joined the French occupation forces as volunteers, while at the same time forming gangs with the support of weapons and ammunition of which they received from the French occupation forces. Armenian gangs encouraged by the support of the French occupation forces implemented a policy of oppression and intimidation against the Muslim population and carried out many robberies, burglaries, and massacres. These attacks forced Muslim people to migrate to other regions, and on the other hand, by encouraging Armenians who were resettled in Syria to emigrate back in World War I, they tried to gain the upper hand in Çukurova in terms of population. Yeni Adana Newspaper is one of the important newspapers of the national struggle period. Our research includes an assessment of the attacks carried out by Armenian gangs on Muslim people and news and comments on the Armenian issue in this newspaper.
