The genocidal actions taken may or may not have been a programmatic action of the government. It is a certainty that the "transportation/forced migration" policies ended up killing many Armenians, even if that was not their ostensible intent.

I have not reached a full set of conclusions here.
Armenians topping a million, during their enforced migration (Law of Tehcir) lost their lives unfortunately, due to the avenging of Turks and Kurds from them about the deeds of the Armenian gangs raised, armed and provocated by the Russians during their Caucasian Invasion and the French. The reasons to such a massacre also compose of the poor organization of the enforcement by the state (I wonder how they thought they could think of succeeding such transportation through those times when the army was exhausted, the state was in chaos and the folk was terribly war worn, poor and furious). Famine, epidemic and -as foretold- murders ended up with so many lives -mostly innocent- getting lost into the darkest pages of history, sticking at the Turkish nation's face as a "genocide" -which was never intended nor imposed.

Once again, God bless the innocent ones who lost their lives during these unfortunate massacres with comfort as they do deserve.

P.S. "Systematicallity" is one of the fundamental attributes of the term "genocide".
