So the German and Austrian officers attached to Ottoman units throughout the Ottoman empire, that witnessed and reported to their ambassadors, are all lying.

Taner Akcam is lying as well, I suppose.

According to some sources, Dr. Nazim said after the events at Adana:'The Ottoman Empire must be Turkish alone. The existence of foreign citizenship is a tool for European intervention. The empire must be Turkified by force of arm.' " -- "A Shameful Act", by Taner Akcam, p70
"
Dr. Ernst Kwiatkowski, the Austrian consul for Trabzon, reported being told by a Turkish officer that in the first days of July 1915, some 132 Armenian soldiers had been killed in the village of Hamzakoy. Between Diyarbakir and Urfa, likewise, in a report dated 3 September 1915, the consul described the killings of hundreds of Armenians who had been forced to work in road construction in his region. Walter Rossler, the consul in Aleppo, reported that a German officer had told of seeing bodies all of young men from the labor battalions, all with their throats slit." --"A Shameful Act", by Taner Akcam, p145
