Edit "Argentina"
At the moment it is stated that the "CPPCG does not include the elimination of political groups (because that group was removed at the behest of Stalin) ". While this maybe should just show the opinion of Judge Carlos Rozanski, it does not represent the more diverse historical facts. Actually, several states opposed the deletion of "political groups" from the convention and the finally successful attempt was led by Iran, Uruguay, and Egypt.
Therefore, I think, that the Stalin part should be removed and the discussion of whose fault it is that "political groups" are not part of the Convention should be transferred to the Convention-article.
This page lacks an unavoidable reference to the acts of genocides committed by Timur during 35 years, including systematic ethnic cleansing and execution of entire populations, such as in Delhi and Middle East. According to Timur's contemporary chronicles and modern Historians, most victims were killed because of their religion beliefs, including Hindi, Buddhist, Armenian, Georgian, Greek Orthodox, etc. Estimates vary between 17 and 20 Million victims:
17 Million vicitms according to "The History of the Mongol Conquests" of
John Joseph Saunders (1971) and the "Armies of the Ottoman Turks, 1300–1774." of David Nicolle (1983).
20 Million victims according to "Tamerlane: Sword of Islam, Conqueror of the World" of Justin Marozzi (2004). — Preceding unsigned comment added by As97wiki (talk • contribs) 21:42, 25 December 2023 (UTC)
