Talk:Death march

Greek genocide.

Why is the Greek Death March not included on the death march page? A link from the Greek genocide brought me to the page yet it doesn't list it. Wikipedia has more on Armenian Genocide Earthgodess53 (talk) 22:47, 24 April 2017 (UTC)

Why doesn't this include the Greek Death March it includes Armenian?

I am wondering why it doesn't include the horrible Death Marchers​ of the Grecian people? My Grandfather was born during this period. I see more about Armenians. Why is this the case Earthgodess53 (talk) 22:49, 24 April 2017 (UTC)

Bleiburg

According to this book, the characterization of the executions in and around Bleiburg as a "death march" is a talking point developed by post-war revisionists to draw a moral equivalence between the Partisans and the fascists they fought against.

1948 Palestinian expulsion from Lod and Ramla is not a death march

Based on the Wikipedia entry "1948 Palestinian expulsion from Lydda and Ramle" 1st people from Ramla where taken by buses. 2nd From Lod the distance was 10-15 mile or max 20km. In the Wikipedia now mention of the "usually feature harsh physical labor and abuse, neglect of prisoner injury and illness, deliberate starvation, humiliation, torture, and execution of those unable to keep up the marching pace."

Altogether the percentage of people died is not more than 1% (if 1 take worst estimate of dead people and the lowest estimte of total deported people) and probably less than promil. So compare to the other death marches it is a different story. Expultion or ethnic cleansing maybe in place but not death march Eyal Morag (talk) 10:18, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

We go by reliable sources and reliable sources do in fact call it the Lydda Death March. IOHANNVSVERVS (talk) 04:03, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

Removed image and info

File:Dien Bien Phu 1954 French prisoners.jpg

French soldiers who were captured at Điện Biên Phủ were force-marched over 600 km (370 mi). Of 10,863 prisoners, only 3,290 of them were repatriated four months later.

I removed this image from the article as it lacks citation and was misplaced. IOHANNVSVERVS (talk) 04:02, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

Any long and difficult march

can be called a death march, e.g., the Carolean Death March or the death march from Srebrenica to Tuzla. Revery (talk) 12:06, 24 April 2025 (UTC)
