just to make things clear.
ofcource the USA organised coups all over the world, and ofcource they dont give a shit about innocent people.
in the case of cyprus, there is not enough evidence that suggests that the US organised the whole thing.
there is also no evidence that suggests that the US has or had anything to win from the invasion.
what there is evidence of is that they had information about it..... the reaction of state department was: is really ioanides such a moron, that he expects that a coup will not cause a turkish reaction ? unfortunately the stupidity of ioannides is beyond my understanding.
the US after shit hit the fun, had only one objective : to avoid war between greece and turkey.
it made no difference for them, if cyprus united with greece, or turkey invaded.
when they had interests that turkey should not invade cyprus, they prevented it.
in 74 things changed, since the Soviet Union also didnot give a shit about cyprus anymore.
the only way one can blame the US, is by taking an "ethical path". that they as a super power had a "moral duty to prevent the coup and the coming invasion".
if one sees Iraq and still expects "moralities" .....
