Found and watched this last night. I think certain GCs in here really need to see it.

Tony was attacked by the Greek Cypriot media and death threats are part of his daily diet, nevertheless he has become a strong voice of peace and reconciliation within his community. In one of his interviews when asked about the attack by the nationalists media he said, “All this trash they throw against me will one day become a platform for me to speak to the country, the more trash the bigger the platform”. The documentary reveals the mass execution of civilians, mainly woman and children, by Greek nationals during the second intervention of the Turkish army. After 30 years of silence eyewitness of the event talk to the camera and reveal how they survived. If for no other reason this documentary is very important for those interested in the Cyprus history. It reveals the atmosphere of hatred that existed in the island those days.

But please bear in mind the Turkish attrocities are VERY VERY VERY VERY WELL documented and known throughout the world...this is the first time majority of the people featured in this video have spoken out about what happened to them, this is the case for majority of TCs who suffered in those times.
