No Piratis I do not read what I want....
Firts of all when did EOKA-B had emerged? Answer this question. It emerged in the late 60s and early 70s (specially between 68-74). Before then there was no distinction between EOKA or EOKA-B.
Every member just belonged to EOKA.
And furtermore. Who do you think that EOKA-B people were. EOKA-B was splinter group that is split from main EOKA. So the same members of a groups that you call terrorist were also the same members of another group you call liberator.
It really does not matter to me if you see EOKA as a libertor, which certainly you do. As I have said I do not want to look at the past. All I care about how things will take place in the future.
But you and people like you, and together with your rightous results does not change the fact that in the minds and hearts of TCs EOKA was a terroist organization that targetted civillian TCs together with Brits. Late ron from the ashes of your sp called liberator organization rise another terrorist group called EOKA-B, which was everything the same with EOKA with only exception of its targets. This time around targets were other GCs and TCs. But always there was one common enemy, TCs. Whether you accept it or not.
And you are claminig here to me that Turkish army one the island was based on no excuses. Yes it was based on excuse Piratis. Turkey should not have intervened so that people like you could have enjoyed being a part of a military junta regime in Greece.
