So why you don't tell me when was the last time that a state was established by means of invasion by another country and ethnically cleansing the majority of its population?
The USA, Canada, Australia, The USSR and last but not least and the newest addition to countries that was established by force of arm and invasion is of course the "RoC".
In the middle ages maybe?
Maybe you would like to return to rule of jungle before the existance of international law and human rights, so the Turks could just invade, rape, butcher and steal the land of others just like they used to do when they were creating their empire?
Or the Greeks?
Also, right wing Greeks tried to - BY FORCE OF ARMS - to remove the Turkish Cypriot presence on Cyprus in order to annex it to Greece.
Nobody tried to "remove the Turkish Cypriot presence".
During the intercommunal conflict both sides had a small number of casualties (a few 100s each), and in 1974 no TC was killed until
after the Turkish invasion had started.
During the Turkish invasion, that killed 1000s of GCs, a couple of 100s of TCs were killed as well.[/quote]
And now you are also going to lie to us that the EOKA scums would not have genocided us TCs in 1974 to get you your ENOSIS had Turkey not interfered and saved our lives, right?
"intercommunal conflict" my arse, it was attempted genoicde to get rid of us TCs to get the GCs and Greeks their ENOSIS as in Crete.
Go on, make our day and tell us more lies.
