but we are not talking attrocities here are we? the question that i am asking is why the tcs didn't fight along the side of the coupists as i consider the coupists to be the anathema to the tcs. as we still are reiminded of the enosis bullshit to this very day.
they opted for ethnic cleansing instead.
why bir? why zan?
Just one more question
Have you ever read and tried to quantify what went on on the island with regards to the Akritas Plan and where we are today with it?????
fuck man are you punch drunk or something?
you think every single gc wanted enosis or endorsed the akritas plan, bexause if every gc was behind the akritas plan or what ever, i don't think there would have been a tcs alive today.
just get it through your head that the majority was against enosis and they fought against it. surely you can see this point coz even blind freddy can.
we are talking now 74 and you are talking 63. during the height of inter communal fighting. come on get it together zan.
i would have thought the tcs ould have come out in droves to avenge the tormentors, rather than opting for ethnic cleansing. especially that peace prevail 6 years prior to the invasion.
I can see that you have not by your response then
Sorry mate but if you cannot see that the Akritas Plan was not a question of immediate annihilation of the TCs but words like "Communal Fighting" is perfect for it....There was no communal fighting mate because the TCs had no weapons but a few shotguns. Why do you think that it was so important to get arms from Turkey by a single and dangerous boat trip.....?
The communal fighting was so that Makarios could formally ask for UN intervention so that he would automatically become the sole government of the island......It worked only to a point and then we had the farce of &$ where Makarios did it again in a made up conflict with Greece. Ask for intervention by the UN and you automatically become the recognised government of the country.....Luckily Turkey saw through their little plan....Clever man that Ecevit!!!!!!!
well ecevit wasn't very clever because the RoC did become a member of the EU under his watch bringing turkey to the comedy festival every night of the week.
Makarios was the president, HEAD OF STATE, at the time and he had every right to call upon the UN. i don't see anything wrong there. I am just wondering if you also read sumblime messages in ice cubes zan.
the communal fighting subsided way before 74 with some normality returning to the island till the coup.
in any case we both surely must agree that the coupists were indeed the tcs worsed nightmare as was the tmt. what I can't figured out why didn't the tcs try and avenge themselves against their enemies rather opting for backstabbing.
you tried to answer but you as i said you only tried.
now and you answer as to why you are now punishing 70 million turks after they took so much care of you? ungratefulness, selfishness? what is it?
