Why didn't they occupie the SBA's?

It was not planned, I suppose. They did enter the area and a new battle front nearly opened. They pulled back in the nick of time when they realised where they were. I think it was the momentum of the push. No one opposing them till they saw the Union Jack and the Gurkhas..

It was bloody obvious, the British were in it with them. The dozy turks went there in error. If they had tried it on then the British would have HAD to get involved, but they only wanted the be the stirrers of the conflict, not to actually get involved.

Its a bit of a coincidence, don't you think that they invasion stopped at the same profile as the road that leads from dhekelia - St Nick. This is "British territory" and we can't have that can we ????

If they were in it together, then they would have allowed the tanks free passage to Larnaca. They went according to pre-drawn plans. Its easy to say they were in it together after the fact.

Deniz, come on, you know what happened right? This was part of the Divide and Rule tactic, please don't insult our intelligence on this. Even the British Government themselves have admitted this, just read the archives.

If Britain really wanted to they could have prevented this, you know that, but they chose to bury their heads and let the rotweiler lose so that they could retain their own interests.

Even Kissengers words to your then prime minister were, "you take the island and we'll get yoyu a solution" thats how sure he was. This sort of operation does not just fall out of the sky, the UK and US have invested heavily in intelligence and they were not going to get caught with their pants down.

No sir, this was premeditaed, preplanned and executed with the full knowledge of the UK and US governments. Simple, anything else is pure BS.

We always hear GC's saying its a fact it's in the archives - So come on gives us the references so we can see it's not GC BS.

Nurgary, you can find these for yourself. We don't need to search to provide you with this public information.

You know what I have said is true and correct, and possibly someone may be along shortly with the necessary links, I can't be bothered is the honest answer. With or without links you have already made up your mind about the GCs so makes no difference.

And BTW, welcome to the forum.

Agree with P. The most disgraceful, underhanded act in recent GB history. Whether by the planned actions of GB or through its inaction. Whichever way you look at it GB is condemned.

I wanted to post something about ID cards as per the post. Don't like them, no matter whatever national government issues them. To my mind another attempt at state control of the citizenry. My ID is my business and mine alone. I will burn mine when the GB government tries to issue them.

I believe that if somebody posts they should include a reference. There is far to much word of mouth quoted on forums.

The same day Turkish Prime Minister Ecevit also met with Harold Wilson and James Callaghan and asked permission to invade Cyprus through the British Bases. Although they refused to join Turkey in such an operation, purely on legal grounds (they knew they would be in deep trouble had they conceded) they eagerly promised to help Ecevit to proceed with the invasion when they agreed to prevent Greece from rushing troops in aid of Cyprus.

Therevealing factor in this case is of course two fold. A) The original intention of Turkey was to invade and occupy the whole of the island if one takes into consideration that the bases are located on the other side of Cyprus and B) The British Government gave its tacit clearance to Turkey to proceed with the invasion and promised to do everything to blockade Greece from helping Cyprus (which in fact tallies perfectly with the British 1964 preparation plan for a Turkish invasion).

A lobby for Cyprus link that doesn't reference any documents. What shite is this.

[Oracle]

What do you have against a lobby for Cyprus ..... is that not the country we all love and fight over ....

Do you want a Turkish reference ... would that make more sense for information on Cyprus?

I wish these Turks disguised as Brits would come out ...

On 14 August, despite the fact that talks were still being held in Geneva and just as agreement was about to be reached, the Turkish army mounted a second full-scale offensive, thereby belying Turkey's original pretext that it was invading in order to restore constitutional order, in view of the fact that constitutional order had already been restored.
