"Are you suggesting that without the intervention, the GCs would have defeated the 'Coupists?'."
I am not suggesting it. I am sure of it. Two hundred EOKA boys held 35 000 British at bay for four years. Thousands of well armed Cypriots with a large popular support base would have made monkeys of the coupists in a few weeks. I have first hand knowledge of preparations made to fight back. And it was not anything tame like blwoing up a car or cutting electricity cables either. There are TCs who know too, find them and ask them. They were involved too.
Comeon Nikitas, we know guerilla warfare is different from street to street fighting. Anyway we will never know. now, will we.
