Ask yourself and answer honestly: Why DID the Turks invade/intervene in 1974?
Invasions/interventions cost a fortune in lives, money and materiel. They are not undertaken lightly.
I see you rightly refer to it as "my property" although I am not worried about it in the slightest.
Do you by any chance know how many Turkish Cypriots were killed
in inter communal conflict some 6 years before the invasion. I bet you were told that they were being massacred. The truth mate is NONE !
ps. The allies invaded Normandy in order to defeat the Nazis and liberate Europe , what is the relevance with Turkey invading Cyprus Plonker !!
I see you deliberately ensure that your period of time begins in 1968. After Kokkina and the intervention of the Turkish Air Force. Again!!.
However, after this time, when Grivas had been returned to Greece, Makarios was too intimidated to do much to the TC's except harrass them continually when they left their enclaves, which totalled 3% of the land mass of Cyprus!!!!. You fail to mention the deaths of Turkish Cypriots up to 1968 though. Why? Too embarrassed??
I'm afraid before you call anyone a plonker you need to look into a mirror first!!
