it is obvious the Turkish Army intervened to stop the killing of Turkish Cypriots. This had gone on since the 1950's.
Then perhaps you would enlighten me by telling me how many T/Cs were killed SIX years before the Turkish invasion. I have asked this question at least one thousand times , I have yet to receive an answer.
I hope that you have done your research and have a credible answer.
May I also say , put up or shut up !
Over to you ..
Milti, why don't we start by saying how many GCs were killed between 15th and 20th of July 1974. Please don't quote 97, that is a joke. Major Dano alone killed more than that.
Stop kidding yourself, Sampson had only one thing in his mind. Ask yourself this question, why Did Sampson come to power? To do what Makarios would not do. Makarios wanted to use just economic power to cleanse the TCs and Sampson just did not have time for such niceties. Of all people you should be able to see that. We still have not found out how may were killed trying to attack Lurucina well south of the Green Line. How many Tanks were lost? 2 are there to this day as reminder of what Sampson intended for the TCs.
Fred , Sampson WAS NOT the first choice of the lunatics , Klerides was , he bluntly refused so Sampson was their forced choice.
You are still not answering my question . How many T/Cs were killed in the so called massacre that was NOT taking place 6 years prior to the Turkish invasion.
