TROUBLESOME BISHOPS

The story of Archbishop Makarios's exile

By David Carter


'Who will rid me of this turbulent priest?' - King Henry II, speaking about Becket

[Gasman]

Serapheim was less sophisticated than Makarios and had a village mentality. He was stuck in yesteryear, always opposing everything of which he disapproved and reacting with brute force where he could. Throughout his life he opposed the Istanbul-based Ecumenical Patriarchate, the spiritual head of world orthodoxy. He thought Turks had corrupted its being.

Are you descended from this bloke Oracle?

I do find it strange if you kill for a cause your country beleives in you are a hero, if not you are a terriost what is the difference please

[Oracle]

What are you talking about? By condemning him to exile?

so he should have been left to be murdered by his fellow cypriots ?
no one "condemmned" him to Exile - he went of his own accord.

In February, 1954, Archbishop Makarios visited Athens and persuaded the Greek Government to place the Cyprus question before the United Nations. While in Athens, he laid the foundation for the organization of the Island’s national resistance and as a result EOKA, “National Organization of Cyprus Fighters”, was formed.

On August 20 of the same year, Greece submitted a petition to the United Nations requesting the application of the principle of self-determination to the people of Cyprus. After that, the colonial Government of Cyprus enforced the anti-sedition laws for the purpose of preventing or suppressing demonstrations for freedom; but the Archbishop defied them and continued demanding self-determination for Cyprus.

In October 1955, he started meetings with the Governor of Cyprus, Field-Marshal Sir John Harding, (later Lord Harding of Petherton) with whom he discussed the future of the Island. The talks, which continued until March 1956, did not result in agreement. As a consequence, Archbishop Makarios was exiled to the Seychelles in the Indian Ocean on March, 9, 1956.

On the 28th March 1957, the Archbishop was released from exile on the condition that he should not return to Cyprus. He went to Athens where he was accorded a triumphant welcome by the people of Greece.

During the following two years he attended the General Assembly of the United Nations where the Cyprus question was discussed and worked hard to achieve freedom for his people.

TROUBLESOME BISHOPS

The story of Archbishop Makarios's exile

By David Carter


'Who will rid me of this turbulent priest?' - King Henry II, speaking about Becket

David Carter is and always has been a two bit author , unresearched work and books written according to his own perception and interpretation of events. To start with , he fails miserably to mention once that Cyprus WAS OCCUPIED BY THE BRITISH. He went along with the corrupt British policy at the time that since Cyprus was of strategic importance to Britain it would remain for ever as a British colony any Cypriot movement to rid Cyprus of the British occupation was interpreted by that peculiar British logic as a terrorists movement. So fuck us right left and centre , should we dare to resist we are branded terrorists. British bollocks.
EOKA and the Cypriot people had every right to resist the British occupation , the struggle was a noble one , the Brits used Cyprus for their own benefit , why not every other superpower used some nation for their own benefits why not the Brits. The fact of the matter is that the British media at the time convinced their own people that we the Cypriots were murderers , low down terrorists , well I remember back in 1961 telling them to fuck off and reminded them that our struggle was the same as their struggle against the Nazis , did they think that only THEY had the right to freedom ? Stupid sods , not the people but the entire successive British governments whom we now know were far to busy milking the system and feathering greedily their nests. These bastard politicians who have consistently lied to the British people , the same by product of politicians that tell their people that the Muslim population of the UK amounts to 1.8 million !!! So for every 1 Cypriot there are ...6 Muslims !!!
Work it out folks , the British parliamentary system has thrived for years based on ...democratic deception .
Any one who fought them in order to rid themselves of their occupation was naturally a ..terrorist. !
