Al Jazera has 50 million viewers worldwide, I dont think it was very good for our Greek friends. Lord Hannay is talking for the whole of UK and should be taken very seriously. Excellent programme and ver well moderated. I was grateful for the time allocated to the lady caller from the USA, she at least managed to enlighten the audience that the Turkish intervention was necessary and justified.

Not even 50 billion viewers can change international law for ONE country and protect theirs!

I whatched until the gorilla Anan came on then I just knew the whole thing was bent. Say no more. Hannay is pissed because the Ankara Plan he concocted didn't work and has nothing in favour to say for the GC. Its just punishment time.

Did they at least respect the fact that 67% if the GC rejected it and that their democratic right should be respected??? NO!

So what we have is a mish mash of bollocks yet again by the turks to try and gain support.

The murders the lady mentioned were in December 1963, 11 years before the Greek Coup and Turkeys 'intervention'. Wow. Was that the reason Turkey intervened? to avenge the murdered Turkish family?
