and the joke is it wouldn't have happened if GC's and the junta didn't push for enosis...so really your a prisoner of your own doings...you were just dumb and shot yourself in the foot...just like when greece tried to take Smyrna/Izmir and were annihilated by a much inferior army (how did that happen?)...the point is you blame everyone else but yourselves....but you were the instigators of it all....
I'm gonna tell you a story and it might lose some of its meaning translated to english but the general point is there...
A bird and a fox are sitting on a plane together...
The bird presses the button to call the stewardess over and the stewardess comes...when she arrives they giggle and laugh and the stewardess takes the joke on the chin and walks away saying "kids will be kids"...
The bird presses the button again and the stewardess comes over and they both laugh hysterically at having made the poor stewardess come all the way to them for no reason and the stewardess walks away again....
the third time the fox decides he'd like to try and join in the birds tom-foolery and presses the button....the stewardess comes over, having had enough of the two of them and opens the door and kicks them out of the plane....
As they are both falling at an alarmingly accelerating rate the fox asks "what now?"
so the bird replies "use your wings and fly"
and the fox replies "but i dont have any wings"
the bird looks dissappointingly and says "If you don't have wings, and you can't fly, why the hell do u f**k around on a plane in flight?"
You need to get some facts straight.
EOKA B was a terrorist organisation.
The Junta was a military dictatorship.
To actually state that these two fuck-ups represented the GCs and that the GCs bought this on themselves is nothing but Turkish propaganda.
