Jerry wrote:Barouti, STUD has given three references to support the claim that Britain wanted to stop the Turkish invasion. The report in the Independent is quite detailed. Perhaps you can offer some evidence that Britain supported the invasion instead of expecting us to believe your view. Britain had no reason to "assure you keep the bases", who was going to take them away, the National Guard?
Evidence please.

British oppression against the indigenous Greek majority.
If the British occupation administration really gave a shit what the majority wanted then there wouldn't have been a struggle for independence. The fact is not only did the British oppress the Greek majority, denied them self-determination, but also recruited the Turks to assist them in oppressing the majority. Especially after the Brits and Frogs were humiliated during the Suez Crisis of '56, your Majesty's empire (or ever what was left of it) wanted to have a base facing the Mid-East and Cyprus was it. Hence why your fought your dirty war against the heroes of EOKA. This is not rocket science, GR jnr. Fact is you supported the Turkish invasion of 1974 because it's the British thing, divide and rule...Divide the island and you can keep your so-called "sovereign" bases indefinitely. I dont know who you are Jerry. Dont know if you're one of those self-loathing Greek "neo-kypreoi" or just another British interloper, though you lean to the latter (and if u are Greek then tote ante gamisou! re prodoti!!). Mt Limey provided jack shit apart from that he is full of shit, which I realised anyway. And talking about jack wasn't it Jack Straw who recently stated Cyprus should be divided. That's my evidence you limy piece of shit. Hey look, the American's just threw you a stick. Be their good little lap dog and go fetch it.
