YOU BRITISH PIECE OF SH*T!
You go into someone else's country and because they don't want you there, they enable a group of brave freedom fighters to do whatever they can to get you out - but you don't like it.
You have the might of the British army, the might of the Turk army, the Gay Wolves being funded by the Turk government against a handful of brave Greek Cypriot men and you complain about the only way these brave men could fight this war! How do you expect them to fight and get rid of the more powerful invaders? Do you condemn the Viet Cong? Do you condemn the IRA? Do you condemn the mujahideen (though I suspect you were on their side in the 1980's when they were repelling the Russians)? Do you condemn the Belgian, French, Dutch resistances/freedom fighters of WWII? Your dirty, two-faced double-standards are appalling and the reason why you and the other mighty powers are despised around the world.
People like you and the Greek Cypriot traitors should all hang your heads in shame.
