I have found this site to be a very useful source of information on Cyprus and its history. It's no longer available. This message comes up :- cyprus-conflict.net expired on 10/17/2015 and is pending renewal or deletion.

Does anyone have any idea as to how it can be renewed or saved?

Wasn't that GR's site??

This has happened before (domain lapsed) but in the past in due course it has be put back in place. Hopefully this will happen again this time.

In the mean time you can access it via the 'wayback' project that takes historic snapshots of websites here

No

It is indeed a useful resource - one of the best out there.

Here is a link for you Jerry, relevant to our recent discussions

Oh yes, it was one of yours Erolz wasn't it. And you just threw in that link for good measure, such propaganda spreading is Lords job.

It is not my site. It is recognised widely as one of the best resources on the internet with regards to the cyprus problem. Still we would not want the truth to get in the way of your bigotry would we B25 - you have never allowed it to do such before so why start now ?

In the vain hope that you might have any interest in who created this site and why you could try the following link

That's a joint project between Erol and me...

Thank you for the link to Cyprus-Conflict.
Here's one for you, possibly more relevant since it was 1953.

There were also signs, according to diplomatic sources at least, that Cypriot opinion had begun to show 'a surprising lack of sincere interest' in Enosis, Wagner, the US Consul, continued to speak of a, however latent, constitutionalist current of opinion. In October 1953, he ' appeared to believe that a timely British offer might induce a sufficient number of influential Cypriots to accept it 'out of political desperation or in self-interest'." Georgios Seferiadis, Greek Ambassador in Beirut, confirms that this prospect deeply concerned the Archbishop. After meeting with Makarios on 7 November, he noted in his diary that 'the Ethnarchy, despite its best efforts, cannot keep people's feeling on its side. The fear was that the prolongation of the present regime might prejudice the outcome of a plebiscite, even if it was held after two or three years.' In view of all this, Seferiadis concluded, 'something had to be done soon'.
Makarios' first reaction was to try to galvanise the faithful with ever more combative rhetoric.
