"Bellapais, the Greek Cyroot village made famous by Laurence Durrell's 'Bitter Lemons', is no longer Greek: two weeks ago its last seven Greek inhabitants gave up the struggle against the Turkish squeeze. With their departure the number of Greek Cypriots in the entire Kyrenia district of northern Cyprus is now fewer that 30. Because of this, the Turkish authorities say that the United Nations force in Cyprus no longer needs a post in that area".

True. Majority of TCs do not deny these. What GC and Greek nationalists did to TCs, same done by TC and Turkis nationalists to GCs.

UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL (upi), USA, 23.07.1974
"...the Greeks killed many women and children in Limassol. I have seen the bodies of 20 children lying on the road...some were wounded and crying...the Greek soldiers are waiting for their turn to enter in the Turkish homes and kill the women..."

This guy likes posting greek propoganda, but that is the actions of someone trying to tear the forum up by pouring this poison all over the forum.

Old news designed to bring up nationalistic tendencies like the EOKA men done back at the core of the cyprus problem.
