We refuse to forget the Turkish Crimes committed by Turkish invasion on 20th July 1974. Our sacred Hellenic land has been under barbaric Turkish occupation for too long. Every patriotic Hellene who cannot forget and will not forget Turkey’s Crimes against Hellenic people should participate.

In the words of Cypriot student activist Paris Stylianides:” We have reached melting point. Hellenism is striving to survive on this island…”

Η ΚΥΠΡΟΣ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΗ ΚΑΙ ΟΧΙ ΤΟΥΡΚΙΚΗ ΓΙΑ ΣΥΝΕΤΑΙΡΙΣΜΟ ΜΕ ΤΟ 18%

Νομίζω η πιο κάτω ξεκάθαρη ιστορική επιβεβαίωση της Ελληνικότητας της Κύπρου μας, που βρήκα στην ιστοσελίδα του Βρετ. Υπ. ΄Αμυνας και που κυκλοφόρησα το 2006 (και την  είχε αναρτήσει και ο κ.Χάρης Κυριακίδης στην αξιόλογη ιστοσελίδα του κρίμα που έμεινε στάσιμη), θα πρέπει να προβάλλεται παντού και πάντοτε.  Ως ένα μπούμεραγκ στην διαστρεύλωση που επιχειρούν οι ίδιοι οι Βρετανοί, οι υποτελείς τους δικοί μας, οι ανεγκέφαλοι και ανιστόρητοι δικοί μας και ξένοι και κυρίως οι υπεύθυνοι της Παιδείας και εκείνοι οι λεγόμενοι εκπαιδευτικοί που εργολαβικά δουλεύουν για την πλαστογράφηση της Ιστορίας μας. Και βέβαια οι συγγραφείς του τερατουργήματος Ανάν/Χάνει μεταξύ των οποίων και δικοί μας, αλλά, και ο σημερινός πρόεδρος Δημήτρης Χριστόφιας μαζί με τις επιτροπές του που διαπραγματεύονται δίχως όρους εντολής την διάλυση της Κυπριακής Δημοκρατίας και τον συνεταιρισμό με το 18% των Τουρκοκυπρίων για εξυπηρέτηση των τουρκικών συμφερόντων.

Cyprus History
Few countries can trace the course of their history over 10,000 years, but in approximately 8,000 BC the island of Cyprus was already inhabited and going through its Neolithic Age. Of all the momentous events that were to sweep the country through the next few thousand years, one of the most crucial was the discovery of copper – or Kuprum in Latin – the mineral which took its name from “Kypros”, the Greek name of Cyprus, and generated untold wealth.
The island’s strategic position, its copper deposits and its timber attracted the first Greeks who came to the island over 3,000 years ago at the end of the Trojan wars.  They settled down, bringing in with them and establishing the Greek identity.
Over the centuries Cyprus came under the sway of various rulers including the Egyptians. Assyrians, Persians, the successors to Alexander the Great and the Romans, before Cyprus became part of the Byzantine Empire.  Later came the Crusaders, the Frankish Lusignans and Venetians, Ottomans and British.
Cyprus gained its independence in 1960, for the first time in 3,500 years, but the Greek identity of language and culture has been retained.

Η πλέον κλασική αντίφαση στα χρονικά της αγγλικής πολιτικής.
Παρόλη  την φιλοτουρκική και λυσσαλέα ανθελληνική πολιτική του Βρετ. Υπουργείου Εξωτερικών και Κοινοπολιτείας,  στην ιστοσελίδα του Βρετ. Υπουργείου Άμυνας (2006)  υπογραμμίζεται,  με τον πλέον ξεκάθαρο τρόπο η Ελληνικότητα της νήσου Κύπρος.

Η ΚΥΠΡΟΣ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΗ (ΥΠΟΥΡΓΕΙΟ ΑΜ. ΑΓΓΛΙΑΣ)

ΑΠΑΝΤΗΣΗ ΣΤΟΥΣ ΕΡΑΣΤΕΣ ΤΗΣ ΑΠΟΕΛΛΗΝΟΠΟΙΗΣΗΣ ΤΗΣ ΚΥΠΡΟΥ
ΑΠΟ ΤΟΝ ΙΣΤΟΧΩΡΟ ΤΟΥ ΒΡΕΤΑΝΙΚΟΥ ΥΠΟΥΡΓΕΙΟΥ ΑΜΥΝΑΣ
