British atrocities in Cyprus 1955 -1959

The whole world is full of horrible demonstrations of ruthless extermination of Native people by the British Monarchy.
That is why they have bought all Western MSM: to hide their sins or dump them on America.

Rot in pieces old witch , your father was named "Digenis"

it's nothing new

you got what you wanted then got what you deserved. idiot Cypriots.

Interesting collection oh photos.
I think you would reach a much wider audience if you gave more background information and added more context.
Audio narration would be preferable.

Are you aware that EOKA were terrorists?

SADISTS!

Not a single source

UTTER BOLLOX.. My dad was there ... your information is incorrect.. The terroism and bombing of innocent civilians and service people was a terriost war... The British met force with force...
Check the British Grave Yard that still apparent in Parts of Cyprus. Another Anti British woke campaigner. Its funny how the Cypriots Love the Service brits in the winter to spend thier money in the bars and resturants.. 'In August 1960 Cyprus became a republic but, in the following decades, it was plagued with violence between the Greek and Turkish communities. In 1974 a Greek military coup, which aimed to unite the island with mainland Greece, led to a Turkish invasion and the division of the island between Turkish Northern Cyprus and the Greek Cypriot Republic of Cyprus. Cyprus remains divided to this day.'

Nice photo collection, but you haven’t got an awful lot of evidence of British Atrocities. EOKA was pretty much a fascist organisation, and forcing people to join their cause out of fear of what EOKA might do to them. And treated the Turkish population on Cyprus absolutely horribly before and after Independence from the British. That’s why Turkey invaded Cyprus in 1974 to protect its people from the Greek Fascists. And I would also like the point out that EOKA killed hundreds of more British personnel than what the British killed in the emergency. I admit that the British hadn’t done the best of things in it’s history. But I thought they acted pretty reasonably in Cyprus compared to Malaya and Kenya.

Same as the nazis? No. And I'm greek

WOT A lot of ROT. Believe this and you believe enything...

Μέσα σε 5μιση λεπτά ανέβασες το τη τράβηξαν οι Κύπριοι από τα στρατεύματα κατοχής,κανονικό απαρχάϊντ,για να θυμούνται οι μεγάλοι και να μαθαίνουν οι νέοι,επίσης πάντα διαφωνώ με μουσική υπόκρουση αλλά η μουσική που διάλεξες είναι ωραία.
Δυστυχώς η Τσίπρον βρίσκεται σε τέτοιο σημείο που ελέγχει την Μ.Ανατολή και το χαμηλό υπογάστρειον(αυτή την λέξη την έγραψα σωστά?)της Τουρκίας...οι Άγγλοι όταν έγινε η μοιρασιά μετά την άλωση του 1204 την πήραν σαν δώρο και μετά την πούλησαν για μερές χιλιάδες χρυσά νομίσματα στους Βενετούς...επίσης ψάχνω στοιχεία για την βάση τους στο νησί κάτι που δεν έχει η πλατφόρμα,αλλά νομίζω πως η έκταση της βάσης είναι αρκετά μεγάλη και είναι περίπου το 2-4% του νησιού...βέβαια οι Κύπριοι σαν αντάλλαγμα πήραν το δικαίωμα να πηγαίνουν να σπουδάζουν στην Αγγλία κ.α προνόμια,επίσης κράτησαν την οδήγηση το τιμόνι να είναι δεξιά και τέλος για το κίνημα που έκανα οι Άγγλοι βοήθησαν στην επέμβαση του Αττίλα...αυτή είναι η γνώμη μου,πάλι εύγε για το ανέβασμα.

I served in an LAD during the Cypriot troubles and saw British troops using crowd control methods but never atrocities. The worst were the Greek EOKA thugs who hit upon both British troops and Turkish Cypriots.
Sure, things got a tad heated now and then but the situation was nowhere near as bad as the German occupation of Greece. This video was made by a misinformed person. Or a deluded one.

Largely ridiculous propaganda. I was there 1957-1959 and do remember the day British soldiers rounded up our male, adult Greek neighbours in Famagusta after two British Army wives were shot in the back while out shopping - one died. That was how EOKA operated. Of course the soldiers were angry and no doubt brutal. I also remember the EOKA shooting of a bank manager while taking his little boy for a walk. No one would help him or the little boy. The father, a New Zealander, bled to death in the street. Worse still, the burning to death of a Greek man by EOKA. He was tied to a lamp post. I won't even get into the Greek/Turkish atrocities. Let's try to be objective and historically correct about what happened in Cyprus.

EOKA atrocities are well documented as is British fulfillment of requests by thew Greek Government to combat EOKA terrorism. This video is a contrived piece lackign in any sources or documentation. It is full of distortions and outright lies. this would make the creator a liar himself. The 5 or 6 minutes I spent watching this piece of trash is time I can never get back nor did I get value for it. It's Ok, no need to ban me from your channel I ban myself you clearly lack a historical experience and a sense of ethics. Thumbs down.

A very biased video ???

Makarios had a great deal to answer for in this conflict. A wolf in sheep’s clothing.

👍👍

This is what happens when a nation decides for the fate of another. The British would say that they came as peacemakers. My question is , who asked you for your help to go anywhere for any reason? As soon as they went to Cyprus, the greatest troubles started on the island. The Greeks were the majority and the Turks the minority, but they were living as neighbors in peace. The British of course never came over for a cup of tea...They came as troublemakers. Not as peacemakers. Sorry but anyone who knows history knows about the British obsession for colonies. And we all know in all cases all around the world how "peacefully" the British make their colonies ... It s a joke if anyone believes that when the army is on a land, it comes for good reasons. EVAGORAS PALLIKARIDIS 19 YEAR OLD BOY WAS IMPRISONED , TORTURED, AND FINALLY HANGED by the British royal military forces and under the signature of the queen Elizabeth the 2nd on the 14th March 1957 . He was the youngest Greek Cypriot fighter in that war among many many others. The British lost in that war, and in 1960, Cyprus was announced an independent country. In 1974, the British allowed the Turks to invade the northern part of Cyprus. Educate yourself, and if you want to know the historical facts, instead of moaning on the comment section, open a book, or go on the internet to find all the information.

british atrocities,the greeks were killing off duty soldiers,and cyprus was ceded to britain by turkey,so britain could have expelled all the greeks as it was british territory,and the greeks were stupid enough to also discriminate against the turks,and now a portion of the island is part of turkey,wasnt a lot of thinking going on by the greek cypriots they made a right mess of it

Total cobblers 🤬

False picture showing Gurkha soldiers, none were deployed there🤷🏻‍♂️

I spent 2.3/4 years there during the troubles and can assure you this just didn’t happen. Brian Taylor.

The way of cinematographic expression and recording is done with objectivity and accuracy in the events, with the aim of highlighting the historical reality. Ιt is realistic and does not idealize situations at all, it maintains a neutral attitude without influencing the viewer's point of view. Finally, the use of correct speech and logic to explain and comment on the analysis of social, economic and religious issues is noteworthy. My purpose is not to present racist stereotypes and religious disputes but to present reality as it is. All offensive comments will be deleted and offenders will be kicked from my channel ❤
