The simple truth is that we will never really know what happened. Only foolish people will believe what the governements/media tell them about the cause.

I suggest that everyone looks at a map of Cyprus and where it is located in the world. Use your own mind and don't listen to the drivel from the governments/media.

A little info:

http://www.worldatlas.com/webimage/countrys/europe/cy.htm

"Cyprus, a onetime Greek colony and the site of many military incursions over the centuries, is still today, an island in conflict between two opposing factions.

The southern part of this Mediterranean island (the Greek Area) is called the Republic of Cyprus, and is controlled by the officially recognized Cyprus government.

About one-third of Cyprus is occupied by Turkey, and they call it the Republic of Northern Cyprus. That claim is not recognized by the United Nations, or any other country.

Because of a Turkish invasion in 1974, the United Nation's established a buffer zone (colored gray), and that zone runs through the middle of the island, dissecting the capital city of Nicosia."
