    You don’t understand anything about geopolitics or history. You present an opinion piece from the guardian as some proof of something

    You have a lot to learn.

      It’s kind of disrespectful that you’re not only being incredibly patronizing, but you clearly have not even read the article.

        Again, lol, from your source. Try reading it yourself!

        Then last month, a leading historian quoted in the piece, André Gerolymatos, held a conference in British Columbia on the issue, inviting one of the co-authors of the piece and some of the academics who had protested to the paper. When it was over, he sent me his analysis, based, he said, on British and American archival sources as well as memoirs and secondary accounts.

        He wrote: “Did the British open fire on the demonstrators on 3 December 1944? The answer is no

          I’m honestly not sure if you’re just incapable of reading, but that’s not what I posted. It’s not even the same URL you fucking dolt.

          YOU are posting an opinion piece that was written in response to the well researched article written by Ed Vulliamy and Helena Smith.

          They put a link the the opinion response piece you’re referring to in that article out of journalistic integrity.

          So either you’re purposely attempting to conflate the two articles and make the well researched, historically accurate article that I posted out to be some bullshit opinion piece, or you literally cannot read.

          So please, I beg of you. READ THE ARTICLE THAT I POSTED YOU FUCKING COWARD.

            JFC🙂‍↕️🤦‍♂️. Get a grip mate. You had a day to think about this. Your article is not a piece of peer reviewed history. It was rebutted by greek historians, why would they support a British pov? Are you actually retarded?
