Good luck to them. At least the North of Cyprus will be in the news again and maybe people will start asking questions as to why nobody ever wants to talk about it - including the USA!!!

I see US involvement as good news.

It will hopefully bang some simpleminded heads together.

I have been on the road nearly all day today and the military are moving vehicles and tanks all over the place. Never seen so much activity, maybe we'll be able to get to the South coast soon without having to stop.

Oh dear is right. As if the US isn't meddling in every other place in the world... and now this! WTH. What do they think this will do, intimidate Erdogan? Maybe it's just a coincidence and they are in the region to beef up their presence due to the increasing problems in Ghutta, Syria.

It's an annual exercise they have been doing with Israel for the past five years or so. Nothing to do with Exxon. I read this somewhere today.
