If you have just an ounce of interest for the welfare of Cypriots and a peaceful solution to our problem you will begin by being a T/C not an Anatolian Turk.

In this and some other posts, you consistently attack Anatolia Turks and try to flatter TCs. I am a TC, born and raised in Cyprus and my parents, grandparents are so aswell ... Your similar remarks kind of begs the following questions:

1) Where did every Turkish Cypriot at some point in history come to Cyprus from? -Anatolia
2) When did the Turkish Cypriots start coming to Cyprus- After the their empire in Anatolia gained control in Cyprus
3) Under whose rule has the Turkish Cypriots lived in Cyprus between the time they arrived to the begining of British rule? - Anatolia
4) Whose traditions, language, ethnicity, and culture they preserved so jealously and fully practice today? - Anatolia
5) The proximity of the two mainlands to Cyprus is 40miles and 600 miles. Which is 40 miles off the shores of Girne? - Anatolia

And I am not even going to get started with the heroic deeds of that Anatolia you so despise has done for us against GC aggression in the Cyprus conflict. You belittling Anatolia is belittling TCs. You belittling the ethnicity, customs, traditions and culture of Anatolia is belittling the ethnicity, customs, traditions and culture of TCs. You are not making friends amongst us as you praise TCs and attack Anatolia. Just a dip note...

Only just spotted your brilliantly written post aimed no doubt at those T/Cs who are sick to the bone with the Anatolian Turk taking over part of their country. Since you mentioned 1571 , let me remind you that I do not consider the T/Cs anything other than Turkish Cypriots with the emphasis on Cypriot. You have made some good constructive posts in the past , you are however letting yourself down miserably by calling your self an Anatolian Turk. Does this mean that you consider the T/Cs not to be Cypriots but Anatolian Turks ?
Which culture do the T/C have in Cyprus , would you say that of Anatolia or that of Cyprus. You have to judge my views based on my passionate commitment to my land , that of Cyprus , NOT GREECE NOT ANATOLIA But Cyprus. I ask you are you Cypriot enough to embrace the identity of your compatriots or have you sold your soul to a foreign invader.

As far as your comments on " my denegrating the Anatolian customs , I would love to see in which of my posts did I do so , further more you must by now now that I do not have much time for either Greece or Turkey , since I consider these two nations to have been the major driving force in so much conflict and suffering in Cyprus. At the end of May I shall visit Cyprus for a week , I aim to visit a small cluster of T/C villages in Paphos , one being the village of Kios , Isginjo in Turkish I believe , where a true Turkish Cypriot was born and was forced with his parents to run for their lives during those horrid years of 63-64. I want to kiss the ground where this T/C was born and raised , about 5 miles away from where I was born , so as you can see the proximity is a lot less than the 40 or so miles from Anatolia or 600 from Greece.

I suppose you also find my well posted ambition to see a T/C as the president of the whole of Cyprus , dedicated to the welfare of all Cypriots as condescending and insulting . Let me once again clarify where I stand.
All Cypriots are my compatriots , I do not see majorities or minorities , I'm a realist to know that just as we have in the UK , English , Scottish , Welsh etc etc , we also have in Cyprus G/Cs T/Cs Armenian Cypriots and British Cypriots. The true Cypriots want to be part of this land not of some foreign land that 500 years invaded , not as you say gained control , companies gain control , but nations entering by force into the territories of another nation are generally known as invaders.

I am not calling myself an Anatolian Turk. If you read my post I proudly stated to be a TC. I am simply stating that, Anatolia is where all TCs came to Cyprus from at some point in history and today have many in common with; analogous to GCs with Greece. Denying this is insane for both parties, GCs and TCs. Neither, the GCs or the TCs are local inhabitants of Cyprus. Both arrived afterwards. Hence, I naturally find it offensive of you to belittle Anatolia, Anatolians and their ethnicity. You asked:

As far as your comments on " my denegrating the Anatolian customs , I would love to see in which of my posts did I do so

Here you go:

Anatolian citizens might find such lurid exhibitionism attractive in the same fashion cannibals were fascinated by a piece of glass with reflective properties such as a mirror. The rather civilized T/Cs ought to make it known to their leadership that such monstrosities are not a trade mark associated with the indigenous population.

cut the crap mutaga. this is the stupiest comment of all times. just becaue of assimilation it doesn't mean the gcs weren't the original inhabitants of cyprus today. just because you might not feel part of it, it does not give you the right to put everyone in the same boat to justify your crap.

you feel you came from anatolia then go the fuck back and feel what ever you wanna feel.

[Get Real!]

That's interesting... so who do you suppose are the indigenous inhabitants of Cyprus professor Dufus... the Vietnamese?

[pitsilos]

don't expect mutaga to come back straight away before he brushes up on is anatolian history,

ps mutaga, you haven't got slanty eyes and a little donger by any chance? coz if you haven't, the chances are, you are living in denial

And further more cyprus is for any human like any other place in the world .
