I am not an Ottoman and niether were the people that your murderers butchered in accordance to the Akritas Plan.
So when TCs dropped from the sky to Cyprus?
You butchered 10s of thousands of Greek Cypriots, and oppressed us for centuries. In fact you continue doing so now as well. In fact you have almost never stopped committing crimes against us since the day you set your foot on this island, and yet you pretend to be the victim because you had a few 100s of victims as well and you suffered for a decade, a drop in the ocean compared to the suffering you caused and you continue to cause to us.
hat you think my community having an equal (or indeed any effective) voice along with yours as a community on such fundamental decision as will my homeland exists as a state at all, will it be given to a foreign (to me and my community) state to be run by foreigners, what my nationality will be and the such , is exactly the problem. Your 'version' of democracy says my community can have no such say in these matters and your can and will decided them not just for your own community but mine as well. Sorry Piratis that is not 'democracy' to me at all and as long as you inisit it is the only means of achieving democracy within Cyprus, we will remain divided on this fundamental issue.
Let me be equally clear. If your community had ever shown any desire or ability to also consider my communities wishes in how our shared homeland will move into the future on the basis that it belongs to both of us as communites and both as communites should have an effective voice and not to try and force its ethnic communal will on mine using amongst other things violence , deception and illegality under the guise of 'democracy' and 'self determination' (of GC to determine the future of TC) then I would be happy with a more 'typical' form of government. It is because your community DID do these things that these things are fundamental issues for me.
Your community can have what every other minority has in every other democratic country in the world. In fact with my proposals for proportionate representation you would have way more than most other minorities.
My community "DID" to you, way less than what you did to us, so I don't see how you can use that as an excuse. As if the Kurds and the Turks in Turkey, or the Bulgarians and the Turks in Bulgaria, or the Blacks and Whites in the USA etc etc never had a conflict with each other and Cyprus is the only exception.
I will repeat to you the definition of democracy, as given from the most known, and also probably most multi-ethnic democracy in the world (with its own share of problems between its communities):
These elements define the fundamental elements of all modern democracies, no matter how varied in history, culture, and economy. Despite their enormous differences as nations and societies, the essential elements of constitutional government--majority rule coupled with individual and minority rights, and the rule of law--can be found in Canada and Costa Rica, France and Botswana, Japan and India.
