Yesterday, I was prophetic when I wrote the third message in this link. I make no apologies for 'intellectually retarded'; it applies to this thread.

The fires are a tragedy and I'm sure all of us here in Cyprus, on both sides of the Green Line, offer our sympathy to the Greek people, helpless though we may be to give them physical aid. I can feel for them, as we had a bad fire in this village just over 2 weeks ago, happily without loss of life and not too much damage to physical property, but to see the flames close to ones property is frightening. Speaking selfishly, the strong wind at that time fortunately blew the fire away from us, but others were not so lucky. Whatever, we had some bad moments and can sympathise with the survivors of this horrible inferno in Greece and those who are courageous enough to fight it incessantly, without personal thought for their own comfort and safety.

Lena, Basically the fact he turned the thread again to GC against TC freaked me out and he shall face my harrasement just for that.He can find a playground somewhere else.

I am not going to reply back...you are a grown up i think...do as you wish. I have better things to do that preaching you and if I do it i wont be polite any more.

Hope this tragedy will come to an end today.

While you two are buggering about my throat is choked with fumes and particles from the fire.

If nothing else this inane argument shows that Cypriots are Greeks, arguing is the number one hobby of the nation! It is going on now on every single TV and radio channel too, so why not in a forum like this! THis reminds me of a description of Greeks written by Cicero when he visited Greece in 70 (?) BC. We were just as bad then!

Then do it via PM. As Lena said, many parents, children and other human beings lost their lives in the great tragedy. Thousands have lost their homes, lost their livlihood, everything they have ever worked for. This isn't about nationalities or politics, its about everyone pulling together to help those affected.

I seriously hope that Admin/Mods delete or split the topics away from this thread. I think certain members here need to take a long hard look at themselves, at their behaviour here.

For the sake of those in mourning over loved ones, for the sake of those affected by this tragedy, please, give it a rest.

Nikitas you are right.The anger is too much and most of us burst at the slightest thing.Anyway it is now verified that USA and Russia are now sending significant power

[SN]

Nikitas are you somewhere in the south of Athens?Here in the center it is all clear now.Until late last night the smoke was unbearable.

[LENA]

The number of dead people is now 53 according to the news!

Nikita hope you are doing well

I have seen what the fire done to our mountains is really sad...the area still smell burn after two months and they start cutting down the trees which that make it look even worst among some burned houses
