How the hell can you take everything that has happened and just dismiss it and then tell me that no-one feels hate against me. What a crock of shit. You seem to live your life like it is ground hog day and are surprised at what happens when the same thing happened yesterday. You can dismiss my fears all you like but they are there and I am the one that has to deal with them.
"No one cares about how I live my life"...Now that is the funniest thing I have heard in years What is the Cyprob then Bir. If it wasn't for the fact that every little detail is what determines how I live my life then the world would be this fictitious place that you seem to think it is. Have you lent any one more money recently...Did you bother to sign and get get signed, a proper contract...No! explains everything. I want my future ensured and not left in the hands of fate and your mamby pamby ideals and the notion that all will be well in the end. We have a president of an illegally formed country that was not only an EOKA terrorist but the author of the Akritas Plan which put him in power in the first place. The long term strategy that was the Akritas Plan has worked and you want to swallow it hook line and sinker but not having enough you are taking the whole rod down your throat. Perhaps when Hitler walked into Poland we should not have worried...France was just a matter of time and the we should have said "No Problem. Lets be friends".
You need to subscribe to another channel other than the Disney Chanel Bir. We do not live in brightly coloured houses with the only worry being "Which fuzzy puppet monster took the cookie". We have real problems to solve. We know who took the cookie but you just want to say "Its fine" while your children's stomachs grumble an d the monster eats the cookie noisily in front of them. We live in the real world my friend in which people are people and not the fictitious love in that you seem to think exists. Ask the GCs to guarantee my rights and then when you get that on paper we can talk but until then we will take the only alternative left to us. They don't want to talk along lines of any other deal except for a total surrender to an illegal state and you tell me that is ok! Get some deals going before you condemn me for getting on with my life after 40 years of no movement. For gods sake...what the hell is wrong with you
Zan..I know my opinions frustrate you sometimes,but just spare a thought about what yours are doing to me??? You and some others are stuck well and truly in a time warp,mate...You cannot see what the world has come to,let alone see what it will be like in 100 years from now...
My option for Cyprus offers the only chance we have of surviving into the next century as Cypriots...If we drop this obsession with our Turkishness" and our "Greekness" and embrace each other as Cypriots in a united fully functioning democratic Republic we might just be able to hold the great globalisation tide back long enough to accertain our survival in the foreseeable future as a distinct nation...
But if we insist on hanging onto the past animosity,bitterness and hatred,which any solution other than full reunification will cement into our hearts and minds forever,we are condemning the future generations to the same cathastrophy we went through...So my formula is double osmosis,the merging of the TCs and GCs into one people,one nation of Cypriots...In a democratic republic which respects human rights and equal opportunity principles...A nation where the notions of "majority" or "minority" do not exist...Only people from different ethnic backgrounds living in respect and harmony...With religion playing less and less an influence on the minds of TCs and GCs,your faith should be no concern of anyone,between you and your God...In my Republic everyone will speak at least 3 languages...Everyone will be proud of our common ancestry :the Great philosophers and warriors of ancient Greece and the Great warriors and philosophers of the East like Mevlana Celaleddin Rumi,Pir Sultan Aptal,Yunus Emre,Karacaoglan, Hodja Nasreddin,Hafiz,Omar Khayyam etc etc...Cypriots will be the most tolerant and most civilised nation in the whole universe...Now isn't that something to strive for>>>????
