Procrustes was famed for stretching or cutting bits off his victims to make them fit in to his bed.

Are we attempting a Procrustean policy with GCs and TCs to force uniformity between them so that they can fit together on Cyprus regardless of their natural variations and individuality?

Did he ever ponder the possibility of two beds???

Ever heard of... "Till death do us part" ?

Yeah! A family always fighting and a racist father that thought he knew everything but knew nout!

Do not underestimate us VP,

both Greek and Turkish Cypriots are a LOT more European than the British, the Portuguese and the Bulgarians. You would be surprised how much we have in comon with let's say the people in southern France, a lot more than the the British have!

GCs are like the donkeys that roam freely in the Karpaz and a real European is more like the full bred race horses we see at racing meetings around the world. Although you have managed to get the EU to agree that you look like a horse in shape and get a saddle on your back does not mean you have become a race horse or will win any races. The mediterranean mentality is firey and stubborn GCs can not compromise or allow others to progress, they have a deep jealous streak, devious beyond belief and are very very materialistic, their money comes before their lives and from that you can work out exacly their mentality, these are some of the reasons why GCs and TCs will never be Europeans.

Viewpoint you have a really warped outlook.

The only correct statement you have made is that TCs will never be European. That stands to reason, they came from very far away and are still carrying their Oriental genes with them.

However, the GCs are categorically European and it really BUGS you. You have painted a glowing picture of Europeans as race-horses in order to draw a metaphor with the Cyprus donkey. Pathetic nursery allegory.

Another example of cunning Turks trying to rewrite History and distort natural facts.

No one is saying anyone is better than anyone else, so grow up! Accept we're different i.e. not the same.

But it's by our ACTIONS that we should be judged . . . and that VP is where Turkey lets you down!

Believe whatever you wish doesnt really bother me I know what I am and am very happy with it, you on the other hand are trying to be something you can never be and that is a race horse.

I have no pangs of guilt for my Greek NOR my Cypriot heritage. Any past wrongs have been righted by our insistence on not invading our neighbours to the present day and to practice true Democracy.

This of course sidesteps the period of 1963 to 74 once again
