Viewpoint, I think many TC's may beg to differ with you. You seem to have a very BIG chip on your shoulder. A constructive approach to solving our problems is needed and it needs cool heads (which in my opinion you don't have) and a realisation that Cyprus is too small a place to be divided in the long run.
Placing your faith in Turkey and division will eventually lead to zero TC's living in Cyprus. TC's have more in common with GC's than they do with Turks, both genetically and in way of life. You may wish to deny this but at the end of the day that is the truth.
Could you kindly try and clarify the chip on the shoulder comment???Im interested to read your comments and if construcitve take them on board.
I used to think like you as well before the boarders were opened up but after visiting the south and meeting GCs, listening to them concerning their views just like you guys on the forum add to this the way your GC administation view TCs, I came to the conclusion that NO these people cannot agree anything, their arguments fears concerns wants demands are so far apart there is noway they can agree on a solution that both sides can commit to even if you gave them 1000 years. You must all see this to you just choose to close your eyes to these facts?? or is it the simple fact you dont want to concede as it is viewed as a form of failure.
Over the last year I have not read seen or heard anything concerning the possiblity of us agreeing on anything that will actually work. With all due respects who I put my faith in is really my business dont you think? Plus in Turkish there is a saying both ends of the stick are shitty.
I apologise for being so pesimistic but I truly feel that given the current climate and current developments recognition of partition for return of land is the only way to bring this who issue to an end.
