Which I fully endorse and since my wife as well as myself are Cypriots perhaps you Pantheman will have the decency to allow me to have my opinion.
Go ahead Bananiot, i never said you couldn't. If you had read my post carefully, i was implying that TCs had a right of say regarding anything that happens in cyprus. I was responding to cymart, because he has recently come on stream to stir things (aka shit stirrer) and then he wants to sell up and go. Well he should go now, why does he need to spoil it for the rest of us first?
We all have opinions, and rightly so, but i cannot stomach people like cymart that have NO interest in my country but only to be able to sellup his GC wifes property so he can go. That is not an opinion, that is the act of treason, you chose to live in cyprus and now you want to harm the very country you are in so YOU can get back what you think you will get from varosha, sell up and leave.
Has it ever occured to you (cymart) that even if there was such an angreement, there is nothing to say that Turkey would stick to her side of the bargain. She has shown time and time again that she cannot be trusted and there is no one that can force her neither. You are living in a dream world.
And, I would also point out that the statement made earlier could easily be read thus :
The only people who short-sightedly support partition are mis-guided nationalists who have a pathological hatred of Greece and even the Greek Cypriots,and equally obnoxious groups such as those who have made millions since 1974 and are against any change in the status-quo because they believe it will affect their economic interests!
So you see this works both ways right? And do you now endorse this as well?
Anyway, bananiot, no one is stopping you express your opinion.
