Recently the Turks created a video clip where they are calling the top athlete of Cyprus and possibly the whole region as "racist" and "thug" because he said what we all say: Turks out of Cyprus!

Not only there is nothing "racist" to demand the freedom of your country from foreign occupation, not only this is in accordance with international law and UN resolutions but the most funny thing is that those that made these accusations are the most disgusting racists that ever existed on the planet since Hitler. These are the people who ethnically cleansed most Cypriots from their own homeland, imported Turks in their place, and then declared our land as supposedly being Turkish!

It is obvious that the Turks were trying to destruct our athlete from his effort. The reason they did this, apart from their usual hate for anything Greek, is simple: envy.

Turkey is a country of 70 million people but in their history they have very little achievements to show apart from conquering foreign lands and performing genocides and ethnic cleanings against other nations.

I don't blame them for being jealous of the Greek civilization, but recently they started to envy the Greek and Cypriot sporting achievements as well. Greece won the Euro in Football and Basketball, and recently managed to finish on top of Turkey in the qualifications for the next Euro. Most importantly the top athlete of the whole region is a Cypriot, and this what bothers them the most.

I was totally disgusted to see the hateful messages of the Turks against our athlete. I could not imagine that their envy could reach such heights but it apparently did.

I would like to congratulate Marcos Baghdatis for being the top Cypriot athlete of all times. I would also like to thank him for his love and devotion to our island. Marcos, who has a non-Cypriot father, is a true and genuine Cypriot that has our respect now, and we will always remember his achievements and honor him even when his time will be long gone.

I partly agree, as no-one likes a foreign occupation, though it is a bit dodgy, as such chants imply that all turks, including the minority, should leave.

This is ridiculous, as historically, Turk Cyps have lived in Cyprus for hundreds and hundreds of years and have a place there.

You should know that, Piratis. Or are you being deliberately inflammatory?

Nobody said that Turkish Cypriots should leave. Who should leave are the Turks, and Turks in Cyprus are the Turkish army which is illegally occupying our lands and the Turkish Settlers who were brought illegally to Cyprus in violation to the Geneva convention.

Here you go spreading lies again, the Turks did not create that video you stupid idiot, it was Greek BBQ party and the video was taken by a Greek/GCs who must hate that racist twit Baghdatis enough to send/email it to ATCANEWS.

You really must be stupid to believe that the HFC would be chanting racist slogans, flying the Greek flag and singing the Greek national anthem and let a Turk video tape it.

Some frigging moderator you are, you tell more lies and cause more troubles then anyone else here. Your "Moderator" job is more than likely to make sure that the arguing never stops.

BTW, Baghdatis might have stood a better chance to win the game against Hewitt and gone further but the pressure put on him by the release of the video was too much and he got his arse kicked, good riddance too.

Calm down mate, anyone would think you've just been invaded and lost half an Island to a bunch of thuggish callous brutes.

That's Piratis's job!

[Piratis]

Here is what I said Eric: "the Turks created a video clip where they are calling the top athlete of Cyprus and possibly the whole region as "racist" and "thug""

The original video simply showed the events. I didn't say they Turks filmed the video. I said they created a video clip that contains accusations and swearing against out athelet. If you are not able to understand the difference between filming video and creating a video clip with your own comments on it, then the one who is stupid is non else than you.

I know how you hate it when the Cypriot flag is shown in such major events, and since you tried to politicize an event that was held in a private party, I hope Marcos will give you the answer and use his position to inform people about your illegal occupation of our country. If you thought you can intimidate him or us with such accusations then you are mistaken. You just achieved the opposite of what you were hopping.

You don't know what the feck you are talking about do you, you idiot?

Baghdatis was reported in the news for what he is, a racist and he deserved what he got and everything he will get in the future for his racist comments.

It was also not the "Cypriot flag" shown in the video, it was the Greek flag and they were singing the Greek anthem not the "Cypriot anthem". So stop your stupid lies.

BTW, have you ever thought how ATCANEWS got a hold of the video in the first place? Maybe some Greek/GC who hates Baghdatis' guts and wanted to destroy him? Well, he sure got him out of the tournament didn't he? Out goes his dream to become the champ. He was served an "ace" and he cracked under the pressure.

His name is mud and he will be remembered as a racist for the rest of his life. He dug his own grave or was stupid enough to let himself be drawn in and mix sports with politics. In other words, he was either stupid enough to allow himself to be used as a political pawn or he stupidly tried to use his "fame" to become politically involved. Either way, it's his own fault.

Actually Ricco the clown, I am from Melbourne, and the it was quite funny when the tcs were calling radio talk back shows complaining, only to be reminded, by the stations they are Cypriots and not turks... ...They simply were told the Turks out of Cyprus was not aimed at them...what a laugh...

Actually one of them asked for Mark to be deported, only to be told, that the turks are actually occupiers of his homeland and there is nothing racist about wanting them out...All this live on air...priceless

Further more a lot more Australians know about the illegal occupation of Cyprus by the turks...All thanks to all those that rang and complained...

But hey keep on whining...please...pretty please...pretty please with a cherry on top...

As far as Mark is concerned, he cleaned up with at least close to US$750,000, final at the kooyong classic and 4th round at the open...but best of all, priceless actually, putting the boot up turkeys ass...

Here read and whip ricco the clown

Baghdatis a racial scapegoat for old menBy Anita Quigley
January 19, 2008 12:00am


THOSE calling for Marcos Baghdatis to be expelled from the Australian Tennis Open - and the country - are not doing so because they feel racially vilified.

They are attempting to raise old prejudices that should have been left at the immigration desk when they arrived in Australia. translation = shut the fuck up

Melbourne's Turkish Cypriot community claim to be furious after Baghdatis was caught on video at a Melbourne barbecue 10months ago with Hellas Fan Club members holding a flare and allegedly chanting "Turks Out".

Having watched it (with a Greek translator), it's not even clear what he is saying.

Baghdatis, who meets Lleyton Hewitt today, does join in singing the Greek national anthem, before an unidentified person begins to call, "Turks out of Cyprus".

However, you cannot see him utter those words because his arm is in front of his mouth.

Admittedly, he is hugging the fan club's president Chris Vlahogiannis in the video, who was this week capsicum-sprayed by police and arrested at the Open.

It is unfortunate the 22-year-old ace now finds himself linked to troublemaker Vlahogiannis, but he cannot be blamed for the Melbourne man's actions. And he has not attempted to inflame any rivalries while on court. He does only what is expected of him: play good, hard tennis.

Australian Turkish Cypriot Cultural and Welfare Association president Hakki Suleyman said he received "a lot of calls" from upset members "stunned about this racist attack" which "breaches the Racial Vilification Act". I wonder what he constitutes as "a lot"?

The ugly ethnic rivalries that raise their heads at Australian sporting events are as predictable as they are irrelevant.

Not to mention tiresome for 99.9 per cent of fans there for the game.

When you become a professional sportsman you have to be careful about what you say.

If this young man didn't appreciate this before, I hope he does now, but equally he is entitled to be patriotic about his homeland without fear of old men, with old axes to grind, using him as their scapegoat.

Ricco the clown you have been turkey slapped...once again

[leduhere]

My friend, God gave humans a head with a brain, mouth, eyes, ears attached to it together with other vital organs one will need to possess for a human to respond like a human. After all, we are a very old nation with great history for crying out loud.

In this case with respect to you, I think that you are not using that head but instead something else. It appears to be also that you suffering from a disorder that will not allow you to provide logical responses.

I suggest you return to your drawing board, to reconsider very carefully, of what Piraklis has described to all of us. Secondly you will need to use that so-called head of yours for the counter attack’s if there were to be any. All further comments from me are withheld for now! Have a lovely day! KAI FERE MOU TA RESTA!

Say what? Hundreds and hundreds of years did you say? Yes you did. Greeks have been for thousands of years. Huge difference. You have obviously failed mathematics! Take up some other course. I hear cleaning toilets is fun.
