I am too scared of you GR! I have to be very cautious . GR as long as someone doesn't take it all personally, I don't have a problem with anyones views, it doen't make me hate an individual or GC's in general. All our fears GR lie in the mistakes of the past. Although I have never been through the shit my parents went through, I still feel their pain from the past . This is what pushes me to be cautious about intensions.
Forgive me for interjecting here GR & Um but there is something I do not undersatnd when Umit says about the sxxt. "past" and "pain". My grandparents, my wife's grandparents, several aunts and several uncles and loads of cousins and friends and villagers from our three villages went through the trauma and pretty bad experiences of the 74 invasion. Many forced at gunpoint to take their babes in arms and whatever belongings they could carry and walk for days to safety in the free areas and the eastern SBA. They spent one to two years in tents in the refugee camps until they were housed in pre-fab'd public housing and some of them are still there to this day.
I would ask Umit and others, why is it that my relatives and friends are prepared, if not to forget and forgive, at least to move on with some optimism for the future in a united, democratic, new Cy? Why is it that the suffering of my relatives and villagers at the hands of the Turkish army counts for nothing in the eyes of some members of this forum?
