Let us see, again for the hundredth time:
Sillouris, Koutsou, Stylianos Pattakos, Denktash, the deep state of Turkey, Siros (EOKA B second in command), all of these and many more of the same ... calibre voted (or supported the "NO" campaign) against solution in 2004 and in effect elected to keep the Turkish army in Cyprus for ever.
On the contrary, people like Takis Hadjimichael, Takis Hadjigeorgiou, Glafkos Klerides, Nikos Anastasiades, George Vasiliou, Mustafa Akinci, my friends Kemal, Halil and Mustafa, Niazi Kizilyurek, Neshe Yiasin and many others, voted for solution.
Here you are. You have in front of you two lists of people and I ask you to tell me which list contains the extremists.
I told you before Piratis. You create your own daemons and you fight them. You excuse yourself by promising to wait for another 1000 years if you have to, for the balance of power to change in our favour in order to liberate our lands. You cover your rhetoric with a thin coat of patriotism and you think you are home and dry. I think Mikkie gave a good answer to this dangerous obsession of yours and I do not need to add anything else.
Nikephoros can go to hell. I have been fighting throughout my adult life fascists of his kind who just happened to be born Greek. Had he been a Turk he would have been a Grey Woolf. They are all the same.
DISY, the party that harbors EOKA B and people like Karras and Pourgourides (known EOKA B members) have been among the most fanatical supporters of the "yes" campaign. Your friends Anastasiades and Kliredes who don't miss a Grivas memorial are the leaders of the only party who supported the Annan plan.
So your attempt to associate the 76% of the Cypriot people that rejected the Annan partition plan with specific people is rather redicoulous, since I can easily reverse your claims.
Once again your are trying to make a point not by discussing the
essence of the issue, but by making childish "arguments".
The
essence dear Bananiot is that a true solution and a real unification if
not on offer today. What was on offer with Annan plan was a de jure partition of Cyprus.
Because you are a bit too think to understand what I am saying, let me use the metaphor:
A man (Cyprus) suffers from a decease (Turkish expansionism). The decease causes partial paralysis to the man, but it doesn't kill him. Unfortunately there is currently no known cure for this disease. Then somebody pretending to be a doctor comes along (Annan etc) and says to the man that he has the "solution" to the man's problem: "Look Mr. Cyprus, as you know there is no cure for your disease and you should understand this reality, but how about if you take this poison (Annan plan) which will kill you and solve in this way your problems?"
Mr. Cyprus said "NO". But according to Bananiot, we should have suicided just because a cure currently doesn't exist!
