very hopeful news, the last time I heard a Turkish being in Vatican was Mehmet Ali Agca and his song was NOT cheered with greate pleasure by the previous Pope

Makes a change from Turks shooting Popes ....

That's because they're Cypriots and not Turks Oracle.

Really ....

Does a leopard change its spots?

Your humour is not amusing at all. Turkish speaking Cypriots are NOT Turks.

[Oracle]

Really?

They sure behave like they are Turks! They sure look like Turks! They sure speak like Turks!

Other than the fact that TCs live on Cyprus .... what are the salient differences to any old Turk?

,,,if you lived in my village you too would resent being called 'mixed'.

we have respect, our love is given freely, we share as one in our fear of god and we serve this master first,
unlike our neighbours in greece and turkey who serve themselves.

I agree with you!

[xxNilxx]

They don't look like Turks. All Cypriots look similar to eachother.
They are completely different to Turks; mentality and culture, and how would you know they speak like Turks? You speak Gibrizlija? No. They speak extremely differently (Like GSCs speak Kypriaka, we speak Gibrizlija).
