False flag operations, 1958-1963

How can we solve it? (keep it civilized)

My point was, it might matter to you. If I write awful Turkish propaganda - if I am an awful Turkish propagandist - an ignorant foreigner might not know any better, but a Greek or a Greek Cypriot would. So I couldn't write propaganda, even if I wanted to, which I don't, because I'm not a propagandist. I can't think of many other ways to say it to you again.

You can say what you please, and I have criticised your points before; but just do not pretend you are non partisan or have avoided weighing condemnation towards the GCs.


So, you're accusing me of being biased deliberately...

Perhaps you feel you've tried to be balanced. I am criticising you for failing in that attempt.


Oh, no, wait, you're accusing me of being biased accidentally...

Accept it and improve your presentations;


Accidental...

... or be honest and admit it is a thesis setting out to find fault with the GCs .... which is how I see your work so far.


Deliberate...

It was evident to me from your first post, and what you do not tackle in your responses, says much also; that is all.


Accidental...

I do not wish to labour on this issue. Feel free to continue upon your crusade.


Deliberate...

But an honestly unbiased evaluation, is not something you can claim. :)


Ah, in the end you decided upon deliberate.

Well, at least I have an absurd, baseless criticism to roll my eyes at. :roll: That feels better.

The thing that confuses me most, is that you do read my posts and my responses to yours, but your brain seems to screen out all of the things I do, which you want me to do, which you then criticise me for not having done. But as I said before, there are other Greeks and Greek Cypriots who trust me, so I don't need your seal of approval.

So when I pass, what will you do? Suddenly change your mind, or decide that my examiners were "really" Turkish too?

No .... but I am sure you would have convinced them with your confidence! :wink:
