the only adequate compensation is not how many greek were killed - you invited that as sure as eggs are eggs.

the adequate compensation we seek is a safe place to live our lives as normal human beings.

Why always the ottomans, man you’re obsessed with ottomans. What do you know about ottomans? Have you ever seen an ottoman Do you know an ottoman, have you met one? Have you slept with his daughter? What do you know about ottomans?

Don't TCs claim 500 years of history in Cyprus? Aparently you remember Ottomans when it suits you only?

The only reason I talk about the Ottomans is to show that we have been opressed way more than TCs so the TCs should not prentent to be the only victims that now have to be rewarded on our expense. History is something continues. It is not something that starts suddenly in one year and ends in another whenever is convinient .

If you talk about 63-74 then you have to accept the historical events that happen before and after that. Do you think it is fair to put blame on GCs and demand their punishment by judging them by one decade and at the same time you refuse to be judged for the rest of history?

no they take land from venedic and give it greeks.(I mean legally)

in Cyprus??? When did that happen?

[Murtaza]

didnt take my answer.
what were the greek when ottoman attacked cyprus?

[gabaston]

youre right piratis -

you have been there much longer than we have.

but we were supposed to be equal with the 60 constitution, that was agreed by you and us - but instead you pushed for that last mile (enosis), and started a bloodbath. we lived in the enclaves etc etc etc not you.

now we all cypriots huh ....................

please dont tell me that the turkish army hasnt got anything to do with this new found cypriot brotherly love. We were downtrodden before, weve been isolated since- and no doubt you want to be our masters again -

no no no - you had your chance at that and you blew it.

Sure, maybe in that decade we have more blame, but don't forget that you also pushed for taksim. Now how comes that when Turks commit crimes in CYprus is ok, and when GCs do them is not. If you consider that Turks made 100X the crimes, then you should be the last ones complaining now. (especially now that you violate our rights as we speak)

no no no - you had your chance at that and you blew it.

Sure, but would you like your children to listen to this words in the future?

I am not asking from you to give us back what we own as a favor. I am saying that it is the right thing to do for both of us. If you do not realize it, then don't be surprised when you will lose way more than me because of insisting that human rights should not be applied in Cyprus.

piratis
i started reading your post and stopped at the first or second line re taksim.

look its simple we did not want to be greek, just like you do not want to be turks right?

so we said right you can have your enosis but because we dont want to be greek or we dont want to leave, then you take most of cyprus and have your enosis. Do want you want with your bit, we wont interfere, but leave us a bit so we can live our lives as we want-

was anything wrong with that?

now back to reading the rest of your post
