You make it sound like TV has just now been discovered in Turkey 74LB. Where were any Kurdish programs before now, or is it only because the EU had forced Turkey to make the changes that should have been done all along, in order to become a EU member. It is hardly a voluntary wish by Turkey, wouldn't you say.?

You have a short memory Insan. You said there were 35% TC's on the island one time and were not minorities and that their numbers were reduced by all the excuses that you gave including blaming the GC nationalists, when in fact, it was in 1881 when their numbers dropped drastically due to "changing of the guards" for Cyprus. It had nothing to do with all the other excuses you gave for their numbers dropping, that's all. So admit that you were blaming the wrong people and move on.!

No. I still insist on what i previously stated abt the causes of reducing numbers of TCs and in no case i considered TCs as a minority and never will consider TC community as a minority in Cyprus.

You can insist all you want because it will not change anything, because the facts are, you have been proven wrong with your own information that you gave as facts. Your facts also gave the numbers where it showed that the TC's were always the minority in Cyprus. If you do not see the TC's as a minority, then they must be the majority, and if they are the majority, who are the minorities in Cyprus.? Please do tell us.!

And by the way, the word "minority" is not a dirty word nor does it make them any less equal citizens of that country, and if special "minority right" are not asked for by the minority groups, they will not even be seen as minorities but rather only as equal citizens of that country, much like Switzerland, where the Swiss Germans are the majority group with 69%, the Swiss French at 20%, the Swiss Italians at 10% and last but not least, the Romansch at a walloping 1%, but no group see themselves as being the majority or a minority, because they only see themselves ONLY Swiss, since no special privileges are given to any "minority" groups who are less than the Swiss Germans who are at 69%.!

In a true democracy the lower classes of a nation control public affairs without respect to law, precedents or vested rights. Attitude toward law is that the will of the majority shall regulate based upon deliberation, passion, prejudice or impulse, without restraint or regard to consequences of the action. A true democracy has been shown to results in demogogism, (a country run by the passions and prejudices of the majority) license, agitation, discontent and anarchy.

Look what they say abt true democrasy

You really had to dig deep in Google to find something to use against True Democracy, and very little at that, which was what some individual said as her own personal view and despite of all that, this same person believes in human rights, constitutional rights and individual freedoms, which is a far cry from your con job "consociationalism".!

Ms. Lewis is a devote Lutheran and spends much of her free time advocating interfaith understanding and dialogue between the three monotheistic faiths: Christianity, Islam and Judaism. A staunch supporter of human rights, constitutional rights and individual freedoms, the bulk of her philanthropic work exists to expose assaults on each and eliminate the fear created through misinformation. Favorite past-times include cooking, art, sailing, music and travel.

CyBC broadcasts in Turkish for decades.

It is amazing how you think that others should be satisfied with only a fraction of the minimum while for yourselves you demand an overly exaggerated maximum which is in violation of the human and democratic rights of every other Cypriot!

We would gladly accept if you had a lot more than what the Kurds have in Turkey. Like Turkish as an official language of Cyprus, for example. The Kurds would be ecstatic if they got even 1/10th of what you can have in Cyprus. And still you think of your community as being so "special", and you demand yourselves outrageous things.

Which other ethnic community, for example, asked to have its own separate state on land that belongs to another community by over 80%?? Do the TCs understand how totally outrageous such demands are? And do they seriously expect us to accept such demands?

Let them enjoy with their daily waste of time. They r not yet aware of that running around the same circle for abt a century Watching them from a far distance is more joy than joining them.

At this occassion lemme dedicate the Hellenic national anthem to all fake Cypriots.

One step at a time Kikapu, one step at a time.
Regardless of why the broadcasts have started, it's a step in the right direction imo.
