Let the new buds develop into full grown adults that recognise their homeland and motherland as the island of Cyprus .

Only if we educate them to respect each other and live together like neighbours should. In the north there is plenty of activity to teach the children their Cypriotness. When I see children dancing the Orak wearing a vraga it fills me with joy. Not the crap I was forced to dance at school as a kid. Plenty of adults taking part in Pan-Cypriot activities with GCs. Long may it continue. The trouble is we can't leave it to the education system alone. We as parents have to explain the truth about Cyprus and not the biased views of some of the forumers.
But I have faith in the natural selection of humanity in most of us.


Do yuu see TC children commenting on GCs children being their brothers? they view them just as the view all other foreign visitors to the TRNC. The intercommunal events do not attract a very good turn out what happened at the last event organised by the 2 leaders wives? the turnout was terrible, everyone has lost interest and there is just no momentum becuase nobode truely believe a solution is possible.

Foreign visitors ?? Visiting my ancestral home where generations of my ancestors were born and laboured the land , and you the foreign born impostor calls me a foreigner. Get a life the game is nearing the end mate .

Their purpose in life is simply to hate Turks...


Yes utu, remove the Turkish occupation, have the island reunited, and have the island populace living in an independent and peaceful Cyprus, and the end result is that Turk haters will cease to exist.

The Turkish occupation, the human rights violations and the stealing of our lands is what creates the hate. Remove the cause of the hate, and the hate will disappear.


You hated TCs and Turks well before 1974.


The crimes of Turks started well before 1974.

Basically the Turks stopped committing crimes against us for 80 years between 1878 and 1958. And in those 80 years we had forgiven the Turks and lived peacefully with them - until they attacked again in 1958.

Oracle, let us strive for peace and unity, so when your son grows up all he has to fear watching will be the beautiful girls singing and dancing in the lovely sunshine.

The last one I attended in Gonyeli was very well attended and well recieved by the Gonyeli population. When it is organised by the grass root level, I found the attendances very well. I was not aware who was Greek and who was Turkish. It does not even matter how many of each, what matters is that such an event can draw a crowd and people enjoy the show.

I don't think some flag on a mountain could do him any further damage if the kid is being brought up with the sort of mentality you portray over here :roll:

Nice attempt of an emotional black mail though, it might have meant something if you had not posted 10,000 racist posts prior to it :lol:


Explain to me precisely why it is there then? ... if it is as innocuous as you would like to portray. Emotional blackmail? What kind of blackmail are you Turks conducting, not just with a flag, but 45,000 Turkish soldiers pointing guns to keep the 200,000 GCs from their homes! How racist am I, who wants to stop the ethnic divide that you enforce upon us?

I must declare personal bias. My family take part in singing and folk dancing. And jolly bloody good they are at it too, if I may say so.

You reminded me of something with a previous post. At primary school we were taught 'Tavas Zeybegi'. I used to wonder, what had Tava to do with this type of dance. Then there was the Zeybek; the brigands of eastern Anatolia. Later we learnd that Tavas was a place name not related to Cyprus. I am smiling now but these were atempts at killing our Cypriot heritage. IMO. :lol:

Yep. I learned Harmandali. What has that got to do with Cyprus?
Can the same be said now?
Our children are reclaiming their heritage despite everything. It is just incredible when you see them do the Cypriot dances.

For your information in some EU countries even abortion is prohibited which is a serious crime against human rights. EU is far from being perfect and what EU countries do is not always right.(ex. treatment of Turkish minority in Greece) Be a good Asian and worship EU less.
