The Future of my children...

How can we solve it? (keep it civilized)

The Future of my children...

Postby Raymanoff » Sat Apr 11, 2009 12:12 am

My older son (5) came from kindergarten today and asked me "Dad, is it tru that Turks took half of Cyprus?" I could see a true sadness in his eyes... and couldnt help answering "yes, but they will give it back, dont worry"

Now, that makes me think... lets say in 10 years, what would happen? The whole thing needs a huge RESET... older generations just make it harder.
I really want my son to live in a united Cyprus...

Exactly my thought on Raymanoff's reply to his son..
Better to be realistic than sentimental when educating the young.


by the way...I also want my son to live in a united Cyprus.

And no one should have any doubt as to the sincerity of Iceman's sentiment expressed above because he is a true Cypriot.

The Truth is that the Turks invaded our island twice, once in 1571 and the second in 1974, with the aim to expand against our island. Every time they invade they kill 1000s of Cypriots, they steal our lands and then they bring Turkish Settlers and give to them the land they stole from us. Then they call these Settlers as "Turkish Cypriots". The Cypriot people fight against the invaders for their freedom. If there were no Turkish invasions Cyprus would be a peaceful democratic country with no problems. This is the truth. How could Cypriots be responsible for the Turkish invasions aggression and expansionism? :roll:

Yeah, you don't care about 99.99999% of the history of Cyprus. We know that. So since you are uneducated and clueless what makes you think that you know the truth? :roll: The truth is that you invaded our island multiple times. We only defended ourselves and fought for our freedom. We have every right to fight back when we are attacked by foreign invaders such as Turks. And I get on with my life perfectly you fucking Mongolic beggar. It is you who can not manage anything more than stealing and begging.
