Take a look at the results of the poll VP , a straightforward question .Do take into account that two T/Cs have posted their preference without casting their vote. I should think that the overwhelming majority of T/Cs do feel that the whole island is their homeland . I can say that this poll conclusively signals that the vast majority do not share your views .
As for your statement that " considerable number do not see the GC south as theirs " may I refer you to the results so far of the poll.
Dont get to excited miltiades its still remains that a considerable percentage do not reagard any part of the GC south Cyprus as theirs. there are a number of Tcs who have not voted and have not been around for a while zan being one.
Z4 , Cem , YFred , Deniz , Iceman , Vuryek , Insan , TC as well well as Halil and Kikapu who have not voted , all T/Cs , have told us that they are indeed T/Cs and consider ALL of Cyprus to be their beloved homeland. I dont see what is extraordinary about this !! Their parents , grandparents and beyond were born , raised , lived and buried in our Cyprus why on earth should they or anyone else for that matter feel otherwise.
VP , you are in the minority , I know more about my T/C compatriots than you will ever know , you see I lived amongst them , shared sleeping quarters as a child and grew up having not one iota of enmity for them , they were my little mates that I played with , shared my happy moments with and my sad ones . Growing older we all were adversely indoctrinated by nationalistic malicious powers that implanted the seeds of hatred for our brothers and sisters , hatred that led to the tragedy that enveloped our entire island and caused so much pain and suffering to our people.
