what was the population of Istinjo?

you see DT .... population again .... it does not matter the numbers but it does matter what do u think about others .... what was the aim of it .

these are all applies for both parties . The problem with u my mate u see only your benefits ... it does not work only for one side of the benefits.

u raze off others places , u raze off others roots or memories and ask them to accept to join with u DT .... That what is Turkish Cypriots are asking everyday in North . We are talking about TC's that left their homes in 1963 and 1974 DT .... numbersssssss ..... thats all numberssss ....how u can gain trust or sympathy of those people .... how they shocked when they visited their homes first time .... most of them they didn't visit their birth places again from now on ....

There is one huge difference my friend:

The TCs wanted Partition since the 1950s. It was their dream to abandon their own properties in the south part of Cyprus and steal TWICE AS MUCH in the norther part. If you didn't want partition then we would be in our homes and you in yours. All this happened because you wanted and you continue to want partition.




The above picture is from the 1950s, even before any inter-communal conflict started. So it was (and continues to be) your dream to abandon everything in the south so you can grab twice us much in the north on our expense.

So don't tell me that this "applies to both parties". You abandoned your properties in the south because you wanted to abandon them in order to fulfill your dream of partition, while in our case we were forced to abandon them at gun point.

And what was your dream Pirates to gift 100% of our home to the Greeks..which for us meant our death warrant.

So why is it such a strictly prohibited Turkish Military area?Can anyone explain?Maybe all the former occupants should one day just force their way into it en masse,hoist an E.U. flag and refuse to leave until the Turkish Military at least give it to the U.N!!But do they still care enough to do it??

As one who has recently visited Istinjo in Paphos , as a mark of respect for a great Cypriot , Birkibrisly , I can vouch that the village is indeed in ruins apart from the Mosque -School that still appeared in reasonable order. The rest of the village is in tatters as a result of neglect and disrepair .
It has not been wantonly damaged , the fact the Mosque is still standing is an indication that the village has not suffered from criminal damage but sheer neglect.
The village is situated in a scenic spot and a rather beautiful area of Paphos .
It is a shame that this village , as well as others , have been neglegted by the RoC relevant authorities but I presume that any improvements or repairs can only be carried out if inhabitants are living in the vilage.

Dear Miltiades ,
People in north does not understand why it was neglected ....why .... why they were left to collapse .People are asking these questiones . was it part of plan or plans ?
My sister husband is from one of the Paphos villages to Miltiades . He was born in 1959 . he keep asking these questiones all the time since he visited his village . he speaks very good Cypriot Greek . Last night i was with him he says we can't live anymore with them he says . he is disappointed what he has seen in his village . Why they never find the ways to look after those houses .. was it that much difficult .He says look at their places in here he says .... flower .... flower he says .... when these words comes out from his mouth i can see bitter of his eyes . he can easly cry .... Thats what upset our people Miltiades .when they hear that no one cares about their lost .

Why did they abandon it in the first place?

So are they going to shoot down unarmed people if they dare to try?

[cymart]

They would not have looted Varosha and then let it fall into ruins...
