On one hand we shout it to the world that Cyprus is independent , member of this and that now in the EU , we invite the T/Cs to join us and then we tell them to stand to attention when a foreign anthem is played . I would not stand to attention let alone the T/Cs.
Are we independent or are we a part of a foreign nation ? We demand the withdrawal of all troops from Cyprus , those that remain will be those whose role is not that of an occupying army.
We demand that our nation rids it self from the chains of slavery , we are Greek CYPRIOTS , Turkish CYPRIOTS , Armenian and Maronite CYPRIOTS , British and other CYPRIOTS , WHAT WE ARE NOT IS GREEKS AND TURKS .
We have a right to embrace our true identities as provided by the RoC , such documents as passports and IDS do not class us as Turks or Greeks but clearly state CYPRIOT.
The mentality that led to Cyprus's biggest ever catastrophe was one afflicted by the decease of pseudo nationalism
which directly invited the occupier of a third of our island to be here in the first place.
When will they realise that our nation is CYPRUS why give a toss about a foreign country that we were NEVER a part of in our long history. I have been misquoted so many times I now just ignore it but on this occasion once again I REITERATE. I'm , just as my forefathers were a Greek Cypriot , not a Greek. As a Cypriot I consider the Turkish Cypriots to be my compatriots and my Cypriot equals in everty aspect.
I have never accepted the occupation and the excuses given by the occupyier as to the reasons their armies are still on Cyprus soil. I have argued hard on issues dividing our island and promoting partition leading to a certain annexation of the occupied part by Turkey.
I have steadfastly supported the position that our RoC government has incessantly promoted , that Cyprus is an independent nation and at the same time I ridicule the hypocritical and utterly illogical situation whereby we preach one thing but do another , a perfect example the continuation of the GREEK national anthem. Greek IT IS , not as our resident mad scientist suggests that the anthem is Cypriot.
The way forward is unification with one nation one identity one flag and one anthem of our own.
What is wrong with my position that attracts so much venom from the fascists that appear to concentrate on this forum.
Not one single word that I wrote was damaging to Cyprus or to the prospects of a peaceful resolution .
such documents as passports and IDS do not class us as Turks or Greeks but clearly state CYPRIOT.
Milt our entire constitution is built on differentiating who's a TC and who's a GC.
DT , Do try to understand what I'm saying.
I'm a realist and have always referred to us as the G/Cs and the T/Cs . I dont call T/Cs Turkish speaking , Cypriot Muslim or anything else from what they are .
The crux of the matter is that a large number of both G/Cs and T/Cs are denying themselves their birthright to be , above all else , a Cypriot.
To the best of my knowledge this "denial" in embracing our country of birth is unique to Cyprus. There is not one single independent nation on earth where its people consider foreign countries as their motherlands.
Yes , both Greece and Turkey , if we were to accept our independent status in the world , are foreign countries by definition .
It's about time I stopped you hanging out with him, every time he comes over you seem to become even more stupid.
