No maybes... If I could understand the logic, I'd accept it; go along with it.

Indian hotheads probably said that about Ghandi...

Now what would Ghandi make of such an offer, from an Indian hothead?

And you base your conclusion on what? The antics of two or three hot-heads on this forum who should think before they post? Who are angry and frustrated and are venting their spleen because of the continued injustice to their homeland?

No but constantly goading a donkey makes it kick! And that's what Cypriots on both sides have been doing to each other. And Turkey encourages it in the north, with its flags, and displays and celebrations, and mosques and statues of Atatataturk and destruction of Cypriot heritage... and you just go along with it.


Guess why?

I think your role assignment is flawed .... my little hothead 8)

When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it--always.
