IF we were to enforce, without exception, the Forum rules about not promoting illegal activity and IF we define all activities within the 'TRNC' and by Turks as illegal, we will not have much left to discuss. We would all be saying how righteous the ROC is - and nodding our heads, sagely.

Everything Goebbels posts from the self-declared regime's state broadcaster is, by any objective measure, propaganda.

There is no attempt at balance, impartiality, reflection or critical analysis. No effort is made to eliminate distortion, misrepresentation or suppression of the truth. Moreover, the posts often encourage discrimination, ridicule, prejudice and hatred of non-Cyprus Turks.

Goebbels makes no attempt to exercise a personal conscientious objection to what he posts, on the grounds of maintaining professional and ethical standards.

In short, posts from Bayrak go against all principles of good journalism, are a disgrace to the CF and an insult to all its members.

This is a discussion forum. Therefore, people should be allowed to post their own views. Links (and selected copy and pasting) should be allowed to support their arguments, or to make a point. However, systematic posting of news reports from a single source (which is clearly biased by any standards) with no attached arguments or comments is not conducive to debate and simply abuses the forum. Halil is clearly guilty of this and therefore Admin/Lana should demand that this be discontinued, or else further action will be taken.

Unless I have ben misinformed, Halil is not a journalist. Halil will correct me if I am wrong.

You generalise too much; You said, " an insult to all its members.[/quote[/color]] where you mean to say 'an insult to Greek speaking forumers'. (and a few others).

Avoiding the issues I raised. Chicken.

[The Cypriot]

OK, deniz, I will make the effort to decipher what you posted as you won't make the effort to clean it up.

You informed me that Halil wasn't a journalist. Thanks for that, Sherlock. There was me thinking he was the north's answer to Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein.

His blatant propaganda posts, masquerading as news, are an insult to all CF members. Perhaps I should have qualified this by saying his posts insult the intelligence of all members. Then, if one was not insulted, one would know why.
