I am deeply sorry you feel this way, Palio.
Did Isaak ask to have 50 Grey Wolves batter him to death, in his own country? If he did ask for it and it was his "own fault" as you say ... ask yourself why he made such a sacrifice?
And yes his cousin Solomos was consequently emotionally affected by the battering and symbolically tried to lower a foreign flag ... maybe he heard warnings, maybe he didn't ... it was chaotic ... and I'm not even sure Alkin called out to him before cold-bloodedly shooting him.
Afxentiou could have come out of the cave when the Brits called him (like the rulers they were) ... but he stood his ground and was burnt alive.
Were all our heroes stupid, palio?
no of course not.. the video on youtube where the police are beating him..
but i dont see what Solomou thought trying to pull the flag down would achieve. i think the batsard turks will get whats coming to them for coming to cyprus killing 20.000 cypriots for no reason then continueing to cause problems to have an excuse to invade and split our island in two then continue to voilate so many laws and be such hypocrites the scum of the earth turks for dong such things.
but he should of stopped and instead of giving his life he could of handled things differently. to be alive and see justise.
i shiouldent of said stupid but it just doesrent make sense to kill yourself when he could of had justise against the turks and been alive to see the turks tasken to court recently
But, we don't think like the Turks. Solomos did not think like the Turks. Which decent human being would think someone would shoot you for trying to lower a flag?
Different mentality, Palio. Solomos couldn't have possibly known he was going to be shot for such a thing ...

Because it is not just their land but it is mostly OUR land. If they can't live with us and they want a state of their own they can go to ask from Turkey to donate them land in Turkey. They have no right to ethnically cleanse us and steal our land. But of course an immoral person like you can not understand this simple thing!
