My Son in Laws Great Grandma who is in her late eighties and from a mixed village speaks a patois of Turkish and Greek which the family refer to as Village Cypriot; half the time he can't understand half of what she's saying.
How anyone can mock a lady who is clearly distressed is beyond contempt; whatever nationality she may be.

These short video clips are very poignant and reflect what I believe so many people here on both sides feel,even if they do not say it enough.....
I can personally vouch for these situations because I took my Greek-Cypriot in-laws to the north in 2003.Although they could not visit their house in the closed area of Varosha we were able to go to the Karpas village where Turkish mainlanders have been living,(along with the Turkish Cypriots who were there before), since 1976 when my wifes late grandparents came to England(and where they later died).I kept thinking I was in a dream and perhaps a news reporter making a film when we went to the house and they looked around for the first time in decades.I had been there several times before during the 80's and 90's alone so the family from Trabzon knew me who now occupy it,but obviously it was different going with my father-in-law to the place his was born and grew-up in again....
Just like with the people in the film,there was no animosity-how could there be against poor and uneducated people whose children had also been born there?
Despite Rauf Dentash allegations that there would be bloodshed if the border ever opened to Cypriots,people have proved him wrong and I think this is an encouraging sign against all the gloom and bantering from negative, self-serving politicians on both sides!
I wish Talat,Christophias,Erdogan,Papandreou- and why not people like Obama- would all watch this film and I challenge any of them not to be moved by it!
Afterwards I would accept Talats challenge that he and Christophias should go away in private for a couple of weeks and hammer out a deal on all the internal aspects and produce a settlement' by the Cypriots for the Cypriots' as they keep saying they want.Then Turkey,Greece,Britain and the E.U. can get together with Ban Ki moon and other interested parties and sort out the international aspects.Then they can all go home,we can tear down the green-line and start getting on with building a decent future for everyone on this island, supported by the above countries to help us deal with the many glitches we may find in our path along the way!I don't think it's rocket science and it should not be too much to ask???
P.S. anyone who thinks those films were staged propaganda is sick in the head!
