Of course their biggest oversight is that the status-quo does not just carry-on as it is and this illusion is one of the biggest obstacles.In their mind,unless they can get a solution which fulfills all their utopic designs there should not be one.Fortunately, many quite eminent commentators,including former Presidents of Cyprus,Ministers also share my viewpoint so I rest my case on their wisdom,being the humble person that I am!
As for the comments about land prices etc,much of Cyprus has been ruined already by reckless overdevelopment on both sides of the green-line and anyone who cannot see this must be blind!Yet still more is planned and the next victim will be the Polis/Limni area,for which they are also prepared to ruin the countryside by building an unneeded motorway costing millions,as if building more golf courses is the magic solution to the tourist industries problems here!
By the way,several other specialists have commented on the way speculation has brought enormous wealth to people on this side of Cyprus since 1974 and this is contributing to misconceptions that prices would drop after a solution,when in reality the reverse is true,although I will credit you for saying that.The sad reality is that Cypriot society today is totally consumerist and most people care about their pocket,including many refugees who have given up any hope of things ever changing for the better,perhaps not surprisingly after so long!
The truth is that very few people in the south care about a solution because they feel that there would be nothing in it for them!In reality Cyprus today has become a very mean and quite selfish place and you can blame bigger countries for setting an example if you like, without offending me!
Finally,I would like to add that I am not classified as Jewish,either in religion or race,even if my father was born as one.But the insinuation behind that remark has quite nasty implications,which have been heard in the past and led to terrible consequences!
Shalom,Erev Tod!
Care to explain just what do land prices and developments in Paphos have to do with the Cyprob??
You are all for a solution, exactly why?? You are not GC, you care not for this country other than what you can win by a bodged solution. Anything to get back Famagusta, I wonder why???
I have reading your postings before and thats all you seem to be worried about. it's not about what I and people like me want, it's about not giving into a bunch of criminals that you are supporting, so if that makes me 'the bad guy' then I am happy to carry that title.
The reference to being jewish, was made to highlight the fact that we have interferring busy bodies again, and who the hell is Erin Tod????
As for terrible consequences, well I am shaking!!!!
