As far as I'm personally concerned, Malapapa, the jury is still out on Turkey's ulterior motives.
The jury came back in when you weren't paying attention and pronounced Turkey's military guilty of murder, rape, torture, ethnic cleansing, looting etc. This wasn't done for the sake of TCs but for the sake of Turkey.

Do you think committing murder, rape, torture, ethnic cleansing and looting is the best way to establish a non-threatening environment for TCs? Fear of revenge for these unpunished crimes against humanity is one of the reasons TCs site for not wanting a true reunification.

But Turkey's actions in Cyprus has made that an impossibility so it's high time you condemned these actions, if as you say, you support the TC people, rather than their ruthless ex-leader, and his desire for an expropriated feifdom.

It didn't work because it was poorly constituted by foreigners - like you - who never had the best interests of Cyprus's people in mind and who knew the island could be better controlled by foreigners if divided. Do not come here advocating the dismemberment of a country you have no connection with, without the consent of its people. It's sick. You're sick.
