If these fanatics cannot see eye to eye with people like Birkibrisli how in heaven are they helping Cyprus? In reality they hate Cyprus and they will do anything they can to destroy it. These people wanted to annihilate the Turkish Cypriot community in the early 60's in order to create a pure Greek state that would eventually unite with Greece. Just like the Greek army did to all minorities in northern Greece during the 1912 - 1914 wars. Hundreds of villages were erased to the ground by the victorious Greek army. The Turkish army did exactly the same thing during 1925 - 1923 when modern Turkey was established. That was the time when pure nation-states were formed.
If we were given half a chance, we would have done the same to the Turkish Cypriots. These people that shout about democracy and human rights today, turned a deaf year when others were suffering and this alone does not legitimise them to talk about these sacred values.
Absolutely right Bananiot. Whilst people like Piratis - who instil hatred of the Turk and their 'remnants' the Turkish Cypriots, there will never be a re-unification. Piratis and his ilk are more dangerous than the EOKA-B. Nothing Piratis will ever say will let TCs (most of them) want unification but only partition. hat is Piratis only aim. Well, thats what he will get.
Do you doubt that Piratis supports Democracy?
Do you doubt that Piratis respects Human Rights?
That is all he advocates; Democracy and Human Rights for all!.
The extrapolations about imaginary "consequences" are of your doing and not his.
For how long should we, the Cypriot people, suspend our desire for Democracy and Human Rights, just to please some tyrannous minority who want special racist advantages?
I have never challenged Piratis over democratic rule and human rights in Cyprus Oracle. I only challenge his monotonous repeating of the 'alleged right to self determination and right to Enosis with scant disregard to the fate of the Turkish minority of Cyprus - the main problem we have at hand. He knows that. The Turkish Cypriots would have never accepted Enosis. The formation of the TMT and demands for 'Taksim' was the natural reaction to the demand for ENOSIS.
