Now Elko is sounding like a stuck record

[Get Real!]

Greece cheated the books in order to get into Eurozone. Did this really surprise anybody? Of course not.

Someone was awfully desperate to post his bitterness…

I bet the GCs did the same and they are on the same path. Blame Turkey for stealing your tourists ismet

For the love of God no! For your sake, don't bet anything because all your predictions end up wrong!

The only prediction I make is that the people governing south Cyprus will lie and cheat and turn on anyone and everyone.

Oh, and Get Real will continue to be unable to lend credible insight and as a result will only use the ridiculous to cover his ineptitude.

Note, two of the most prolific writers on this forum discussing how Cyprus is for Cypriots and the objection to Turkey and other motherlands happily identify wholeheartedly with Greece.

I am a little saddened by that as I am actually thinking it would be a good time to invest in a pied-a-terre in Athens in a few months time. However, happily not everyone that associates themselves with Greece are as twisted as GR and Oracle. The people I know there think the Cypriot greeks are nuttier than Mr Goodbar.

I was quite shocked to hear the opinions of Istanbulites regarding TC's and the occupied areas.

Beautiful city, some streets felt like Mayfair in London and the next one down was like a street in downtown Cairo. Incredible contrast everywhere you went.

The hotel and the service in it was one of the best I experienced and thats saying something, I'm on the road twice a month.

The people were extremely friendly and in business very professional. I found that a lot of them felt quite detached from the remainder of Anatolia. One even expressed his desire to see Istanbul split off from the remainder of Turkey.

The amazing thing was that in all the discussions regarding the CYpriot problem with them, not once were the tc's mentioned. The players are the ROC and Turkey and what the tc's wished didn't seem to matter and there wasn't any great feeling of kinship with them.

The younger guys felt that Cyprus was only good for the poker tournaments that go on in the occupied areas.

One of the most extensive ad campaigns in Turkey over the last year has been advertising of holidays to Greece.

Greece wants Turkish spending money - smart move, good business - EasyJet flies into Istanbul - this hate that is espoused on this forum is insane for the modern day.

You should also have spoken to a few Armenians in Turkey, I have and they are happy, nothing like the persecuted described in the media - they say they are more persecuted when they go back to Armenia as their friends and family call them traitors for continuing to live in Turkey.

The fanatic lobbyists have so much to answer for - helping to build barriers higher and higher.
