but getting back to the topic that the thread starter was hinting at the original inhabitants en mass was the Hittite empire so therefore is he or she stating that both GC and TC should go 'home'? what do you think?

I think you're an idiot...

So the Greeks came to cyprus before the Hittite empire is that what your saying?

Cypriots should stay. Turks should go home. Turkish Cypriots should decide where their allegiances lie, and if they're with Turkey, they should go live with runaway.

I'm currently reading Bruce Chatwin's book 'The Songlines', the subject of the book being aboriginal songs describing ancient tracks connecting communities throughout Australia. The songlines also relate to the creation of the land and secrets of its past. Near the beginning of the book Chatwin gets into conversation with an aborigine in a bar in Alice Springs.

'Are you English' asked the aborigine.
'Yes,' I said.
'Why don't you go back home?'
He spoke slowly, in clipped syllables.
'I just arrived,' I said.
'I mean all of you.'
'All of who?'
'White men,' he said.
The whites had stolen his country, he said. Their presence in Australia was illegal. His people had never ceded one square inch of territory. They had never signed a treaty. All Europeans should go back to where they came from.

Captain James Cook is credited with claiming Australia for King George III in 1770, and the first European colonisation occurred in 1788. However, there is evidence of European ships sailing close to Australia much earlier, around 1606.

Only a few decades earlier than this Cyprus was invaded by the Ottomans, the longterm consequences of which contribute to the current division, and political and military stalemate, on the island.

Does the aborigine in the bar in Alice Springs have a valid point? And if he does, then is there merit to the arguments of some on this forum that TCs, who are not the indigenous people of Cyprus, 'should go home to Turkey'? And in the general sense, has the mass migration of humans to different parts of the globe in recent centuries been to the overall benefit or detriment of mankind? Or is the cost to indigenous populations too high?

Tut, tut, tut Talisker. I always considered you an almost neutral contributor with a slight leaning to the GC point of view. How interesting that you should show your real feelings.

Its a stupid thread anyway and not even worth discussing. After years of mixed blood and all that, the Turkish Cypriots existence on the island is legal and we are on Cyprus to stay.

Tut, tut, tut Deniz. I always considered you to be someone who would read a post before commenting on it. Where did I 'show my real feelings'? Read the post again and you'll see I provided some facts and related scenarios, and asked a few questions, some more specific than others.......

No, you recalcitrant outsiders!

Any Hittites on the island integrated/assimilated, as is normal.

You are the ONLY belligerents!
