And of course the blame game is not simply limited to this issue; it is alive and kicking on many others, too. On Cyprus Turkey always claims to be driving forward a solution and continues to deny any wrongdoing in the past rather continuing to state that its role in the Cyprus conflict was to bring peace to the island and placing the blame elsewhere for the continued division. It is the same when it comes to the membership negotiations with the EU. Blame for the stagnation of the talks always lies at the feet of the EU. But this approach should come as no big surprise given the fact that many Turks are simply unable to accept or acknowledged that their country, and the Ottoman Empire before it, has ever behaved in a way that was less than perfect. They are unable to deal with the past and have trouble acknowledging that sometimes Turkey does make mistakes. Rather they prefer to point the finger at others.

here you go bir the turks can never do any wrong....like turkeyfying the north, resettling the north with settlers, installing puppets and all of this i didn't do anything wrong...
hey bir why not give me your dealers phone number for next time i am in sydney i will look him up...
bir willl have you believe, in some utopian state of mind he is at, instead the turks came to save the tcs, and as it happened they are only here until a solution is found...then when a solution is found, dictated by turkey, they will pack up and leave...man you and your kids stories never ceaze to amaze me...
then he will tell you turkey will always have an interest in cyprus, what that interest is while known to everyone, read control of the whole island, bir can't even bare to come out and say it...
yeap some moderate you have turned out to be bir...i true cypriot...not only he has become the new voice of the blind some might say bordering stupidity...
bir s unable or better still is trying to fool everyone with his constant whining...
now bir will tell you, read demand, the tcs will only accept a solution where they are politically equal with autonomy, forgetting that under turkey occupation they have neither...not only have neither but expected to to be bankrolled and not only bankrolled but paying their debts off to turkey...well bir, get your political equality and autonomy from turkey, bankroll your self and square off your debts...but i hear bir and the knucklehead screaming, embargoes...well if turkey loves you as much as you claim and say surely they can forgive the debts of their little brother...
after pounding bir with democracy, human rights and rule of law, and bir coming out with every possible bullshit excuse, he now all of a sudden became an advocate of the above said rights...man you change your views like the wind...here is one for you bir, why not advocate all of the above to the occupied areas first then come and tell us your views for unification...oh i know lets blame the turks on this one too...i wonder if in the north, the bastion of the above rights, article 301 applies...
yeah bir, i got you sussesed out long ago...you might not trust a greek bearing gifts, but you never trust a honey dripping mouth...
