I would say those who argue along the lines of Bananiot for the GC camp and those who argue along the lines of BirKibrisli for the TC camp.

Reason being that I and others manage to put into perspective the few cases of inter-communal violence which we undeniably had. But thankfully they were few and we know they were due to extremists, mostly TMT and some EOKA B'.

So I would like these isolated cases put into historical context and seen as slight 'pertuberances' which should not have stalled our progress towards a full and Free democratic republic in the formula represented by every other modern state in the EU today.

But we still have dinosaurs who preach the troubles were so bad that GCs and TCs can never hope to live together again.

This is partitionist thinking!

This is daft Eroglu thinking!

Let's put an end to these stalwarts against reunification, the Bananiots and BirKibrislis. Let's accept the past is the past and every nation has an unfortunate past. Let's move forward to taking control of our destiny and living together, united by a common need to educate our children and improve our environment.

Let's get rid of the pro-Turkish partitionists!

I vote for you!

Let's also get rid of their brainless, incomprehensible sidekick idiots!

[Bananiot]

EOKA B' in 1963?

Birkibrisli thinks along the lines of great Turkish Cypriot patriots of the likes of Kavazoglu, Fazil Ondur, Ahmet Yahaya, Ahmet Sadi of PEO, Ahmet Ibrahim, Ayhan Hikmet and Ahmet Gurkan. All these people were murdered by TMT just because they advocated peace and friendship.

Nobody that loves and cares about this island should have an issue with Birkibrisli. If we cannot live with the Kibrisli then TMT were/are correct to seek partition. Can you fools understand this.

Exactly! A few well chosen names is all that you can uphold as the reason for supporting partition.

Your totalitarian partitionist excuses are invalid in a Human Rights centred world. There is no place for reverence of a "Kibrisli" ... only equal Human Rights for all!

Which Bir? The one before or the one that agrees with VP and Yfred?

I do not quite follow how Bananiot and Bir are partitionists.

As for the "few" incidents of intercommunal violence, presumably these were the clashes of 1963-64, they were more than a few. The mere creation of the National Guard in 1964 proves that the GC community as a whole did not regard this as a minor matter, it was the first establishment of a standing army in the history of Cyprus.

That's because it was the first time Cyprus attempted to function as an independent state!

Are you condoning partition to affect over million people on the basis of a few hundred deaths?

If you are such an advocate of peace and friendship why do you continue to advocate the punishment of a whole community by taking away their democratic and civil rights?

Anyone who doesn’t support/believe in a unitary state is a partitionist.
