What a racist statement - with one sentence you have judged a complete community on the island.
This was a one liner, so we probably cannot assume you got carried away and mis-represented your views.

Please consider is this really what you believe?

the Cypriots are not Hellenic. :wink:
The "Brits"is actually a pop music award ceremony.
Actually on this i would Agree with you - its a politically inspired thing, i think Tony (B)liar was a great believer in the movement.
But Ask the people in the UK if they are British or English and how they feel about being Labelled Brits.
Football Team
Cricket Team
Rugby Team
etc etc etc Et Al They are ENGLISH.

I agree not all Cypriots are "Hellenic". But Greek Cypriots are Hellenic. Similarly, not all Brits are English. But the English are Brits.

Both "Brit" and "Cypriot" are political constructs which neutralize ethnic and historical origins.
