we should consider ourselves lucky that our views diverge and that we can have a dialogue. i would not be here if it was an all (fill in the blank club). i have evolved, so will you. although i find viewpoint, for example, sadly dogmatic, he has helped me a great deal to see my own bias, and although i will never cease to remind him of his opinions. i.e. "i remember solomou", without him we would be all the poorer.
and what about the "Greeks", they are no different, why aren't they in your list. if anything, being a Cypriot, it is not hard to imagine that the interlocutors are in lockstep to keep us subjugated to their will. if they are not the same person they are operatives paid by the same source.
...it will be nice one day to sit in a cafe with all of you, as dear friends, having enriched each others' minds.
Greek speaking Cypriots are freer than Turkish speaking Cypriots are in my view. Turkish Cypriots are still controlled by neo TMT and a TMT mentality as we have seen. Dont forget, they live under an occupation where everything is controlled. You cannot compare the two communities to be completely identical or mirror images. They are not.
I agree with you on dialogue, but I see things differently. I know for a fact that there are Turkish Cypriot nationalists who log on different forums with their own intentions. It is not uncommon for this to occur as part of an overall PR strategy. Look at the trend in language used by BirKibrisli, DTA and Insan, and their approach.....
I also would not be surprised if any of them was Eric Dayi once. I refuse to accept that they represent Turkish speaking Cypriots - they are mad with hate not only for Greek speaking Cypriots but for me because of what I write. Why are they "mad" because they are unconvinced or because I am contradicting their coordinated action on this forum?
