We burned the mosques in Cyprus....

How can we solve it? (keep it civilized)

Sam, please stop thinking in terms of the past. Otherwise you might inadvertently justify why Britain should still have an Empire.

No one wants such Imperialist, divisive means of rule anymore, do they?

It's up to the RoC to sort out the mess (with the help of the EU) once the Turkish army leave. Stop thinking in terms of "communities" or the Empires of the past will come back to haunt us.

AND who is going to make the Turkish army leave? :shock: They have been here for 36 years just in case you have not noticed! IEven if they left - there is anough mainland fanatic Turks who have actually settled here and who can take up to arms to create another army as big as the one already in Cyprus!

Thanks to idiots of the GC fanatics and EOKA-B supporters, the only way any Turkish soldier will move out of Cyprusis if there is a just solution that will not deny the existence and political rights of the TCs as common PARTNERS on this (not Greek!) island. :D

From The Turkish hurriyet daily:

Why the Turkish military bombed mosques in Cyprus

[...]

As Yıldıray Oğur, a columnist in daily Taraf, wrote, the operation the ex-general refers to is probably the bombings of the Bayraktar and Ömeriye mosques in Nicosia on the night of March 24, 1962. The incident, naturally, inflamed Cypriot Turks, who organized demonstrations against the Greeks of the island, who they thought were responsible. (Their “resistance,” in other words, was “raised.”)

A few weeks later, though, a local newspaper run by two Cypriot Turks, Ahmet Muzaffer Gürkan, 38, and Ayhan Hikmet, 35, wrote that the bombings had not been done by Greeks at all. And, lo and behold, these two men were both assassinated on that very same night, on April 23, 1962. (Perhaps we need another talkative ex-general to fully shed light on that part of the story.)

Naturally. It appears that it doesn't take much to start a riot.

That's not as bad as What the Greeks did - They killed their own Greek Cypriot brothers on 15th July 1974.

Doesn't the truth hurt? The blowing up of what is essentially a building doesn't really compare to the hundreds of Greek Cypriots that were killed by the "Then" Greek Junta members.

Blerdy hilarious coming from someone who has plastered the forum with posts about ANCIENT Greece and Greeks and how (in her own mind) Cyprus is Greek on account of the PAST!

LOL!

Like Greece is with their so-called "Minority Muslims", or are they Turks! What has the Kurds of Turkey got to do with the Cyprus problem. Hey, let's start discussing the Murdered Turks of Crete as well! Oh! What will we talk about when the Kurdish issue has been soon resolved?
