Before 1963 Cyprus either had governments installed by foreign Imperialists (British, Ottomans etc) or governments where the absolutely essential principle of democracy, that of Majority rule, was oppressed making such government undemocratic and therefore less legitimate.
This doesn't mean that what we had in 1963 and since then is perfect. The perfect would be if the TCs abandoned their demands for racist discriminations and segregation and participated in the running of this country as equal Cypriots. But given the fact that the TCs insist on racist discriminations and segregation, what we had since 1963 is the second best and most legitimate alternative.
You know as well as I do,Piratis,that this government is illegitimate according to its own Constitution...Makarios knew damn well that if he insisted on his 13 changes to the Constitution,hell would break lose,and it did...He made no secret of the fact that the whole thing was planned and carried out to advance the cause of Enosis with Greece...If you steal my rights in 'our'property ,and manage to get your friends to go along with you,that does not make it right or legitimate in my eyes...Stop singing the tune of 'equal Cypriots'...Your aim was to reduce the TCs to an insignificant minority status in 1960s,to advance the cause of Enosis. Now it is still your aim to reduce the TCs to an insignificant minority status,this time in order to rule over the whole of Cyprus as Greeks of Cyprus...You are not fooling anyone with your laughable accusations of 'racist discriminations and segregations etc...'
Your president has finally stated that it is NOT the GC intention to politically dominate the TCs...Let him come out with a solution which will protect the TC rights and interests once and for all...Then we can talk...But you have to convince us that you mean it this time...As you know,ONCE BITTEN TWICE SHY...
