The selective look at history comes only from you mate. You forget that the inter-communal conflict was started from you when you collaborated with foreign imperialists and you attacked us in the 50s. Our enemy was the Colonialists, not your minority. You became the enemy only when you attacked us.
And no, the racist system you forced on Cyprus in 1960 so you can have Ottoman style privileges on our expense was not a good environment to build trust and friendship either.
This is exactly what I am saying Bir. For as long as you are trying to oppress us and violate our rights we will fight back and there will be a Cyprus Problem. After 4+ centuries of oppressing us you haven't yet realized that we will never accept to be your slaves?
Enosis was the right of the Cypriot people. What makes you think that Cyprus can be part of the British or Ottoman empires against the will of the Cypriot people, but can not be part of a Greek state if this is what the vast majority of Cypriots themselves want? And still we agreed to compromise and accept that Cyprus will not be part of the Greek state, but independent instead. But instead of real independence what was forced on us in 1960 was some racist undemocratic constitution, with foreign bases and foreign armies which was making Cyprus some banana republic of the British and the Turks.
And you avoided answering the question: Is there any difference for TCs between being an ethnic minority in a Greek state (with Cyprus part of this Greek state) and being an ethnic minority within an independent Cypriot state? History proves beyond any doubt that for TCs there is no difference whatsoever. Enosis is an excuse that expired decades ago so stop hiding behind enosis to excuse your racist demands that are the same from 1571 until 2010: To have the Greek Cypriots as second category people so you can undemocratically control Cyprus and enjoy privileges on our expense.
