This was aimed at 'some' GCs who think the history of Cyprus began in 1974. A lot of us know that this is not true.

But neither did it begin in 1963!

We all know the history of Cyprus began in 1571,GR! Before that the GCs were living very happily under Venetian rule...I sometimes wish the Ottoman's had never invaded Cyprus...I'd like to know what language the GCs would be speaking now..Oh,and what would they be called???

wot an idiot, to suggest that cypriots should be grateful that one exploitative, foreign invader replaced another.

wot language do the invaders speak in the invaded part of cyprus - till 2010? wot are the invaders living there called? and wot do the invaders call this occupied land?

It seems like Bir is right according to the following:

George Chakallis, a distinguished Greek Cypriot lawyer, politician, and historian wrote in 1902: ‘The Church of Cyprus has enjoyed important privileges which were recognized by the Turks since the conquest of the island and always acknowledged whenever a new Archbishop was elected by an Imperial Berat.’ (G. Chakallis, Cyprus Under British Rule (1902), p.25.)

if the church of cyprus helped keep the flock in order under the ottomans – as the invaders were too lazy to keep order themselves – naturally this would have afforded certain privileges. why does this make the birk right?

Did I say you should be grateful for anything,wiseman????

I said I wonder what language you'd be speaking now had the Ottomans not bothered to invade...To that I would now add, what 'religion' would you be practising aswell...Just a little intellectual speculation,re Malaka...
Try it sometimes...

and i challenged your idle speculation with intellectual facts, regarding what the direct descendants of the ottoman invaders have actually imposed on the north of the island, in terms of language, religion and identity. u should try reality sometimes...

No such person seems to have ever existed other than in Turkish/TC sources!

I got suspicious by the poorly spelt name which should’ve been “Shiakalis”!

You will keep on changing the way you write your language won't you?

Is it Yorgadgis or Georgiades, its the same man. Just like 'pathos'

Did your 'Shiakallis' exist? I had a work on Cyprus by a Turkish Cypriot who quoted many Greek written sources. Are you claiming that these are fictitious?

[Get Real!]

Once again we search for the book itself and author which MUST exist...

Only the same four Turkish propaganda sources!
