I think you will all be waiting a very long time.

Greece can't even stand up for itself and it is going to rescue Cyprus?

I think Greece needs to grow some bollocks first. It is almost pathetic really.

Greece is like that little kid that was always picked on at school and just sulks with its little brother (Cyprus) who is stupid enough to still look up to this worthless bitch of a nation.

Get a spine and stand up for yourself. Where is your self respect?

perhaps if greece had had the balls to stand up to turkey and exercise its rights to exploit its own offshore hydrocarbon resources its wouldn't be in the economic mess it woz in....

Yes, that is true.

Do you remember when greece's financial mess was initially exposed a while ago, you had all these fucked up Greeks blame the Americans, Jews, Goldman Sach, and the derivatives markets when all along they found themselves in this mess from their own stupidity, corruption, and lack of bollocks? I mean, you got to laugh.

They are a bankrupt, corrupt society, and they still don't have the bollocks to extract their resources. this is how turkey wins the war, without a shot being fired. just send a couple a warships to scare the dickless Greeks and their economy will crumble.

Turkey 10 - Greece 0

If Greeks aren't embarrassed, then they should be.

[Get Real!]

In case Greeks are wondering why they are taunted, its just unacceptable when you’ve got squadrons of fighter jets, a large navy, 600 odd tanks, and 170,000 odd conscripts + reservists, to never stand up for oneself!

The enemy is constantly TESTING you to see if and how you’ll respond because he wants to evaluate your courage and abilities so imagine how disappointed the Turks must be all the time!

You think they care if they lose an F14 and 20 year old pilot? If they cared they wouldn’t send him in danger in the first place, but they are happy to risk a small sacrifice to see if and how you’ll respond. It’s an ASSESSMENT.

Now's the time for the Athenians to follow the lead of brave little CY and claim their EEZ in the Aegean and beyond. Now's the time to say pollocks to Turkey's casa bello (or whatever it's called) and show us they've got some archichia (or whatever they're called).

They won't do it, bill. Recent Greek foreign policy has been built on one idea: EU accession will force Turkey to start behaving like a civilised country and obey international law including signing up to the Law of the Sea. Now that Turkey's EU ambitions lie in ruins, the Greeks now face the prospect of having to deal with a belligerent Turkey at a time when Greece's international reputation has never been lower.

You'd think the prospect of energy revenue coming to the rescue of the Greek economy would make the Greeks act swiftly on sorting out their EEZ. But it looks like they'd rather go bankrupt than risk offending the Turks. It's sad.

Yes, you are right of course mate, they won't claim their EEZ rights, but for a few minutes a couple of days ago a couple of things came together in my head that thought might embolden the Athenians to claim the EEZ. One was references by several speakers at the EP that spoke of any poss CY gas/oil in terms that described it also as Europe's Oil/Gas and the second were the actions by Israeli jets and reports of sparring between Greek and Turkish jets over the Aegean which may be an indication of a co-ordinated response under the new Defence Alliance.

Coordinated response?

well let's hope so, but judging by Greece's past record, they couldn't coordinate a root in a knock shop.

Bill, if Cy keeps looking up to this lost, meaningless and irrelevant nation, then it too will be doomed to the same irrelevance (unless they get their act together).

I was always told that if you hang with turkeys, then you become one. If you hang with eagles, then you will soar!

So what can cyprus do?

Well, it can ditch the shameless bitch (Greece) and join other more serious nations such as Israel.

[Capt J Sparrow]

In the last few months we have seen the revolting Arab Spring, where revolting Arabs stood against their shameless tyrants. They showed great bollocks in doing this against the likes of Arssad, and Queerdafi.

now, if I were a proud greek (if there is such a thing) then would do the exact same thing to ALL shameless Greek politicians who have destroyed greece. These polliticians should be hung in Syntagma, right in front of Parliament.

the last time Greece showed any bollocks was in 1987, when papandreou senior was going to sink the Turkish dinghy in Greek waters. The Turks shit themselves and begged America to talk Greece out of striking this dinghy and the Turkish navy.

I wonder why the apple has fallen far from the tree, junior?
