The T negotiator/s are wrong because rights to citizenship are civil and political rights, not human rights. The GC negotiator/s are wrong because they can't control reproduction, not even of their 'own people'.
And this forum thread is misleading because most posters (especially GC posters) have fallen for the T. negotiators confusion.
Like so much on CF, a mess made messier.

Who are the racists? A nation that turns beautiful, centuries old churches into mosques?; a nation that destroys religious artefacts because it doesn't register in their (nowhere near as old) beliefs?
Who are the fascists? A nation that invades a small island with tanks, jet-fighters, napalm, machine guns and more soldiers than there are inhabitants?; a nation of people who rape, maim and murder unarmed civilians, including women, children, the elderly and priests?; a nation that divides a country and continues to illegally stay in that divided nation?; an army who shoot defenceless people climbing a flag pole?; a nation that spits at and throws missiles at visiting Cypriot football teams?
Who are the fanatical nationalists? A popluation of people who put a huge flag on a mountain, in an illegally occupied capital, and proceed to mount huge spot lights so the flag is lit up at night?; a poulation whose flag is the inverted colours of its parent nation?; a nation that spits at and throws missiles at visiting Cypriot football teams?
Who are the bigots? A population whose neighbours have fought to get crossings open so they can come across the border and earn more money in a week than they would normally earn in three months?
