The above is Michalis Tsiakkas, a 62 year old who sells lottery tickets in Ledra street. The other day he was approached by a group of some eight ELAM "patriots" who were handing out leaflets. One of them asked him "are you for or against the immigrants". Michalis answered "my dear boys, with your logic all the Cypriots should leave England, Canada, America and the Greeks should leave Germany, Belgium and Australia.

The scoundrels jumped on hapless Michalis and the result you can see in the photo.

Remember how some forumers rushed to support these bastards and even tried to convince us that they were only after the illegal immigrants rather than all the foreigners?

Yialoser, seems to have disappeared to make a comment!

Bananiot, please keep us posted if you have news of any anti-fascist protests in Cyprus. Thanks.

Real fascists are those who take single sideline incidents and attempt to create impressions, placing an entire people in bad light. One only wonders whether on purpose! If not, you should want to be more respectful for the society which provides you your living. It would be the right thing to do.

These kind of incidents must condemned and the perpetrators put behind bars.

[NEVERSAYNEVER]

These " ignorant" "bastards " ought to be put behind bars. More than 300 thousand Cypriots live in the Diaspora , are we in the Diaspora to be treated the same way as these ignorant peasants by the local fascists. Condemnation of such hideous acts is the only response my dear Antifon .
There is no excuse whatsoever for racist attacks , the ignorant sods need to be challenged by the law . Already Cyprus is emerging as a potentially racist nation, we do not have to put up with such barbaric behaviour.
Talking about Cypriot emergence as a potential racist nation let us also make sure that the crooks fleecing foreign property investors are also dealt with by the law. For crying out loud these unscrupulous greedy developers have hijacked the good name of our island its time they are dealt with by the law.
Greed rules supreme in Cyprus , greed that has an insatiable appetite , an appetite satisfied only by more and more greed.

Which entire people? You mean all of the people in ELAM? If so, these worms only have to put out a disclaimer denouncing the so-called brave act on the part of a group of youths in beating up a defenceless old man - himself Greek Cypriot - in the name of ELAM, otherwise they remain guilty by implication. Incidentally, you have not told us if you yourself deplore this disgraceful incident or not, I see. Do you?

Or do you mean the whole Cypriot people? I do not think that the whole
Cypriot people, a large number of whom vote for AKEL, support fascism in any way. I hope the vast majority of Cypriots are as revolted and alarmed by this incident as I am, and if and when they stage a protest against this outrageous event, or any similiar such event, I want to come along and show my solidarity. Kapish, man from A.U.N.T.I.E.

My address is flat 201, Kola Court 2, Mihail Angelou, Agios Athanasios, Limassol. Go on, loudmouth, send a gang of your black shirted hoodlums to sort me out. You will see how afraid I am of fascist scum.

PS - virtually all of my income comes from exports from Cyprus, including to Turkey. Stuff that in your pipe and smoke it.

If you have nothing else positive to say, and are not going to send your thugs round to sort me out, then just buzz of and google up some juicy anti-Turkish propaganda to post on your pathetic apology for a blog.

PS, Auntie, when I was a student in the UK many years ago, I was involved in the fight against the fascist National Front and was even hospitalised as a result. The National Front had an anti-immigrant platform, which they also - like ELAM now seems to be doing - put into practice on the streets with fists and knives. So, actually, I was doing my small bit to defend the legitimite rights of immigramts from places like Cyprus and Greece. In other words, I was helping to defend cherished members of your Greek master race. Get you fascist skull around that!

[Tim Drayton]

PS, Auntie, I came to Cyprus after 2004 as an EU citizen, availing myself of precisely the same right to come and settle here as a Cypriot has any where in the EU. I can speak fluent Turkish and could have chosen to buy a GC-owned property in the north at a knock-down price, and have lived quite comfortably in the pseudo state. Instead, I chose legitimacy. I bought a new flat on legitimate GC owned land at the market price, have set up a small business here virtually all of whose income dervies from exports, and pay all may taxes, even on cash transactions. You decide. Do you want foreigners like me in Cyprus or not?

Agreed. On the crooked developers as well.

That is why I said "These kind of incidents must condemned and the perpetrators put behind bars."

But highlighting an incident like this to paint with a brush the entire Cypriot society is plain wrong.
