Normally considered a superior sister ally, not only have the Cypriots caught up to Greece in many ways, but have surpassed her in some.
Pretty soon Greece will be looking to Cyprus for support and inspiration..... just a thought.

Like I said, I don't loathe the Greeks the way GR and Milti do.


i wouldn't lend them any money if i were u, though.

Is it safe to assume then, that modern Greece is a disgrace to Hellenism?


Probably yes. Only GCs are true Hellenes nowadays. 8)

when cypriots say cyprus is a greek island, vp, they don't mean a greek island like crete, ie. an island that's part of the greek republic... they mean a hellenic island, ie. an island inhabited for millenia by hellenes... not as in citizens of the hellenic republic, but hellenes as in greeks, like, say a greek from antioch or damascus or constantinople. why are u so stupid, vp that u can't see the distinction? why do u use it as an excuse to gift the northern part of the island to turkey?


I have a pair of marbles in the lost and found. You can pick them up tomorrow between 8am-4-pm. Identification is required. :wink:

You’re just a daft little nincompoop in need of aggrandizement so you’ve climbed on the imagined "Hellene" bandwagon of another country, something they invented in the early 1820s!

It just doesn’t get much more pitiful than that… :lol:

Maybe like you, they don't know what the fuck they mean so they talk utter bollocks out their backsides that leads to confusion and resentment.

:lol: :lol:

The term "Greek Cypriot" is just a British plot to DIVIDE & RULE the island of Cyprus.

As you said, Cypriots(ie Greeks of Cyprus) call themselves CYPRIOTS!
Kipraioi + Tourjoi
where Kipraioi = Greeks, Armenians, Maronites, Latins
where Tourjoi = Turks from 1571+, Turks 1974+

End of story. Stop complicating the situation even more so that the solution(ie LIBERTY OF CYPRUS) is never reached... Then you wonder why people call the filotourkoi TRAITORS. :roll:

So mr klik can you enlighten us a bit what is that factor that can make
Greeks, Armenians, Maronites, Latins... kypreous and not also the Turks us you like to call them back from 1571 and beyond ........ :?:




Same language for starters...

Which apparently is Greek...

Because Cyprus has been Greek for a veeeeeeeeeeeeeery long time (I won't say since forever because a) it's not true b) the "parrots" will return and talk crap again)

You go down the street, have a proper conversation with some random person you just met, then you learn that his surname ends in -IAN (hence Armenian roots). Maronites have fully Greek surnames. Latins mostly too.

Then you have the other side, with Turkish names, speak Turkish only(used to be a wrong statement for the majority but now it's like searching for a particular needle in a stack of needles....) and have to communicate in the lingua franca instead of the domestic language, which is Greek...

Unless you are of the kind who believes that a piece of paper defines who and what you are...

You know so little Klik you will be knock of your feet if you found out how many speak Greek or better Kypriaka on the other side . No a paper cannot defines what your not even DNA. what you FEEL in your heart makes you what you are .but most of you want to define people from their color, language, or religion.
