So why the Turkish flag on Pentadaktylos still?

How can we solve it? (keep it civilized)

Welcome back Miltiades! :D

What a Plonker !!!!!!! :shock:


From pure curiosity, I analyzed a few older Milti posts as reference.

Can you spot the similarities in writing style and grammar?

The Cypriot will reply to your points no doubt Filitsa.

May I also make a point here.
To be a Cypriot first and foremost does not exclude being a Greek Cypriot , a Turkish Cypriot , Armenian Cypriot etc.
Your grandfather on his arrival in the USA did exactly what every other immigrant did . Looked for his own community , a perfectly understandable and natural selection. I doubt whether he ever denied that he was a Greek Cypriot and neither did any other immigrant.
The issue here is the fact that our island is now an independent island and where at the time your grandfather emigrated to the USA aspirations were alive and dreams were being encouraged of Enosis with Greece , today those aspiring and dreaming of Enosis are a tiny minority. We have been independent , or since the invasion a part of Cyprus at least , for almost 50 years. It is time to embrace our nation and time to reassess our commitment to our OWN nation and our own destiny as a nation made up of G/Cs T/Cs and many others , just as for instance the UK having English , Welsh Scottish etc.

As far as the Greek national anthem the matter is simple. It does not represent all Cypriots therefore it is not what to other nations their NA is , a uniting symbol , the opposite in fact is the result . It divides the people of Cyprus , time therefore to ditch it , time for a NA reflecting the Cypriot people .


You may be right Paphitis. :D

Oh please....cut out the 'SIR'. Just Deniz will suffice. I stopped being 'SIR' on Jan 7. (I do however wish that more forumers were as polite as yourself :lol: )


If someone is polite, I always doubt he's a Cypriot. :lol:

Jan 7th??

Is Deniz both a boy and girl name in Turkish?


It is indeed a Unisex name. And no I am no Hermaphrodite.



I had a lady friend called Deniz once. Real classy lady.


Then she could not have been a 'lady'. :wink:

I remember a rumour circulating years ago that some Commandos tried to destroy the flags but were unsuccessful for some reason.
Perhaps a Cypriot urban myth?

oooooh , you boys may just be right. Mind you all that needs to be done is to avoid the use of the plonker word.

So after 37 years the patient wakes up from its coma, it doesn't like what it sees and demands it be put straight back onto life-support!

Isn't it simpler just to put the poor bastard out of its misery?


Thank you for showing once again how you want the TCs.
