Strange that YOU would ask this question when you support the "trnc". A "trnc" can happen only with the ethnic cleansing of GCs from the north part of Cyprus. If the ethnic cleansing of GCs from their homes doesn't bother you then why would it be any different for TCs? Are you racist?
Sotos, it was racism on both sides that caused the problem in the first place. If such prejudices that caused the split in 1963 still exist, you think that abruptly bringing back together both parties will extinguish the racist attitudes of both sides? Probably not. Various posts on this forum seem to bear this out. Still, if you have an idea for how reconciliation between the TC's and GC's can work in Cyprus, I'd be glad to hear it. It's just that I honestly believe that the gulf between the communities cannot be bridged and that a seperation of Cyprus into two countries - no matter how unsatisfactory this solution is - is the only way to keep the peace. You may call that racism, but to my mind it is nothing more than pragmatism.
BTW, I am sorry if this view offends you, but what else is there?
