First, these incidents are extremely rare. A handful only - which given the thousands of crossings over several years is testament to the remarkable tolerance of G/Cs. Especially when you consider that our land in the north is under occupation.

Second, no-one is excusing any assault on visitors to the free areas. Most G/Cs are proud of how prosperous, cosmopolitan and tolerant the free areas have become. T/Cs should come and see what they are missing out on.

If a few hot-heads have reacted it's unusual but in a sense understandable. Things are not normal in Cyprus. Opening the crossings does not solve the issue of the occupation. Until Turkey leaves, then things will remain on edge. Turkey's presence in the north is a huge provocation in itself. That's the way it is. No point in kidding ourselves that the problem is anything but the result of the continuing occupation of our country.

Did the GCs actions contribute to the "problem" you refer to?

What problem do you think I'm talking about? It's clear as daylight what I'm saying. Only an illiterate moron would fail to understand it.

Ill simplify it for you as we know you have problems understanding, you state the problem is the occupation of the TRNC by the TA, did the GCs contribute to this problem?

What "problem" are you on about? I'm afraid I don't see what point you're trying to make.

People always want to justify or find excuses for their actions. I agree with Pyros assertion that no one likes their country invaded, the land and people ravaged; but statesmen like this only triggers off Piratis old worn out argument of who started first.

Oh, of course, the Cyprus problem only began in 1974; how remiss of me.

I though we were talking about the rare incidents of vehicles being attacked in the free areas. What are you saying? That this is a continuation of the 1960s? A few empty cars being damaged? Seriously?

The death rate of the bees in Brazil you wally......your problem with the TA being in Cyprus for 37 years keeping the peace while we still try to find a solution, you claim this is the reason for the incidents in the south.

The question is did GCs contribute to the main factor you believe is the cause of the attacks on TCs by GCs in the south?

What the fuck are you on about? Which T/Cs have been attacked by bees in the South? How is that our fault?
