No wonder why most Brits and Britain so strongly opposed/oppose, doubt and mock the Geekness of the GREEK Cypriots. No wonder why the colonials and their agents and their doggies in Cyprus try so hard to disconnect the Greek Cypriots from our GREEK roots.
No wonder why most of the "Cypriots" who express any kind of affection for this flag, with the exception of some food faithed but deluded individuals) are the Choirokoitian wannabees, the "anglopliktoi" the "Francolevantines" and the fifth columnists.
P.S. 1 Watching the vid, I heard the guys saying that by hoisting that flag they were honoring ELDYK. They could not hoist a CY flag to do that could they?
P.S. 2 Maybe CAP is right that it would be appropriate to also hoist the ELDYK flag. But that they could not do without the official permission of both the regiment as well as the RoC authorities.
The flag of Cyprus proudly represents a people who have come through a lot of adversity from Greece, Turkey and the UK to have a well earned self-determination and an international presence.
It is waived with absolute and unashamed pride at International events:
It's a pity that the Greek wannabes refuse to learn from history that whilst the 1960 constitution was unviable, this had been resolved in 1963 and by 1967 Cyprus was an undisputed normally functioning democracy.
I always suspected you never had a clue about what the CYProb is all about. No am sure.
