...with all due respect, the Constitution does not work as it is. a Bicommunal Bizonal Federation is inviting, because, living in one at present is a real life experience that, as a young boy i lived, in a "mixed" (i spit at people who called us this) village. my past, your past, the past, is past. i will not hate those i loved, nor they me, just because we are called by others, "Turks" or "Greeks". perhaps it has more to do with the fact that niggers no longer hang from trees in the USA, that i find it repugnant the thought that you are not "Turkish" or "Turkish"(or "Greek) enough. i suppose if they did, such hatred would thrive to surely have consumed all life on this planet by now. but our lives are and were far more refined, demanding integration not just desgregation, toward ending (as it is today) the Problem. why not recognise the needs which are the same, which we, as Persons, corporate entities where we are One, exist? why not as Individuals therefore, as Cypriots, express this will. Bicommunal does not mean tearing the island in two. it means that there is One, and within this whole where all its Citizens are represented without distinction or discrimination as equal, they choose, by where they reside, to be as well, electors in National Assemblies. many Cypriot Constituencies can be sustained, with self-representation which promotes their distinctions, and provides the services they need in their daily lives; as with the Communal Chamber, Cyprus requires a Constituency which is Greek to exist to have a Cypriot State, so that there can exist other Constituencies with equal Rights, rather than recognition and respect of Minorities within what is by the overwhelming Majority, a Greek state.
Lordo, you should read my stuff carefully, if you dream as i dream of Constitutional Reform. and you should join me if you dare to ask, where is the Greek Constituency, if there is a Republic, and a Turkish Constituency?
rw there should be no greek and turkish constituency but a northern and a southern one. race does not have to be part of it. but two zones there must be.
all those who wish to retrun to their properties must be allowed to and all those who do not must also me respected.
