Yes there are hundreds of millions of us outside or Turkey, just c*nts like you there, you wouldnt understand.
Your beef about time informing the world of your internal attrocities must be eating you up.
Roll on Tim, just keep em coming, blackmail attempts by these dickheads should not stop you.


Tim you still haven't received a single message from a Gezi protestor or from someone who is not a south Cyp enosis dickead. A standard Gezi protestor would probably ask you what your real intentions are by entertaining forever loser enemy b1453 and you wouldn't have a logical answer anyway.


Are you a tool of the Turkish government, or just a tool..?

BTW I am no Cypriot nor a supporter of Enosis.

Personally while I share Cap's POV that there is to little attention to Cypriot matters (and have no truck at all with the Helleno Nazi Fascists exemplified by Kuru, the Youloser and gIG) I think this topic is important because it shows the measure of who Cyprus is dealing with on the part of the illegal Turkish Occupying forces who have their hands up the arses of their so-TRNC pseudo state puppets.


It doesn't show anything enemy supporter. What you see is AKP government. CHP, AKP and MHP voters pretty much share same feelings when it comes to Cyprus. So even if the government changes, there will be no change to Turkey's Cyp policy. Long live TRNC.


...and if you are a "better" Turk, stpier, you would hope that the template found in Cyprus would work for Turkey, because it is in Turkey where a BBF is truly needed. if it is a Sovereign State you want instead of Constituencies, here, in Cyprus, you had better prepare for an existence where Turkey is divided as well. beyond Cyprus, the "Turks" share a lot of similarities, it seems, with the "Greeks" of Cyprus, when it comes to "minority' rights; thank goodness that like in Cyprus, not all Turks are "Turks". even if the Parties have similar intentions for Cyprus and the Problem, the forces in Turkey are focused on much bigger issues. Gezi Park is about trees, but it is not exclusively the issue of a University Campus, of course you have the Liberty to watch penguins on TV.

...have you read my manifesto?

Turkey to raise voice for world's oppressed, Erdoğan says

Turkish prime minister has reiterated that Turkey will continue to raise its voice for world's oppressed people as long as the Turkish nation stands behind his government.

Tens of thousands Alevis rally in Istanbul in a protest that passed peacefully.

"... Thousands of Alevis gathered in a massive rally in Istanbul’s Kadıköy district on Nov. 3, demanding equal citizenship rights and freedom of faith, while also raising their voice against projects aiming to “assimilate Alevis.”

Demonstrators chanted slogans such as “We won’t be the state’s Alevis,” and “We will never bend the knee to injustice,” as well as slogans referring to the anti-government Gezi Park protests that were sparked in May. ..."

Hurriyet also carries an interview with the Rector of the ODTU, Mr Ahmet Acar.

A very readable interview that gives a lot of background to the ODTU and its history of clashes with authorities in Turkey going back 50 years. We learn that the ODTU sits on a massive 4,000 hectares of land and has an ethos that encourages inquiry.

Here's the Rector's answer to just two questions..

"... What is METU’s philosophy, if we are talking about raising future citizens?

METU means independent inquiry; it means asking questions. You should have the mental set up to ask your own questions, and conduct independent research to seek answers or solutions. When you are scientifically-minded you don’t take anything for granted. After all, science is a culture of doubt. METU is about asking for the best, and working to make the best happen, whatever it takes to reach the best solution. It is a search for excellence as such.

How do you connect Gezi events with the METU incidents?

People who have been participating in the Gezi movement or opposing them, have associated METU incidents with Gezi as an overall opposition to a heavy-handed government. It is seen by some as related to Gezi protests. But comparatively it is a more localized issue.

No matter what the connection is, we have been telling people all along - we as a university believe that liberties and individual freedoms are part of university life and of democratic society, and people should feel free to express their opinions, get organized to raise their voices, but on the other hand people should refrain from violence in their demonstrations. Unfortunately, there have been so many clashes with the police who have used tear gas quite liberally. It is a type of blanket reaction that does not discriminate even innocent by-standers. ..."

This thread attracted more than 350 visitors over the weekend. If just one of those was a person who was genuinely looking for information about the ongoing protests in Turkey, and was able to find information from sources favourable to the protest movement, then I consider my efforts to have been worthwhile.

Part of the construction work on the controversial road through the Middle East Technical University campus has caved in. Owing to a burst water pipe, the path of the road has turned into a stream.

Following a statement by Prime-Minister Erdoğan that male and female students cannot live in the same building, the student union Genç-Sen has occupied the Ankara premises of the Kredi Yurtlar student dormitory organisation in protest at this attack on students’ private lives. They say they will not end the occupation until all students who were evicted from their dormitories for participation in the Gezi protests are readmitted.
