It may sound harsh but what has my life got to do with yours and why shold you have a say in mine when I do not want the slightest to do with yours, stick to your own backyard not mine, leave Cyprus to those that have chosen to live here.
So what are you saying, just because one does not live in a certain country, least of all the one where one was born should not get involved what so ever what ever injustices may go on in that country? Is this what you are saying VP? If so, then you really didn't care when the Apartheid system of "Democracy" ruled South Africa for a very long time. If it weren’t for the reactions of the world, South Africa today would still be under Apartheid rule, much like what Annan Plan would have been that you had voted for. That tells me, that if you can benefit yourself personally from injustice on others, it is OK with you as long as you are the benefactor. Did you not support Mavi Marmara going to Gaza and condemn Israel killing 9 Turkish nationals because at least on surface they were going to support the Palestinians from the injustices by Israel? If you did not support, then once again you are saying, "I'm OK Joe, the hell with the rest of you"!
You have ZERO right to tell anyone, specially to those who were born in Cyprus as Cypriot citizens that they have no right to get involved politically or otherwise, specially when there are those who want to break up their country. Then again, you need to be a Cypriot to really understand that, which all accounts you really are not, because you have ZERO connection to the "trnc" since it is an artificial institution created illegally at the expense and misery of others where you have NO ancestral connection. You have moved to a place to benefit from others misfortunes. It's not as if in your mind you have moved back to Cyprus from the UK where you were born and raised to where your family’s ancestors came from. No, in your mind you have moved to some "country" called "trnc". That being the case, why do you stick your nose into the RoC's business since as far as you are concerned the RoC is a foreign country south of the Green Line?
I have a right to stick my nose into the affairs of the entire island, since the RoC is the whole island as far as I and the world is concerned. But since you think others should not concern themselves with Cyprus who does not live there, then you should remove yourself from Cyprus Forum since it relates to the RoC for ALL of Cyprus. So, do as you preach will you and stop telling Cypriots abroad to mind their own business and not get involved in Cyprus, their ancestral homeland.
