It would be not only a futile war but a catastrophic one for our island. Like or not Cyprus on her own can not win a war against Turkey. End of the matter.
I'm sorry miltiades! I do not subscribe to your negativity or theories.
I have seen a country of 25 million go to war with a country of 250 million.
You can do anything and Turkey is not as strong as you think they are. I'm not saying to go to war, but it is a contingency or scenario that can't be ruled out. With the right backers and supporters, anything is possible. The reason why we need the right allies.
Israel is able to go to war and defeat countries totaling some 1 billion people - basically the entire Arab World if necessary.
They plan for it, and prepare for it. Even the women are trained killers and will be on the front line. This is what Cyprus should do as well. Every 18 year old lass should be in the CNG for compulsory service. No more lipstick, eyeliner and they can shave their heads and trim their nails. Sorry, but that is just the way it should be. And no more Koupepkia! Everyone eats the same shit (slops)! And no leave because you know people in high places. That's what I call equal rights.
If only I was the RoC President! The Troika will love me ...
