Atheist wrote:Those who like serving in the army (στρατόκαβλοι) can serve in a small professional army. For me and most people the army was 2 years of our lives wasted. If you question the truth of my statement then I challenge the government to make military service voluntary and then we will see how many 18 years old will join the army for 50 euro per month (or whatever low pay they offer now).

CNG is as dysfunctional as it has always been, and even if it was changed to be more functional it would still be tiny and therefore totally useless against an enemy like Turkey.

You’re contradicting yourself! If the CNG’s current size isn’t good enough for you then what do you expect from a “small professional army”?

And besides, we already have a small professional army running the show we call “monimous” so you’re basically saying that we should just add privates to the monimous aswell so that it’ll go from costing an arm and a leg, to an arm and two legs!

Atheist is a defeatist. The only future he sees is as a vassal state at the best of it. So we might as well pack our bags and leave, and set up some New Cyprus in Greece, as happened with the Asia Minor Greeks, that way we avoid both conflict and vassal status.

You want to live like that?

Most emphatically, categorically NO. Cyprus is the motherland of all Cypriots, those that affiliate themselves to either Turkey or Greece can most certainly go and join their fucking motherlands. As a Cypriot, even at the ripe age of almost 69, I will fight to preserve my nationhood, the island of Cyprus.

It’s funny to read all the scaremongering and propaganda from around the world:

In the latest Israeli-Jordanian spat, the latter are threatening to buy their gas from Cyprus but of course we’re far from being ready to sell… :)

How many months did you serve in the CNG, you pathetic liar? Where were you in 1974?

Piss off! :twisted:

I got to ask whether anyone would be happy serving next to Atheist.

What a liability he is!

People like that need to be made an example of. Now I know why the military is the way it is. It's necessary.
