...what hatred, if you don't recognise pain?
...is it so hard to imagine anyone who saw the changes Modern History brought to this island, witnessed its pain? is it so hard to recognise that what was wrong in '63, was wrong in '74, for the same reason? why should we naturally assume that "Greekness" is a quality that is somehow better than "Turkishness", or by association Cypriots are "Greeks", Turks are "Turks"?
Lordo is a poet, (i find him bitter with a hint of hope,) don't you know it? maybe the youtube i saw was not the one you saw if you pushed the link that started this conversation, but i found it compelling too, and frankly a pleasure because i was visiting Grokked's channel. Akinci brings hope, especially after a man like Eroglu, i am hopeful that the intention is not the same, although he is willing, in effect, to start where the negotiating ended. aren't you hopeful?
...he (Lordo) is an individual who questions authority/Authority, put in that perspective, what is wrong with that?
(it is up to us, the rest of us, in effect to decide what of it has truth, the rest of us to seek what is in effect the truth, bill mostly is really good at it, when it comes instead to facts.)
just saying, although i get your point Paphitis.
