Η Εκλογή Φειδία (Ντοκιμαντέρ / Ελληνικά) (Fidia's election)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fpg-mp0X6LM


...who are Cinel Senem Husseyin and Koray Basdogrultmaci ?

They are constituents, your constituents. Brave, unknown patriots who you should meet along with many others in the occupied territory, that we may learn from.

Cyprus is not "Greek". Cyprus is not "Turkish". 'We' are Cypriot.

...picnics Fidias, i am waiting for picnics on our beaches. (...and who would be against that?)

Indeed, we (read: you) can do it.

...where is there no "minorities", the so-called TRNC?

You have missed the point. Cypriots are neither "Greek" or "Turkish" if elections are a way to determine "who" they are. We as this island's dwellers have remained Cypriots all these years because not once has a vote been overwhelmingly won by one of "Their" candidates. (There is no denying that.)

And am i that different to you, ask yourself how in some way that we are the same. What is wrong with a BBF? Are all Greeks, "Greeks"? And being Turkish, is "Turkishness" the all encompassing dogma you live by beyond our Universal Principals; the Basic Individual Rights we share, defending them world-wide.

Indeed, Cypriot lives matter; "Turks" and "Greeks" are no different in that regard, being in denial: Cypriots exist and they are not few.

...you should reread my post, but in a different state of mind; peace comes by overcoming your fears, a willingness to change oneself to that end lovingly.

Cheers.

Theocharous, Sizopoulos want to prevent a bad settlement
http://cyprus-mail.com/2015/12/11/70914/


Cypriots cannot stay the way they are. A change is natural, no less.

Neither the "Greeks" or the "Turks" look forward, willing to embrace change to better themselves. Both discuss Human Rights as something secondary to their goals of preserving "Greekness", or "Turkishness".

If Cypriots, because they do exist (and they represent about half of the population either way), have their way, control of the Agenda, it may be that Cypriots will finally be able to demonstrate that it is their diversity that is their strength in an entirely mobile world where as Cypriots they serve as facilitators of exchange.

Beside a strong Federal Government, representing all its Citizens without other distinction or discrimination, as Cypriots, there will exist the possibility of self-representation as Persons, not just as Individuals, with a BBF; I would hope that the possibility of a Greek Constituency, (at another level of Government), within a set of Cypriot Constituencies may allow for the recognition and respect Cypriots, as Cypriots, have for their ethnos.

Mrs Theocharous and Mr Sizopoulos, I think, could better serve their electorate, as Cypriots. As Greek Cypriots, if they avoided being a mirror to the occupation regime, north; "not Greek" / "Greek", "not Turkish" / "Turkish", they would be the better people. New thinking is needed, and is expected of them if they are the States-people they claim to be. I am grateful for their vigilance against the common enemy of Ignorance which led to the Cyprus Problem, in affect the Turkish Problem. But Cypriots, not just Greek Cypriots because they are the overwhelming majority, need Peace; not to be divided.

I am as, vigilant, and against any tribute paid to Turkey, in appeasement, a compromise, or reward, too, because it is just plain wrong on many levels. But i believe the Flag of Cyprus always flies higher. It, is an equal to the Flag of Greece, or the Flag of Turkey, or the Union Jack for that matter. The opposition should decide, are they Cypriot, or "Greek"? As it is, as "Greeks", they fail the rest of us who have a wider vision of Cypriots, or what it means to be Cypriot, Greek or not.

...and if they want to be leaders of "Greeks", with a BBF, the paradox, this opportunity exists for them.

Traitors’ club celebrates 20 years
https://cyprus-mail.com/2024/11/09/trai ... -20-years/


Here they are in all their glory the others as the "others" would have them looked upon, the few and the insignificant. Yet their numbers grow, now for decades, so too the thoughts of Love and its infinite power that they represent. Indeed such men and women gain great Joy from one another's company; artificially torn apart it is something to think about.

...ask yourself/yourselves why Cyprus still "belongs" to Cypriots, and not the "Greeks" and "Turks"?

But for this island's dwellers who have never even once betrayed themselves in all these years by voting overwhelmingly for one of "Their" candidates, such a notion as a Cypriot People survives.

...traitors not to themselves i wait, their silence breached the polity to speak; picnics on their beaches together making souvla and song (under the one Flag that is truly theirs, the Flag of Cyprus, the one that "They" have treated and treat as a rag): an Enosis which is Peaceful, this time a Cypriot way, "Greekness" and "Turkishness" the Problem exposed as one and the same against it.

...indeed, 'our' (read: the Human race) problem with the Problem in Cyprus is that it is not about Greeks vs. Turks, or "Turks" vs. "Greeks", it is about "Greeks"/"Turks" against the Principles that make us as Individuals beyond the Person an equal Greek and Turkish willing to defend the values 'we' have that are Universal.

...indeed. Think carefully because we are in a sense the belly button of the world.

What is the Problem, that in Cyprus it cannot be solved, so that in it (e.g.) the People of Turkey, those in the Ukraine, and dare i say it in Trans-Jordan will find for themselves a fitting way to secure for themselves Freedom, and as Constituencies representing this Liberty, as majorities their recognition and respect for the minorities living among them by providing for their special needs as well.
(...what is a BBF?) Intentions matter.

Indeed it is most heartening to see this small group is news, and how many in the comments section support such "traitors", 'traitors' as such Citizens of the World.
