No one can deny that in their own way each is a great Statesman, and this is the moment they have all waited for, to live as Heroes in Fame, and not in infamy.
It is the Problem, the problem they must solve, for "Them" and the rest of us; intentions count.
...what other solution is there as it is but more war.
A "cease fire" like in Cyprus is not a solution; as 'we' have seen, where the rights of Cypriots have been usurped and replaced by the hateful dogmas of "Greeks" and "Turks".
...if in Cyprus, Cypriots gathered to condemn "This" half for keeping them divided and living in fear, it would say a lot about our own understanding of our own condition, as Human beings as well as Cypriots, and the conditions as they are evolving in Turkey, and Russia, as well as the Ukraine. Such a movement presents big challenges to politicians like these, where we unite as Individuals; despite the fact that as Persons such Leaders have worked very hard to divide us accordingly. People want change, and things have stayed the same for far too long. In many ways the world has not learned the lessons of WWI because we continue to fight among each other, rather than the real enemies which are a threat to us all; 'we' remain impotent under "their" narrative (leaving "them" in control). Internationally speaking, and to the so-called Cypriot Leaders, Cypriots taking to the streets to demonstrate as Cypriots would be noticed and welcome.
...action, not words is needed, as you say Lordo; by 'us': a field of Honor where hearts and bellies fill, where nobody dies (is my dream).
Souvla on the beach; a solution here in Cyprus: fire and steel to make the good food we eat, music and the sounds of laughter thousands strong, for the People by the People who would be against it?
It is a sad day if we have reached a day where only solution for peace is war. Like a good frind of mine says fighting for peace is like fucking for virginity.
Clearly both sides have concerns and they must put them to each other to see if a compromise can be reached. If not then there is only one solution and that is to create two states instead. Anything is better than war.
what will they achieve by war? Do you suppose one day they will win? If Nato could not defeat Taliban how on earth do they expect to defeat the Russian army or economy. No chance, Best make peace and save lives.
