No Michael I am not happy - in an ideal world everyone would have their land back and everyone would live together again. (did they ever - happily??) All I know is what I am told' - yes I saw that a Turkish Cypriot got some land back - but what about the man who 'owns' Larnaca airport? He was told that he could get compensation after the solution???

PS I am here to listen and learn !!!

Tess, I agree with you that everyone should get their land back. Not only their land but their legal, human and democratic rights as well. Do you agree? I do. Can you get Erdogan Talad and mainly the military elite of Turkey to agree with us as well? Because until today they insist on illegality. Legality was never an option accepted by them. They would instead prefer to legalize their illegalities.

Empty threats never got anyone anywhere.

I have followed the messages on this board for a while now and feel compelled to make a few observations.

Is it fair to say that the Cyprus problem is becomes a bigger problem because of the biased opinions, tunnel attitudes and lack of tolerence for others of a different opinion or culture. Is this what democracy is all about?

When i registered for this forum I had to agree to terms and conditions in fact this is a quote from the terms and conditions -:

Personal attacks are not allowed - Don't attack others. Personal attacks on others will not be tolerated. Challenge others' points of view and opinions, but do so respectfully and thoughtfully without insult and personal attack.

There are several posts on here which are clearly rascist and and show quite clearly why Cyprus has the problems that it has. I also have to add that there are also many posts by people who are at least open for debate and willing to have an open discussion about the many problems here in Cyprus and are keen to see not only a solution and are keen to hear ideas, with an open mind, on how the issues in Cyprus will be solved.

I have a couple of friends in the UK who are both TC and GC. It doesn't bother them what each other are they are just good friends. They have open discussions about the Cyprus problem and if necessary, on certain points agree to disagree. Both of these people witnessed things that I am glad i didnt have to witness as a young child, however one thing that they do agree on is that there was and is faults on both sides even to this day. They do agree that until their generation and maybe their childrens geraration becomes older then the problem may never be solved due to the bad feeling amoungst the generation(s) above them.

I have read with interest "Michaels" postings which at least are consistent. He appears to have a dislike to everyone who is British and Turkish and also dislikes anyone else who has visited the Northern side of the "Green Line" whom he calls a criminal. What i find ironic is that he wants his land back which was left in 1974 and live 40 miles from a country which he loathes and people who come from their. Whilst "Michael" may have a story to tell of how he was forced from his property, however there are many sad stories on both sides. While he has my sympathies for what happened to him and his family, so does every other Cypriot who had to go through similiar things. What i dont understand is that most Cypriots who live abroad live in Australia, UK, US etc etc seem to be more racial tolerant.

The problems wont change in Cyprus until the attitiudes do. What has happened can not be changed however what can be forged is a future which is suitable to both communities, however you cant and wont please everyone regardless of what settlement comes whenever it comes.

What should happen is legality, democracy and respect to human rights. Does anybody have the right of rejecting any of the above as "not suitable"?

Human rights must be restored immediately and unconditionally but under the jurisdiction of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.
