piratis I fear the term "moderator" is wasted on you, there is nothing moderate in your language!
What properties, what oppression? Most of the colonies that Britain gave freedom to would beg to come back after the shambles of independance. The land you crave so much was given away by the actions of your forebearers when they took up arms against their fellow countrymen in a mad dream of ethnic identity and national re-union with Greece.
On that day they took all they held precious and threw into the arms of fate! I am not going to be accused 32 years later as a thief when I buy a property from an owner holding a title deed from a sane rational civilized authority.
What's your alternative? Watch some Turkish family being machine gunned and their bodies pushed into a ditch by some EOKA thugs, who walk up laughing and give me the keys to their villa for a few quid in Pathos in 1974?
Swear away, but look to yourself. like the Serbs are going to have to for their shameful acts in Bosnia. Sooner or later,you are going to have to come to terms with what your countrymen did in 1974, unless you don't, this awful shame will pass from generation to generation and stain the name of all Greek Cypriots.
