A very nice poem, that certainly makes you think!

Indeed....for, which is this word? Is it already? Is this a call to invent one? If the latter, what would it be?
Let us ruminate on the latter questions if you wish.

Never read such garbage in my life.Another newcomer another fanatic another misguided soul searching for laughs at the expense of others, I wonder if he is a Cypriot or a poor peasant from Anatolia .Your guess is as good as mine.


Dear Admin; I'm trying to be patient for this kind of Cypriots.

''a poor peasant from Anatolia''

Man! Dont remember! Your fathers were live in Anatolia too before We force you to leave these lands.Anatolia is not full of with Turks.Here Greeks, Cypriots live too.
So, I advice you to be polite.Firstly you must show respect to Turks, than we show respect to you too.We have 80million u are just 1.so 8)

Mehmed , my position has been and always will be that the Cypriot people Turkish and Greek are my people .
When I come across non-Cypriots like you and bg Turk I see red. I see in you a foreigner dictating to the natives your brand of unwelcome nationalism. You can be as proud of Turkey until the cows come home. You can be proud that Turkey is your country , that is your privilege , but you see I'm just a poor Cypriot who wants his country to be independent of foreign influence and to have its own identity .You come on the forum with that avatar knowing fully well that the overwhelming majority of Cypriots find it offensive since it is the flag of a nation depriving me and all other Cypriots of our true identity I also ask you to respect all nations that have more than 80 million people, since you think that mere size is enough to warrant my respect.

Thankz for being polite.independent :wink: Its your privilage to be independent too.But Please not in Turkish lands.
Because if you want to be independent in Turkish lands of Cyprus, than all the 84 cities of Turkey will want to be independent too. :D So :wink: let forget about dream about Turkish lands. :P I gave you 12 islands. I gave you a Mediterrainen Sea.You can be enough independent there 8)

Merhaba Greetings. Where in Turkey do you come from, your love of Ottoman poetry and history is very obvious. I enjoy your knowledgable and informative contributions. Are you university based?

Please enlighten us

Iam admirer Greek history as much as Turkish history.My hometown is full of with greek buildings :P But when i see stupit greek nationalists, im getting angry & i start talking nonsense.i know it is not so easy to be forgiven after hurt people, they are guilty as much as me.

If you have something to ask me about Turkish history, im a good source for this 8)
