Lets not argue about history, I m sure that was not the aim of this documentary or its producer.

For those G/C on this site who haven`t seen it, I advise them to watch it. In the past I have watched G/C documentaries about G/C suffering.

Piratis have you watched it? I think you ought to.

Saint Jimmy,

how did you put that image under your name?

I have a photo of myself that I would like to add, how would I do it?

[Saint Jimmy]

have you not kicked us out of the republic in 1963, forced us to live in enclaves, invite greeks to occupy cyprus and finally unite the island with greece, none of these would have happened..

tcypriot,

I agree with what your post, had we not done all that, things would have been better (hesitant to use 'perfect') and Cyprus would probably still be united.

I have one question, I am a bit fuzzy on this point: I have the impression that what we were taught in school was that (for some indefinite reason) TCs decided to leave the Republic and gather together in enclaves. I also remember reading in Clerides's book that all this happened after the Koffinou thing and because the municipality thing could not be resolved. Is that right?

How do you mean we kicked you out of the Republic? Do you mean we demanded that you leave? Did we not allow you to live in GC villages and practically force you to live in enclaves?

These are honest questions, really! I'm just looking for your perspective on what had happened. Thanks

Saint Jimmy,

If you really want to find out information then I would suggest you look at the the following web site.

www.cyprus-conflict.net

There is munch information on there, some of it conflicting, but it will give you a very good background to the troubled history of Cyprus.

Thanks, man, but the link won't work

And, anyway, I was more interested on how TCs know things. Is that a web-page created by GCs? Aren't most web-pages concerning the problem biased, one way or another?

Sorry! My mistake.

Thanks

Who is he? Damn thing is taking ages to download! It's still at 18%

It would seem that the server limits the output of a download stream. Using a download program like getright allows you to open multiple streams (upto 4 with the 'free' version) which speeds up the download by about 4 times - if you have a connection able to support that. Just thought it might be of some use to mention this. (I have downloaded it but not got round to watching it yet).

I managed to watch it, very sad, admire Mr Agastinyiotis, a brave man.

In the documentary, Did anybody witness the middle aged woman giving her nephew (one of three guys seated outside a house) a hard time?

All of a sudden, "Be Mahmut, ma nasil muslumansin be? gavurlari topladin?"
I thought that was really funny, reminds me of my mother!

Saint Jimmy,

Hmmm... not sure if you could get your own picture there... One thing is that the image has to be up to 80X80 pixels, but your picture must be more than that, so no dice, and two is that you have to go to your profile (top of page, first on second row) to edit it, and then you have to either choose an avatar from the gallery, or stick a url in there (a url is the address of a picture, found by right-clicking on it, choosing 'properties' and copying the url from there to your profile edit page), so that probably means it's gotta be a picture from the internet...

But, my computer literacy is very, very close to that of an 8-year old, so I guess you could ask a grown-up
