Hello Rousias.
A great example of what I did not post.
I am more than willing to debate MY posts.

Dear Dikeos
Your experience in this article shows a 'REAL' situation. We can learn how the TC's percieve and feel about these attempted acts of colonisation in this illegal occupation of northern Cyprus.
Your story proves a very valuable and I reiterate 'REAL' situation. The man seemed to be welcoming, hospitable, genuine, and true. The story depists how it is and some of the pro TC members on this forum should take a momment and think about what this means as opposed to coming back this off topic answers.

Dear Rosias, you sound like an intelligent young man, can you tell me what "illegal occupation" means in real terms?

Army bases every 10km?. NO, Rubbish strewn everywhere and poor roads YES, but these are improving, though the Embargoes dont help.Lets face facts can you ever see the North being handed back to ROC control?, i'm sure attrocities where carrıed out by both sides, but what for the future?. Do we really want future generations of children growing up with this engrained hatred?.i too have had GCs arrive at my house telling me how they remember their childhood there, then the accusations start (THE ONLY PROBLEM ??- MY HOUSE WAS BUİLT 2 YEARS AGO ON WHAT WAS AN OLİVE GROVE!!).

That olive grove was owned by someone ttoli dont you think? Someone planted those olive trees with the intention of their children's children enjoying them.
No i dont see the North being handed back. we live and fight for a brighter future for those who rightfully deserve their houses and land back.
Welcome to the forum ttoli.
best regards.

Dear Rosias, you sound like an intelligent young man, can you tell me what "illegal occupation" means in real terms?
Dear Eric . . . I understand that you feel and believe that Turkey did not illegally invade and are not illegally occupying . . The illegal invasion is a result of exploiting and violating the right of Turkey to intervene with military power . . If the purpose was to protect the TC's then it was unnecessary to invade in such a horrific manner, kill throusands in cold blood and terrorise communities, artifacts, churches, and force 200,000 people from the houses . . 37.5% of the island is under illegaly occupation still 32 years later.. Why? to protect the TC's?? No - this was clearly not the objective . . We see this with no solution after 32 years? Will our people get their homes back? Will the fate of the 1600 missing persons to answered? I sadly think not. This illegaly occupation is further defined with the cotinued acts of illegaly colonisation . ..Lifting of embargoes? Illegally shipping in 120,000 Turks? This is by all means illegal occupation! What do you call it ?? Protecting the TC's ??
In that case I ask you . . Why do alot of the TC's prefer to visit and live in the south??

Dear Ttoli
Welcome to the forum . .
Hatred is certainly the main problem in coming even close to a solution to the Cyprus problem. . . It is also sad Turkey deliberatly did not resolve the situation in 1974 and that it has taken 32 years with still no solution . .
This proscrastination has certainly NOT helped the hatred situation.. these 32 years have angered GC's and has allowed Turkey to continue to illegally occupy 37.5% of the island. Furthermore, it has allowed Turkey to illegally colonise and import 120,000 illegal Turkish settlors. .
I agree, it is a very sad thing for new generation and future generations to be born into . . It is not fair to bring new generations into a pseudo state . .Whats even worse is that the illegal Turkish settlors are having childred in the north . . This is making the situation even mmore messy and unfair on all!
You refer to the new and future generations, but what about the existing generations and the generation of 200,000 Cypriots that were forced from thier homes and not allowed to return? What about the families of those people and the thousands dead and missing? What about these people?? Ofcouse you are going to raise the issue of future generations after 32 years . . Cypriots have waited patiently for a solution but the more time that passes the slimmer the chance for a viable and fair solution and the more illegaly colonisation . . .This is unfair on the inhabitants of both the north and south
