Exactly my point Lena. A few broken windows does not a racist country make.(Did you know I write poetry  ). As for threats...well we know a poster here that is good at those, even death threats. Lets not get carried away with stereotypes. |
I notice that you write poetry my dear zan!!!! 
And you said about words...here is not just words...its threats and damages and you never know if those threats will be facts soon. Lets hope it wont. Do you think that its the first time that those things happened? The hole story its like a cd...you hear it once and then you put it away for a little bit and then you want it again! You believe that those are just rumours? Those things never happened? |
No Lena, they happened and they will happen again. The point is that they are happening all over the world and Greece has been reported as being the most racist country in the world second only to France. I have to drive past a mosque every friday in the UK and since this rubbish that is going on in Iraq, the police have to oversee the prayers not from the Arab attacks but from racists that are attacking them. That does not make every Brit a racist. There have been racist attacks in the south and many more in Greece. There were racist attacks in Cyprus from the RoC government and there were killings but we are constantly asked to forget those and become Cypriots again. Who has more right to refuse???????? |
I am not saying that you are wrong. I know that all this things happen all over the world...but this doesnt mean that are not racists. If those are Brits, Greeks, Turks or Cypriots...they are racists...If they are not it means that they respect each other in spite of colour, religion and country!!! |

Of course they are racist but they are idiots that are copied all over the place. I wonder what it would be like to take all these idiots from their countries and put them all together. Do you think that they would think that the other was a racist or would they all unite and come and get us. |

Wait racists is one thing and idiots is another...if we take all the idiots then probably they will come and get us...are so many...but if we take the racists...probably they was going to kill each other before do anything to us!!! |

Here is one of my poems for you Lena. I write mostly childrens poems.
Stand in line.
by zan
What if I saw every-man
Standing in a line
Would they stretch up to the moon
Given enough time
Where would I fit into it
Would there be some sort of law
Would I be with my own kind
Or is it first one through the door
If my hair was perfect straight
Would I be right at the back
What if I was wrongly placed
Would I be open to attack
What if I was far to short
Or my skin a different hue
Could you find it in your heart
To let me stand in front of you.
Maybe I’ll put up a fight
To find my rightful place
Then I know you’ll let me through
With such anger on my face
What if I stood very still
In a corner on my own
Would you be much happier
And leave me well alone
How long would it be, you think
For the line to dissipate
Because initial goals have changed
Into jealousy and hate
So perhaps we should take more time
And not file in line so soon
And try to learn a little more
Before reaching for the moon. |

So you want to tell me that Turkey is not much much worst than EU countries? Do you really believe that? Or you just say it to yourselves to feel better?  If we asked the Taliban I am sure they would also give the same excuses like you. !! You have to understand that there is the not so good, and then there is the very bad. Saying that somebody else is not perfect is not an excuse for Turkey to be so bad! |

Don't see you with a brush and some paint getting rid of the racist slogans in the south. |

| racism is when you hate people because of their race not when you demonstrate against those that illegally occupy your country! |
