Look at Mousollini - got the Italian trains to run on time,
that guy Adolf, - gave Germany the Autobahns and the world the VW beetle,
and as for Uncle Joe, look at all the grandiose schemes he gave Russia, like the canal system, and the "seven sisters" in Moscow,
The Greek Junta, built some good roads, yes we can forgive them f*cking Cyprus over for that.



yeah ... we should stop being Greeks because of the Junta like the Sicilians stopped being Italians because of Mussolini! :lol: But there is no reason for Falklands to stop being UK ... those British imperialists have always been so nine ... never done anything wrong. :roll:


Cypriots were never Greeks just like the Sicilians are not Italians!

These fantasies are just a product of your Greek brainwashing Gymnasium education from Junta published text books!

I am a Cypriot but also a proud Greek, for you to say Cypriots are not Greek that is just stupid, so I take it Cretans are not Greek then? We were born Greeks and we will die Greeks, what makes me laugh is that if Cyprus was unified with Greece which at the time 95% voted for enosis you would have been born into a country called Greece calling yourself Greek.

And the irrefutable evidence that you are Greek besides the usual…

“My daddy, my teacher, and my friend said so!”

…is what exactly?

That Greek is our language and the language of our ancestors for 1000s of years. Just because you are a Charlie and you say you are not Greek that doesn't mean we are not Greek either ;)

You are not very clever Sotiraki...

Language:
Speaking Greek doesn’t make you Greek any more than speaking English makes you a Brit!

Music:Listening to the bouzouki and other Greek music doesn’t make you Greek any more than listening to Elvis makes you American.

Entertainment preferences:
Watching Greek TV programs doesn’t make you Greek any more than watching a Brazilian soaps makes you Brazilian.

Eating habits:
Eating Greek food doesn’t make you Greek any more than eating noodles would make you Chinese.

Religion:
Being an Orthodox Christian doesn’t make you Greek any more than being a Buddhist would make you Nepalese.

Ding dong!

I am way smarter than you.

If you speak English and your ancestors for 1000s of years spoke English that makes you English. Ding dong!

I'm afraid it doesn't Sotos and it's unfortunate you base all your theories on that feeble argument!

There is official worldwide criteria that determine what constitutes naturalizations, citizenships, and such but it has nothing to do with what one assumes his forefathers were speaking 3,000 years ago! :lol:

We are not talking about citizenships but about ethnicities ;) You can be Chinese and if you stay in Cyprus for some years you can get the Cypriot citizenship. If the Turks accept our own proposals then 50.000 Turkish Settlers will get the Cypriot citizenship. You can go to France and after some years you can became French citizen. What citizenship you have doesn't say anything about your ethnicity. Your language and the language of your ancestors says a lot 8)
