STUD - why do you live in Cyprus if you still consider our freedom fighters as terrorists?

There's probably not a single GC here, or living near you as your neighbour, who does not have some close kin who risked their life for freedom from the Imperialist Brits.

The fact you still refer to the EOKA fighters as terrorists, and also defame a young teenage boy whose 'crime' was to touch a flag in his own country and birthplace (like Solomos Solomou being shot by Turkish zombies) makes you unspeakably crude, arrogantly stupid and psychologically deranged.

Anyone who has you in their company knowing this about you needs to have their head examined. Any GC related to these freedom fighters who knows what you say about EOKA, who knows how you feel about our brave young heroes and would deem to speak to you, or allow you to continue to poison the soil of this country, is not a child of Cyprus!

This is the modern day parallel to what Evagoras Pallikarides carried out. The only difference was that Solomou was murdered instantly.

Answer me this: Was Solomou a terrorist?




Was Solomou "an Enosis loving terrorist scumbag who did not die for anything free about Cyprus but to give it to another foreign country, Greece"???????????

...the difference between EOKA and EOKA B: find Grivas' brother, he'll tell you.

...EOKA was a movement for Freedom, self-determination.

...EOKA B was purely political.

Thanks for the clarification about the nature of your coming back at me. I had seen references to Kuru on the prowl looking for Bananiot and GR so was not sure if you were planning the same.

Planning? You really think kuru is planning anything against the grass hopper?? Jesus!! And GR? Down Under? kuru must have found the secret of transferring himself between continents in moments then?

As the first item showed that Evgogoras Pallikardes did more the just rip ndown the British flag- in 1955 he joined the terrorist back-shooters of EOKA ands was later caught and pleaded giulty to illegal firearems possession.

Pesonally I do not think he should have been hung.

Is GR down under? I thought he was in the Nicosia area running some sort of a computer workshop.

Well, I always thought he was but I couldn't care less.

You was right. According to his personal profile he is in Nicosia and he is a.... psycho...of some kind (psuchodermist?)

He was criminalised at the age of 15 y.o. by the Colonialist Brits simply because he took down a foreign flag. He later fought for freedom and justice - his own and for his country.

BTW Your general dislike of capital punishment does not absolve you from the disgusting statements you have made so far and the fact you wanted these "scumbag terrorists" punished by the Imperialist Brits!

Furthermore, I would like you to tackle my earlier questions.

1. How can you continue to live in Cyprus whilst viewing our freedom fighters (kin) as terrorists? Is it because you are superior to us and want to teach us how wrong we are, in so many ways? To have heroes and also admit we are Greeks?

2. And what of Solomos Solomou? Was he a "scumbag"?

[supporttheunderdog]

As far as I know Solomos was not involved with a terrorist organisation that murdered unarmed people and he was killed - no murdered - by the Turks without any form of due process for an act of protest which did not involve threat to life.

if the British had killed Pallikarides for his desecration of the Flag in the way that Solomos was killed I would have condemned that to, but he was not . Indeed I am not aware that Pallikarides was in any way prosecuted or otherwise crminilased for what he did with the flag: he did however later join a what I consider to be a terrorist organisation (one man's freedom fighter is another mans' terrorist) and commit criminal offences involving posession of firearms , directed agaainst the then recognised rulers, which he admited.

Now I belive in an independant Cyprus - you do not. That is why my concience is clear in living here.

Not really. It depends whether you think the British were right to suppress with violence a legitimate struggle for national liberation. You clearly think they do which makes you someone at odds with the majority of the population you choose to live amongst.

It also places you on the wrong side of history. Do you believe that Nelson Mandela and the ANC were a terrorist organisation as well? They were certainly viewed that way by the British establishment.

It seems that for Britain and the British a freedom fighter is nearly always a terrorist. That's because freedom fighters are invariably fighting British interests.
