...in any case, the debate is flawed; it has led to repeated failure because in essence we are not "Greek" or "Turkish", they are the same, and not mutually exclusive, representing the adversary, to who are Cypriots. As Cypriots, those who are Cypriot, if they are to take back the Agenda, they must be willing to defend each other, and they must recognise how valuable it is, this identity, Cypriots, that there are interlopers who seek to divide them and usurp it.

I recall Koray Basdogrultmaci and Cinel Senem Husseyin, their struggle, to make it "legal" to fly this Flag in the occupied part of Cyprus, the Flag of Cyprus. I remember the thousands of these Flags sent to the Buffer Zone, by children, in Nicosia during the Occupy Movement. More Cypriots must take the time to make the same effort, for Cyprus as a place where Cypriots live. It is obvious, and it sends a simple message, it's not hard for anyone to do, it exposes those among Cypriots who see in this Flag a threat, to "Greekness" and "Turkishness", and it is unfortunate that someone Cypriot might die for this Flag by "them", it happens in Cyprus, so it is that there must be change.

...i remind the readers, intentions count; America is a BBF, Canada is a BBF, (i have read mRpeepee (read: MrH) describe Britain to be a BBF; it is in a way correct though), a BBF is not anathema to "being" Cypriot.

One Cyprus, like one Turkey, or one Britain, it's not so hard to understand: within a State based on Universal Principals, as Individuals, Freedom; Liberty, as Persons based on this trust and respect for each other accordingly. The Problem is not isolated to Cyprus, but in the Cyprus Problem the world has Hope.
