Alexander
What do you care about how many Greeks or Turkish Cypriots died? All that matters for your type is that you can sit on somebody else’s porch and guzzle your cheap booze and puff away at your cancer sticks. Keep doing the latter and stop the former.


alexander true he doest care his just someone who brought a cheap home out of peoples suffering and death his a sick old man i hope he has a unhappy retirement people like him make me sick his no better then a turk

I dont know if he cares or not but we cant be sure he bought GC land. On the other hand retired2cyprus maybe you need to show some compassion for the people who lost thousands also not just the ones who lost hundreds :P

every now then we come up with the numbers again , and i will repeat once again that it is not about numbers. peoples pain is all the same. the numbers dont show "more guilty" or "more pain" . irrespective if it is a gc or a tc , the pain of having a member of your family being killed or missing or being a refuggee is the same , and has nothing to do with numbers.

sometimes i think this forum would be happy if a "painmeter" was discovered.

stuballstu mind your own business you turk appeasing loser


My dear gurl

As someone who has a home in Cyprus and various business interests on the Island, both sides of the "Green Line" i guess that makes me not only a "Turk appeasing loser" but also a Greek Cypriot appeasing loser as well?

I must admit the substance of your post really did not surprise me, its the sort of thing that it best kept for a playground. At least you're consistant in your posts.

No there is no "magical" number but when one side accuses the other of genocide and ethnic cleasing then I think it was a fair question.
If both sides had deaths which are around about the same that rejects the claim put by Turkey that turkish-cypriots were being slaughter and that entire turkish villages vanished off the face of earth .

So Mr.X who is a murderer because he killed one person is in the same category with Hitler that killed millions? This is the case if numbers do not matter. Are you sure?

How about the murderer who regretted for his actions and declared that he would not do them again, VS the murderer who insists that he will continue to act criminally as long as he is not caught by the police. Are they again the same?

i was talking from the point of view of the victim not from the one who committed the crime. as i spoke about pain , i thought it was clear.

now if you want to talk about those who commited the crimes... i believe we have the right to talk when we have punished our own. as far as i know... we didnt.
