| do you believe it was not an invasion? is the term invasion more provocative than the term peace operation? |
I believe that to those cypriots who opposed the action that Turkey took, it was an invasion and to those cypriots that supported and welcomed the action it was salvation. That is it is a mtter of perspective. Invasion is a perspective based term, as is peace operation. Intervention is a neutral term. If you expect Talat to only use neutral terms then imo you should expect the same from TP.

But he does not claim that he and his government only represent those that elected him. THat is the 'problem'. He claims to represent Turkish Cypriot's even though they do not vote for him, yet he claims this but speaks and acts as though he only represents those that voted for him (or against him).

TMT cause was to create hate between the 2 communities to show that the 2 communities cant live together so that turkey can invade take 37% of cyprus ethnic clean 200.000 Greek Cypriot and bring partision. |
That is what you say and probably believe was TMT's 'cause' yet that does not mean that it was. Just as EOKA's cause was not a single same thing to all people in it and out of it, so to is the case with TMT. There prob were elements in TMT with objectives like those above, as there were those in EOKA who's goal was enosis at any cost and by any means legal or not and regardless of how much Turkish Cypriot would have to be oppressed to acheive it if Cyprus was independent or not. Others in EOKA no doubt saw the cause as simply ending british rule, as some in TMT no doubt saw their casue to be protecting Turkish Cypriot comunity from Greek Cypriot aggression.

when they protected Turkish Cypriot? |
That you even have to ask this question to me typifes the problem.
Do I really have to list the series of Greek Cypriot government lead attacks against various Turkish Cypriot 'enclaves' and quote the many independent press reports about these attacks and ask you who you think was organisaing the defense of these Turkish Cypriot enclaves against such attacks if it was not TMT?
To be honest I think I have reached the limits of trying to use reasoned argument with you on these issues. Your whole world view is just , in my humble opinion, to skewed and one sided to make such continued efforts a waste of my time and yours. |

There is a leader somewhere in the crowd, but, it seems, the time is not ripe yet.
Pragmaticly, and practically, there must exist a Republic of Cyprus. As a State, being Bi-Communal there must also exist two (or three if you include the Maronites) National Assemblies for these citizens to sustain their distinctive identities-and to have self-representation for this need, where in each, minorities are recognised, and they are provided for in goodwill.
Bi-Zonal, to me, means, the island divided into many parts; spots which cover both territories, like enclaves, allowing for a redistribution of the land which is acceptable to all Cypriots, allowing for the right to return as communities in the north and the south, and allowing for real homes to settlers who have this desire, to be Cypriot. |

In the subject, there was a Turkish Cypriot’s candidate with EDI and she get my @@ of votes.
If there are kids of that mixture they have all voted yes and of course no one from the great human trash patriots from both sides will vote “parasites” to represent their racist believes. |
