Well I watched hr programme, Cyprus was on for about half of it. The film crew went with a couple of Greek Cypriots across ther border into the North.
It was the anniversary of the invasion and the Turks were really rubbing it in.

The Greek Cypriot couple were just going over to see there house which they hadn't seen for 30 years. Very sad.

They did show some Greek Cypriots that wanted to cause trouble but not much of them.

Tempers still run high even after 30 years.

Very interesting to watch.

very interesting, did you see the army goose-stepping. all looked like kids,20 para's would sort the lot out. they won't be flag waving for long if they want to join eec. personally i wouldn't want them in it only good thing from turkey is a kebab and that's when your drunk.

Hi Willy,
How much time have you spent in Turkey??? Very broad statement to make. I dont wish to incite but try reading up on Galipoli.

oh yes i forgot about that, that's were the turk's kept shooting the prisoners isn't it ?(according to that program with david jason in it) did you see the program qatarman, waving the turkish flag in that poor cypriots face. we cannot even put out a st george flag with england on it because it's racist. ok i admit i don't know the turks like i know the greek cypriots but after watching the program i'm on the greek side and believe they should give back what they stole.

There is always two sides to every story and in this case 3 more sides as well!!! Up to this point media have concentrated on one side only, so best to do a bit of research before making comments

Best to remember the old saying 'never get involved in a discussion about polotics or religion'...........

Cheers,
Janet
