So you believe the Greek Cypriots could go into the Turkish Cypriot side and blow themselves up a la Palestine? Uh, I very clearly praised the Greeks as IMO morally superior to the Palestinians because (as far as I know) they haven't embraced terrorism and have been humane enough to resettle their refugees. Because not all problems are the same and equally devastating. Their problems look quite similar to me. In fact, it looks to me as if the Turks have been much more thorough at ethnic cleansing leaving virtually no ethnic Greeks in their occupied territory. it is because their "suffering" (i.e. some losing their homes) is not comparable to that of the Palestinians. Why is it suffering for Palestinians to lose their homes, while it is "suffering" for ethnic Greek Cypriots to lose their homes? You seem to have feeling for the Palestinians but not for Greeks when very similar things happen to them. You think the Greeks deserve what they got it seems. As I recall the latest wave of terrorism characterized by numerous suicide bombings began after the Palestinians leader rejected a US mediated settlement offer.
