Everyday, Greeks and Turks have to tollerate provocative and insulting "questions" by a certain kind of people who try to attract our attention, this being the only way for them to feel important, and at the same time they offend our countries and people. Suggestions: Turks enter the greek section every day and report abuses the way we do when you get insulted and provoked. Also, let's create a network between us so that to act immediately against these offensive behaviours.... Enough is enough....

Thanks for the idea for unification. Leonarda also suggested a good think. Let's open a yahoo group and give it a nice name like "greco-turkish friendship" or something like that.
Almost all my life has been in a Greco-Turkish conflict here in Cyprus. Either some Greek Cypriots attacked us or they were provoked by mainland Greece. I cannot say Turks were completely innocent.
BUT, that doesn't mean ALL Greeks are like that. And I have no hard feelings for them. In fact I like them a lot. After all we have so many things in common. We have lived together for centuries. It was always "others" who provoked us into fighting.
"O rakıdan bahseder, sen Boğaz'ı hatırlarsın
Yunanlıyla kardeş olduğunu
sıla derdine düşünce anlarsın..." (B.Ecevit)
Let's get together and show everyone how good friends we are.
Irini / Peace

You especially, you know my point of view.And the thing is that I also contacted many greek friends, and many turks contacted me to join a site where we can do this.
How many times i reported abuse, and they never eliminated the insulting questions or answers.The same the tukish friends.They always get insults,and they report abuse, and they dont eliminate the answers they receive.I think there is a racism to the both countries, as if we have done something bad.
There are others who enter into both sections and they try to cause conflicts between the 2 countriesBut for so many years we have good contacts with the turks.I have told you how they receive me when i go there.
They insulted a girl present here.And the question is still there.
They enter from a neighbour country (especially one person)and trying to provock conflicts between Turkey and Greece.
They think that they are clever..
And you know...I have enough to speak,because i always get report abuse when i say the truth.
Yes, not only a common section, but also to arrange a common exchange with the turkish people here, to be invited in Greece, and we ll go to them too...
To make our ennemies who are trying to provock us black from anger.
Turks we are with you..

Thank you for being so clever and kind,Edoardo...You are like me...
We Greeks,Armenians,Turks should not let the racist people attack us...But it's not easy to prevent that kind of provocations, because on Yahoo everybody is anonymous ( or can pretend to be someone else...)...At least we can try....As you said, enough is enough...

Peace to everybody...

Onno, an Armenian of Istanbul...

Ok,I am Greek and I have no problem with turks, I have lots of turkish friends. Hate is a stupid thing, we must respect each others nation , values and opinions, thats the only way we will go along.

I agree with you Edoardo. I also liked your answer very much against those provokers in that "when? when?" question. Please count me also in that list and from now on I will also check Greece category everyday.

You are right. Thank you for creating an awareness. Did you know that we like greeks and regard them as allies and friends? Together we are stronger! Greetings from constantinople!

you are right my friend,i 've suggested this to yahoo too.
i think we could send instant mesagges to each other to warn or say something.Because now,we have no chance to send mesagges to each other.
