I remember from 1968 when I served there in the royal Air Force , Cypriots, no matter what language they spoke at least tolerated each other without major problems. Post the 1974 invasion it's only been downhill. Such a shame om a delightful island.

Worth seeing the original again in all its deep-felt rawness.

I watched it init’s entirety as so far it’s been only clips here and there used in other presentations and with commentary. The effect the ‘silence’ of the images and the bare minimal music and direct but harsh lyrics have is very powerfull. Thank you guys for managing through what i can only imagine extremely difficult circumstances to create this documentation for those of us whose childhood was irrecoverably marked by nightmares of sirens going off, distant gunshots and darkness chassing you and swallowing you up.

So sad.... Big traumas... I hope it never happens again. I just wish The national TV of Cyprus was more sensitive to what Turkish Cypriots also had gone through especially between 1964-1974. And I just hope that our Greek speaking Cypriot brothers and sisters also know and understand what Turkish speaking Cypriots have gone through and still are going...

Thank you but also the Armenian as well. We all Cypriot’s went through hell. I t took me multiple times to watch the video clip. I could not watch it at first because it brought the dark memories. I lived through it and lost my brother and other relatives. Soon or later I need to face my past that It still hurt me to this day.

Totally agree, watched a similar Turkish one a few days ago and it was just as sad even though it was heavily biased. Someone needs to make a video which shows both sides suffering to make this point.

I’m sorry, but what we have is not peace but a stalemate. It is not a genuine solution as those who have lost their families and/ or homes are not truly satisfied
