Turkey and Cyprus back in European court over family’s murder

Are Elmas Guzelyurtlu, his wife, and daughter, martyrs to a "Turkish" political cause? It seems so, because they are Turkish Cypriots (read: "Greek").

This ideological straight-jacket, ignores fundamental rights. And this case is an example more obvious than most. They, the authority in the occupied part of Cyprus, are unwilling to respect anything more than "Turkishness". Not just as Cypriots do they fail the rest of us, who are not "Turkish"; not as "Turks" but in "being" Turkish, they fail themselves.

The world is watching. After the decades, on so many levels, this ignorance has left these people isolated, as "Turks" forced to go against any sense that beyond "it", nothing is relevant, or more relevant. "They", those who impose their insistence that Cyprus, Cypriots, do not exist, are a scourge to "us".
