merry christmas don

Hi Don,

It was nice to see you here and I just wanted to say hello. I hope all is well with you.

hi!!!!! nice to see you back, i have missed your posts!

You are, once again, my hero!

Hey Don. How goes it?

Thank you for your post on Cyprus. It was a neutral and professional analysis of the conflict and i couldn't have said it better myself. You said precisely what i was saying when you stated:

"That Turkey's military intervention was "illegal" under international law was a lesser consideration for Turkey's government."

I previously stated that:

"International law becomes irrelevant when that very law inhibits a nations ability to protect there minorities abroad. International law in this respect is a very broad consensus that allows little exceptions in exceptional and specific circumstances such as this."

although i believe your assessment was better than my own.
