What's good for the goose is good for the gander
I am convinced the Turkish & Kurdish people of Turkey at large are ready to embrace the thinking "what's good for the goose (tCs/gCs) is good for the gander (Kurds/Turks)". Just enough democracy has crept into the country to allow the genie out of the bottle. It's just a matter of time for the analogy to take up it's rightful place in public discussion.

Turkey's Kurds & Cyprus' tCypriots
As either unitary state or federation solutions are discussed as replacements to Cyprus' 1960 and Turkey's 1923 unworkable constitutions, should we abide by "if a right is a right too many for Turkey's Kurdish community (circa 23% of population) then that right is a right too many for Cyprus' tCypriot community too (circa 15%), and vice versa." Is the adoption of this fair logic the catalyst to securing just solutions for both UN countries.
