Wandering in the desert

Turkey's 1980 junta constitution is broken. So is Cyprus' 1960 one. Both UN nations must find the right balance of rights for their double-digit ethnic minorities. Turkey uses force in both countries to "define" those rights.  Is it about time we publicly debate why the majority ethnic Turks of Turkey find totally unacceptable for Turkey's Kurds those rights that the majority ethnic Greek Cypriots are willing to grant Cyprus' ethnic Turkish Cypriots? In doing so we will uncover, for the entire world to see, the prevalent fascism that permeates the thinking of Turkey's leaderships.

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.
