You are projecting your complexes on me again. You make up stuff and attribute them to me.
When did I ever say that Greeks are whiter than Arabs? How can I claim something that is completely irrelevant and uninteresting to me?
The mere suggestion that Cypriots aren't Arabs equals in your mind tο "Greeks are much whiter than Arabs". I never even mentioned Arabs, I mentioned Cypriots and I stated a fact.
The only way your people to associate themselves to the civilized world is via the Greeks so I understand your attempt to Semitize and de-Hellenize the Cypriots.
But history is already written and cannot be re-written. Cypriots are Greeks, have a Greek culture and that's how they identify, and that's how they are regarded by the rest of Greeks.

Glad you finished waxing your eyebrow and mustache and can finally reply. You nordic lil Greek.
What attempt? It's a fact the original inhabitants were Semitic Syrians. Although it's funny you suddenly care about how people now identify.
In that case, Palmyra is not Greek because the town is inhabited by Syrians.
http://www.ucl.ac.uk/sargon/essentia...ntries/cyprus/The Assyrian intervention in aid of Tyre would have been instrumental in restoring Tyre's control over the Cypriot kingdoms. However, it also brought the Assyrian king's power to the attention of the Cypriot rulers who promptly dispatched a diplomatic delegation to Sargon II, then residing in Babylon, in order to pledge their service. But although Sargon had a stele erected on the island in order to commemorate this encounter, it is extremely unlikely to have changed the existing set-up, with Tyre exercising control over the Cypriot kingdoms: as long as Tyre was considered a dependable ally able to guarantee the loyalty of its vassals on Cyprus there was very little reason to expect any kind of local Assyrian representation on the island itself, or even a direct line of communication. For reaching the island independently was beyond the powers of Assyria, which did not command a navy at the time. Perhaps not surprisingly, therefore, there is no mention of Cyprus in Sargon's state letters.
The Cypriot rulers as client kings of the Assyrian empire
The relationship between Assyria and the Cypriot kingdoms changed under Sargon's successors of the 7th century BC. According to the inscriptions of Esarhaddon (see above) and Assurbanipal (668-c. 627 BC), the rulers of the ten Cypriot kingdoms of Idalion, Chytroi, Soloi, Paphos, Salamis, Kourion, Tamassos, the New Town ("Carthage"), Ledrai and Marion assisted in renovating Esarhaddon's armory in Nineveh and later in mustering Assurbanipal's army set for Egypt.
Such activities fell under the duties expected of allied rulers and would indicate that there was now a direct and more permanent link between the Cypriot kingdoms and Assyria. Tyre was no longer managing these relationships. Indeed, Ba'alu, the king of Tyre, is named in the quoted passages together with the Cypriot kings as an equal rather than their superior and as fulfilling the very same roles. That Esarhaddon concluded a treaty with at least one Cypriot ruler is demonstrated by an oracle query (SAA 4 92) referring to this arrangement.

Greece has undertaken 13 separate austerity packages since 2010
Banks that have bought Greek T-bills at 3% interest (with a gun pointed to their head obviously as thats how investors invest, with guns being pointed to heads) are now being repaid 5%+ in interest repayments.
Greek debt has increased circa 35% since the austerity packages - the "bailout" packages is merely structured finance to bail out bad bank bets on Greek debt. Greek economy has seen 8% of total "bailout" funds the 92% has gone to Banks.
The Greek consumer was never in debt all this debt is external. (Banks investing in debt)
Greece has been economically raped by Western Europe
