BTW the local Cypriots (recent Greek and Turk migrants not included) are really just a bunch of Greek/Anatolian/Arab/Semitic (Phoenician in particular) mixtures. I remember seeing DNA tests of them clustering a lot with Arabs in the Middle East.
It is a funny situation with them as well. Part of Asia geographically and closer to Lebanon/Palestine/Israel than anything else yet part of the EU/NATO and now heavily allied with Israel.
Heard/read that a lot of Israelis have been buying up land/apartments/houses in Cyprus as well. Not to mention the UK military bases that were/are actively aiding Israel.
When I visited 10 + years ago it was already flooded with foreigners and the local government was doing everything in order to attract foreigners. Many locals were complaining. Basically another Malta in many ways.
I am talking about the "Greek" part of Cyprus.
Strange lot overall.

Well,they are part of the Greek world. Just like at least 2/3 of what is now Turkey used to be,they identify both as western and eastern. Hellenism has always been at the crossroads between east and west. I wouldn't say heavily allied. Despite what the Cypriot government might tell you,it's just buying equipment and having common exercises sometimes. But that's more because of the proximity and Israel's relations with Turkey right now. I don't expect Israelis to rush to save the Greek Cypriots in case of an incident. But it would be stunning to see Israeli F-15s and F-16s rushing to deter the THK from bombing Cypriot NG positions.

They aren't hedging between east and west anymore, they are firmly in the western camp, especially with the Ukraine war and the decline of Russia, their premier eastern partner since Soviet times. Some Politicians on the island want to go even further and embed themselves with the Zionist camp, with Israeli bases for strategic depth being set up by the zionists in case they are not able to use airbases inside Israel for whatever reason or they need to evacuate equipment, and inviting other elements to the Island.
I would be careful though, If Israelis start buying property there and moving there, they might decide God promised them Cyprus as well. lol

"They are firmly in the western camp". You know the culture? It's neither too eastern neither too western. Politically speaking,even Turkey is in NATO and pretends to want to join the EU,while flirting with Putin.
Be careful about Brit's buying property in TRNC too. Cyprus will end up like a new Mandate of Palestine https://www.independent.co.uk/news/...-by-britain-writes-esther-oxford-1493051.html

Katz says IDF to remain in Syria buffer zone for 'indefinite period' | The Jerusalem Post
Katz's statement was the most far-reaching statement to date in terms of the length of time the IDF might remain in Syrian territorywww.jpost.com
@hyperman
So the Zionist entity has now revealed its true intention to hold onto these areas indefinitely.
What is Erdogan-Jolani's next move here?

We are "Zionists", so I guess we will wait for Brave Mujahadeen in Hezbollah to teach us in how to hand over our Underground missile bases to Israel and the Maronite Lebanese Army.

All While Israel continues to take new territory in Lebanon while ignoring the ceasefire deadline for withdrawal.
These are tweets from January 28, 2025 and january 29, 2025 btw. So today and yesterday.

If you want a more serious answer, the current move is to get the
United Nations Disengagement Observer Force to deploy to the areas and in numbers. As well as lobby the Russians to try to push the issue at the UN on behalf of Syria. Perhaps even a Russian Peacekeeper deployment to the buffer zone. In exchange for continued base use or other matters.

Right now there are a lot bigger issues. Than a mountain height. Many bigger issues including
1) the PKK controlling 1/3 of the country
2) The PKK controlling the overwhelming majority of Syria Oil in Deir Ez Zor currently under US protection with Troop deployment there.
3) Getting a US withdrawal
4) the US Base and forces around Al tanf.
5) Keeping Syria consolidated on the Coastline.
6) Some elements in the Southern front who could be potential enemies(they collaborated with Russia and other spoilers(for those whop follow internal syrian politics the name Ahmad al-Awda would ring a bell).
7) Rebuilt Syria by making is sustainable and inhabitable
8) Rebuild forces.
Like I said, many more pressing issues than a hill. If Mr.Assad with far more resources was allowed a window of aroudn 60 years without firing a single bullet at the Golan for a far far bigger area. Maybe I'm biased here, but the new administration deserves a bit more than 1 month with the depleted state its in to take back a mountain top and the Golan and Liberate Palestine and all have it be done immediately.

And you'd be entirely wrong... as Cyprus has essentially become a conduit for zion, a fall back if all else fails. There are zionist communities being established in Cyprus... storage dumps and of course the whole British air bridge.

There is something called simultaneous workloads.
The Zionist entity has said it will never withdraw and so at the least work with Russians to put a vote in the UN SC to demand an immediate and unconditonal withdrawal from all Syrian territories occupied by the Zionist entity.
The other issues can be worked in tandem.

Let the new Syrian administration work through the issues themselves, I'm sure they have a better grasp on the situation than outside observers. Of course there is room for improvement, but For the most part IMO they have played things rather decently given the delicate circumstances and the situation being handed to them.
Go worry about Hezbollah, they are handing over their missile silos and being demilitarized while getting unilaterally bombed even behind the Litani rives as Israel takes more land.
All the while the Iraqi "resistance" has stopped firing drones and missiles at Israel, while Hezbollah continues to be essentially dismantled, and Iran looks the other way to try to save itself, talking about negotiating with the Trump Administration.
Alteast the Houthis had more izzah to keep firing until the Israelis agreed to a ceasefire in Gaza. Iraqi PMUs gave up immediately after a few US/Israeli air strikes. Despite having a buffer of being further away from Israel and having supply routes from Iran.
When is True Promise 3 coming? lol

So your response is to deflect and whataboutism?
As Turks-HTS are essentially being called Zio-US puppets, they can take a lot of these allegations out by pushing for Russia/China to take a vote to the SC to demand an unconditional vote for withdrawal from all territories taken since fall of Assad, as a first step to withdrawal from all of Syria.
US will then have to vote down against "International Law" to stop it from passing.
