How To Make Cargo Nets

Attention Jennifer Lynn Lopez

Agora we July 8, 2010 - Leave a Comment

(Born July 24, 1969)

Dear Mrs. Lopez

I am writing in my capacity as President of displaced mothers of Cyprus, as a woman and above all as a mother. Since this region we follow and admire your successful career, but also your amazing strength to raise your children and your determination to offer the fair values of life.

Nevertheless, we were really shocked and saddened to learn that you will visit the region of the Republic of Cyprus occupied by Turkish troops to take part in the celebrations the anniversary of the illegal invasion of our country by Turkey, which has deprived us of our homes and our rights within our own country. Since July 20, 1974, when laTurquie invaded our island, one third of the population of the island of Cyprus, ie 200,000 people - probably the proportion of IDPs / refugees highest in a single country - were evicted by force from their homes and 37% of the sovereign territory of the Republic of Cyprus came under Turkish military occupation. In violation of all UN resolutions and all decisions of the European Court of Human Rights condemned Turkey for its illegal presence on the island, Greek Cypriots were prevented from returning to their homes and properties for their mass expulsion.

Displaced persons who became refugees in fact in their own country, suffered more loss of their possessions and goods, the loss of their loved ones, many of which are still unaccounted for as Turkey refuses to make accounts about their fate. Some members of our movement, which at the time were teenagers, were raped by Turkish soldiers and captured as prisoners of war - As to other members, we were raped even our soul and still suffer.

Turkey has uprooted our childhood and our dreams, yet we do not lose hope. We now have our own families and children and we struggle to raise them with the limited means available to us far from our homes. BUT WE DO NOT FORGET THE TRAGEDY OF July 20, 1974.

On your website you say: "As for me, I'm Catholic," (Lopez said on Southern Florida's NBC 6), we would like to inform you that in June of this year, His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI visited the Republic of Cyprus, but he refused to visit the regions occupied by the Turkish army, not in response to an invitation "official" who came to him. This should be instructive about what this "state" is for Christianity and humanity. We, as Christians and as women who suffered from atrocities committed by Turkey, urge you not to make the trip to Cyprus and not to participate in these celebrations.

The fact that you're world famous, transforming this "party for your birthday" into a trap cleverly camouflaged in favor of Turkey and produce a direct negative impact to the detriment of my country and ourselves, to the extent you Turkish propaganda uses in an effort to forge a false "normality" and false "legitimacy" for the pseudo-state outlaw who is recognized only by Turkey.
When Your Decision, PLEASE consider THAT:

On 20 July 1974 Turkey invaded and occupied part of Cyprus since, and, consequently, of Europe itself;
Turkey perpetrated a purge Ethnic and war crimes against the Greek Cypriots.
We the Mothers IDPs and refugees, to the restoration of our Human Rights and Security in return for our homes and properties.
We require the determination of the fate and whereabouts of missing persons as well as accountability of Turkey.

These facts constitute the truth often overlooked in discussions about Cyprus for reasons of tact and ignored by world leaders who present themselves as defenders of Human Rights. We appeal to you as wife, mother and Christian and we ask that you respect our pain and do not celebrate your birthday in the company of Looters of our history, our past, our present and our future. We count on your sensitivity against violations of human rights worldwide and we would like to solicit your active support in our struggle against imperialism and in our efforts to restore our human rights, in the same way you were fought for awareness about the Mexican women murdered in Ciudad Juarez and Chihuahua.

I personally put myself at your disposal to provide any useful information in an objective manner and to cooperate with you in every way possible in order to inform the world about these unpunished crimes, committed in Cyprus since 1974. We are confident that you will take the right decision.

Hoping for your response,
Sincerely,

Markella Isaïa-chakka
President

Why Is The Desmume Screen Black

Interview by Ioannis A. Eliades of the Byzantine Museum of Nicosia

Ioannis A. Eliades : "Many thefts, illegal to steal works of art have given the Church of Cyprus idea to circulate in big cities, notice requiring that all important icons are then harvested for all together in a museum. Alas, this was not possible during the English period (first and second world war, and then the liberation war of Cyprus). With Archbishop Macario, the idea resurfaced in 1960 with the restoration of icons. In 1973 a major restoration workshop is created, ready to accommodate a large number of icons for the formation of the Museum. But the war in 1974, and the Turkish invasion which still has blocked everything. The Museum will be set up until 1982, ie 5 years after the death of the archbishop. Archbishop Macario A Foundation have also found a large library, a gallery of modern art, contemporary center editions. But the great ambition of the museum is to give shelter to the largest possible number of works which seized northern Cyprus. "

- 550 is the number of churches destroyed or abandoned in northern processed for various uses. And an estimated more than 20,000 the number of stolen parts. An enormous wealth that the illegal traffic has spread around the world ...

Ioannis A. Eliades : "Recently we found two great icons of trichome in the hands of a trafficker who held Russian in Switzerland in Zurich. A trial is also underway to repatriate them. "

- Publications, catalogs, exhibitions ... the Museum is engaged in a detailed study of operation and research to find the missing works.

Ioannis A. Eliades : "That's why our Museum had the idea to organize overseas exhibitions. We have already participated in the two editions of the meeting in Rimini in 2008 and 2009. The first year we presented the destruction of churches in Cyprus, showed their condition, asking to do something. While in 2009 we have illustrated the case of works found in Germany ("Hostages in Germany"). Was found in the apartments of a Turkish smuggler in Germany more than 300 works from Cyprus. Placed in receivership for more than 11 years, they are still in Germany. We ask that all works can be together again. "


Ioannis Eliades tells the sad story churches such as St. Barnabas turned into a museum (but icons there are more) and that the monks were forced to leave. It's still a lot of emotion in him when he thinks about the restoration of the frescoes found in Germany after so much effort.

Ioannis A. Eliades : "The Church of Cyprus has paid a sum to find out where were the apartments of the Turkish smuggler. Then there was the sale between September and October 1997, these frescoes have been recovered. When these three paintings you see here have found their place on the wall, we were very moved. We hope that this same process could one day be in the original church "

But in reality the value of these works, which are no less valuable, goes far beyond their capacity Art. By saving and restoring them is the strong Christian identity of the Cypriot people, tied to his land and his faith, which is saved and rebuilt. This same faith who lived all these people forced to leave their homes in the 70's and have managed to save some of the most popular icons, laying in the middle their few personal belongings away in haste, they were more valuable to save. This was the case with this icon ...

Ioannis A. Eliades : "This icon is an example of lost heritage of northern Cyprus. It comes from the Church of Panakia Avracida. The Turks have shot 15 years after the war in 1989. Probably after snatching the frescoes that were inside the church, built in the sixteenth century. They shot down the church and left the cells that surrounded the monastery, this to make it clear that their only aim was to destroy the Church, nothing else. This icon and it is the only witness, the only object that remains of this church. She was rescued by refugees, 74, and was reported by the archdiocese. "


- A approximately fifty churches are located within military camps inaccessible, says Ioannis, and those that were visited are in poor condition. The director of the Byzantine Museum in Nicosia in hopes of security conditions for refugees to return homes and churches to be restored. "Help us to do something," he says forcefully, otherwise there will soon be nothing of this great heritage. " His art is also an urgent appeal to the Pope.

Ioannis A. Eliades : "We ask the pope to do what he can to the cultural heritage of the north, collapsing day after day. Through the President of Cyprus, who died last year, we presented the pope a photo album of occupied churches, their state, so that it can to help, do something. This helps the Pope, Chrysostom It has also sought during his official visit in 2007. This year, we are hopeful that the visit of Benedict XVI makes things grow, we can get permission to restore our churches, because it does not even allow us to restore our churches with our own money.
