[Cyp-IMC-turkce] Re: [Imc-cyprus] A Word of Caution

[Petros Evdokas]

Merhaba  Osman,


Thank you for writing to us in relation to this article in the pages of 
Cyprus IndyMedia:
"Who gave the order to kill Solomou?"
http://cyprus-imc-english.nysindy.org/newswire/display/689/index.php
(copy of your letter below).

We certainly share the same goals with you, that is to oppose the rise 
of reactionaries, and to help create a BiCommunal reunification of our 
peoples outside of the control of reactionary agencies.

Our only difference is that at IndyMedia, we specify that the concept of 
"reactionary influences" includes government, corporate, and 
authoritarian party agencies. Among the members of the Solution Now 
discussion and action group, the US and UK Governments are specifically 
excluded from the list of reactionaries, and considered as agents of 
reconciliation.

Anyway, regardless of our disagreement, there are enough reasons for us 
to be allies in the broader context of the BiCommunal process. If you 
can please show us how the publication of that article by 
"kali_kantzaros" helps the rise of reactionaries, we would be happy to 
take steps to correct that.

In the meantime, if you like, you may add and publish your own comments 
below that article, and in that way you can make any corrections you 
want to the claims being attributed to the "Avrupa/ Afrika" newspaper or 
to the other individuals mentioned in your original article.

We would like to invite you to consider using our pages to publish your 
thoughts and views.

Thank you,
Petros
member of the editorial group, Cyprus IndyMedia
