Ultra orthodox Jews in Haifa carry their luggage to a ship bound for Cyprus
The Cradle – July 4, 2025
The opposition in Cyprus has recently warned that Israel is establishing a “backyard” in the EU island nation, in response to increasing property acquisitions in the country by Israeli investors.
The warning resulted in a diplomatic storm, with both Cypriot and Israeli officials condemning the opposition’s warning as “antisemitic.”
“Israeli buyers are purchasing significant land parcels and strategic economic assets,” spokesperson for the Progressive Party of Working People (AKEL), Stefanos Stefanou, said in June. “They are building Zionist schools, synagogues, gated enclaves … Israel is preparing a backyard in Cyprus, and this cannot but sound the alarm for us.”
“Israeli newspapers speak of a targeted policy of expansion of Israel in Cyprus,” he said. “We do not say that out of xenophobia or antisemitism,” he added, stressing that “Israel is occupying us.”
He noted that Israel has bought large quantities of land and is establishing gated communities, predominantly in Larnaca and Limassol. “These are not just holiday homes. These are settlements in all but name.”
“Specific areas are being bought en masse,” Stephanou said. This has resulted in “closed areas almost inaccessible to anyone other than Israeli nationals.”
He warned that “At some point, we’ll discover our own land doesn’t belong to us,” adding that Cyprus was becoming a “satellite enclave” for Israel.
These land acquisitions are being carried out through what is referred to as a “Golden Visa,” a residency-by-investment scheme that allows non-EU nationals to acquire a residency by investing in property.
Cyprus has issued thousands of these visas with little oversight. Other EU nations, including Spain, have restricted land sales to non-EU nationals.
Cypriot media outlets, including Politis and Cyprus Mail, have recently published investigative reports about these gated communities and political pressure to crack down on the abuse of the Golden Visa, particularly by AKEL.
Between 2021 and 2025, Israelis have purchased over 1,400 properties in Larnaca, over 1,100 in Limassol, and more than 1,200 in Paphos – often located near ports, resorts, and strategic sites such as army bases.
In total, almost 4,000 Israeli-linked properties have been acquired across southern Cyprus since 2021.
“Israelis tend to buy large land parcels, featuring spas and resorts – gated communities, so to speak. Pyla has become their unofficial hub,” real estate consultant Loizos Loizou told Cyprus Mail recently.
Between 2018 and 2025, the number of Israelis residing in Cyprus has surged from 6,500 to around 15,000.
Israeli newspaper Haaretz recently reported that Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency was active in Cyprus and was using it for “safehouse operations.”
Ynet also noted how Israelis were “storming” the real estate market in Cyprus.
Hebrew media has monitored the growing trend of Israeli land acquisition in Cyprus over the past couple of years. Haaretz reported in August 2023 that Israelis were buying “anything in sight” in the island nation, calling it “the second Israel.”
During the recent war with Iran, scores of Israelis made their way to Cyprus on boats to escape from ballistic missile strikes.
The warnings of the Cypriot opposition caused an uproar.
Israel’s Ambassador to Cyprus Oren Anolik said, “With deep concern, we observe and condemn the emergence of uncharacteristic antisemitic rhetoric in Cyprus’s public discourse – rhetoric that, under the guise of ‘political concern,’ revives dark patterns from the past: collective blame, conspiracy theories and veiled scapegoating.”
Politicians from some of Cyprus’s centrist parties also condemned Stephanou’s comments.
The Cypriot government has not issued an official comment on the matter. However, an official from Cyprus’s Foreign Ministry told Cyprus Mail that Nicosia was “monitoring the discourse” and considering a parliamentary debate on hate speech before the August recess.
AKEL rejected the antisemitism accusation, saying it “opposes all forms of misanthropy” and that its criticism targets government policies, not Jewish identity. Stefanou accused the Israeli ambassador of “trying to muzzle legitimate debate.”
Cyprus hosts the Akrotiri base, a major British army facility which has been used by Israel for reconnaissance missions over Gaza.
Israel and Cyprus have intensified their military cooperation in recent years, as part of a joint declaration signed in 2017. They have also carried out several joint military and naval exercises.
Cyprus also maintains close defense ties with the US.

In the past Oswald Mosely colin jordan william joyce and Enoch powell, all had their voices silenced and were ridiculed by the zionist press, but Nigel Farage gets lots of publicity for now saying exactly the same thing
why ?
is he a pied piper leading us astray ?
is he another tony blair type psychopath ?
can we trust him ?
Well it’s easier to get to than Madagascar, and the amenities are good.
We should have expected this a long time ago.
Just look at the photo of those rats escaping isra-hell !!!!
NO MORE MIGRANTS
sorry Britain now full
If you resist invasion, you are “antisemitic” as if you started the fight–but you didn’t. Jews are generally a fight against humans
Cyprus is making itself a prime target in the next conflict with Iran. Turkey will sit and wait for its turn to take over the island.
And of course the Jews are buying up Cyprus with endless funny money from their exclusive money tree: THE US FEDERAL RESERVE BANK.
LOL..
Shock!, Horror!…an army of forelocked undertakers have taken over swathes of Cyprus… they’d best be careful..because it all starts with pious exodus and lachrymose yiddins in gated communities and ends in partition and wonder woman sniping at your starving children…
Jews massacred 240,000 Greek Cypriots in 117 AD, and eventually were driven from Cyprus. As with Ukraine and Middle Eastern countries, Jews believe these countries are Jewish territories, and it is war or infiltration to achieve their ambitions, and to continue Zionist world domination. USA, Canada, UK, Germany, France, Italy, Poland, Japan and many more countries have been infiltrated by Zionists and Jews and basically are countries of the Satanic Zionist Jewish Empire.
How is it that the talmud cult always has so much money to buy it all? How come they never integrate at large in Cyprus or anywhere else? How is it they are so secretive with their behaviours and all? This all reminds me of the medieval and ancient history of these nomads. Waht ae they trying to hind? If they want to not integrate at large, they should all go to the North or South Pole and start from scratch to build their homes, industry, synagogues etc. Otherwise, pls learn to integrate at large, of course you have something to hind, or think you’re better than the rest of the world population.
Attn Cypriots:
Don’t be surprised to find out that UKKK has stabbed you in the back… and ceded its “interests” in Cyprus to Izzyhell… for a “few shekels”… (after all, ” Black Holes” have to be filled!😉 )
and is now diligently in cahoots to incorporate Cyprus into Greatet Izzyhell as its unsinkable aircraft-carrier in the Mediterranean
Cyprus has been “Israeli” for long time, back when the Phoenicians colonized it, along with many ports and coastal towns (including the Island Great Britain). And even before those years when they were just a bunch of neanderthal tribes invading other peoples lands and homes. Just as they pretty much do today.
Pyla, also known as Pile, is a unique village located in the Larnaca District of Cyprus. It is situated within the United Nations Buffer Zone, making it one of the few places on the island where Greek and Turkish Cypriots coexist peacefully. Unlike many other areas in Cyprus, Pyla has maintained its bi-communal character since the division of the island in 1974.The village is notable for its harmonious living environment, where both communities share public spaces and resources. This coexistence is symbolized by bilingual public signs in Greek and Turkish, reflecting the village’s diverse heritage. Pyla stands out as a rare example of unity amidst the broader political tensions that have historically divided the island.In summary, Pyla is a village that transcends the divisions of Turkish and Greek Cyprus, embodying a spirit of cooperation and mutual respect between its inhabitants.
They are settling in a United Nations Buffer Zone…????
God help Cyprus
The countries Zionists and Jews declare war on, they destroy totally: Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Palestine, Lebanon, Yemen, etc. Those they infiltrate, they destroy slowly and surgically: the UK, USA, Canada, France, Germany, Italy and the rest of Europe. The Romans conquered and built roads, aqueducts, magnificent baths and a system of justice and law. Zionists and Jews strangle countries they conquer with pestilence, injustice, racism, satanic Judaism, lawlessness, greed, Talmudic satanic indoctrination, corruption, pedophilia, pornography, beastility, child and adult trafficking and accusations of anti-semitism
Cypress isn’t deporting them, why again?
Cypriots can refuse to sell land to Israelis..so why are they not doing so?
Why aren’t they just being refused entrance into the country?
If Cypriots didn’t want them there, they could just shut them out.
You said it for me, Derek.
Cyprus citizens needs to be carful. The people who are coming have no problem killing children and women. They are evil. Sleep with one eye open. They may say God promised them Cyprus.
Fantabulous! The dense clustering of the filth will help in the future extermination. One warhead per judenfilth cluster efficiency.
And THIS is how MONOPOLY is really played.
Usury at its best.
George Michael has a Greek Cypriot father. George wrote the song ‘Shoot the Dog’, he was political and probably would have had something to say about Israelis committing genocide in Gaza and moving en masse into Cyprus.
Sometimes I think the rich and powerful had something to do with his death, perhaps by getting him hooked on illicit drugs or some prescribed legal medication.
For all of his genius as a singer/songwriter and generous spirit, he might have been an easy touch for those who wanted him dead…
George Michael’s father, Jack Panayiotou, is still alive, despite the tragic losses that have plagued the family. George Michael, born Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou, passed away on December 25, 2016, at the age of 53. His death marked a significant moment in a family already burdened by grief, as Jack is left to mourn not only his son but also other family members who have died under tragic circumstances. The Panayiotou family has faced a series of heartbreaking events, including the loss of George’s mother in the 1990s and the passing of his sister in 2019, exactly three years after George’s death. Jack, a Greek Cypriot restaurateur, emigrated to England in the 1950s and has been a pillar of support for his family throughout these difficult times. As the sole surviving member of his immediate family, Jack continues to navigate life while cherishing the memories of his loved ones.
Describing the savage Jewish uprising against the Roman Empire acknowledged as the
downward turning point of that great state, Dio Cassius, a second century AD Roman
historian, records in Roman History, “The Jews were destroying both Greeks and
Romans. They ate the flesh of their victims, made belts for themselves out of their
entrails, and daubed themselves with their blood… In all, 220,000 men perished in
Cyrene and 240,000 in Cyprus, and for this reason no Jew may set foot in Cyprus
today.” Unless we waken to our past we are doomed to repeat it!
@Alex
Their fake “God” promised de Kiken the entire world, and everything in it.
If the ancient Kiken would have known about the rest of the galaxy and the universe at large, they’d have said he promised the that, as well — after all, they’d have claimed that he created it.
