    Don't forget that Greek kingdom of 1820s was just a beginning. Philhellenes`s ultimate plan was expanding in to the Albania, Macedonia, Crete and all other Aegean islands, then Turkey too. Thats why since the formation of Greece in Morea, they constantly expanded their territories `till 1922. They were able to occupy half of Macedonia, all Aegean islands, then they tried but failed to get Turkey and Albania. Also, remember that there is no Albania and no Turkey for them, since you are Epiriot hellenes and we are Ionian and Pontus Greeks to them, just like the people in Macedonia was Macedonian Hellenes!!! So, in that sense, their ultimate aim was to unite all Albanians under the mythical umbrella of Hellenism.

    Venizelos simply begged to the British, France and US for Greek expansion in to the "Epirus" at Paris peace conference in 1922 but he failed.

      That's right! If Philhellenes put forward any claim to any territory they automatically find out some 'Hellenic' ingredients to legitimize it. We've been already accustomed with that. By the way, I'll post into respective threads a concise resume pointing out the artificial formation of 'Greek nation'. It has been written from sociological angle and is one of the best analysis I've seen so far. They are Turk sociologists but their methodology and impartiality is brilliant.

        Before I give any response, let me ask you a question instead: Do you deny that Muslims in Macedonia (of various ethnicity) are being pressured to declare themselves as Muslims by the Wahabists "humanitarian" groups? Arabs (no matter to what religious fraction they belong to) aren't interested to arise any national feeling among Muslims of Macedonia because this doesn't suit to their much-dreamed goal: the "Muslimanization" of all Muslims of Macedonia. The national idea is a fierce enemy in the eyes of Arabs. They are doing the best to prevent people from declaring their nationality/ethnicity. Do you get my point?

        I think this is an overreaction, RTG was not calling Albanians dogs, he was referring to their flying of Albanian flags from newly erected mosques as "marking their territory", regardless of who is providing the funding and resources to erect these mosques - it appears to me that that is what they are doing. When stuctures appear on the Macedonian horizon then it is quite within reasonable limits to question their construction/approval/purpose of use - don't you think?
        On Delchev's sarcophagus you can read the following inscription: "We swear the future generations to bury these sacred bones in the capital of Independent Macedonia. August 1923 Illinden"

          Dogs mark out a boundary by pissing. Ethnic Albanians are doing it in Macedonia by building mosques. Macedonians do it by building churches. I did not call ethnic Albanians in Macedonia dogs. Grow up or learn English better.

          Far be it from me to call all Albanians as dogs. I have only really known 3 Albanians and they were all very nice people. It has nothing to do with the above observation.

          I don't get your point even a little bit. It is well known that ethnic Albanians of Macedonia are pressuring non-Albanians to declare as Albanians by citing their religious affiliation as proof of Albanian ethnicity. Don't blame the Arabs for this Epirot. It is simple stuff really that is more than self evident.

          I note you never replied to my previous email querying your knowledge of the Framework Agreement and how it defies the "numbers" logic you tried to present.

            .
            I highly suspect that because religious affiliation cannot represent an Albanian identity because the latter is not shaped by religion. As I've explained through my earlier posts, we Albanians do not identify ourselves with any religion. Albanians though Muslims by faith, they neither identified with it nor considered it as a part of their identity. On the contrary, other religions were used in past as means of assimilation of peoples in Macedonia as the renowned Macedonian patriot, K. Misirkov asserted:

            If we consider the present state of religious propaganda in Macedonia we will be struck by the fact that in most cases it serves as a means towards national and political ends. Protestantism and Catholicism in Macedonia have religious aims only because those who propagate these faiths behave with great respect towards even the most insignificant aspects of the various ways of life of the Macedonian nationalities. And so nobody has the right to complain about their activities.

            Unfortunately, however, the Orthodox religion - the oldest, the most widespread, the basic faith of all the nationalities of Macedonia - has completely lost sight of its main aim, which is to encourage brotherhood amongst the different nationalities and to ennoble the hearts of the believers. And instead of pursuing these noble aims the Orthodox religion has simply spread discord and envy. It has now become the chief weapon of those who wish to spread purely nationalist and political propaganda. The Orthodox faith in Macedonia has now become so compromised that one can no longer speak of a true Orthodox church, for there are now three churches, and they are not Orthodox but Greek, Bulgarian and Serbian. Why must this be so? Should not the Church be One, Holy, Episcopal and Apostolic? Yes. The Church should indeed be One and Holy, and not Serbian, Greek or Bulgarian. In Macedonia the Church has been deflected from its main aim, and so the intelligentsia and the common folk of Macedonia have every right to use all powers available to them to purge the Church of her purely nationalist aims and replace them with those which were laid down by the Holy Founder so that the gospel might be preached in all tongues, i.e. all nationalities would come to the faith through their own language.
            Krste Misirkov analyzed excellently the misuse of religions in Macedonia. What I'm trying to say is that our neighbors (Serbia, Bulgaria and Greece) base their identity exclusively on Orthodoxism or to say in other words, Orthodoxy is a strong component of their 'national' identity. So it's not that wonder if they turned Orthodoxy into a weapon to usurp others lands. We do not base our national identity on any religion so we never used it as a mean of assimilation. It seems that I was quite misunderstood here because I never defend Muslim faith or anything like that. I myself am atheist...or rather I'd prefer to believe on Illyrian gods than Eastern imported religions. But I don't deny that sometimes religions are provided as useful for a better society. I'll quote again Misirkov's statement: " Should not the Church be One, Holy, Episcopal and Apostolic? Yes. The Church should indeed be One and Holy, and not Serbian, Greek or Bulgarian".

            I note you never replied to my previous email querying your knowledge of the Framework Agreement and how it defies the "numbers" logic you tried to present
            To be honest, I didn't see the last replies on that thread because most of this week I was quite busy with my boring job in library. Of course I'll give my response. Be patient!

              Epirot, you simply cannot compare the Albanians of Albania in terms of religious affiliation and its significance with that of the ethnic Albanians in Macedonia. I suspect Kosovo is similar to Macedonia but may sit somewhere in between Albania and Macedonia in relation to this matter.

                All great and wonderful observations Epirot. Good on you for showing at least one Albanian in the world has half a brain. Or at least a third.

                Now admit that Albanians in Macedonia get faaaaaaar more than they deserve.

                And give me one good reason why the motherfuckers in the parliament (who don't belong there) shouldn't be expelled from the country for being terrorists?

                  Do not make such labellings and try to behave in a civilized manner. Saying that Albanians 'have no brain' smell racism...so please spare me from such racist mentality.

                  Now admit that Albanians in Macedonia get faaaaaaar more than they deserve.
                  I'd suggest you immediately to read once again our recent exhausting discussions about that matter:



                  And give me one good reason why the motherfuckers in the parliament (who don't belong there) shouldn't be expelled from the country for being terrorists?
                  I'm really not in the mood to reply with that because you obviously are biased and not realistic. I do not support any Albanian politician in Macedonia for the simple reason that they do not care about people that are allegedly represented by them. All what I've seen is that their personal wealth has no boundary and this irks me so much because people are becoming every time more poor in terms of economical prosperity. Can you at least give me a definition what you mean with 'terrorism' and where do you see it to be celebrated? Thnx

                    Epirot, we can see terrorism celebrated by the ethnic Albanians of Macedonia by looking at their statues AND leaders no less. But you can see some of that in this thread. When you get a chance, please immerse yourself in the Framework Agreement and let me know your answer to my previous question that you have acknowledged recently.

                      Scandal: New Mosque in Skopje Commemorating Terrorists

                      In Gazi Baba Municipality:





                      The plaque on the mosque with the names of terrorists



                      If a mosque in the USA was built in honor if Osama Bin-Laden, how long would it be until the building is shut down by authorities? It would be shut down instantly. But not in Macedonia where there is no law and people can do whatever they want.

                        Epirot, any clarification about the people that Macedonians (and probably Americans before it became inappropriate) refer to as terrorists above?

                          Same prices for Kosovo and Macedonian patients

                          14.03.2011 16:46

                          Bujar Osmani

                          The citizens of Kosovo will pay the same price for private medical services and makedonkite citizens, if the Ministry of Health has adopted this requirement of the Kosovo Ministry.

                          According to Osmani this was logical because Kosovo citizens did two-thirds of all foreign patients who are treated in Macedonia.

                          "Our interest as a country is to become a regional center for a number of health services and have a larger number of patients from other states who would use the services in the Republic of Macedonia," said Bujar Osmani, Minister of Health.

                          Kosovo Minister of Health explained that services in the country most interested in his countrymen.

                          If adopted this requirement of Kosovo becomes an open question what will happen to people who already makedonkite stand recorded on the waiting lists are the longest exactly in cardiac surgery, radiotherapy, oncology.

                          Although the Ministry of Health has failed to reduce the waiting time in the current situation, Osmani said that the patients navalicata of Kosovo, Macedonian citizens would not wait longer.

                          "According to the new Law on Health Care, provides the citizens of Macedonia have always priority in waiting lists," said Osmani.

                          Now Kosovo citizens pay the same as all other aliens, and double triduplo over domestic citizens, as is normal practice in all countries and the same goes for Macedonian citizens are treated abroad pay more expensive than local citizens. http://www.a1.com.mk/vesti/default.aspx?VestID=135507
                          Sorry about the poor google translation. But apparently, 2 out of 3 of all foriegn patients are Kosovo Albanians. On another report (i must start saving these articles) Treatment in Macedonia costs 1/3 of what it costs in Kosovo. Well mabe Kosovo should go back to Serbia or cry to there US masters. The major problem from this is there is risk these Kosovars over stay their visit. On top of that, the hospital waiting list surely must be stretched becouse of this therefor the Macedonian citizens are suffering.


                          With the risk of being accused of promoting VMRO i will take that chance and must give them credit on this occasion and hope they stand firm this time.

                          VMRO does not want Kosovo patients

                          VMRO-DPMNE will not accept patients from Kosovo to be treated in this country under the same conditions as our citizens, responding in a statement this party. - Citizens of the Republic should have absolute priority to their treatment in health facilities and hospitals - MP Vlatko Gjorcev react. This reaction follows a statement by Health Minister Bujar Osmani that to develop health tourism is supposed to allow patients from Kosovo, when paying for treatment in the country, a place like aliens to be treated as domestic private patients. If the commitment of the Minister of Health accepted the cost of treating these patients in the Macedonian hospitals will fall by two to three.

                            It would be political suicide to promote an even footing for health care for Kosovars as compared to Macedonians (in Macedonia).

                              Hmmm, our Health Minister is an ethnic Albanian....... could that fact be related to this?

                              Honestly, putting the sarcasm aside, MACEDONIANS need to wake up and realize that Albanians have a conflict of interest, meaning they have higher priorities for their own people over Macedonians, so in whatever level of government you put them in they will continue to work to achieve their goals and their goals only!

                                Menduh Thaci: Macedonia has no future without Albanians

                                The leader of the Democratic Party of Albania(DPA), Menduh Thaci during an informational rally in Kumanovo, said that DPA is concerned about the financial discrimination that is done to Albanians by the Macedonian government.

                                Minister also spoke about problems in the municipality of Lipkovo and the exodus of Albanians who last year abandoned their homes for a asylee in the western countries.

                                "Those who went to Belgium, Sweden and other European Union countries will never come back in Macedonia, the same will happen with those who went to Turkey in last 50-years". / albeu.com /
