No problem Daskale, I couldn't upload in imageshack before, thanks for putting it up. The riot between Albanians and Turks in Philates may be of some interest to Epirot and Onur.

Here is an article from March 24, 1902, about Macedonian cooperation with Armenians through Boris Sarafov, in which the latter is trying to rally support for an uprising in Macedonia.

Macedonians in Odrinsko, Macedonians and Armenians in common action during Ottoman times, these citations are important for historical reference.

[Bratot]

“The Armenian-Macedonian alliance was to be sanctified in the summer of 1901. Near Adrionople (Edirne), a band of Armenian and Macedonian revolutionaries became embroiled in a battle with Turkish regular troops.” (Six were killed, and four prisoners were taken, evenly split between the Armenians and Macedonians, later hanged.)

It means that the massacres were the 'standard practice/operation' or the 'norm', as opposed to it happening occasionally or 'here and there' as isolated incidents.

What does it mean with : was the rule rather than the exception ?
