@ momce:
Again (and again, and again, and again...), the Greeks are not the issue. No one is arguing for the Greeks. The Greeks have no connection to anything. We agree that the Greeks are irrational, lunatic liars. Finished and Amen.
Now, the question is, who are the Macedonians of the Republic? On what historical basis do they claim a connection with the ancient kingdom of Macedonia? The Government in Skopje has spent part of tens of millions of euros creating a connection between the ROM and the ancient Macedonian kingdom. On what historical evidence? With what proof? The government in Skopje and many people from ROM claim an inheritance and a continuity from the ancient kingdom of Macedonia. The government has named stadiums, airports, highways and other infrastructure after ancient Macedonian historical figures to affirm that connection. On what grounds do they do this? What is the evidence? Is it all a "Rosetta Stone" hustle? A national delusion? I simply don't know.
Many posters on this site maintain a connection between the ROM and the ancient kingdom. Please state any historical evidence for this conclusion. Is it a secret?
I have posted evidence from several sources (including Eugene Borza and academic sources from Skopje as well as ROM government personnel) that state clearly that there is not and that there cannot be a connection between the people and nation of ROM and the ancient kingdom of Macedonia.
Every time I ask for any linguistic, geographic or historical proof of the link between the ROM and the ancient kingdom of Macedonia, I only get back attacks against the Greeks.
Is hatred for Greece and the Greeks your only national identity?
FUCK THE GREEKS!
