No one has ever denied that USA acts on behalf of its own interests, I don't know what you are arguing about? No one ever said they were proud of America acting on their own interests, I said that Macedonia could use that to its benefit... And excuse me, but are you talking of general Americans, or the American Macedonians? I would advise you be careful how you phrase these statements.
You keep alluding to the comparison of being a prostitute, did you ever wonder why women became prostitutes? I assure you it was not by choice, and it was not because they were well off, and were able to support themselves.
I am not sure what will happen if I phrase statements in any particular way in relation to general comments about Americans. I like many South Americans if that helps you.
Many (not all) prostitutes merely make lifestyle choices. They are often frowned upon in society for taking the easy way out. I am sure I should interpret your final comment that Macedonia should indeed prostitute itself because it is not well off and unable to support itself. This is why you give up so easily. ... This is why I say forums can often reveal more about a person than a few meetings ever could. If we met, you would be another chest beating proud Macedonian. But as the words keep flowing here, you are on the bed copping it royally by the stars and stripes so your Macedonian relatives can learn Albanian back home. I bet you don't look like Julia Roberts as well.Risto the Great

Secondly you know what I said regarding Meto's comments and I don't appreciate you misrepresenting my statements.
SoM, you have proven to be one of the most reasonable people to hold a conversation with on this forum, our past history and differences aside, I respect that. I am not a UMD messenger boy, and any and all arguments I have made concerning UMD are in an attempt to offer a different perspective and interpretation of the disputed statements. I will not force you to believe my interpretations but I believe they not only balance the debate, but provide an opportunity to weed out the week and irrelevant arguments that cannot be substantiated or proved.In the name of the blood and the sun, the dagger and the gun, Christ protect this soldier, a lion and a Macedonian.

Buktop, Russia recognized Stari Kraj alot earlier then USA did for starters.МАКЕДОНЕЦ си кога кавал ќе ти ја распара душата,зурла ќе ти го раскине срцето,кога секое влакно од кожата ќе ти се наежи кога ќе видиш шеснаесеткрако сонце,кога до коска ќе те заболи кога ќе слушнеш ПЈРМ,кога немаш ни за леб,а полн си во душата затоа што ја сакаш МАКЕДОНИЈА. МАКЕДОНИЈА во срце те носиме.

Buktop for somebody who has defended Meto's statements with the steady hand of a surgeon of semantics you deliberately butcher other statements when it serves a different agenda...

It seems that when Meto is not channelling himself through Buktop, the ideas of the 'real' man are pretty shallow...

Buktop, take off your UMD cap for a minute and tell me what you think about the UMD press release where the Macedonian Government has decided to increase troop numbers to Afghanistan...do you "APPLAUD" that decision in the same manner as UMD...?

Soldier of Macedon,
You were the one who turned this thread into something about the UMD and were the first to make sweeping generalisations.
You had the nerve to call me a bitch when you were the one who started attacking me and the UMD in the same breath, like a little picka, without any substantiation.
You need to reconsider what this thread was really about and have some sort of proof before you make comments about my "history" with members that is so "well known".
Most importantly, you should realise why I say what I say and do what I do. In the context of this thread, your contribution was about as useful as my childish comments.Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici

I have had enough of the divisiveness within the Macedonian diaspora. Disputes between UMD and other parties, disputes between churchesYou had the nerve to call me a bitch when you were the one who started attacking me and the UMD in the same breath......
I don't care anymore. I'm not about to get into arguments......with someone I don't know who has analysed it to shreds and who thinks I have personal issues.....Call it back-peddling, call it bitching out....
Originally posted by Soldier of Macedon....unless of course you considered your conduct as a bitch a normal everday thing.
.......and were the first to make sweeping generalisations
All I see is people pushing their own agendas veiled by a seemingly genuine concern for Macedonian issues........
Most importantly, you should realise why I say what I say and do what I do.
....need to be honest on an internet forum that I go on when I'm bored.In the name of the blood and the sun, the dagger and the gun, Christ protect this soldier, a lion and a Macedonian.

Levin: US should reverse decision to recognize Macedonia's name
State Department should reverse the decision to recognize FYROM by its constitutional name to avoid negative impact on the ongoing talks on the name, US senator said in a letter.
Senator Carl Levin, a Democrat of Michigan, wrote a letter to Macedonian community in Michigan in response to thousands of letters from the community there asking him not to support the pro-Greek resolution in the Senate. He urged the State Department to reconsider the 2004 decision to recognize Macedonia by its constitutional name.
"On November 4, 2004, the State Department announced that the FYROM would now be recognized as the Republic of Macedonia. I am concerned that this decision may have a negative impact on negotiations between the FYROM and Greece, which have been working to resolve differences concerning the Republic's name," Senator Levin wrote in his letter.
"In response to the unilateral decision by the State Department, I joined several of my colleagues in writing Secretary of State Colin Powell expressing our concerns about the decision. The letter expressed our support for the negotiations taking place between FYROM and Greece and our view that the State Department should reverse this decision to avoid negatively impacting these talks."
The United Macedonian Diaspora (UMD) reacted to the letter. UMD President Metodija Koloski told Makfax news agency that Senator Levin should honor the decision that recognizes Macedonia's constitutional name, and this decision is the position of Democrats' administration.
"The Senator should worry about the problems caused by the economic crisis in Michigan and the high unemployment rate rather than meddling in bilateral disputes," Koloski said.
Democrat Carl Levin is one of the most influential members of the Senate. He was present in Macedonia in 1999 during the Kosovo crisis. Hence, he is deemed to be quite familiar with the situation in the Balkan region and the issues related to Macedonia. /end/ vsFor comments, questions, concerns, please contact us at:

You would think a Jewish guy would support a race of people who have been downtrodden for so long.
The same guy that supported NATO targeting Serbia infrastructure as a result of a domestic dispute. Kosovo was indeed dear to him, perhaps he simply likes ethnic Albanians more than Macedonians.
Here is a list of Kosovo "successes":
* that the international missions ignore or violate central provisions of UN Security Council resolution 1244 on the basis of which they are in Kosovo/a;
* that we can't help the Albanians imprisoned in Serbia because the West officially will have nothing to do with authorities in Belgrade;
* that NATO leaders stand accused of war crimes at the Hague Tribunal while citizens of NATO countries hardly know about it;
* that according to international humanitarian organisations there are between 900.000 and 1.000.000 refugees in Serbia/Montenegro - from Croatia, Bosnia and Kosovo, i.e. more than the Albanians who fled to Albania and Macedonia and who were promised a safe return;
* that the largest ethnic cleansing in the Balkans has happened under the very eyes of 45.000 NATO troops, and thousands UN civilians and police, OSCE and NGOs;
* that CIA and other dark organisations have obtained millions of dollars to overthrow the Belgrade government (e.g. Operation Matrix) - and were on the ground all the time;
* that the West maintains sanctions and isolation of Serbia and thus victimises not only the refugees but the 9 million citizens of multi-ethnic Serbia and Montenegro;
* that media, with few exceptions, have stopped asking questions about all this;
* that the EU brings oil only to cities run by opposition parties and thereby violates the finest principle of humanitarianism: that human suffering/needs should be the only criteria;
* that you never heard about financial "crisis" when NATO bombed and brought 45.000 heavily armed soldiers on the ground;
* that criminality, mafia operations, corruption and prostitution has skyrocketed in Kosovo after the arrival of the international community;
* that there is a full war going on behind the scenes about who should be the scapegoat for this the most bogus policy in the post-Cold War era.
"Kosovo is now the Big Unmentionable. We know 'Realpolitik' is not about ethics. But we are making a mockery of democracy if a handful of leaders get away with all this without being made accountable for the consequences of their deeds.
Is there ONE government in Europe that dares speak up against US dominance and refuses to be be taught lessons, as above, by American leaders who caused 90% of the destruction? Is there ONE European government leader with enough civil courage to tell us that something went wrong - and remains wrong?
The big ones who ran the show won't. But non-NATO Sweden and Finland or NATO-Norway and Denmark could: the good news is that independent countries can have independent views; that's what international democracy is all about. The bad news is that this is ignored.
The Nordic countries have traditions of open debate; they used to support the UN, stand firmly on principles of international law and prefer dialogue to guns. They used to care about justice and aid to those most in need. Imagine that Sweden had not contributed to the military congestion in Kosovo: it could then have saved the whole UN mission now!
The silence about the docility and complicity of smaller governments in the Balkan tragedy is ominous - and their conscience won't be cleared by raising their voices about WWII HolocaustRisto the Great

Don't base your opinion of the U.S. towards Macedonia based on one Senator, from a state with the weakest economy at the moment.

It's too bad there can no longer be any discussion about certain things without the tentacles of the UMD jumping into it. It doesn't have anything to do with representing Macedonians. It has everything to do with mind control and spin. How someone like Mr. Buktop, can be on line 24/7 cranking it out at every point when the littlest word anywhere is trickled out that has something to do with the UMD is beyond belief. You have to wonder how can he do it, what is the motivation and who does he represent?
It seems the Macedonians in ‘Greece’ and ‘Bulgaria’ now have more freedom to discuss the government than we do to discuss the UMD thanks to the UMD mind police. I'd really like to see even three paragraphs of something on the UMD be said without Mr. Buktop jumping on his horse to the rescue (or so he thinks). Then we will 'end the stupidity'.Last edited by Silver; 01-21-2010, 10:02 AM.

Damn... look where their economy is now as a result of all these bribery activities.The purpose of the media is not to make you to think that the name must be changed, but to get you into debate - what name would suit us! - Bratot
