Greek Gen Sec of Education: Identity created in 19th Century

[julie]

Voltron our holy grail we already know about and have. Its people like yourself that are into stealing Macedonian history that poo poo it. We know what we are and no amount of your western support in your bullshit made up Greek state with stolen Macedonian lands will tell us otherwise. Go jump with that insulting comment, you really insult our intelligence, on a Macedonian forum

Thanks for that Voltron.
We value your opinion.

Julie, There is no stealing of history. There is an overlap of history shared by both countries with diametrical views of interpretation. Espescially within the last 20 years or so.

Risto, I just didnt see how Thalia Dragos is worth mentioning. Another liberal with an opinion that wants to be heard. Sorry.

Coming from a Greek that stole 51% Macedonia 1913.
Go rant about it on a grk forum about my interpretation

Julie,

We are not so different in the way both our countries lost land. I remember wanting to spit on the minarets that were planted on Aghia Sophia. What can we do ? Pls dont take it personal.

yes voltron some people are led by a leash tied to their nose & they know it but are afraid to admit it.They get fed propaganda & bs & eventually crack under pressure as it's irrational.But they go on trying to depict us as the bad guys after their land.But when one looks at the facts it's the otherway around.These people like Dragos that reveal the truth about greece as i fear for them after they have made the comments they have made there willl be reprissals against them as they aren't following the set "norm".Loss of jobs status,jail,beatings etc etc.

[Voltron]

If there are reprisals it will be because they have driven this country into an economic blackhole. Not because of what Ms Dragos thinks.

Well voltron given to what's going on in greece do you think the ordinary man & woman will have had a gutfull & start revolting.You can't just say they don't care but they must have an anger at the way they have been lied to by the govt.From my discussions with greeks living in the diaspora they say they had enough of the politics & bs & have come for a better life.They said in greece it's like a powderkeg waiting soon to explode.

Im hoping it does explode. We need to clean the slate.
Im just hoping for sooner rather than later. Im also considering going back home. But im not so sure how much better off things are over there. The weather in the midwest is something that I dont know if I could cope with it again.

i don't think it's the ordinary citizens more like the govt policies & practices.When it's all said & done we all want the same thing.A job.roof over our heads ,a family,a car etc we all aspire to the same things.Voltron i hope that its sooner than later.I hope as well something happens in rom & clears rhe deck for a better future.
