"It appears I've struck a nerve when I suggested that you could be of Turkish decent. I know who I am. I am Macedonian. I am not Bulgarian, nor am I Greek. As for Bulgarians I don't understand what they say. There are only words that i can pick up here and there. But I can also say the same thing about the Serbian, Bosnian, Croatrion, Slovenian, and even Russian languages. Why don't you suggest that I am Serbian or Russian for that matter? Because that is not part of the propoganda that was agreed upon with the Bulgarians and Greeks in the treaty where Macedonian was butchered apart. The ideas of nations or countries is a new idea, thousands of years ago there were kingdoms and those kingdoms conquered terretories. At one point Rome ruled the world, then Spain, then England and now US. The ideas of countries or nations came about recently. Before WW2 every territory was up for grabs but after WW2 the lines were drawn and now it's a little more difficult to take land that doesn't belong to them. I know what you're afraid of. YOu are scared the truth will be learned about the Greeks and the tactics they used to push Macedonians out of Solun or Thesoluniki. The Greeks committed genocide much the same way the Nazis did but unfortunately for us the eye of the media was not that advanced in the early 1900's. In order to perserve the idea of Greek Macedonia and it's history, they killed Macedonians, they changed writting on graves and buildings that were written in Macedonian. I have family that comes from Macedonia that is in Greece and there's nothing you can say to convince me of that never occuring. "

"If you are so insistent that Macedonians are Greeks who speak Greek and are Greek by nature, call yourselves Greeks and not Macedonians then. Obviously you identify more with Greece, so the people you are referring to are Greek. So let those who call themselves Macedonians and speak Macedonian and feel Macedonian call themselves Macedonians, and those are the slavic Macedonians. "
