Macedonians have always been Greek speaking Hellenic people, only hardened propagandists or severely brainwashed Individuals equate Alexander the Great and the ancient Macedonians from antiquity to SerboBulgarian speaking ex-Yugoslavs from FYRoM, so does it matter then, I mean, the opinions of Goran and Zlatco or the opinions of Mehmetin and Abdul...they No matter, right!
As far as I am aware...It is only Goran and Zlatco, supported by Mehmetin and Abdul that deny wholeheartedly the Greek-Hellenic Identity of Alexander the Great and the ancient Macedonians from antiquity, but does it matter though, I mean really, does it matter what Goran and Zlatco thinks, or what Mehmetin and Abdul thinks ???
Macedonians are Greeks...this is what is known about them, this is how they have been recorded in the mainstream historical narrative, throughout the annals of our common European history.
FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs are not Macedonian, at least not in the Greek sense of that word...this information should not be kept from them, it should be made common knowledge, in their schools, in the colleges and in their universities, they should know what the rest of the learned world know, that Macedonians have always been Greek speaking Hellenic people...
...the longer FYRoM's extremist Slavist revisionist pseudo-histororians deny this, I mean, keep this knowledge from their youth, the longer FYRoM shall wonder alone, out in the wilderness of isolation, kept at arms length, at a distance from the European family

Macedonians have always been Greek speaking Hellenic people, it's time for our SerboBulgarian speaking neighbours from FYRoM to recognize this fact, they should simply accept and acknowledge this documented academic reference point wholeheartedly...carrying on blind, in the knowledge they were Indoctrinated with servs only to prolong their agony, I mean, clearly, they miscalculated the feedback from the International community, virtually all nations of this world understand that the Macedonian name can not be claimed by a peoples who's forebears were known to be newcomers, foreign outsiders to the Haemus [Balkan] peninsula who had absolutely no ethnic-racial, cultural or linguistic connections to that name and that relationship has been onward transmitted to their modern descendents, FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs.
Slavist revisionist pseudo-historians from the old Yugoslavia miscalculated...they instilled into the minds of the simple-hearted the Idea they were native, so to think of themselves as Macedonians and to think of ancient Macedonians as Slavs which is what they do, in a very stubborn way, this is the reason why they are in so much trouble because the first Macedonians were known to have been a Greek speaking Hellenic people, not SerboBulgarian speaking SouthSlavs from FYRoM.
In their minds, FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs are Macedonian, this is their reality, but it is not actual reality, so I dont want to be the one to take that away from them...I simply want to make them aware that the first Macedonians were Greeks, Greek speaking Hellenic people, this is what we want from them, to recognize and acknowledge in No uncertain terms the Greek-Hellenic Identity of Alexander the Great and the ancient Macedonians from antiquity.
Slavic nations should tell FYRoM...they are SouthSlavs beyond a shadow of doubt, who's relationship to Macedonia does not transcend that of regional-geographic Identity.

Macedonia today is a geographic region shared by Greeks and Slavs...the original ancient part is back in Greek hands, 51% of it inside Hellenic borders, the remainder was never real or proper Macedonia, rather named that way for administrative purposes depending on the ruling entity, so from here we can glean, I mean, reasonably conclude that today in the modern era, the term Macedonia(n) has regional connotations traversing geographic Identities which include not just Greeks but Bulgarians Serbs and Albanians amongst others.
Lets be clear...It is not unreasonable for a simple-hearted SouthSlav to accept the first Macedonians as being Greek speaking Hellenic people. It is not unreasonable for FYRoM to accept Alexander the Great as the Greek-Hellenic king of Macedon, and it is not unreasonable for Greeks to accept ex-Yugoslavs as Macedonians in the regional-geographic context.
Greeks have always said...today, Macedonia(n) is a regional-geographic Identity not ethnic Identity, and certainly not national Identity.
I say, lets end the name dispute in a sensible, civilized manner...lets end it Now!

Macedonia: Is Macedonia Hellenic YES or NO
The question is not complicated...It is an open question designed to make the reader think. Those who know history will answer accordingly, those who dont know history tend to be Turkic* or Slavic* [*Terms and conditions apply]
As can be attested to here, in the many responses from those who come here to defend FYRoM...for them, Macedonia is Not Hellenic, for them, it is just Macedonia even though
historian scholars and academic alike place Alexander the Great and the ancient Macedonians from antiquity into the Greek domain, In with the Greek family of nations, into the Greek-Hellenic collective of peoples.
Macedonia ofcourse is Hellenic...Macedonians have always been Greek speaking Hellenic people, not because Greeks say so but because it is recorded that way in the annals of our common European history books. The long established mainstream historical narrative records them as a Greek speaking Hellenic people, not SerboBulgarian speaking SouthSlavs from FYRoM.
FYRoM's SouthSlavs, some of them Greek born, some of them offspring of Greek born SouthSlavs...well, these are the most damaged, I mean ofcourse the most brainwashed and the most Indoctrinated, these were amongst the 28,000 Greek children kidnapped at the end of the Greek cilvil war [1949] on the orders of extremist Slavist revisionists from the old Yugoslavia and exported, I mean settled into eastern block communist countries were they recieved heavy doses of anti-Hellenic Indoctrination...It is these Indoctrinated Janissaries who deny quite fervently that Macedonians have always been Greek, they say Macedonians are not Greeks and Greeks themselves are not real Greeks but Albanians Vlachs and Turks.
There is no fixing their ailment...they are simply far too gone to be saved, like the Janissaries before them, I mean, like the Greek born children the Turk took, then converted into Ottoman Turkish soldiers, then placed them on the front lines to kill Greeks and other Europeans, this business the Greek are used to, afterall, this behaviour is common to both Turkics and Slavics where they take other peoples children and convert them into Musulmen Turkistanis or communist Slavists to be unleashed against their own kind, their own kith and kin.

Unlike our European cousins, Greeks have to live next to TurkoSlavs, uncomprising neighbours who view Greeks with contempt, where Hellenism for them is a loaded word and where Hellenic Ideals and core values mean little and count for nothing...for Greeks to breath again something needs to change in the Haemus [Balkan] peninsula, I mean, if Greeks and Hellenism are to survive in their own Homelands we need to make the TurkoSlavic presence aware that they are living in a region of the world which spawned Hellenism.
There is a fix for FYRoM's Indoctrinated SouthSlavs, they simply need to be weened-off their predicament slowly, over the course of their lifetime, in the meantime Greeks shall continue defending what is theirs by historic and hereditary right, I mean, we shall protect Hellenism...
...Come Hell or High Water!

Macedonia:History Should Not Be Used as a Weapon!
History should not be used as a weapon...It should be used for reference so we do not have to repeat the mistakes of the past.
History's reference points are many, hardly anybody disputes them but for revisionists, those who want to rewrite our common European history, more often than not for political reasons.
The long established mainstream historical record is robust, it has served academia well...there is no reason, either academic or scholarly to abandon it, I mean to discard it for a better one, a different one, or somebody elses version when it has withstood the test of academic scrutiny for centuries.
When historian scholars and academics alike cross reference ancient Greek history with that of other ancient cultures...they find it to be perfectly consistant with other peoples histories. They also find it to be perfectly compatible with the long established mainstream historical record, with no conflicts and with no clashes, so from here we can safely deduce that when history recorded Macedonians as a Greek speaking Hellenic peoples, it was right proper and correct.
The mainstream historical record can not be held hostage to revisionist Theories Ideas and Conjectures pending their academic approval!
Revisionism and pseudo-history attempts to persuade us that ancient Macedonians were SerboBulgarian speaking SouthSlavs
from FYRoM...but I'm not convinced about that...are You!

Macedonia: Them Over There :: Us Over Here
Them over there...SouthSlavs, wanting to usurp [exclusively] the Macedonian Name for (i) Country,(ii) Nationality,(iii) Language and (iv) Ethnicity.
Us over here...Greeks, wanting to protect the Macedonian Name from being usurped, by Them, in order to defend our Greek-Hellenic heritage.
Can you see the Silliness!
When push comes to shove...ultimately, they are viewed in the same vain as SouthSlavs, Serbians and Bulgarians respectively.
When all is said and done...Macedonians have always been viewed as Greek speaking Hellenic people, from since ancient times.
Based on this Information...draw your own conclusions ?
FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs are SouthSlavs in transition...I mean, they are in a transitional period making the leap from one ethnic-racial heritage to another...
...first time in the recorded history of mankind where in the modern age, we are witness to SouthSlavic people wanting to swap their Slavic heritage for a Hellenic one!

Forgot to add this......
There is no natural process known to man or science which can make Macedonians out of SouthSlavs...none that I can think of!
This is the first time, in the recorded history of mankind where SouthSlavic people are found wanting to exchange their Slavic heritage for a Hellenic one, but to be taken seriously, they must Re-Hellenize and they must do it willingly and voluntarily if they want to share in the history and heritage of the Greeks.
You can belong to an ethnic group:
1...If You Really Want It
2...If They Accept You
It is called assimilation, where outsiders integrate into the host society [[willingly][voluntarily]] absorbing the the host culture, their ways customs and traditions

Because FYRoM SouthSlavs know very little about their own history and about their own heritage, Greeks feel obliged to educate them, seeing that there are no real efforts made from the Slavic side to do that job, I mean to bring them up to standard, up to spec so to speak in the knowledge we in the West consider to be common knowledge. It is all but given...common knowledge as one might say in the West, Macedonians have always been Greek speaking Hellenic people, this is how they are perceived and how they have been recorded in the annals of the historical mainstream narrative.
Macedonia(n)...when this term is used, it is used to refer to northern Greeks, it is a Greek regional-tribal name, an Identity long associated with Alexander the Greats kingdom in northern Greece. The original ancient geographic region of Macedonia is still within the modern borders of the Hellenic Republic, regained from the Ottoman Turks who were ejected from Hellenic soil after some 500 years of eastern asiatic Turkic Musulman rule. The Greeks did well to rid themselves of the oriental Musulman Turk and to regain the original ancient part of Macedonia safely back in Greek hands!

Greeks jealously guard their history and their heritage, so
they get riled when FYRoM's SouthSlavs use the Macedonian name to refer to their country, to their nationality, to their language and to their ethnicity...but none of these constituent rudiments could be considered bona-fide or real when it is known that authentic Macedonian have always been Greek speakers and Hellenic people. FYRoM's Macedonian Identity is at best questionable, not least, on all those elements it contrives to convince, for example, the modern geographic region of FYRoM was known as Paeonia in ancient times not Macedonia at all, a small detail which seemingly got overlooked by those Slavists from the old Yugoslavia who's job it was to make Macedonians out of SouthSlavs.
As for FYRoM's so called Macedonian language...well, there is No way in the world it should be called "Macedonian" this is incorrect, just plain wrong and Immoral when it is known that FYRoM's language is Slavic, it is a mixture, a hybrid concoction of SerboBulgarian, developed exclusively for purpose, that purpose is known today, it is in plain view of the International community where we can witness Slavists from FYRoM's ruling elite attempting to make Macedonians out of SouthSlavs.

The Slavic Incursions of the 6th Century A.D. recorded a conglomorate alliance made-up of SlavoBulgar tribes under the Overlordship of the Avars, this barbarian alliance settled into the eastern Roman world. Outsiders, exogenous peoples from the east crossed over the Northern banks of the river Danube and set-up their first camps on Imperial Byzantium teritory...they did not come in as Macedonians, they came into the Haemus [Balkan] peninsula still using their own unique exogenous tribal names, most of which are known to historian scholars and academics alike so what rights do FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs have to the Macedonina name when it is known, their forebears were not Macedonians at all but rather an assortment of SlavoBulgar tribes who were subjugated under Avar overlordship.
Macedonians have always been Greek speaking Hellenic people...FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs are not Macedonians, I mean, they are not Macedonian in the Greek sense of that word no matter how hard they try to cloud over the fact they are descended from that foreign conglomorate alliance, no matter how hard they try to blur the distinction between Macedonians and the rest of the Greeks, the fog of their own Slavist revisionism and pseudo-history has served only to confuse Slavdoms youth who now walk the streets thinking of themselves as Macedonians and thinking of ancient Macedonians as Slavs...
...this is wrong, right

FYRoM's tomfoolery days are over because there are no more deceptions to use and there no more tricks to perform, they have all been exhausted. FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs can no longer say what they likes or do what they like within the confines of their own borders with impunity, there are consequences in promoting revisionism and pseudo-history to your own children pupils and students do it has become a farce...collateral damage has been felt far into the Slavic realm, but more important is the damage done to FYRoM's youth and to the national character where it has tipped over, gone beyond repair.
By erecting grand Grecian style monuments, gigantic statues of ancient Greeks and medievil era Bulgarian kings adds to the perception that FYRoM is home to deceptive people, willing to mislead or impress with false opinions. FYRoM is now viewed by the outside world as a country that can only survive in isolation, they see no common ground where FYRoM can exist at peace with itself or with it's neighbours because interaction with them servs only to distance it further away, for example, the more FYRoM draws attention to Alexander the Great and the ancient Macedonians from antiquity the more it is realized that FYRoM's connections to them are NoN existent, I mean there are none, there are No connections, at least not in the ethnic-racial, cultural or linguistic context...so it is a pretence, nothing more than a theatrical farce, done to see the Greeks humiliated and to denigrate Hellenism. It should be noted that FYRoM's actions are consistant and compatible with what the Greeks have been saying all along namely their Interest in the Greek peoples history and heritage is for denigration purposes only.

FYRoM SouthSlavs...To themselves they are Makedontsi, this is the Slavic version of Macedonian but to the outside world they are just SouthSlavs pure and simple, this is how they are perceived by the International community...FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs wish to be known as Macedonians without any mention of the Slav term, they consider it an insult and a racial slur. Some of them claim they have nothing to do with Slavs or Slavdom whilst others claim to be Slavs in the ethnic sense, some claim to be Slavicized whilst others claim to be native Indigenous and Slavic...confused, well yes they are, so it is left up to us the Greeks to set the record straight, so here goes...
...Greeks can not permit NoN-Greeks to usurp Greek things, I mean, to usurp elements from the Greek peoples cultural heritage in order to portray those elements as exclusively their own when in reality they never belonged to SouthSlavs in the first place. The Name and the Symbols of Macedonia, the Regalia and the Pageantry that are associated with that Macedonian name are under the custodial responsibility of the Greeks...the Hellenic Republic is morally and legally obliged to protect them and to defend them any which way, in the law courts and in every conceivable way the Hellenic state sees fit.

Macedonians have always been Greek speaking Hellenic people...I know that and you know that, but FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs do not know that because they were never told that nor ever taught that.
I say again, the first Macedonians were Greeks, Greek speakers and Hellenic people, they were not SerboBulgarian speaking SouthSlavs from FYRoM.
FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs call themselves Macedonians as if they have supreme rights to that name, which is in actual fact, foreign to them.
FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs are foreign to Macedonians, outside of their ethnic-racial, cultural and linguistic traditions.
Macedonians have always been Greeks, Greek speakers and Hellenic people, it's about time FYRoM's SouthSlavs were told that and taught that in no uncertain term!

Those shameless Slavists from the old Yugoslavia scripted FYRoM a history so crude and so crass, I mean it was found to be so Incompatible and so Inconsistant with the long established mainstream historical record, it got rejected by the International academic community.
FYRoM's extremist Slavist revisionist pseudo-historians overstepped the mark by suggesting the ancient Macedonians were not Greeks but Slavs...SerboBulgarian speaking SouthSlavs to be precise, which triggered off a revulsion so deep and so wide-spread amongst the International academic community it placed FYRoM out in the wilderness of isolation.
FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs wanting to Identify themselves as Macedonians in the ethnic-racial, cultural and linguistic context is not only confusing it is problematic also because it clashes and conflicts with what is already known about them...Macedonians are Greeks, this is what is known about them, this is how they have been recorded in the long established mainstream historical narrative and they are not about to relinquish their ancient and archaic, regional tribal name to SouthSlavs.
The International community have rejected FYRoM's claims, the heirs and Inheritors of Alexander the Greats legacy are the Greeks. Todays Greeks are the sole and legal modern representatives of the Hellenic legacy, which includes Alexander the Great and the ancient Macedonians from antiquity.
FYRoM's reasons and motives for wanting to use a Greek name to Identify with, to describe their country, their nationality, their language and their ethnicity remains very suspicious and a little skew, when it is known, they are SouthSlavs with no proven ethnic-racial, cultural or linguistic connections to Macedonians.
Because they call themselves and their language Macedonian,
does not make them real or authentic Macedonians and it certainly does not mean that the International community should follow suit in naming them Macedonian when it is known, Macedonians have always been Greek speaking Hellenic people.
FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs are Not Macedonians...everytime they use that name they cause problems and confusion because it is known, Macedonians have always been Greeks and they No give permission for their ancient and archaic, regional-tribal name to be used by foreigners who's forebears were outsiders, newcomers to the Haemus [Balkan] peninsula.

The name dispute must end...the onus is on FYRoM to do that, I mean, all eyes are on FYRoM to compromise, meaning, it is up to FYRoM to end the name dispute!
FYRoM keeps the name Macedonia, but it adds a prefix-suffix in front of it in order to distinguish FYRoM's type of Macedonians from the Greco-Macedonians.
We need that distinction to be in place in order to differentiate those Macedonians who can claim Alexander the Great for their ancestor from those who can not!
FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs descend in the main from those Slavic tribes that decided to settle in the Haemus [Balkan] peninsula back in the 6th Century A.D.
FYRoM's ancestors were Slavo-Bulgars, the Bulgarian element
Slavicized in less than two centuries taking on all the traits, customs and traditions of the Slavic tribes it ruled over.
Slavs, under Bulgarian overlordship settled next to Greeks, I mean, Greeks of the Eastern Roman Empire...Byzantine Greeks, Romioi, Eastern Romans.
Bulgarians, now Slavic in the way they walk and the way they talk have been living next to Greeks for some 1400 years...their ancestors camped, settled and resided in a region of the world known to have spawned Hellenism.
Yes, Slavs settled in Macedonia, but they are not Macedonian...only hardened propagandists or severley brainwashed Individuals venture to say these things, I mean, venture to make Macedonians out of SouthSlavs.
The name dispute must end...the Onus is FYRoM to do that!

Dignity and Honour...virtues all but defunct, yet they invoke something deep and something righteous in all of us!
There is No dignity in historical revisionism and there is certainly, No honour in subscribing to pseudo-history!
Where is the dignity in denying the Greek people, their full history and heritage in a region of the world known to have spawned Hellenism.
Where is the dignity in taking from Greeks, elements from their cultural heritage and presenting those elements to the outside world as NoN-Greek.
Where is the dignity in de-Hellenizing Alexander the Great and the ancient Macedonians from antiquity in order to make them appear more Slavic.
Where is FYRoM's dignity, a new nation wanting to usurp a Greek-Hellenic name for their new country, nationality, language and ethnicity.
Where is FYRoM's dignity...where did it go ?
Where is Slavdoms dignity...watching one of their own badmouth Greeks and denigrate Hellenism.
Where is Slavdoms dignity...standing Idly-by, watching a small SouthSlavic country embarrass Slavdom.
Where is Slavdoms dignity...permitting one of their own, take something good like the classics and convert them into something Vulgar!
Where is Slavdoms dignity...Where did that go ???
Where is Slavdoms Honour....Where did that go ???
FYRoM's SouthSlavs need to ask themselves a very serious question.
Question: Are SouthSlavs really Macedonian ???
No Dignity, No Honour and No Shame...one each, for the Abduls Mehemtins and Gorans, respectively!

Macedonians have always been Greek speaking Hellenic people, every Tom Dick and Harry knows that but apparently, Abdul Mehmetin and Goran do not know that!
Can you see the difference here, every Tom Dick and Harry knows that Macedonians have always been Greek speaking Hellenic people so what happened to Abdul Mehmetin and Goran, why is it they dont know, what is the difference between the two sides ???
The difference ofcourse, is this:
Only Turkics* and Slavics* dispute the Greekness of the ancient Macedonians, they do not recognize the Macedonians Greek-Hellenic Identity...only Abduls Mehmetins and Gorans do this, I mean contest Alexander the Greats Greek-Hellenic credentials, so this begs the question:
Question: What did Tom Dick and Harry learn that Abdul Mehmetin and Goran did not!
Answer: Abdul Mehmetin and Goran learned a different history from the rest of us. Turanid Abduls and Mehmetins teamed up with Slavist Gorans to badmouth Greeks and denigrate Hellenism.
Note: Macedonians have always been Greek speaking Hellenic people, this is what the Abduls, Mehmetins and Gorans of this world need to learn

Macedonia:That Macedonians Have Always Been Greeks.
That FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs are viewed by politicians and diplomats alike as being disenfranchised Serbians and Bulgarians from the old Yugoslavia is not a false statement to make. Global politicians and world diplomats alike, were forced to seek this advice in light of them having to make ethnic-racial, cultural and linguistic judgments regarding "Macedonians" in lieu of the ongoing name dispute between FYRoM and the Hellenic Republic.
The feedback they received, I mean, the specialist advice they were issued is what the Greeks have been saying right from the get-go.Macedonians have always been Geek speaking Hellenic people, this is what historians told them, this is what ethnographers told them, this is what philologists told
them and this is what the UN, EU, USA, NATO and world academia tell them. Macedonians are Greeks,they have always been Greeks, right from the get-go.
That FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs are not Macedonian in the Greek sense of that word is not a false statement to make. It is all but given that No serious politician or world diplomat equates them to those Macedonians who spread the Greek-Hellenic language, knowledge and culture to the farthestmost regions of the ancient world. FYRoM's Macedonian Identity is at best questionable, achieved more through thievery than any real affiliations towards real Macedonia or Macedonians respectively.
That FYRoM achieved it's Macedonian Identity through cultural thievery is not a false statement to make. Wherever one travels in that country, Hellenic themes and synergies prevail, as if to draw ones attention to an Identity more associated with Hellenic than to Slavic heritage

That FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs are now out in the cold, in the wilderness of isolation is not a false statement to make. Global politicians and world diplomats alike, can not be seen to associate, or be in any way sympathetic towards the FYRoM cause for fear of that stigma staining or blemishing their moral conduct.
That FYRoM is given a unique opportunity to make amends is not a false statement to make. FYRoM shall Integrate with the rest of the European family the day it recognizes in No uncertain terms, the Greek-Hellenic Identity of Alexander the Great and the ancient Macedonians from antiquity.
That FYRoM needs to make a compromise is not a false statement to make. The Onus is on FYRoM to do that, I mean, to compromise and chose a proper more suitable name for itself...a name which properly describes the country and it's peoples, a name which does not clash or conflict with neighbouring peoples regional-tribal names, and most Importantly, a name for all of FYRoM's disparate peoples to be proud of...this is what the Greeks want, this is what global politicans expect and this is what the world is waiting for!
That Macedonians have always been Greek speaking Hellenic people is not a false statement to make...every Tom Dick and Harry knows Macedonians have always been Greeks.
