what we did to your people is history and believe me when i say this, nobody cares in this world.
all the same nobody cares about what the turks did to the greeks, the russians did to a number of other people etc etc.
all such stories don t last for long. unfortunately the only people to have been able to turn their past suffering into a public relations tool are the jews who are still crying foul despite the fact that the war ended 60+ years ago, and by doing so they help in creating a whole new bunch of antisemitists.
that s exactly what i m saying though. you are blaming greece for what exactly? ocupation of a land that had possibly as many greeks as macedonians, while turks were the majority? of course they did bring the anatolia greeks in to further hellenize the region. would macedonia have done any differently if it was in greece's shoes?
greece acted on it s best interests and it worked, same way all countries do act on their best interest. after the greek civil war they even saw a chance. the cold war was just starting, and the world was all painted in black and white, and since your people were fighting with the communists,
however wrong it sounds today, greece with the blessings of the usa and the uk did kick your people out.
thing is this can t be changed anymore, and you have to accept that, same way that greeks don t aspire to recapture istanbul or smyrna (well, most don t anyway... nuts are everywhere). instead of dedicating your resources and energy towards hating others, you might as well do help macedonia in improving its current situation.
maybe in the future you ll be given the chance to see your country as you think it should be, but there are more chances to do so if you actually put your efforts into bettering it instead of fighting for what appears to be today a lost cause.
