It is imperative that Greece withdraws from negotiations immediately.
The
Macedonian Affair is becoming a load that threatens to plunge humanity
into a new and unprecedented atrociousness and there will be hell for
humanity to pay. From the instance some powerful notables decided – for
reasons of political expediency – to ignore the science of history,
they actually opened the sack of Aeolus, unaware of the consequences
they would be called to deal with in the immediate future.
In
such occasion, we consider it certain that the problem will come back
to haunt them. They will be called to deal with it anew because it is
certain that it will not go away once their needs are satisfied but it
will remain and sweep everything, threatening with destruction. Once
they have decided – for reasons other than historic or scientific need –
to virtually give away the Macedonian identity to a group of people who
do not satisfy the necessary conditions, it is certain that they have crossed the Rubicon
into a dangerous area that has no return. Once you cross this Rubicon,
the world around you will never be the same again.
What
do all these mean in essence? The name of Macedonia is not a matter for
the Greeks so the Skopjans should not negotiate with them. It is no
longer a matter for the Greeks. It is a matter for the global community.
Since there has never been a Macedonian State System in force or a
living Macedonian nation – which would be the descendant of the ancient Macedonians, hence its lawful successor – the concept of Macedonia is
dealt as a product of intellect. It is dealt as a product developed by
specific people and which stands out from the rest of its kindred
products due to its particularities.
A
human socio-political system is a collective product of intellect and
it is dealt as such by the science of history. It is a product marked by
its particularities in relation to justice, history, origin, language
and tradition. It is marked by any attribute that can make a social
model discrete throughout human history. The Macedonian product does not
differ from the respective product of Mongols, Mayas or Incas. They are
all systems which once existed but no longer do.
The
fact that all these systems do
not exist anymore does not mean that they are an available prey to whoever is mischievous enough to make do with it. Just like Genghis Khan will always be Mongolian whether Mongolia actually exists or not, Alexander the Great will always be Macedonian, whether Macedonia exists or not. Claiming the heritage of these systems should be forbidden, whether there are living descendants of them or not. The Greeks should not worry about Macedonia being seized by their new geographical mates in the area of Macedonia. They should not worry just like the weak descendants of the Comanche tribe do not worry that their new mates, namely the Texans, will want to plunder them as they are powerful notables of the USA and the United Nations.

They should not worry just like the weak descendants of the Comanche tribe do not worry that their new mates, namely the Texans, will want to plunder them as they are powerful notables of the USA and the United Nations.
We
can all understand that all these cultural products are not under
threat whether they have living descendants or not. They are not under
threat by any person, no matter how powerful that person is. Why is
that? It is because their cultural products are now protected as being a
global heritage. They are protected as being an accomplished historic
fact which does not evolve anymore, therefore it is unchangeable. Proof
of their existence rests safely on historic studies and scientific
books. Their history, language and tradition have been codified once and
now fall within the sphere of competence of the League of Nations
–UNESCO specifically – which is responsible for protecting them from
falsifiers and liars. They fall within the sphere of competence of the
scientific community, not diplomatic field.
This
is really important because science has nothing in common with
diplomacy. The identity, origin and quality of these products is decided
on the basis of science’s objectivity, not politics’ subjectivity. This
is the reason we maintain that the Macedonia name dispute is not a
matter for the Greeks. It is not a bilateral issue between Greece and
the state of Skopje. It is an issue of international legality. It is
just that Greece is directly involved in it so it is morally obligated
to react faster than others. This does not mean, though, that the
responsibility lies heavier on its shoulders. Greece is obligated to
react, but it should do it through science, not diplomatic bargaining.
It is unacceptable for Greece to engage into such bargains. Even if Greece – for reasons of good neighbourly relations – wanted
to give away part of its heritage to a third party, it would not have
been able to do so. Greece cannot give away or sell anything to anybody
even if it is considered to be a legitimate heir. You cannot give away
Macedonia to the residents of the geographical area of Macedonia who
have Bulgarian roots. You cannot sell Minoan Crete to Jews even if they
could afford it. Why? Because nobody can give away or sell historic
truth at will.
You
cannot sell or give away a cultural product just like you cannot sell
or give away a medal of excellence to an athlete. You cannot give
someone the attribute of an Olympic Champion even though you can give or
sell the meaningless material part, namely the medal. A medal can pass
hands, but the distinction cannot. Distinction is personal, it is your
personal accomplishment and it cannot be transferred because it actually
belongs to a bigger community, which means that it goes beyond the
concept of plain property.
It
has been centuries since the concept of Macedonia does not belong to
the Greeks. It does not belong to them in the sense that they are not
obligated to protect it. Macedonia is a Greek product but it belongs to
humanity. It might be the brightest medal there can ever be for a great
Greek spiritual athlete; it cannot just become a field for the Slavic
farmer to plough. It belongs to human history and it is treasured by
human science. If the famous Macedonia is part of human history and we
need to text it to space we will not attach a picture of Gruevski. We
will only send what time has sealed to pertain to the concept of
Macedonia. Consequently, its protection falls within the sphere of
competence of humanity, not the Greeks.
Things
are simple. It is humanity’s duty to protect Macedonia if it is to
protect itself. It is obligated to protect the historic truth concerning
its past in order to safeguard its future course. This truth will
ensure that its members’ efforts and achievements were not in vain. If
humanity fails to do so, havoc will follow. If it fails to do so, it
will follow a self-destructive path with dangerous repercussions. Global
community cannot survive even a few hours if thieves and falsifiers of
history act uncontrollably. Humanity, which can survive even nuclear
explosions, cannot survive such plundering which deprogram it and drive
it to absolute tumult.
It
is not necessary for Greece to take it to court over the name of
Macedonia. It is not necessary for Greece to rush into things just like
it is not necessary for the Dutch to hasten to protect Vincent Van
Gogh’s art from usurpers of art, for the British to protect Fleming’s
patent rights for the discovery of penicillin, for the Chinese to prove
that the Great Wall of China is their own construction. It is the
science of history that decides on the course of matters pertaining to
its scope of interest, not unsolicited mediators like Matthew Nimitz,
special UN envoy on the Skopje issue, who uses pressures and blackmails.
Humanity cannot continue its course if it does not have this kind of
protection. People do not have a motive – neither do nations – to create
if there is nobody who can protect their intellectual rights and
posthumous fame.
We
are a privileged society; we are not a jungle where everybody takes
whatever he wants without being answerable to anybody for his actions.
We are a vehicle of culture and we are its exponents; we do not behave
like members of a carnival group who wear anything we take a shine to
when it suits our interests. It is incomprehensible that the same thing
which is forbidden even in the most primitive or backward community is
not forbidden in the international community. International community is
organized and perfectly lined-up. It is not a dive where anybody can do
whatever he wants. It is just not possible that anyone can put a
feather on his head and claim to be the descendant of the Apache tribe.
Everything has been recorded and evaluated.
Just
like false impersonation is forbidden on the basic level of society –
which concerns its members – it is also forbidden on a higher level –
which concerns the States. Things cannot be done differently because
society cannot function otherwise. There may not be a way to prevent
people from claiming the rights of an intellectual product but it is
incomprehensible that these rights are not at least protected somehow.
It is incomprehensible that there is no way to protect all those
industrious intellectual creators from lazy usurpers. It is
incomprehensible that time and space, in a world that refuses to change,
do not have distinct neat lines to protect those who travel through
time.
The
fact that some people were born in the geographical area that goes by
the name Macedonia does not automatically make them Macedonians. The
term Macedonian is a strictly defined term. It may be related,
location-wise, to a set geographical area but it is confined by specific
time limits. Only the people who lived in the physical area of
Macedonia during the period from x to z are Macedonians; nobody else.
Things are simple. If one of these days we discover the cave where Jesus
Christs was born, we should not be concerned that the gypsies will
descend upon the cave and give birth to children which they will call
natural relatives of His.
All these limits, which are defined by scientific, thus safe criteria, fall within the scope of UNESCO. UNESCO is the United
Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization. There is no
logic in UNESCO being firm and uncompromising in protecting old
buildings and monuments but laxer when it comes to cultural heritage of
much greater significance. How is it possible that we will allow common
benighted thieves to steal a huge cultural load
like Macedonia? How is it possible that a gang of drug dealers and gun
smugglers governing the Skopje can threaten the world order in terms of
cultural values?
What
do we speak of in this text? The Greek people do not need to worry and
rush to take matters into court. Macedonia is Greek but it belongs to
humanity and it should be the latter’s duty to protect it from
falsifiers of history. The Greeks should not be concerned, just like any
citizen who is a victim of a clear case of false impersonation is not
concerned. Situations like this one are the reason we have Attorney
Generals and in the case of cultural crimes UNESCO is the competent
body. So, according to reason, UNESCO should intervene by virtue of its
own office and stop not only the cultural seizing and plundering but
also any kind of cultural bargaining among nations who have no respect to scientific logic.
Why
doesn’t UNESCO intervene, though, in our days? Isn’t it strange? UNESCO
intervenes in matters such as whether a tiny part of a monument which
is a testimony of a civilization will be changed or not and it does not
intervene in cases like Macedonia where an exploitation of an entire
civilization takes place. What is worse, it does not intervene in a
matter that concerns the Greek civilization, a symbol of which is also
on its official flag. We are stunned by UNESCO’s leadership. UNESCO
should be acting based on mere scientific criteria –
and as the competent international organization that it is – instead of
allowing Greek and Skopjan politicians to engage into distressing
bargaining.
This
is illegal because it is as if the police do not intervene to stop
transactions among antiquity smugglers. Not only do they not intervene
but in reality they turn a blind eye when a crime is committed. If
someone looks into the matter, he will easily make sense out of the
situation. The questions here are what this search involves and which is
the leadership of UNESCO, hence the people who give this kind of form
to this international organization. Coincidentally, the Director-General
of UNESCO is not only neutral but also a part of the problem. Why is
that? It is because the Director-General is Irina Bokova, who is a
Bulgarian national, originating in the geographical area of Macedonia
and an ex-communist.
This
means that she is a compatriot, corregionale as well as a co-ideologist
of the convert Stalinist Bulgarians who have recently discovered that
they are Macedonians. It is exactly the same situation as with Gruevski
and his gang. This gives rise to concern, though. How and on the basis
of which criteria has an insignificant woman been chosen to be the
Director-General of such an important international organization
especially when this woman has no scientific expertise and comes from a
historically insignificant country which is remotely interested in
protecting the cultural interests of other countries? Shouldn’t this
trouble us?
Inconceivable
things happen. The only person who – as an individual – carries an
identity that implicates her in a dubious situation has been chosen to
be the Director-General of the lead international organization for the
protection of cultural heritage, in a planet with a huge cultural
heritage of living and all-powerful nations. Instead of assigning a
Chinese, an Egyptian, a Japanese or an Indian to the position – namely
people who would have reasons to protect civilizations from actions of
filching by usurpers – they
assigned a Bulgarian woman who has absolutely nothing to protect. She
is a Bulgarian woman who lacks even the basic scientific training on the
subject matter. A woman, who has studied International Relations as
once perceived by the Soviet Moscow, has been assigned to be the head of
an organization which specializes in history – and is staffed with
historians.
Why
have they assigned a Stalinist person to a key position in the
organization although Democracy has prevailed in the global political
environment? Why have they assigned the position of the Director-General
to a fascist who pretends to be the guardian of civilizations, freedom
and Democracy when the international environment has condemned Stalinism
as the greatest crime against humanity? Couldn’t they find one person,
among billions of people who have believed in Democracy – and have been
justified in their belief and their struggles –qualified for this
position, so they had no other choice but to give it to the person who
upholds the Stalin model of society?
She
is an avid Stalin supporter, born and raised on the Stalinist ideology.
She was not just some naive young girl who fell victim to Stalinism.
She was born and raised on the Stalinist ideology since her father was
the publisher and director of the official Stalinist instrument of the
Communist party in Bulgaria. She is a genuine Stalinist because she was
brought up in Mother Moscow. She is an avowed Stalinist because she had
been a Member of the Bulgarian Parliament for the Communist Party before
her appointment in UNESCO. She is an ardent supporter of an ideology
which was known – among all other detestable attributes – to hate the
Greek nation.
It
is known that throughout the centuries – and among all other nations –
the Stalinist Communists were the only ones to have dared to call
Alexander a nations’ slaughterer. He has been called this way by
supporters of the Jewish Marx and the chosen ones in the Soviet
Politburo who are of Jewish origin. He has been called this way by
people who were considered guilty for the deaths of thousands of
millions of people during piece time. Stalin and Mao Zedong alone are
responsible for the deaths of a hundred of millions of people. They have
appointed an ardent supporter of those civilizateurs to the position of
the Director-General of the UNESCO Foundation whose function is to
protect the supreme global product and which specializes in protecting
the cultural heritage of humanity.
Still,
are these her only duties? Was she chosen randomly or does she have
additional qualifications due to which she would be the perfect person
to carry out the mission they were going to assign to her? Let’s stop
and think about it. She is the daughter of a newspaper editor-in-chief
in a Stalinist State. Although she is the daughter of a Stalinist, not
only was her life not ruined as being the eminent descendant of a
fascist regime but also she was given a leg up through
mechanisms of the now democratic state and ended up having an
international career. On the one hand, there are Bulgarian democrats who
starve, living in an extremely poor country and on the other hand there
is the descendant of a failed Stalinism who lives in luxury in the name
of Democracy. She should be mopping stairs to survive; instead she
finds herself living like a duchess in Paris.
Does
this sound normal to you? There is a Stalinist woman who, by the grace
of democracy, leads a life of a bourgeois Director-General in an
international organization at the expense of the poor suckers of
Bulgaria. Isn’t it strange that a divorced with two children Bulgarian
woman whose father was an official of a collapsed system is so
successful? There are very specific people who can perform the miracle
of this kind a woman been geared to such a key position. What if she –
among other things – is a Jew? What if she is a fellow
“countrywoman” of Nimitz, Madeleine Olbright and the deceased
Holbrooke, all of who are anxious about the outcome of the Macedonian
Affairs? What if we expect her to intervene by virtue of her own office
in favor of Macedonia but in reality she is a Jew Stalinist who pretends
to be a Bulgarian?
The
reader can understand that some things do not add up. Let’s try and
think of how different UNESCOS’ position on the Macedonian Affair would
be if the General-Director was Japanese, Indian or Egyptian historic
scientist. We can understand, therefore, that many things are dubious in
the case of Irina Bokova. Things were intended to come to this. They
were intended and the goal is to lure Greece into making a mistake. This
is the point at issue. If Greece does not sign, there can be no
Macedonia. Greece is the sole legitimizing factor. If Greece does not
sign, none of the hundred or more recognitions of the State of Skopje
under the name of Macedonia will be legit.
If
Greece considers Vardarska to constitute the State of Skopje, this
belief will gradually become a given fact for the rest of the world. The
only proof of someone’s historic existence are the words of the people
who actually saw him alive, not the people who learn the news by
politically charged newspapers, no matter how many these people are. The
Greeks are the only people who can prove the existence of Macedonians
and who can recognize someone as being a legit Macedonian. If the Greeks
consider their neighbors to be people of Bulgarian roots living in
Vardarska, then they consider them to be Vardarians since they deny
their natural roots.
Things
are simple. The Greeks did not invent the term Vardarska with the
purpose to arbitrarily give a name to the Bulgarians. The latter
invented it themselves because at some point they realized that it was
not in their interest as Bulgarians to consider their homeland a part of
the historic Macedonia. For decades they had considered themselves to
be Bulgarians, residing in an area to which they had given that
Bulgarian geographical name. It was the time when the Stalinists of
Moscow governed them and they falsified the science of Geography. Later
on, the government changed and there was a new mission. The same people
abandoned their Bulgarian origins and remembered the official geography.
They alone decided to abandon their national origins and the Greeks did
not question it.
Now,
because their new governors are supporters of the New Order, they want
to falsify the science of history as well. The moment they denied their
national origins they decided they wanted to be characterized on the
basis of the same geographical term they had once falsified.
Unfortunately for them, the only term left for them to use is their own
geographical term. They had imposed that term and now they have to live
with it. They do not have a choice and this is something that all
mischievous people know; everyone but the Greeks. They can either be
considered Bulgarians of Macedonia or Vardarians of Vardarska.
It
is easy to prove that this assertion holds. If the imperialists and
rapists of human history did not need Greece they would not be bothered
with negotiations. If the Germans or the Vatican could go ahead with the
recognition and circumvent the Greeks they would have done it since day
one. Besides, they did not use to ask for permission when it was a
matter of interests. The fact that they ask for Greece’s permission
today means that they actually need it and this is something that Greece
itself must realize. Greece is a spiritual superpower in this world and
this is the reason they need it to sign the recognition.
This
is something that Greece itself must realize and rise above the
situation. It needs to act in a civilized manner once again. This time,
though, it will not act as a producer of culture but as a guardian of a
cultural good. It needs to behave the same way it would behave against a
usurper who in his effort to claim something that does not belong to
him would drag it into unlawful acts and complicity. So, Greece should
denounce this criminal attempt of falsifying historic facts and withdraw
from negotiations. It has to reason to negotiate with benighted brutes
like Gruevski or Nimitz. It has no right to negotiate something that has
been decided on by history and the past.
All
Greece has got to do is refer the Skopjans to UNESCO; force UNESCO to
take a stand on the Macedonian Affair; force the scientific staff of
this international organization to finally get exposed and pronounce on
the matter of the Macedonian civilization as well as the origin of the
Macedonians. We refer to the origin of people who led the effort for the
realization of the Greek aspirations; the origin of people named
Philippos, Alexandros, Hephaestion or Olympiada. Greece has to force
UNESCO to pronounce on those people’s contribution and collective
orientation; pronounce on the matter based on criteria accepted by the
science of history, not on political cheap bargaining.
If
UNESCO decides that Gruevski is a Macedonian, there will be huge
reaction from Greece. Until then, Greece has no reason to take action.
It has no reason to engage in negotiations and help legalize the
desecrators of history. Whoever wants to cross the Rubicon of logic,
science and truth, he should do it himself. Greece has no reason to
cross it; neither does it have any reason to make an issue of it.
Whoever wants to cross it, he should be ready to shoulder his
responsibility.
Greece,
as a nation, can follow a line forever and never recognize FYROM as
Macedonia. Whichever nation desires to go ahead with this – being ready
of course to deal with the consequences – it can. Greece can shift
responsibility to those who dared to recognize FYROM as Macedonia and
answer them back. It should let these ignorants suffer the consequences
of their actions. It should insult them in a way a nobleman of a
civilized nation does, namely with humor. It should humiliate them by
making a parody of cultural events and tributes.
The
Dutch had better know that Greece is going to help and support any
future usurper presents the exhibitions of Flemish painters as
exhibitions of Skopjan or Algerian art. The British had better get ready
to witness Greece staging Hamlet
directed by the great Dimitar Gotsev. The Germans had better forget
about the Institute of Goethe since it is known that Goethe is only a
pseudo name for the famous Natzo Golev. Whoever opens the door to a nuthouse should be aware that he will enter it as well, whether he likes it or not.
Things
are simple. The Macedonian Greeks should build a Pagoda in the city of
Florina and expect UNESCO to recognize it as a monument of a global
cultural heritage. They should expect UNESCO to recognize the parentage and
of course the continuation of the Japanese culture. They should expect
UNESCO to recognize Florina as a genuine cradle of Japanese culture, at
the expense of the city of Nara. Namely, the Greeks should do what the
Skopjans did to the Macedonian civilization and Alexander’s statue whose
name they cannot even pronounce, let alone understand, for the simple
reason that it is in a foreign to them language. The Greeks should have
the Pagoda of Florina built in the same geographical area as the Skopjan
Equestrian Alexander statue; that will make them the laugh of the
world.
This
is what the Greeks should do for as long as the Skopjans insist on
acting the giddy goat. The responsibility for scientific documentation
must be assumed by those competent on the matter and not be shifted back
and forth in the coffee shops of Northern Greece. If an international
organization does not want to protect itself from being disputed, it has
no reason to continue existing. If an international organization does
not respect its role, it has no reason to exist. If nations resort to
guns and mass demonstrations to protect their history, there is no point
in such organizations existing.
We
do not only refer to UNESCO but to the International Court of Justice
as well. Were we surprised to learn that a useless Japanese judge dared
accept to try a plea of abatement filed by people who signed it as
“Democracy of Macedonia”? Is he acquainted with many Macedonians
himself? If a Supreme Judge lacks the education and culture and cannot
recognize when instances of looting and pillaging of the historical
truth and human civilization take place, then he should not hold the
position of a Judge in the International Court of Justice. Especially if
that person is Japanese, he has no place in the streets of his own
country either, because he is a person who is a member of one of the
most historic nations in the planet and has thousands of reasons to
respect and of course uphold the historic truth.
It
could be the case that he is not real Japanese from Japan. He could be
Yapanese from Yapan as the known sociologist Giorgos Papandreou would
say; the Yapan which is part of the new way of global governing which
prefers that the Samurai carry clarinets and other wind instruments
instead of katanas; the Yapan which prefers the Samurai to be a tribe of
Roman-Gypsy musicians who got dressed once for the Carnival and since
then take delight in dressing up all year round.
As
we can understand, strange things happen once you cross the Rubicon of
the historic truth. You see strange things as if you have swallowed LSD
pills. Even Gruevski looks like an Olympian God who drives his bat
mobile and launches spider webs as if he were the Spiderman. And all
that take place over the Pagoda in Florina, let us not forget.
Is there such a thing as a Macedonian Language?
Languages
are also within the scope of UNESCO, since any human language is part
of the universal heritage. If UNESCO carried out even its basic duties,
we would not even have to speak today of a Macedonian Language. The
Director-General of the organization herself could take the initiative
and decide on the Macedonian characteristics of the Skopjan language.
Why are we so sure of this? It is because she is a Bulgarian and she can
tell us whether or not she understands the language of the convert
Macedonians. Does she understand it or not? Does she understand it as if
it were her mother tongue, although her mother tongue is Bulgarian? If
that is the case, there are two possibilities. Either she is a
phenomenon because she can magically understand an unknown language or
the language the Skopjans speak is Bulgarian.
Whether
UNESCO pronounces on the matter or not is not important, though.
Humanity is not a free-for-all in need of people like Irina Bokova. Just
like someone cannot exploit Fleming’s death and claim that penicillin
is a new conception of his, a nation cannot recognize its language by
the name it suits it. Human languages, the ones that have existed on
this planet, are recorded almost in their entirety. There is the science
of languages which has studied them and there are international
organizations that certify them.
So,
if a person who has conveniently discovered recently that he is a
Macedonian has a hard time proving it, he will have a thousand times
bigger difficulty to prove that the language he speaks is Macedonian.
Why? Because the languages that have been recorded by competent
international organizations are all the languages that have existed in
this world, whether active or not, whether there are people who still
speak them or not. This means that, if there had been a Balkan
population who spoke a separate Macedonian language, the latter would
have been recorded.
Since
there is no such record but there is a new report regarding the
appearance of a new language, the latter should be analyzed
scientifically since it appears as a new one. It should be analyzes in
terms of grammar, vocabulary, similarities with other languages, e.t.c.
In other words, the language which the Skopjans speak and consider being
Macedonian should be analyzed as a new discovery from the start. The
Skopjans should go through all the required proceedings in order to
certify their language; in order to include it in the official languages
of the United Nations and their translating departments of course.
In such occasion,
the course is predetermined and it does not cross Athens. It is
completely irrelevant and indifferent what Athens believes or accepts
about this language. It is not Athens’s role to pronounce on languages
of its neighboring countries. Whoever claims to have discovered a new
language and wants to certify it, he applies to the competent
instruments. They will certify everything that has to do with this
language.
So,
it is not the politicians who will pronounce on the Macedonian features
of the Skopjan language. There will be no bargaining among crooks. Dora
Bakoyiannis, George Papandreou and Gruevski will not be the ones to
make the decisions under the supervision of Nimitz. The language will
not enter the subjective and short-lived sphere of politics. The study
of languages falls within
the scope of science and everything that relates to them should ensure
the objectivity and perpetuity that characterizes any scientifically
established fact. Therefore, linguists should be the ones to pronounce
on languages as well as international services which certify translators
to work in their bodies.
No
linguist would ever officially recognize that there is a Macedonian
language spoken in the State of Skopje. The Skopjan language cannot even
be considered a special Bulgarian dialect. It is a pure Bulgarian
language. It is the language that was brought to the Southern Balkans by
the Slavs, centuries after Alexander’s passage. Alexander and Macedonia
have already been ancient history with given historical facts and
accepted us such even by the first Slavs to appear in the geographical
area of Macedonia.
The
Greek State must once and for all close doors to all those crooks and
falsifiers of human history. It should never participate to any
negotiations. It should refer them to the competent international
bodies. Whoever wants to be exposed should do it through its role as a
competent authority. After that, we will decide on how to deal with the
situation. Let all the professional historians of UNESCO decide on
Macedonia and Macedonian issues pertaining to the Skopjans and then we
will decide on our course of action against perjuring scientists. Let
the professional linguists of UNESCO decide on the Macedonian attributes
of the Skopjan language and then we will decide on our course of action
against perjuring scientists.
The
Greek State and the Greek nation have no business fighting with the
Skopjans. Scientific issues are not games and nations cannot defend them
by demonstrating in streets and squares. Nobody can facilitate
decisions on scientific issues by turning states into fighting arenas
full of fanatics. Scientific issues are resolved by scientists through
arguments and facts. So, a nation can fight against an international
organization which falls into error until it receives justice.
These
are simple things that have nothing to do with political subjectivity.
We can denounce and prove with objective criteria that a scientist is
incompetent – and he will suffer the legal and penal consequences. The
subjective opinion of nations is not taken into consideration in matters
of science, neither are their wishes and desires. Only facts and
evidence are taken into consideration and a scientist’s competence is
proven by his ability to assess them. On the next level,
there are scientific associations which are competent to make a
decision and punish all worthless scientists. I dare anyone to override
scientific truth and issue fake certificates of authenticity.
No
scientist is willing to sign so-called scientifically established facts
that will expose him for ever in the scientific community and this is
the reason the mischievous ones want Greece to assume responsibility.
They want Greece to assume responsibility and condemn Macedonia to
death. This is the reason they insist vividly on the negotiations; they
want the best of both worlds. On the one hand, they want to secure that
their international organizations are recognized as having authority and
scientific expertise and they want to relieve them of the burden of
judgments, but on the other hand they want to collect the political
gains from falsifying history.
They
want to take for free and through politics – at the expense of Greece –
something they would have to pay a lot to get through science and would
have the power to destroy them all. They want to take the term
Macedonia from Greece – which they consider to be a nation of idiots
that gives away its heritage – bringing
about the least possible consequences and acting from a secure position
instead of taking risks like the ones taken by people who engage in
plundering and open doors to chaos. They want to use to their advantage
the fact that there are corrupt members in the Greek leadership and have
Greece sustain the damage and pay for it as well
The
next time one some con man and member of the international imperialism
visits Greece, the Greek government should not even begin discussing. It
should declare itself incompetent and refer them to UNESCO on the
proviso that the latter will take a stand after its final decision.
Until this happens, the Greek government can just tell them: “We have
given everything there was to give.” Besides, we have work to do in
Pagoda, Florina. We are working on an art exhibition with paintings by
the Algerian Van Gogh, while the Ninth Symphony of the Hindu Raznti is
heard in the background. A wind instruments band of the Samurai from
Bucharest will open the festivities.
