I BELIEVE THAT WITH OUT THE VARIFICATIONS OF ALL THOSE SCHOLARS SKOPIJE MIGHT HAVE TRIED TO PULL THE WOOL OVER ITS PEOPLES EYES, BUT SINCE THE LETTER OF MR. MILLER AND THE SIGNATURES OF ALL THESE SCHOLARS, HOW CAN THE SKOPIANS HAVE ANY MORE DOUBT? THEY SHOULD BACK OFF AND BE SATISFIED WITH WHAT THEY ARE AND TRY TO MAKE THEIR OWN HISTORY, NOT STEAL GREECES KINGS, AND GREECEES HEROES, AND GREEK HISTORY AND TERITORY . I DO NOT BELIEVE THEY HAVE FEET BIG ENOUGH TO BE ABLE TO FIT THE SHOES OF THE GREEK MACEDONIANS. SO GIVE IT UP AND GET A LIFE

Barack Obama for me is the most charismatic president to be ever elected. He also makes great decisions, for example in the ecomomic stimulus package to counter the effects of recession.

i would have to say that Barack Obama is a thousand times better than George Bush. Barack is also a very charismatic leader.

It despises me to witness such violation of history, where a nation more than 3000 years old, is being harassed by a country with no self-respect and dignity. Macedonia is a region in the Balkans, which has parts in Greece (50%), FYROM (30%), Bulgaria (20%). The nation of FYROM, could gladly use the name “North Macedonia”, or “Slavic Macedonia”. Yet it has no right to steal the history of Hellas. They have no proof, no evidence of anything, and the it’s new generations are brainwashed with propaganda about the truth of this region. This Slavic Nation, has a history. The Slavs came in that region in the 5th century, long after Alexander. Some refuse to admit that they originate from these slavs, yet they use the slavic language. They do not realise that they have no self-respect, by neglecting their true identity, and Greeks keep bringing up evidence to prove the real history of this region, and the reply from FYROM, is similar to the one by Ljupko here. I find it pittiful, and im surprised other countries don’t acknowledge all this, although lately they are starting to open their eyes. FYROM. You don’t know what you are. You don’t know who you are, and you will never learn. I find amusing, the fact that Macedonian is a greek word, that originates from the greek word Μακεδνός (Makednos), which means tall. Yet you use the word Macedonian as your name, and at the same time you refuse any connection to Greece, well heat my words FYROM, no Slav of your kind has ever walked, lived and prospered in the lands you claim to own. You shall never see the Aegean. Never shall you inhabit our proud cities and never shall you step into Greece, without feeling you are a barbarian. So, what we see is a foolish, poor, weak, brain-washed nation that basically tries to steal it’s identity, and refuses to accept it’s own. Anyone from FYROM who would like to reply to this text, please, i would love to hear your side of the story. Yet i expect facts, truths and sources, and not some hill-billy who’s saying stupidities. Yet i do not expect any reply worth reading, so please, prove me wrong. Macedonia is a region. FYROM does not inhabit Macedonia. It inhabits a part of it. Alexander was an ancient Macedon, who spoke greek, worshipped greek gods, united Greece, and spread Hellinism across the world. So either accept the fact that you have no connection to him and our nation, or since you have stolen your name, you might as well adopt the Greek language, the Greek values, the Greek Pride and call yourselves Greeks. To you it would be an honor you would refuse at once. To us it would be a disgrace to see our honored name on the face of some people with no dignity. That is all i have to say. I pitty you FYRO(M). I pitty you.

My dear friend Popadinovski, first of all, I want to let you know that we are proud to be called GREEKS. Secondly, I think you would be proud to be called a Greek too, if you knew the etymon of the word OR maybe this is what you want, is it not? YOU DREAM THAT ONE DAY YOUR CHILDREN OR YOUR GRAND CHILDREN WILL BE CALLED GREEKS.

I, myself, do agree that you take the name Macedonia and that you be called Greeks under two conditions. That you learn Greek and that you make the Greek language the official language of your country.

IF YOU DO NOT DO ALL THESE, HOW CAN YOU READ ABOUT THE HISTORY OF MACEDONIA?

By tha way, your name Popadinovski spelled this way is meaningless. If you want it to mean something do change the first o to an a. PAPADINOVSKI. YOUR GRAND CHILDREN WILL BE PROUD HAVING SUCH A NAME. ….YES, YOU DID GESS RIGHT, IT IS GREEK.

I have met many “Ljupcos” in my life and every time they become the senders of the same message. Zero IQ, No Common Sense, No contact with reality, hence No hope for them!!

Just an endless, boring, monologue detached from any reality which shows everybody the fascist/racist enviroment these “Ljupcos” have been nurtured since their birth.

Not much to expect from a KKK equivalent with a Zero Critical Ability, whose only argumentation in his pathetic life is the chilidsh notions of “My Grandma told me X hence X is true” or ” Me white, You black”

Why should someone even bother to explain to this grand-fool that the vast majority of the world’s Greco-Roman Historical Community is in that list.

Who has ever explained to this fool inflicted with an apparent mental defectiveness that his grand-racist so-called scholars that he, so foolishly believes, are the laughing stock of the World like exactly he is.

Hope Greece slams the door of EU and NATO on their Stupid faces and leave these Racist FYROMian dimwits where they belong. In Isolation!

You are all trying (greeks, serbs and bulgarians) to wash the Macedonian blood of your hands by writing such stupid letters. We in Republic of Macedonia are laughing on you and on this letter. The facts that your scholars are presenting here are pale and rejected by the wast majority of the world scientific family.
Now what you have to do… Everyday till the rest of your lives when you wake up, go to the mirror in the morning and say: We failed in assimilating the Macedonians. Then maybe god will forgive you for the genocide that you all did.

This letter is an extraordinary starting point for practical policy. At the same time, it expresses a broad-camp consensus in the international academia regarding the divergence between Ancient Macedonia and modern-day Slavs of Povardarje. I translated the text in FYROMian language [ http://vardaraxios.wordpress.com/2009/05/21/pismo-na-svetski-akademici-do-barak-obama-protiv-psevdomakedonizmot/ ] and placed it on dozen of most frequented FYROMian forums. In most cases, the answers contained a certain disillusionment, certain realization that the Pseudomacedonism is a fallacy, a bankrupt ideology for internal consumption, without value within scholarly institutions. As you may realize, this was not reported on FYROMian media.
