    Does the head look slightly disproportionately large?

            They can write "Macedonian" in Greece but refuse to do so in Macedonia.

              That statue of Philip looks like the one that is in Solun
              You want Macedonia? Come and take it from my blood!

              A prosperous, independent and free Macedonia for Macedonians will be the ultimate revenge to our enemies.

                Both the "Macedonian" and Greek Government statue-erecting projects seem to complement each other. The Greeks claim these historical figures as part of their GREEK cultural/historical heritage, while the Ramkovist "Macedonians" claim it as part of the regional heritage, which could be easily interpreted as Greek. In fact, when all of our neighbours interpret it as Greek and the Ramkovist "Macedonians" call it a "regional" heritage, it all fits in quite well.

                  Statues of Phillip and Alexander in Athens.......the irony of it all! The real Athenians must be turning in their graves.

                    It's like us putting statues of Albanian terrorists in our capital and at the same time being proud of it. I don't think these modern greeks have any brain roots with their ancestors.

                        Well, DPNE allowed something along those lines to take place in Tetovo or somewhere around there, didn't they? Both pathetic with different yet equally pathetic motives.

                          don't compromise on the statue by substitutimg it for a lion just because you offend the greeks.

                            The Macedonians originates it, the Bulgarians imitate it and the Greeks exploit it!

                              The Macedonians have done one better. They have a museum for the NLA.
