Fascist Bulgaria's occupation of Macedonia during World War II

[Momce Makedonce]

Speaking of Pirin, feel free to visit Kustendil, Goce Delchev or Blagoevgrad and ask the citizens how do they feel, are they feeling Macedonian or Bulgarian. Youll get a clear answer. Claiming human rights issues in pirin area is a pure nonce. “It took pirin that it doesn’t belong” is a bit rough. Country boundaries are carved over the years, whether we like it or not, this is the reality. You would better turnaround from Pirin and concentrate on Kumanovo and Tetovo, cause east borders won’t change, but it is not clear about west.

Here is the proof that Macedonians exist in Pirin. Listen to the songs they dance to and what they say they are...

The Bulgarian is funny. My grandmother had to fend for herself after my grandfather was forced to serve the Bulgarian army in sofija. Why don't you think before you post your propaganda.

I was forced as well to serve for a year and a half in the Bulgarian army, my family didn’t like it either.

[GeorgiDimitrov]

sO GD in your opinion Bulgaria is not the Problem.I thought it was the problem .Look at its stance on pirin etc & bulgarian propaganda.I would say bulgaria still harbors irrendist behaviour.It took pirin that it doesn't belong. to bulgaria.It now tries to hide its tracks by being friendly??Yes we do have a problem in pirin people aren't free to enjoy basic human rights.AS long as you desire more of macedonia we have a problem GD.

This is the history written by the Serbain post WW2 propaganda.

I am going to afford you an opportunity to elaborate on what exactly in that article is Serbian WW2 propaganda - and to back it up. You have one chance. Make the most of it.

Now what I do not understand is where this hatred is coming from and why?

Bulgaria (and by extension most Bulgars) doesn't recognise the existence of the Macedonian ethnic group. If you can't understand that, you're either completely stupid or have been living in a cave all of your life.

Bulgaria have had many enemies during it’s history ( and Macedonia is not on the list !)

Bulgaria has been an enemy of Macedonia for a long time. It has occasionally behaved like a friend, when convenient.

You have your new country and you have managed to get in to fight with all neighbors already (apart from SRB).

Our country isn't new, only its independence is. And we have disagreements with Serbia also, such as the church issue. So you've no need to worry, when they need to they act just as idiotic as your kind do.

Put your efforts into building a more stable multiethnic society in Macedonia instead…

Why don't you put your efforts into building a multiethnic Bulgaria and let Macedonians worry about Macedonia.

[Risto the Great]

Now go and ask your father or grandfather how he felt about Bulgaria back in time.

They thought the Bulgarians would help them. But soon found out they were as useless as the rest of them. That is what the Macedonians thought about the Bulgarians. Do you doubt it?

[Momce Makedonce]

Now what I do not understand is where this hatred is coming from and why? Bulgaria have had many enemies during it’s history ( and Macedonia is not on the list !) , but this is just a history and it is in the past. Nowadays we do trade and have good relations with Turkey, for example.
Why is this new propaganda against Bulgaria today? You have your new country and you have managed to get in to fight with all neighbors already (apart from SRB).
Another thing that I do not understand is why do you get this way, instead of concentration into the real problem you have, which is inside your country. Put your efforts into building a more stable multiethnic society in Macedonia instead…

When will the Macedonians in Bulgaria ( Pirin Macedonia ) get their rights? When will you admit what you did to the Macedonian Jews in WW2? When will you admit that Pirin was given to you in 1913 and was always Macedonian beforehand? When will you realise that Goce Delcev, Dame Gruev, Sandanski e.t.c were Macedonians who fought for Macedonia? When will you apologize for manipulating history and causing grief upon our people?

When all this happens we might start talking about friendly relations...

Debate in the U.S. for the treatment of Jews from Bulgaria

Have a read of the article in full, it is translated from google. It is interesting to note what Darko thinks of the Bulgarians, I have highlighted it in red.

Debate in the U.S. for the treatment of Jews from Bulgaria
Darko Mitrevski: Come in and both the other and the third, let him sue Washington!

Upon the request of the Bulgarian Embassy in Washington a little squares in the city to be named after Dimitar Peshev, Bulgarian credited for saving the Bulgarian Jews from deportation, and after the Holocaust Museum in Washington as a counter-pointed the deportation of 11,000 Jews from Bulgaria, that was exactly the theme of the discredited Macedonian film "Third Half" by the Bulgarians, for this talk to the director and screenwriter of the film, Darko Mitrevski.

Bulgaria received a slap from Washington precisely the topic that you fiercely attacking you for "Third Half" - is not disputed rescue of Bulgarian Jews from the concentration camps, but it is arguable that we Bulgarians, allies of Hitler, sent 11,343 Jews from Macedonia and northern Greece Nazi camps. This looks like some sort of satisfaction for you?

When six months ago I was asked what I like about this battle, I replied, with ten goals difference. Not because I am a very gifted football, but because it is spoken is one hundred percent true, which can be checked in all the museums, historical institutes and universities in this white world (except in Bulgaria!), And that my political opponents speak a hundred percent lie. Bulgarian MEPs threatened with lawsuits in Strasbourg for the film "The Third Half" Bulgarian government tried to obstruct Macedonia's integration into the European Union - and remember that some "Macedonian intellectuals" just in me found guilty of failing to "Macedonian EU integration "(whatever that means). Well here, Come and both the other and the third, let him sue Washington! If they punch, of course.

But there is another - at least for me - stunning work: a couple exceptions, Macedonia lacked any public debate or response to these attacks. Not heard a voice from historians, journalists, politicians (whether government or opposition), writers, artists, university professors, public figures, the Jewish community, the church, the academy ... There was something unheard of: a local art to be branded a ( follow me) nerdy, fashizoidna, anti-Semitic and anti-Macedonian policy - and nobody in Macedonia it does not affect. Year and a half through the movie spit homeland, and in no country do not feel threatened, nor invited to respond. Somehow it was treated as a private dispute between me and the Bulgarian state.

Well, with this I got this dispute. The laurels are just mine, you're zachinam stuffed them in Delight will have you eating in my garden in Los Angeles.

The Bulgarian historians and politicians were easy to trumpet all the bells of America to the European Union that "Third Half" falsifies history, it was "Hitler film", "provocation of the Macedonian government", "film about hatred towards Bulgarians'" another forgery which builds on the Macedonian identity ". Now that you got such a strong ally of the subject, as I will explain Bulgarian protests against the film its pointless and lobbies that are not funded, not showing ...

First of all, let's not use the term "Bulgaria". I have nothing against Bulgaria, which I think we share a common history - in a way that common history shared by Germany and Austria (and still no normal in Berlin, Hamburg or Munich would not dare to deny the existence of the Austrian nation!). Bulgaria is a country in whose home turf, at the initiative of the Bulgarian Church and Bulgarian intellectuals were rescued nearly 50,000 Jews at the hands of pro-Nazi King Boris III and his puppet gang: Release Philota, Gabrovo Minister and Commissioner Belev (one and all declared fascist and anti-Semite ). No I biev battle against Bulgaria and the Bulgarian people. In fact, any battle I have no intention Arabia against anybody - but when I attacked the ideological descendants of Bogdan Philota, I just defended his work, something that every director would do.

And as far as lobbying for prohibition, "Third Half" in Macedonia saw 90,000 spectators, was shown around the United States, signed a contract for regular kinodistribucija in France, Germany, Australia, Canada, China, South Korea and Japan, Spring will welcome the universities of Oxford, Zagreb, Munich, Moscow ... To where you touch the power of lobbying as I felt not even for a second? Probably the border in Kyustendil.

Then Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borisov, among other things, that directly attack you do "Hitler film" for Bulgarians. "Bulgaria has never had a swastika flag. We never mix. On the contrary, the first to recognize Macedonia, worked to abolish visas for you, help you and now we say - with hitlerski film, "he said and then ended with celebration" For we found that topic? ". What I'd ordered at the moment?

Before you answer, please note that Boris is currently no longer prime minister of Bulgaria - Bulgarian citizen but ordinary, as I am a citizen of Macedonia and the United States. So, my response was not addressed to the national institution representing the former badigard of Todor Zhivkov, but to him personally.

Like this:

Boyko, do you have Internet at home?

If you have, you naminuvash on YouTube?

If naminuvash, if you watched the interview NETA Cohen, the woman whose life story was filmed movie "The Third Half", given to Spielberg's Shoah Foundation-?

In this interview NETA clearly says that her family - her father, barely adult brothers, sister six years, cousins, cousins, strikovcite, aunts, all her blood relatives - one and all in the gas chambers of Treblinka had sent the Bulgarian army and police .

Boyko, talking about women in a single day you lost your entire lineage, all their loved ones, everything she had - at the hands of people who wore uniforms of the state you govern! And not just one woman, but the whole nation.

Boyko, screw you what I thought a bystander in Balkan politics, me and you (probably) consider me a "traitor to Bulgarianness", "Macedonian language freak", "the Serb-communist mercenary", "Judeo-Masonic agent" "German-Russian element" and that everything I did.

Batali, most seriously telling you!

We're talking about human accidents.

For great personal tragedies.

For tips black lives.

For all that you called it "a lie" and called me "a liar".

Well, I have no problem with you calling me a 'liar'. From your mouth it sounds like a compliment. But what do we do with people who have been deprived of everything? And do they lie?

Think well what you answer.

Is there announced that the film will soon begin to show in Bulgaria?

"Third Half" will be displayed in Bulgaria when the Bulgarian state and its security services will allow its presentation on Bulgarian territory or cease to intimidate all those distributors who have expressed a desire to commercially demonstrate this movie.

In other words - when Bulgaria, a member of the European Union, will become a democratic and free country in which intellectual work and free thought are not sanctioned by the highest authorities of the executable and the legislature.

Until then - WWII in this part of the Balkans is not over.
