Onur, any idea why the president of the TCA is not Turkish?

I don't know for sure but McCurdy`s name is familiar in Turkey. AFAIK, he has connections here for very long time and he was an ambassador of US in Turkey for a while. His Turkish is quite good and he was saying that he loves Turkey and making funny comments like he would like to be our modern day janissary to eradicate the unjustified negative image of Turkey, mostly presented as such by Armenian and Greek lobbies.

I think he is not a president in a regular sense since even if he likes Turkey that much, he is not Turkish in the end. So, i believe he is president because of his political influence in US and he might be a familiar face in USA more than any Turkish person there.

Is the TCA representative of pro-Turkish views or is it a self-appointed State Department mouthpiece like UMD?

The ONLY "GUARANTEE" the World Macedonian Diaspora will give is to expose lies and false promises.

To whom it may concern,

Regarding the letter from UMD sent to the Macedonian Government calling for an end to negotiations with greece.

Any response yet from Gruevski and co?

If No, why not and is the UMD going to follow up and insist on a response.

[UMDiaspora.org]

Bill77 - no response yet. We will be following up.

As an organization does the UMD support the release of the WikiLeaks?

Classic example of says one thing & does another.I agree with MK & Bill they are onto them.
There's a saying bill don't hold your breath waiting for a response.The letter writing is just that maybe they forgot a forwarding address & a stamp on it !!They appear to be doing something & it's called a big fat nothing.

I'll be SHOCKED if the UMD says they fully support the release of the ANTI USA WikiLeaks.

Well, UMD the ball is in your court so you can reply or pretend it will passover.

In the last month George Soros has come undone and it's very possible that he has paid LARGE for the release of the WikiLeaks documents? If that be the case then the CIA should let us know about it. Normally, when the US comes under this kind of attack they begin to bomb others to distract the world so fasten your seat belts because this is how world wars begin.

Look what was happening in Kumanovo this week:









Albanians in Macedonia have way too many rights, and I believe these rights will endanger the sovereignty and unity of Macedonia. Albanian nationalism in Macedonia has been rising since 2001 thanks to that stupid framework agreement. Now every year on November 28 Macedonia celebrates "Albanian National Flag day". WTF. This isn't what our ancestors and the Ilindenci had in mind when they envisioned a Macedonian Republic. I can only blame Macedonian politicians for allowing and fostering an environment suitable for Albanian nationalism to expand.

Let's quickly look at some of the flaws that will cost Macedonia big one day:

- Albanian flag allowed to be flown on Macedonian government municipal buildings, and streets of cities with Albanian minority population.

-Students of Albanian origin are separated from Macedonian students in classes

-Albanian textbooks for the students are flawed, for example, they are not just an Albanian translation of the Macedonian books, they are totally different books in that they focus on Albania and history of the Albanian people (in Albania). I remember seeing an Albanian elementary school book that are used in Macedonia from that Macedonian Ministry website. In it, it showed some children illustrations of kids talking to each other saying something like "Hi, my name is Ismail and I am an Albanian from Kosovo, Hi my name is Habib and I am from Albania, and one from Macedonia, but together we are all Albanians". WTF how will this help Macedonia? Look at the message these children are taught from a young age.

- Albanian students are taught Albanian and English from the first grade, Macedonian is taught from the fourth grade but only as a second language which means that math, history, biology, and all the scientific vocabulary are taught in the Albanian language. How the fu** is this supposed to integrate Albanians into Macedonian society? And why is English being taught before Macedonian?

-Mosques are popping up in Macedonia like weeds. For example in Skopje there are like 30+ mosques and only a few churches, but 75% of Skopje is apparently Christian. This means that mosques are being built solely for political purposes by Albanian groups, sometimes without the appropriate documentation or permits yet the Macedonian government isn't doing anything about it. In fact, it is probably easier to build a mosque than it is to build a church in Macedonia (legally).

-the law that changed municipal borders to make Albanians the majority in places like Struga was a disaster for Macedonia. Why is the government looking after the interests of Albanians before the Macedonians?

-I remember reading a news article a couple of months ago that said out of the 300 newly hired government workers in Maceonia, 99% are Albanians, because of the new law that requires bilingualism in the Albanian language.

-Let's not forget the new "Skenderbeu Square" proposed for the center of Skopje, it was approved by the Macedonian government, and according to the details it will be significantly larger than "Macedonia Square" and it is supposed to be the new meeting place for the city.

-Albanians in the Macedonian government are every week in Albania or Kosovo collaborating with Albanian politicians and signing agreements.

-I could go on and on.

I guess what I am trying to say is that after the Republic of Macedonia won independence in 1991, you would have expected a process of Macedonianization to take place in the country. Just look at the policies in Albania, Greece, Bulgaria, and Serbia. But this is not happening in Macedonia, instead I get the feeling that Macedonia as a state is working in favor of the Albanian people, instead of the Macedonian population (Albanianization).

Albanianization in Macedonia - REALITY CHECK for UMD-Ovci!

[Makedonska_Kafana]

Does that coincide with UMD or Government policy?

When WikiLeaks is done the USA and organizations that fully support them and their actions will be the biggest losers.

USA HAS ONLY ONE REAL FRIEND (CITIZENS) AND THAT IS FADING VERY FAST - ZERO TRUST

Phil Reeker 2011 Goce Delchev Award? George Soros? Steve Stamkos? Might be a great idea to scrap that UMD award all together?

UMD Offended by Insulting and Racist Comments by UWA Professor

UMD Perth Regional Representative Dame Krcoski sent a letter today to the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Western Australia (UWA) Mr Alan Robson strongly protesting the insulting and racist comments by UWA Associate Professor John Melville-Jones. Professor Melville-Jones, an Associate Professor at UWA in Classics and Ancient History spoke before an audience in Melbourne, in which he referred to Macedonians in Perth as “not well educated” and stated that it was “easy to brain-wash them.”
