    Vangelovski, How do you suggest we tackle the name issue without a UMD office in Canberra? This is an extremely important issue for us here.

МАКЕДОНИЈА во срце те носиме.

      Prolet, did the world come into existence the day Meto stepped onto Australian soil?

      Or, if that question is too hard, maybe you can tell us what UMD has done in relation to the name dispute?

        You have been blinded by UMD's bullshit, Volk.

        The Macedonians have many reasonable and sensible strategies on the table.

        Negotiating our historical identity is not one of them. Its at the bottom of the list in the lunatic shitpile.

        The first thing we need to do is completely reject the terms Greece has put to us for what they are. We should immediately stop legitimating the injustice of the Greek position, because someone told the Macedonians that being "Civilized" means acknowledging and accepting the other side of the story. It is the Macedonians who are spreading the lie that the Greeks have a legitimate claim and the Greeks have a legitimate grievance - by engaging these "terms" in the first place. The Macedonians have internationalized the Greek position. These Western "structures" rob us of everything - they rob us of our rights, of our culture and undermine our historical and moral claims to self-determination. The key point is that the Macedonians are in effect undermining themselves, but they have not caught on to the Greek sophistry and complex framework of this scheme - so that don't realize what they are doing to all of us.

        There is this idea at UMD that if something is not recognzied by the West, it does not exist. Or an idea that you don't really exist until you have achieved political autonomy, or having achieved political autonomy that it somehow is not real if the West does not regard you as having a legitimate claim to nationhood.[1] Note that its all about the anti-Macedonian processes in the West - what the West thinks, what the West has set up. This is where UMD come into it as a "broker" to sell the Western position to the rest of us.

        These are the ideas behind the current anti-Macedonian (Western structures and institutions.

        [1] Meto had said to me that we were not a country before 1944

            While you guys argue amongst youselves, there is a national and international campaign that is being led by a Greek MP, which is gathering huge momentum as we speak.

              Vangelovski, UMD lobbied very hard in North America and i think they are on the right track here in Australia. An office in Canberra is a step in the right direction, the Embassy is there so they can work together.

              What in your opinion is the best way to tackle the name issue? Do you think its better for us here to be throwing mud on eachother or do you believe that we should be lobbying with the Australian MP's for support?

                Prolet, I think you should become UMD's spokesman.

                  MP, how about you continue on your merry way with your own "international campaign" with those 3 leading Australian Macedonian representatives. From what you've told us on this forum, there's no stopping you. Or, you could provide some useful information.

                    Vangelovski, To raise awareness for the Macedonian Cause, many Americans knew very little about Macedonia.

                    Now how do you suggest we tackle the issue regarding name recognition?

                        Macedonian cause? How do you define it?

                            Oh come on Vangelovski you know what im talking about, we have 15 senators on our side thanks to the UMD. Dont you think that is a good achievement?

                            And now you answer me about tackling the name dispute, how do we do it in Australia? You ruled out opening an office in Canberra so whats a better way to go about it?

                              MP, we still don't know who you supposedly represent (if anyone) or who supposedly supports you (again, if anyone).

                              You've made some sweeping claims on this forum, yet you havn't managed to deliver anything extraordinary. Now you're making claims that some unnamed Greek MP is leading an "international campaign" on something. I suppose you're here to save the day again?

                                Too little time to spare today to engage in a discussion about this, I'm afraid. Next time
