I think that all these positions are ridiculous to the extreme and
they have, in fact, being ridiculed in the news media as well.
However, there is a more disturbing trend ongoing. Gruevski is
working hard to portray Greece as the villain within FYROM and stoke
the flames of nationalism. It is an old method, used by the original
Macedonist to explain some facts on the ground. For example, how come
there are few if any "dedicated Macedonians" in Greek Macedonia? The
Macedonist explanation is that there were "vast expulsions of
Macedonians" and the settling of Asia Minor refugees and southern
Greeks as well as extensive "brain washing" and "assimilation" of the
remaining natives.
Now, Gruevski is beating the drums that Greece is trying to destroy
the ethnic consciousness of the "Macedonians". Not a word, of course,
of how all this affects the Macedonians of the Greek province. The
amazing thing is that the Greek political establishment, preoccupied
with its usual strife for power, is allowing him all the latitude he
wants. Instead of countering hard Gruevski's silly and dangerous
propaganda, the Athens establishment (and it includes all parties)
have managed to stick its collective head up its ass. The Greek
public is seriously bemused. In fact, putting together the votes of
the two major parties in the recent election, one gets less than 70%
when only a decade ago, they accounted for >82%. My guess is that in
the next general election, both ND and the socialists would fail to
form a government leading to stupid coalition politics and further
deterioration of the foreign policy.
Anastasi,
When you write to insulting titles, or answer netbabiies or arrested
adolescents, what image do you expect to conjure up of yourself?
Respected scientist? Obsessed nationalist?
You obviously do not object into posting in threads with "insulting"
titles. I think that the content is what is important, not the title
of the thread which anybody can change. If I were not posting in
"insulting titles", I was not going to be posting at all.
Now, if you have any comments on the actual notion of my reply, I
would be glad to hear it.
Schneider,
When you write insulting titles, or act like a netbaby or arrested
adolescent, what image do you expect to conjure up of yourself?
Respected person? Obsessed nationalist?
Suggest the following immediately.:
1. Killfile and ignore all posts of Gail Schneider, under all of her
netnames, even those where she pretends Orthodoxy.
2. Use one definable netname, whoever you are. No one wants to guess
whether it's you, whoever you are. People using more than one netname
should be killfiled
3. Stop worrying about other people's posts and cease misrepresenting
Fyrominas as anything but the West Bulgarians they are.
4. Any news postings on any topic should have your personal
commentary attached and the originating URL.

Wow, another crazy.....!! In fact, in 1918 - 1919 Greece send an
expeditionary force of 24.000 men to fight the Red Army in Crimea with
the result that Lenin and the Red Army send supplies and artillery to
the rebel Turks under Kemal Ataturk to repel Allied control over
Anatolia!!
Greek relations with Russia have always been rather stand-off-ish
despite the fact that the Russo-Turkish war of 1828-29 contributed a
lot to the Greek independence. Greece sided with Russia during the
Crimean war but purely out of self interest because it wanted to
liberate Greek areas under Ottoman control. The Anglo-French blockade
put an end to this. Subsequently, the Greek royal family got more and
more aligned with the monarchies of the Central Powers and, in fact,
Crown Prince Constantine (later Constantine I) had extremely close
ties with the Kaiser (which ended up being a great disaster for
Greece). Constantine had to be expelled prior to Greece joining the
Entente Cordial. The rest is history.
It is amazing how even simple history can be twisted by fanatics.
Valotres and Comnie's obtuse archive shows how the West loved Greece
but only pulled away because Russia was too close. And Russia wanted
the straits for itself. The only Greece Russia ever tolerated was one
that was a part of Russia. Throughout the 1800s the West saw Turkey as
subservient to Russia. A lot of good that did to Greece. And the West
considered Athos to be the Russian Gibraltar. That's why the Junta kept
trying to close Athos, because it was, and still is, a soviet spy base.
The Greeks need to kick Russia in the shins and ask EU/NATO for
economic control of the Black Sea. All these Slavs do is keep sucking
Greece into their filthy muddy obschina like quicksand. Bovine
squatters who turned the Balkans into one big Borg collective. Better
off the Greeks dominated Turkey than the Russians!

Ever since the panslobschina reared its arse brain out of the moist and
mouldy sewer swamp in the seventh century when, they have been complaining
about "Greek Nationalism" whenever the Greeks resist attempts to take
Constantinople or Thessaloniki. Isaiah Berlin has clearly shown that
nationalism is a positive and healthy force as opposed to the hubristic
ideolatric collectives which seek to subplant it.
Perso-Russian Roots of Macedonia Crisis
330 BC Great Alexander fences first Russians, Magog of Persian Gog,
with Caspian Gate of Caucasian Dervent. Scyths, Turks, and Russians
are mindless barbarian extracts of Persian steambathing deerherders,
and in sum constitute the eternal threat not only to Hellenism but all
civilization.
866 Patriarch Fotios commences schism on Rome Pope Nicholas on cause
of Bulgarian frivolities favoring Rome. This instigated orientalist
Platonic Chrysostomist black clergy overcoming Aristotelian Capadocian
whites after collapse of iconoclasm.
1235 Bulgarians declare Trnvo Third Rome, seeking Greece and
Constantinople. This adopted by Russians in in 1589, declaring
protocommunist obschina to slavify world The urban mentality is the
root of Hellenistic Civilisation, thus those seeking peasant clan
naturalism are slavseeded squatters.
1342 Communist Zealotes take Salonica, slaughtering aristocracy on
orders of Russian agent Gregory Palamas. Palamas brings Slavs and
Turks to support 1345 Cantacuzene usurpation, giving Turks knowledge
of defenses. Spread oriental demonic hyperventilatory hallucination
hesychasm, turning monks into soviet agents. Toynbe wrote that Asia
Minor farmers embraced Turks to avoid Cantacuzene taxation.
1824 Russia opposes to the creation of unique Greek state and under
orders of Minister of Exterior Nesserode (German victor for seat
against Kapodistrias) proposes to remaining powers the foundation of
three separated Greek statelets, vassal tributary simultaneously to
Turkey and Russia, as earlier with Moldovia and Georgia.
1843 On command of Nesselrode is dispatched the panslav Archimandrite
Uspensky to turn Arab-held Grecophone Christian flocks of Jerusalem
and Antioch patriarchs and finally achieves in 1847 the detachment of
Antioch who now proclaims dehellenising dissemination. Turning to
Persozoroastrian roots, Russians embrace monofysites as misunderstood
victims of Greeks, and fabricate supposed Aramaic Gospels over Greek.
These efforts consummated century later with Michael Aflaq, founder of
Saddam Assad Ba'ath Party.
1870 Panslavs assault Ecumenical Patriarchate with publication of
Turkish firman founding autocephalous Bulgarian racial parasynagogues,
supposed Exarchate, under orders of Russian ambassador Ignatief. Now
they distort the synodical anathema at racism against dispora. They
allocated five myriad rubles in 1872 to slavify Holy Mountain and
expel Greeks.
1878 Ignatief forces Turkey sign St. Stephen Treaty commencing FYROM
and creating Greater Bulgaria inclusive of Salonica. Ignatief
announces "And now if Greeks wish Constantinople, let them arrive
swimming!"
1923 Plastiras slaughters victors of Macedonia, allowing orientalists
Vafiades and Zahariades commence civil war. Meletios Metaxakis seeks
move Patriarchate to Moscow at Lenin invitation and organises supposed
panOrthodox Youth Syndesmos. In 1937 Stalin displaces 285 thousand
Russian Greeks to Archangel and Siberia and slaughters them. The black
goats force even Mataxas and Junta into Socialism

I like the fact that the zealots were communists!!! I guess that Marx
and Engels has traveled back in time and formed a communist party
there!!! I also enjoy the fact that Gregory Palamas was a Russian
agent considering the fact that there was no Russian state at that
time and whatever had been left standing was under the control of the
Golden Horde. All the rest are such a gamish of stupidities or
lies.
Hesychasm played an important role but it was certainly not oriental
(as Gregory Palamas lived in Thessaloniki!!) nor demonic. But one
needs far saner minds to discuss such issues.
Vasos is creative, no?

The heathen vulgar soviets have only destroyed you
Old Fatimist argument, disputed by Orthodox who claim Hesychasts opposed
Zealotes. Toynbeasts further argue Greeks went from 1821-liberated mainland
to Smyrna to escape taxation. Anti-Obamists should recall Tzars had free
universal health care. It could be said that some concepts came from

popular party, which proclaimed a program of social welfare and
religious puritanism, massacred the upper classes, and established a
commune which maintained itself until 1350, thus isolating the city
from the rest of the empire... usurpation of John VI Cantacuzenus

Russia must re-focus with post-imperial eyes
By Zbigniew Brzezinski 1jul9 ft.com
President Barack Obama should have three central goals in mind when he
meets Russia's President Dmitry Medvedev and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin
next week: first, to advance US-Russian co-operation in areas where our
interests coincide; second, to emphasise the mutual benefits in handling
disagreements between the two countries within internationally respected
"rules of the game"; and third, to help shape a geopolitical context in which
Russia becomes increasingly conscious of its own interest in eventually
becoming a genuinely post-imperial partner of the Euro-Atlantic community.
Of the three, the first is the easiest; the second is sensitive but needs
to be faced, lest there be repetitions of what happened last August, when
Russian troops invaded Georgia; and the third can only be sought indirectly -
but the effort has to be strategically deliberate. In any case, it is evident
that both countries would benefit from better relations. Fortunately, the
financial crisis has made the Russian elite aware that, for the first time in
its history, Russia's well-being depends on the well-being of the outside
world and especially of America. That reality of inter-dependence creates a
felicitous setting for the summit.
Moreover, on some important issues collaboration is not only possible, but
mutually beneficial. That is especially true with reciprocal reductions in
nuclear weaponry, a compromise on US plans for an anti-ballistic-missile
shield and joint efforts to enhance the nuclear non-proliferation treaty ,
among other security arrangements.
Unfortunately, on Iran, it is uncertain that the conventional wisdom -
which asserts that Russia genuinely wants to be helpful - is correct. To the
Russian leadership, the two long-term challenges to its power come from the
US and China. Both countries would suffer grievously, while Russia would
greatly benefit, if a US-Iranian crisis triggered a surge in energy
prices. Hence Russian willingness to be helpful may be more formal than real.
Nor should one ignore the reality that there are serious - though not
war-threatening - geopolitical conflicts of interest between the US and the
Russian Federation. The bottom line is that Mr Putin resents and wants in
some fashion to reverse the disintegration of the Soviet Union. Gaining
control over Ukraine would restore in effect an imperial Russia, with the
potential to ignite conflicts in Central Europe. Subduing Georgia would cut
the west's vital energy connection (the Baku-Ceyhan pipeline) to the Caspian
Sea and to Central Asia. Azerbaijan then would have no choice but to submit
to Moscow's control.
Indeed, in the summit meetings, Mr Putin and Mr Medvedev will be looking
for signs that the new US administration disowns the charters on partnership
with Ukraine and Georgia signed by former President George W. Bush. Even an
unintentional signal to that effect would be seen as a green light for more
muscular Russian actions against these two countries.
Hence a frank discussion is needed to lay down some mutually accepted
"rules of the game". The US can indicate that Nato membership is not imminent
for either country, but that the US and Russia have to respect Ukraine's or
Georgia's right to make that choice. In the meantime, Russia must understand
that the use of force or promotion of ethnic conflicts to destabilise Ukraine
or Georgia would poison American-Russian relations.
Clarity on these matters, achieved through respectful but realistic
discussions, would reduce the risks of Russia trying to restore an imperial
system in the space previously occupied by the Tsarist empire and then the
Soviet Union. Gradual consolidation of the existing national pluralism in
that space would accelerate the fading of historically futile imperial
ambitions.
Using the Moscow visit to identify America's vision of the future with
Russia's own but still partially repressed democratic aspirations should be
part of the summit ritual. Presumably there will be some chance to convey
that message, either through a speech or gesture to honour the many (and
currently in Russia ignored) victims of Leninism-Stalinism. That would also
help shape a political context for Russia's evolution towards a genuine
partnership with the world of democracy.
A final point: the previous US administration favoured trivial
personalisation of its relationship with Russia (such as references to Mr
Putin's "eyes" or "soul") and highly over-stated claims of breakthroughs
("the best relationship ever" between the two countries). A more serious
strategic approach that produces Russia's acceptance of its new post-imperial
realities and encourages its democratic evolution is more likely to yield
enduring results, while not unleashing unrealistic public expectations.

I'm the guy who gave and undergrad Obama a copy of the Birchie "None
Dare Call It Conspiracy" (which I don't believe in, and even then had
doubts about, but had just encountered).
ZB writes about how he "found" Carter in many places.
What I put in brackets, I think is rather widely believed
(ad hominem, by all homanids, I agree).
There were 450 of us in his Spring'83 class.
Where did they hold the class, in a basketball court?
I'm not surprised Galina knows him - I know a Skopyan WDC
official who is friends with ZB's son.
*+-Where did they hold the class, in a basketball court?
Schermerhorn, I think the third floor.
Remember the John Housman "Smith Barney, we earn it" ads - they wer in
chandler, where I took Organic chem. Pretty much a similar classroom.
My St Andrew Academy (Tassop, Beechurst) 8th grade geography teacher,
John leDonne (now at Harvard) did his 1962 Ph D with ZB. It's funny
the both put the bottom of their shoe on the wall behind them and
tugged on their ear while speaking.

The "important" part of "None Dare Call it Conspiracy" is the idea
of the non-conspiracy conspiracy. That people sharing the same
logical presuppositions, consciously or not, tend to reach similar
conclusions. E.G. if you believe that a bigger government is necessary
to solve problems, then you have a natural ally in those who agree
with you, be they of the "Left" or the "Right": you both agree with
the premise: bigger government is good.
And so on. Those who believe in the True Presence of Christ in
the Bread and Wine of Communion, will come to similar conclusions
about how communion is to be done. Those who believe it to be a
memorial service of some kind, will wind up tossing back a shot glass
of grape juice and a bread ball once a quarter if they can fit it into
the schedule.

Monotheism, someone has said, offers two simple axioms:
1) There is a God.
2) It's not you.

I agree. Unilingual speakers of English are often completely unable to

I agree: the only conspiracy is the devil himself; That explains why
