Hey, at least we're not like Greece. If we were like Greece, we'd be hysterically afraid of our eastern neighbor and trying to prove our manhood by bitching about something completely unimportant like Norway having a province called 'Finnmark'."Spirit merges with matter to sanctify the universe. Matter transcends to return to spirit. The interchangeability of matter and spirit means the starlit magic of the outermost life of our universe becomes the soul-light magic of the innermost life of our self." - Dennis Kucinich, candidate for the U. S. presidency
"That’s the future of the Democratic Party: providing Republicans with a number of cute (but not that bright) comfort women." - Adam Yoshida, Canada's gift to the world

I think the brutal Finns should stop oppressing the native Saami and give them independence now!!

Ok, I can see calling it Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), but then I want to see Greece called Former Turkish Principality of Greece (FTPOG)

Since when have you campaigned for the Saami?
Anyway, independece to all of Macedonia (FYROM and the part of Macedonia located in Greece) could be an interesting solution too."Kids, don't listen to uncle Solver unless you want your parents to spank you." - Solver

It seems you people from America have absolutely no sense of national identity. In Europe things are different. States are still nation-states. Therefore when another "state" fabricates history another's sense of national identity is insulted.
Men fought and died for ideals such as "Macedonia" and "Hellas", an outlaw state can't simply claim it's descendancy from ancient Macedonia and believes we should feel okay about it.
My great great grandfather fought at the Macedonian rebellion of 1878, so why don't you "liberal" people go tell him about your views of Macedonia."Military training has three purposes: 1)To save ourselves from becoming subjects to others, 2)to win for our own city a possition of leadership, exercised for the benefit of others and 3)to exercise the rule of a master over those who deserve to be treated as slaves."-Aristotle, The Politics, Book VII
All those who want to die, follow me!
Last words of Emperor Constantine XII Palaiologos, before charging the Turkish hordes, on the 29th of May 1453AD.

You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

After you ask him go ask my great grandfather, Demetrius, who fought in the Macedonian Struggle of 1904-1908. You see "liberal" Finns our ancestors have been fighting their whole lives for a Greek Macedonia cleansed from Bulgars and Slavs. And why was that?
It was because they knew in their hearts that Macedonia was Greek."Military training has three purposes: 1)To save ourselves from becoming subjects to others, 2)to win for our own city a possition of leadership, exercised for the benefit of others and 3)to exercise the rule of a master over those who deserve to be treated as slaves."-Aristotle, The Politics, Book VII

Yes. It was a rhetorical question."Military training has three purposes: 1)To save ourselves from becoming subjects to others, 2)to win for our own city a possition of leadership, exercised for the benefit of others and 3)to exercise the rule of a master over those who deserve to be treated as slaves."-Aristotle, The Politics, Book VII
