City Center...

Time: Friday 24th of July 2009 , 8:30 a.m
Place: Square Macedonia - City Center Skopje

- Church bells singing..
- a huge flag proudly standing in front of the stone bridge.
- The stone bridge carrying the smell of the Ottomans and holding the people above Vardar.
- An old man drinking coffee in a cafe..
- Two women discussing politics loudly (the name issue) in the same cafe.. the old man shushes them.
- A man cleaning the square..
- Flowers and Statues everywhere..
- An adorable old couple.. wearing funny hats.. and holding each others hands.. and walking towards the river..
- News paper delivery boy.. riding his bicylce.
- The Millenium Cross from one side.. the Ottoman Acropole (Kale) guarding the square..
- Me.. having Burek and Yogurt for Breakfast.. on a bench.. enjoying the view.. and saying to myself.. "its good to be here again.. and i will defenetly come back..."

Coming soon to Jordan..

Greek Neo-Nazis Attack Macedonian Minority

The Greek Neo-Nazi faction Golden Dawn, entered and ravaged during a promotion of a Macedonian-Greek dictionary, promoted by the party of the Macedonian minority in Greece called "Rainbow". Rainbow is part of the European Free Alliance and Greece is a member of the European Union. This should not be allowed to happen in third world countries let alone a EU member.

Because Rainbow is part of the EFA, such provocations can be seen as political pressure for the current European elections. It is not the first time for the neo-nazis to pull off such a stunt on behalf of Rainbow, but the Greek and EU authorities seem not to care as no official condemned the incident up until now. 

RIGHTS FOR THE MINORITIES OF GREECE!
RIGHTS FOR THE MACEDONIANS OF GREECE!
Its more than obvious now why Greece refuses to recognize Macedonia under its constitutional name.

Watch the attack on the clip bellow. All rights reserved to theMac3donian

Call me by my name.. Don't FYROM me.. Say Macedonia.

Eyes looking northwest...

if only i have wings to fly up high
fly till i start recognizing the houses of my place...
to go home..to see Stambol, Kukush to see

to see if the sun rises brighter than here
if it warms me more than here, my heart will shiver
if it is darker than herei will pack up by bags and run to see whats wrong

here its dark, and darkness is coating me
dust everywhere covering the autumn clouds
i need to feel the ice of autumn.. the first snow
the coldness of the ambient and smell of the fireplaces

No! i can not stay here
No! I can not watch this
give me wings to fly up high
fly till i see the chimnies and their smoke
to go home.. to see Ohrid, Skopje to see

There the dawn warms the soul
and the sun brightly sets in the woods
there the nature left its utmost beauty
clear lake from the sun goes white
and sister lake from the storms goes dark

rivers everywhere filled with wealth
mountains spread around filled with monastries
where ever your eyes look... they can see God's beauty
give me wings to fly up high
fly to celebrate Christmas where i will feel it
to go home... to see Solun, Strumica to see

to listen to the voice of peace.. and wait the new sun to be born...
