Listen,
I don't want to offend the Forum,but tell me how can i erase from my mind all the suffering that the Bulgarian nation suffered from the Ottoman rule.
Since the turks came in Bulgaria lots of people died.
It's almost 500 years ( 1396-1878 ) of slavery.
We were turned in slaves that had to work for the Turkish Sultan to provide him resources from our own lands.
But yeah i am not saying the last kings of Bulgaria were good too.
They were weak ,so partially it's their fault to let the Ottomans invade Bulgaria in 14-15 century.
And Jhivkov...Yes i know what you speak about.That was just before the falling of the comunism in 1988-1989.
And now the turkish goverment is trying to use that against us.
You don't understand that the victims the turks had in Bulgaria in the time of our liberation are just a drop comparing to the countless Bulgarians which died in the 5 century Ottoman rule in Bulgaria,terorized,murdered,etc.And i don't even want to start speaking about the Jannisaries,which were babies robbed from Bulgarian christian families to become warriors of the Sultan
It's better to stop this now otherwise it would go worst.
Bulgarian prime minister has just been in Turkey,so he said the things clear :
We don't need political party to intermediate between Turkey and Bulgaria ( like existing DPS ) . If Turkey is claiming to enter Europe,you have to show a lot of respect to us Bulgarians .Because you own it to us.You also own us reparations for the Eastern Thrace lands.So if Turkey really wants to be a newcoming European member,you have to change your opinion for the Bulgars from now on.Because we don't own you nothing,You came in this area from Central Asia,so please play fair with your neibhours,because we have been in this Balkan peninsula more that you are.
And if you think i am spoiling your forum,you can ban me ,i have no problem with that.
But i will not close my eyes for the truth.
I have rights to speak.
And just trying to show you the truth.
It's a nice forum,you can learn a lot of things here and everybody defends his nation and culture,so i defend mine.
And Ottomans were enemies of the Bulgars,that's why i am saying all those things.
But that was in the past.now is diferent.But there is still pressure and i can feel it everytime i go to Bulgaria.
What if tommorow muslims and gipsies make their own republic in Bulgaria like Kosovo in Serbia for example.
I really don't want to see that happening.
So ,these are the things i am speaking about.
If you don't want to read it don't read it.But it's the truth.
Would you be happy if your country is overrun by another race or people tell me brother ?
This is what can happen in my country too if the politicans don't find the right solutions to make.And also a new open dialogue with Turkey is needed ,now more than ever.
Because the world is globalizing and we all need to be better now.
Leave the past behind.
Please excuse if i offended anyone again,but my heart is crying for Bulgaria which i haven't seen for year and a half now.
Bye !
