In my research today, I found a YouTube video of over a thousand Macedonians protesting in Indianapolis urging U.S. support for independence of Macedonia. The protest was held in 1922!!
The video can be seen at http://youtube.com/watch?v=Sfyws7TizHk
Towards the end you will notice that someone even flew a plane with the headline 'Independence for Macedonia.'
The Greek government claims that Macedonians do not exist and were a creation of Yugoslavia's Tito. How could this be possible when Macedonian-Americans called upon the U.S. to support Macedonia's independence in 1922.
Furthermore in my research, I came across this posting on the website of the Washington, D.C.-United Macedonian Diaspora about how the New York Times captured the Macedonian freedom struggle in the early 1900s. You can read this at http://umdiaspora.org/content/view/328/1/ and click here for TIME magazine's article in 1925: http://umdiaspora.org/content/view/324/1/
Greece continuously denies the existence of Macedonia and the Macedonian people. One has to ask what is the reason behind this?
