FLORENTIA challenged a post about Drama and Serres, which, as she wrote, mentioned 300,000 dead Muslims, coercion of survivors to convert to Christianity, and concealment of events from Europe for 80 years. She characterized these claims as unhistorical and cited the Ottoman census of 1906/1907, according to which the total Muslim population of the Sanjak of Serres, which included Drama, was below 175,000. Regarding the period of the Second Balkan War, in June and July 1913, she stated that the cities were under Bulgarian occupation. She referenced a report by the Carnegie Foundation from 1914, which, as she claimed, recorded that the retreating Bulgarians burned more than 4,000 houses in Serres and killed hundreds of Greek civilians. She added that the Greek Army stopped the destruction and that, based on records from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it had guaranteed by proclamation the safety, property, and religious freedom of all residents. According to her, the Muslims who remained in Macedonia retained their religious rights and their mosques until the Population Exchange. FLORENTIA also stated that, according to the Treaty of Lausanne, approximately 350,000–400,000 Muslims were organized and peacefully relocated from Greece to Turkey. She countered that the number of 1.5 million referred to Greeks from Asia Minor and Pontus, whom, as she wrote, were violently displaced or exterminated by the Young Turks and the Kemalist regime. She concluded by arguing that turning tourist destinations into tools of hatred through false claims and distortion of historical evidence constituted a new practice. #Ιστορία #Δράμα #Σέρρες (translated)

Dennis Mitzner criticized Timo Stewart for suggesting that he believed Israel was an obstacle to the two-state solution. Mitzner argued that the Palestinians had not accepted Israel's state proposals in direct negotiations, the latest of which were the Camp David and Taba offers in 2000–2001, as well as Ehud Olmert's offers in 2008. He added that Israel unilaterally withdrew from Gaza in 2005. According to Mitzner, the PLO's decades-old support for the two-state solution did not indicate that the Palestinians accepted Israel's existence as a Jewish state. Mitzner wrote that Stewart viewed the destruction of Hamas's ideology as unrealistic without killing all people. Mitzner interpreted this to mean that Stewart considered all Gazans as supporters of Hamas's ideology, but he himself said he would not go that far. He referred to Hamas's election in Gaza and claimed that no Gazan had attempted to help Israeli hostages in the past couple of years. Mitzner compared the situation to the Allies' victory over Nazism and the defeat of Japan, as well as the actions of the United Arab Emirates against the Muslim Brotherhood. He stated that the Western left should stop rewarding Palestinian violence and anti-Semitism. According to Mitzner, Stewart claimed that there was no Palestinian state because Israel occupied the territory and did not allow it to become independent. Mitzner denied this and described the area's history: according to him, it belonged to the British mandate from 1917 and prior to that to the Ottoman Empire. He wrote that the Arab leadership rejected the UN's 1947 partition plan, after which Jordan controlled the West Bank and Egypt controlled Gaza without establishing a Palestinian state. According to Mitzner, the territories came under Israeli control in the 1967 war, which Jordan, Egypt, and Syria initiated with the intent to destroy, and the Arab world's negative attitude towards Israel continued with the Khartoum resolution of the three no's. Mitzner claimed that Stewart ignored Palestinian actions and concluded by asking whether the dispute ultimately related to the fact that the opposing side was the Jewish state of Israel. #IsraelinVastaisetAsenteet #Palestiinalaiskysymys #KansainvälinenPolitiikka (translated)

John Vatatzes wrote that the Tsar of the Bulgarians, Samuel, had built, approximately 1,000 years ago, the church of Saint Achilles on an islet in Little Prespa and that the lakes of Ohrid and Prespa were in the heart of his kingdom. He mentioned that Professor Nikolaos Moutsopoulos had found the bones of Samuel in 1965 on Greek soil and that they were kept in Thessaloniki. According to Vatatzes, Greece was asking Bulgaria to return thousands of relics and manuscripts that, he claimed, had been looted from monasteries in Eastern Macedonia and Thrace during the occupation of the area in 1917. He also noted that the Treaty of Neuilly provided for their return and that in 2014, during the premiership of Antonis Samaras, it had been agreed to return approximately 2,000 relics, without Greece agreeing to relinquish the rest. He himself accused Kyriakos Mitsotakis of giving Bulgaria the bones of Samuel in 2026, which he described as being of inestimable historical and ideological value to the Bulgarians, in exchange for just 48 relics. He compared the move to Alexis Tsipras's concession of the name Macedonia in 2018 and argued that Greece had now lost its bargaining tool for the return of the remaining relics. #Ελλάδα #Ιστορία #Μακεδονία (translated)
