Since when Borza is a hebrew?The truth is that i searched the net to find Borza's bio but i couldnt find one.Only that he is native in ohio,and that his wife is also of slav origin.The name Borza refers to maybe a slovenian,or coming from these territories.if you type "Eugene Borza bio" or something like that in google dozens of pages will come up of slavic origin,and especially from Skopja. The skopjans consider Borza a specialist in Macedonian history,and no wonder about that since Borza's views perfectly fit the skopjans' claims.Also Green is mentioned frequently.And what is written on these pages is just a joke.

Efstathios very interesting point.I know that modern politics is irrevelent to this board.However,there is something very fishy about Borza.He is quick to dissmiss any testomony by pre ATG historians who were alive at the time as Macedonian Royal Court propaganda, discounts archeological evidence states that Macedonians all dissappeared but there is evidence of a modern Macedonian nationality based soely on a cemmetary over 3000 miles away in Pittsburg PA because of a few immigrants from Ottoman Macedonia.A very obvious political agenda and a play on words.One can say there is no longer a Athenian or Spartan people since they blended in with other Greeks.If he does indeed have a yugo backround that in and of itself is not an issue.However you can rest assure that any one with a Greek backround writing about Macedonia would have his motive questioned.The fact that he states that Greece is using the Macedonia issue to justify its occupation of Macedonia is a very political statement that should be addressed.
