I'm sorry.. my English is quite not perfect..the discussion is really getting off-topic so that's my last post. But please
read carefully, this
was a Ivan Mihaylov's quote, not his grandson's one.Mihaylov, just talk about himself in third person, as he usually did. But if it wasn't enough for you, here's another one:
"In September 1989, Boris Vishinsky, a Skopje journalist, asked for an interview with the leader of the Macedonian liberation movement Ivan Mihaylov. He expressed his hope for such an interview to the Radio Vatican circles, which contacted Anton Popov, a journalist in the same radio. For many years he was the editor of Makedonska Tribuna, a newspapers that is published in the United States. Popov was one of the persons abroad Ivan (Vanche) Mihaylov trusted most. Radko, as we called Ivan Mihaylov, sensing the closing end of the so-called Yugoslavia, consented on such an interview, but he preferred to answer the questions in written form. This is what happened. The journalist Boris Vishinsky presented his written questions and Anton Popov sent them to Ivan Mihaylov"

B.V. You as a leader of the Macedonian movement in 1941 had the historical chance to proclaim the independent Macedonia as a Macedonian state, equal to all the other Balkan states. Why did not you do it?
I.M.:In short, on this issue I could say the following:
The liberation from Yugoslavia’s bondage that had been imposed as one of the regimes of King Alexander Karageorgievich was received with great joy by our population in Macedonia. Or, actually, by the greater part of it that not only felt – as it had always had until then – as Bulgarians, but it had always contributed to the enlargement of Bulgaria to Ochrida, to Hrupishta under Kostour, and to Kavala on the Aegean Sea coast.
These were the Bulgarians who were first to wait for the Bulgarian army in Macedonia, when Yugoslavia fell. At that time, and in the following weeks, the joy of this wide circle of patriots did not diminish at all.
I.M.: I had the chance to read something about the above-mentioned arguments. Shatorov from Prilep is a Bulgarian. He was right to believe that the Bulgarian army did not come to Macedonia as an occupation one. As far as Kolishevsky is concerned, we saw it in his acts that he is something of a Serboman. To me, Tempo is a man who thinks in a Serbian way about Macedonia, because he is actually a Serbian (from Monte Negro).
I.M.: When in 1941 the Bulgarian schools were opened in Macedonia, no riots were reported there, and no other schools were asked for. The old people, the older generation still had fresh memories about their studies in Bulgarian schools in Macedonia during the Ottoman rule.
I.M.: Some time ago I read some poetry in the “new language.” Other than that I have not read anything. I personally recognize only Bulgarian dialects in Macedonia. What you consider special literature and culture I think is nothing but a dialectal branch of Bulgarian national literature.
Here's the original link in Bulgarian:

You talk about rebutting..but rebutting what...Let's summarize:
What's the ethnicity of
Tsar Samuil, Goce Delchev, Yane Sandanski and Ivan Mihaylov?
What about the genetical heritage of the
Kuber's horde?
Why does all
Goce Delchev's letters and papers are written
without exception in literary
Bulgarian language, not in Macedonian dialect.
Why the VMRO's predecessor's organization name is
Bulgarian Macedonian-Adrianople Revolutionary Committee ?
Why
Goce Delchev was the author of the statute of the committee , which determines "A member of BMARC can be
any Bulgarian, independent of gender, who isn't discredited with anything dishonestly..."
Here's a letter, written by Goce Delchev to Nikola Maleshevski:
Kolyo (Nikola),
I have received all the letters sent by you and through you. Let us not allow the splits and splintering to frighten us. It is, indeed, a pity, but what can we do, since
we are Bulgarians and all suffer from one common disease. If this disease had not been present in our ancestors, from whom we inherited it, they would have never fallen under the sceptre of the Turkish Sultan..."
You see, that letter is a
original document, not a quote in English, or a Iraqi children picture.
Yane Sandanski:He regarded Slav Macedonian population and its language as Bulgarian: in his "Memoirs" Sandanski called his language "Bulgarian"
По пѫтя ние говоримъ турски, но не знаемъ турски та още презъ нощьта решихме да говоримъ български.
I've asked you several times about these historical figures and their place in Macedonian history. We both know that that your "istorichari" consider Delchev as Macedonian, while he writes in letters "We are Bulgarians". Isn't that ridiculous? Isn't ridiculous that you claim Tsar Samuil as a Macedonian tsar? Let'see the Bitola inscription, written by Samuil's son Ivan Vladislav:
This Tsar was Bulgarian by birth, grandson of the pious Nikola and Ripsimia, son of Aaron, who was brother of Samuil, Tsar of Bulgaria, the two who routed the Greek army of Emperor Basil II at Stipone where gold was taken [...] and in [...] this Tsar was defeated by Emperor Basil in 6522 (1014) since the creation of the world in Kliyutch and died at the end of the summer.
Talking about rebutting, eh?This is again a original historical source, not a Comintern bullsh*t. If you want I can post you documents about the creation of your language and alphabet by ASNOM in 1944, but I think it's enough. My message is simple...be Martians if you want, but please do not steal Bulgarian, Serbian and Greek history.
I repeat, this was my last post in that thread. Again, sorry for the bad English.
