I am a Greek living in Denmark
I am personally very impressed by your website. I personally understand your feelings.
I have been in Turkey, have seen my ancestor's graves in: Sisli Run Ortodoks Mezarligi and in: Balikli Rum Ortodoks Mezarligi in Konstantinopoli. Seen the vandalism specialy in the Balikli cemetery. I have seen Agia Sofia and believe me, I cried.
I traveled in too Turkey, in Kappadokia, to see the places of my ancestors back in history, and I cried. I do not have any personal experience with those horrors that took place there. But I have a feeling of a very big loss.
The feeling of bitterness and the feeling of reposition of the lost territories and glories are in my mind, too. But I know, and am sure you know as well, that those feeling are destructive and counterproductive. It is my experience that the majority of common people in the West do not know even the name of Byzantium much less they know of the Greek tragedy. I believe that some how is a collective amnesia and refusal of guild. They do NOT understand those feelings.
As for the Turks, they know even less dew to propaganda and the twisting of history.
I am a humanist. I am old enough to know that "ism" is and have been the root of all evil in the world.
I am not naïve neither pacifist, action I will take if it is necessary.
I have a dream that same day in the future a liturgy will take place in Agia Sofia.
How is that possible you may ask?
I believe that it is possible through education, prosperity, understanding, forgiveness and wisdom from and for all people in the region. It may take time but it is possible. I have not up to date seen any website with so much concentration of the events and horrors that took place back in time, it is very educational and I appeal to you to continue. But somehow I wish you could make the presentation less threatening for the Turks, more appealing to Westerners and to add a peaceful vision for the future. It is my experience that way we will gain more understanding, sympathy, support and positive brain activity from the readers and especially from the readers that really mater The Greeks and The Turks. If you, I, and other Greeks take that path nobody will accuse us of living in the dreams of the past glories but acknowledge that we work, without denying the facts of history, towards a goal for the peaceful coexistence of the different cultures in the region. That way we have all much do gain and nothing to loose.

So he wrote that to the Webmaster of that site??? I agree iwth him on one thing... and at the same time disagree - show history as it was - and try to be objective at the same time try to show your personal history as a result of the greater happenings and this with subjective view... For only YOU can feel your pain and loss...

exactly kurdistani....if we want a peaceful future, we must stop perpetuating hate. In order for some people to come to terms with what they have done, they have to feel less threatened. I know plenty of people of all nationalities and they are not all bad people, just somewhat clueless in many cases about their country's history.
