My Favorite President,

Because personally, I believe that you are my favorite President. I know that you are part of the system, otherwise, you would not be in this position. I know that for every decision you make, an order has been issued from your personal cabinet and your 200 advisors, military or not… I know all about such things, as I know that the implementation of each decision people are informed about depends on the governors of each state.

I need you to understand that I am a person with her own mind, and therefore I am mentioning all these. You may wonder that since I know such things, how is it possible that you are my favorite? This is exactly the point… This question. You are because when you deliver a speech and talk outside of the typical stuff, they ask you to say, you have your own mind and your own unique type of personality, and I know that you can’t be easily manipulated.

The moment has arrived Mr. President, the world we know will come to an end, unless you take immediate action. You will remain in history for all the wrong reasons and not for the great things you are implementing in our society. Catching all the pedophiles, cleaning the system from all the scum in society that infects this pure world.

I live in America for the past twenty years. When I first arrived, I worked in restaurants. I know what hard work is, my children and I strived each day to get paid. I have met people from all over the world with different cultures and philosophies. Life hasn’t been easy because I had to worry about taking care of my family and adjusting in an obviously foreign country at that time. Later I loved America like it was my own country.

My life is simple. I raised my children on my own and this is what I taught my kids. To not be jealous of wealth, but only seek what is necessary for having a good life. We came from a country that taught us to be proud and have respect for others no matter where we are. I am proud to be Greek and I understand what is happening with all those traitors of politicians that we have. You and them reading my letter, will be smiling with irony, but let me explain, not all the things that you know of for my country but for those they have let you in the dark about.

During the ‘40s, when the Germans left, the communist “patriot” guerrillas in agreement with the Germans, British, and Russians took away many children. Since parents after the war were not able to raise their children, they took them to raise them and educate them. In other words, after the war, they brought the lower class to its knees – as is the case now which the only one left is the middle class but is being hit every day. The same story is repeated by the oligarchy. These children, my dear President, became members of parliament and later Prime Ministers after the war and then their families did the same, none of them, after they were taken, was Greek at heart, only in origin.

Because after such brainwash, all the teachings and manipulation they were against Greece… So, after the war, these are the people that govern my country and you are very well aware of the fact that it doesn’t matter when people vote. Votes are only used as a tool to make people feel guilty. All Presidents are chosen by the oligarchy. When, where, and which place they will hold… So, the people have no say, it just looks like they have. There is no democracy only dictatorship. Democracy only existed in ancient Greece…

I don’t wish to teach you history. I am certain that you know a lot of things. You are one of the most knowledgeable Presidents on these matters… For this reason, I am telling you, my dear President, that as you love this magical country and you want it to remain independent, the same way I love the country I was born in, Greece. Nowadays, these rotten Presidents, after the years of the Memorandums, are selling this beautiful country… They are selling out something that does not belong to them. Greece belongs to the Greeks, my dear President, the same way America belongs to the Americans.

What would you say if all the Cubans, who live in Miami, someday tells you that we are a minority and want Miami for ourselves because we live here 100 years?? What would you do, Mr. President, if the illegal invaders from the sea, starting asking and demanding land in your country, a country and aland that belongs to the true Americans? This is what happened to us, they flooded our islands, all the tired, “poor”, illegal people that came to Greece from the sea. The country is Bombarded by that many refugees, that came to our country to have all the privileges from cards, houses, education, land, without even having to work and they take, with the permission of the government, the land of our ancestors and the money of every tax-paying citizen… Not only from Greece but from the whole European Union.

To better understand the situation, at the census of March in 2001, there were 796.713 foreigners in Greece, out of which more than half were from Albania. The rest were from other Balkan countries such as Romania, Serbia, Bulgaria, and North Macedonia. From 2001 to 2019, arrived in Greece   2.750.697 known illegal migrants and in the majority were from the East, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Syria, Bangladesh, Iraq, etc. Not to mention the unreported number of illegal migrants that arrived by thousands in Greece.

To be more specific, in 2015, with the laughable policy of “free hosting” came in Greece 911.470 known illegal migrants and half a million that was not reported at all, they all still reside illegally in my country. It is outrageous that during the 1950s the percentage of the Muslims that arrived and stayed in Greece wasn’t over than 1% of the whole population of the country! And now? In 2020 it is estimated that the percentage of the Muslims that arrived and reside in Greece, both legal and illegal, are 12-16% of the whole population of my Greece.

The refugees and immigrants that reside in hosting structures, hotspots and camps all over Greece have reached 54.000! They live there for free; they eat for free – better than all the poor Greeks and there are children that pass out from hunger – they are entitled to allowances, and there is no policy that will let them assimilate and work.

How ridiculous does this seem to you? It is the same as if I came to America without finding a job in order to receive from the state and from the thousands of NGO an amount of $4000 per month with a free house and all my education paid for my children and the hardworking tax-paying American should cover all these expenses from their money. How does this seem to you? Is it fair?

And so, they arrived to our islands and mainland, we were conquered by Turkey, without having to spare a bullet… But maybe this was something that our “allies” and our “traitorous” governments wanted. Not to shed a bullet, because unfortunately, I see a civil war coming to my country and not only in the whole of Europe… Not to mention that I see this taking place in America.

The Aegean and some cities of Greece, my dear Precedent, will be lost. The Turks claim them with the illegal flights trying to make them theirs. They want to take our islands and their riches. They want 25 islands! They almost achieved this with Imia where an unprecedented term was created, the “gray zones”. They are not to be trusted… I don’t know if you have ever been in Greece, but I am certain that you will fall in love with it… Especially the Aegean. You will not find anywhere the blue of its waters. The warmth of the people that live a simple life and their hospitality too… The air you will breathe will make you so happy because it is the air of freedom. It has the independence of the twelve Olympian Gods.

To start with, my dear President, in Greece, with 7.000 years of history, in every island, mountain, or city of Greece your walkthrough, you will see something ancient, something that reminds everyone the long history of this country. Something unique. Each city has its own history, each mountain and a god, each stream its own freshwater, out trees are not artificial as is the case with Florida. No… They are trees that have existed for many years… We have vast areas with vineyards, pomegranates, with everything that you can think of and all these are stolen from us and sold to the multinational companies.

Think about the oil we produce in Greece from these trees that have existed for that many years. The extra virgin olive oil which is perfect for our health as it has been proven by many research papers all over the world. There are countries in which people consume oil that is cloudy, with no taste, and without any of the rich scents of the extra virgin olive oil. Why is it, that while nearly 80% of Greeks produce their own high-quality oil, people have to purchase such God-forsaken oils? Because intermediaries arrive from abroad, they purchase the true natural oil at a ridiculous price and mix it with oils from other countries such as Tunisia in order to sell to multinational companies, presenting the end product as extra virgin olive oil. Of course, Greeks keep the natural oil to use it for themselves since you cannot imagine the quantities that are produced each year. And you may be wondering now why they do not sell the oil abroad. The answer is simple. Bureaucracy, lack of support, and the inability of small local businesses to enter the global market. Which multinational company will allow small producers to compete with it by selling the true extra virgin olive oil when the company can mix oils, pass them as the same ones, and as such lessen its prices losing little of its millions or billions? Who will purchase a more expensive oil when he or she is not aware that the cheap, cloudy, tasteless, and with no scent mixture this person consumes for years now is the same and maybe even worse than the oils used in fast-foods?

We produce the most amazing dairy products including the best milk and yogurt all over the world because of our natural resources that allow us to feed our animals. We don’t have to feed our sheep and cows food that is full of pesticides because our mountains are ripe with green that has not grown with the help of no one else but nature. And still, in 2015, we were in the 16th place globally in the exports of dairy products? Why so many tourists that come to Greece each summer, seek the quality of our products and are not able to easily find it?

In Chios, we have the mastic which the Turks are trying to exploit. They pretend that they are able to produce mastic. In the Tsesme area, they planted in recent years about 30.000 plant resins, for experimental purposes. But, obviously, the final product was in lesser quality than the one produced in Chios. Recognizing this worse quality, the Turks avoid calling this product mastic and present their own plant resin as «Sakiz» and as pharmaceutical plants that have a history of 300 years in the area. Certainly, plants that were grown in recent years, can’t be there for the past 300 ones. It’s a matter of simple mathematics.

Why am I telling you all these? Because I am trying to make you see through my eyes that my country is an orphan when it comes to honorable governors that wish to serve this beauty. I told you about the land, let me tell you about the culture. We have the most wonderful theaters, we have the Epidaurus theater which when you visit, you will be able to listen to everything no matter where you are seated, such good acoustics managed to achieve the architects 4.000 years ago. We were the beacon of civilization and now they are asking us to pay for all the things that we offered to the world.

The Hagia Sophia which no one ever paid any attention to it, now they are fighting over. The Hagia Sophia which since 1453 after the Fall of Constantinople, the result of the war over the Byzantine capital whose emperor was Constantine XI Palaiologos, from the ottoman army who’s in charge was Moameth B’, fell to the ottomans. Until 1935 it was a Jami when Mustafa Kemal Atatürk turned the church into a museum. Hagia Sophia is protected by UNESCO and this means that Turkey has legal obligations. UNESCO should be notified about any change in the museum of Hagia Sophia and a new evaluation should take place by the World Heritage Committee, something that has been pointed out from the United Nations.

UNESCO had noted to Reuters that Hagia Sophia is part of the list including the World Heritage Sites as a museum, and that means that the state in which it is has certain commitments and legal obligations. The state has to make sure that no change will undermine the exceptional worldwide value of each site that has been included in the World Heritage Sites list and is inside its borders. For any change, UNESCO should be notified by the state beforehand and there should be a new evaluation process, if necessary, by the World Heritage Committee.

Hagia Sophia was always at the center of the global interest. Greeks should take advantage of UNESCO and forbid any talks that have to do about the change of Hagia Sophia to Jami, something that had been briefly mentioned in 2016, but due to political interests no one paid any attention to such claims, as is always the case, and they were reminded of their patriotism when everything was concluded. There is no doubt that Hagia Sophia is one of the beacons of global heritage. For me, Hagia Sophia should remain a museum, something that visitors from all over the world could see as it was 567 years ago.

All these ridiculous events have troubled me, and this is why I am telling you all these. My country is being sold without a reason and is under threat to which no one reacts. They are deleted. Sure, there are some minuscule reactions, but nothing more than how a child reacts when you are gently shaking it while he or she sleeps. The child may make a small noise out of frustration, but in the end, the child will do as he or she likes, turn the other way and fall asleep again. So, I am asking you, to protect the noble interests of my country.

I know that all these belong to the plans of the New World Order with the purpose of making true the plan of Pantheism. Now, with globalization, all the money of the silly believers will end up in one place. Catholics, Muslims, Christians, will all move towards one path. Religions, my dear President, is the opium of the people and the gold of those that govern these religions from the pope, the cardinal, the priests, the high priests, the imams, and every leader of other religions that manipulate the people because they believe in something to save them. For this reason, the leaders of the religions take advantage of them. And let us not forget what happened approximately a millennia ago with the crusades, that happened in the name of Christ and aimed to free the Holy Lands from the Muslims.

And now we move on to another great betrayal, our Macedonia. The one that was sold. Many years ago, started the campaign that Macedonia was supposed to belong to Yugoslavia… The classic lie of placing statues in Skopje in the form of Alexander the Great along with his horse Bucephalus and every child there is born being taught that he or she is Macedonian when they are not.

Macedonia was and always will be Greek. Macedonians were an ancient Greek race as were Dorians, Aeolians, and Ionians. They spoke Greek in a dialect that was similar to the Dorian and Aeolian. It is obvious that the names Macedonia and Macedonians are Greek words and their root word means long and tall. The religion of the ancient Macedonians was the same as the religion of the rest of the Greeks. They believed in the twelve Olympian gods that resided in Olympus. Herodotus, the father of history, clearly states that Macedonians are Greeks. Ancient Macedonians took part in the Olympics, where only Greeks could take part. How much more proof is needed to be understood that no one else has the right to be called Macedonian in a country that has the name Macedonia in it aside from Greeks? If they wanted to become Greeks, they should have said so! Macedonia is not different than Greece.

And we arrive at what happened now. They worked for 60 years to steal Macedonia that was freed from the barbarians by shedding Greek blood. Pontians and Greeks fought for a free Macedonia and for what? For larger American bases to be built due to geopolitical interests, for you to rule over the oil market and to make way for silk.

You and Russia along with China, became the same, like little frogs at the feet of the elephant… My dear President. The moment when Cubans, Hispanics, and Mexicans take your names and are called “Los Angeles” or “Cuba City” is not far away. How would you feel if something like that happened? You are trying to create a clean and big America; you are fighting for something bigger. I am part of your movement from the beginning, you understand that I support you. But my dear President no matter how much I support you, I cannot understand how you could let the economy of the country be destroyed by the Democrats and the antifascists. How could you let them destroy so many states? You have every right to take control of your country… If they do not listen to you, take their power away. It is that simple… America was – I place special emphasis in the past tense – a safe country where I nor my family have never felt threatened. This makes me wonder how can a country, where you were arrested for the smallest transgression, now has no one arrested. Especially those that initiate all these riots and damages. It doesn’t make sense my dear President unless there is a plan to stand on our feet again. Let us return to my other homeland. I need a new Greece, where no babies will be left in the hospital because the parents are not able to provide for them, as the New York Times writes – https://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2014/05/20/blogs/20140519GREECE-edit.html

Where no trafficking will take place and no child will be taken to satisfy the urges of every pervert that belongs to the “deep state”. I humbly asking for you to see my home and the Greeks with a more clear mind, not with the mindset of the leader of the world, but with the mindset of the man, I believe you are. Power doesn’t matter, but the mindset does. I know not much can be done by you, but much can also be done…

It is not possible to be free citizens with two homelands that are enslaved and, in the end, not be able to live free. A homeland that gave birth to us and another that raised us, and we love them both. We came to America for a better future. We started businesses, organized ourselves to achieve a better and healthier future. Do not take this freedom away from us. The people will obey everything you will impose. Those who will obey will become slaves, but disobedience is the true foundation of freedom and the slaves will seek it…
