Take this guy Gerolynatos with a grain of salt... although our resident mafioso has become fixated on him.

All you need to know is that in his book on the Balkan wars he relies on pro-Turkish Genocide-denialist authors such as Stanford Shaw and Justin McCarthy.

This guy was funded by the Greek community to teach Greek to their kids..but who has made a living writing books entirely based on second hand sources.

He has the distinction of sitting in a university chair , made possible by the generous donations of the local Greek diaspora community Vancouver B.C. in Canada, a community which hilariously simply wanted a teacher who could teach their clod kids the modern Greek language, a language which Gerolymatos is entirely ignorant of, a major deficiency for a “scholar” who is hired to focus on Greek historiography.

But this is most important—so we can dispense with the reference—as we know there are always traitors to higher ideals in order to advance themselves.

Basically his slant comes with a strong liberal and liberal bias, as in editorials urging a separation of church and state in Greece, for example and calling for Turkey's admission to the EU! That say it all for this cacademic that the mafioso sucks up.

“urging a separation of church and state in Greece, for example and calling for Turkey’s admission to the EU”

wow, he must really be radical not to want a Bishop decide the course of country, sounds very dangerous. Almost like an American. Greece as a country supports Turkey for EU fyi.

But you probably hate him more because he rains on another parade: he states that the Suliotes are 100% Albanians, as most sources say anyway, yet you retroactively adopted them as Greek heroes through propaganda.
