Cham Issue

Cham Issue is very particular for the fact that they were the only people of Europe to be removed by force during the W W II . You will have to read the daily prosecution that Albanians went through in this region since this region was invaded by Greeks.

  1. Daily killings,assasinations.
  2. Land reforms,to expropriate all lawfull owners with ridiculous reasons.That was done under the slogan "the land belongs to the one that works it".Many Chams had to live with their land taken away but they had the right of onwrship of the olive trees.
  3. Mass graves by the Greek army.
  4. The Albanian Muslims were considered second class citizens.They were not allowed to serve in the army under arms.To Albanians soldiers were given to work and open new street.
  5. Sytematic,prosecution,and harassments just because they belonged to a diffrent nationalty and religion.
  6. Albanian Orthodox were treated somehow diffrent and this was done to create division ,so would be easier for the Greek government to rule them. Many of Christian Orthodoxs who dared the government were brutally killed by the Goverment and called by the Greek Church as treators.The example is of Spiro Calluka in Paramithia.He did not hurt anybody,he was only an Albanian language teacher.This has only one name, GENOCIDE. Greek Governmet has to allow the lawfull owners to return to their own houses and their land ,since all other citizens have been allowed to return from the civil war in Greece.That is her obligation under the international law ,and European Uninon,Greece should not be a liability for EU.

 Albanian Anthem

Pledge to the Flag

United around the flag
With one desire and one goal
Let us pledge our word of honor
To fight for our salvation
Only he who is a born traitor
Averts from the struggle
He who is brave is not daunted
But falls - a martyr to the cause
With arms in hand we shall remain
To guard our fatherland round about
Our rights we will not bequeath
Enemies have no place here
For the Lord Himself has said
That nations vanish from the earth
But Albania shall live on
Because for her, it is for her that we fight
