An unprecedented attack students from the 3rd primary school were admitted Rethymnonfrom the former member Rachel Makris on the occasion of the publication of the school calendar they made the kids for 2019.

Ms. Makri on November 25 proceeded to this post:

"This diary just came to my mind, Congratulations next time to apologize to the Turks that some of the old barefooted Morias have released your children.Pand a pander in the four rags.And t worried now. "

The answer of the teacher of the 3rd primary school of Rethymnon, Pantelis Giannoulakis, was immediate:

However, Ms. Makri did not stop the attack but simply proceeded to a new position:

The municipality of Rethymno has also taken the place of the whole problem:

"We were surprised, among other things, by the content of your commentary on the album of the 3rd primary school of Rethymnon.Your reasoning is obviously based on the idea of ​​eliminating any monument or historical memory on the presence of conquerors in Rethymnon or elsewhere.

Let us break the Fortezza fortress, the Loggia and the minarets, to clear the Roman fountains and the Turkish sachnisms, as rabbits and martyrs of our servility? For us, these monuments are irrefutable witnesses of the conquests that our place has suffered and the struggles of our ancestors for freedom and independence. Their protection and promotion are inspired by the common decision of the city and its inhabitants to constantly speak with their past, to know it and to respect it as a means of preserving the historical memory, as a vehicle for training the city. Collective identity and as an interpretative vector. a tool of modern reality.

Your open attack of mind and the publication of an incomprehensible commentary at the origin of haunting statements that shock us are the only causes of grief. If you can not understand it, which goes without saying for every civilized person, the need to preserve and exploit the cultural heritage of the place where you live, at least you will not find it. And leave each school community silent to inspire, without hindrance, its students to know the local history.

As far as your comments on rapacity and genesis are concerned, we would like you to know that, sincerely, they leave us intact, like graphic delights with nationalistic nuances, since there is not a square foot in Crete that was not flooded with the blood of Fighters for Freedom and depreciation of the yoke ".
