Focus news agency reported<\/a> few days ago about a petition taking place online. The Bulgarian media has republished that information, including providing a link to the petition.<\/p>\n

What worries me, and I believe should worry every citizen, is that the petition is against the religious beliefs of some of my fellow Bulgarians – the Turkish minority, which is about 10 % of the total population.
\nWhat worries me even more than the silly arguments in the petition itself, are the reactions of the people, who have signed it.<\/p>\n

It is true, that the petition does not check for multiple entries by the same people, but with different names, however here are some observations:
\n– many of the people, who signed it, are making a lot of spelling mistakes, which means they are not completely literate;
\n– the petition starts with appeal, “it’s high time to put an end to the Islamization of Bulgaria”;
\n– more appeals inside: “Bulgaria for the Bulgarians”, “Let’s put an end to the Muslim religion in Bulgaria”, “Such a building should not be allowed”, “Enough with the Turks”, “Bulgaria above all”, etc;<\/p>\n

I heard from a friend of mine that recently the police did not react to some behavior, related to nationalistic and ethnic issues.<\/p>\n

This all shows that we have a serious problem in Bulgaria. How to solve it, that is the question. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
