21 QUESTIONS ABOUT 1821 INTERVIEW WITH THE AUTHOR-HISTORIAN RESEARCHER THEODOROS PANAGOPOULOS ON VASILIOS TSAKLIDIS

"It's time to find out exactly what happened in 1821. The official history is counterfeit. In today's trendy jargon, it is full of “fake news”! Lies, misinformation, propaganda, justification of the unjustifiable, denial and concealment of the justified. We must not forget that this history was essentially written by the descendants of those who are portrayed as protagonists of the Greek struggle, who governed the country for the next hundred-plus years and had to embellish their ancestors' participation and contribution (fathers and grandfathers) to the revolution, hiding or distorting the truth. Unfortunately, that is how history is written. The common person does not write history. They fight and act for survival and accept the history written by others.

On the other hand, as Abraham Lincoln said: “You can fool all the people some of the time, some of the people all the time, but not all the people all the time”! I am one of the “all” ... Lies have short legs, the truth has a big mouth. “Contrary to light, truth is time,” writes Menander, meaning that with time the truth is revealed.”
