I am deeply sorry you feel this way, Palio.
Did Isaak ask to have 50 Grey Wolves batter him to death, in his own country? If he did ask for it and it was his "own fault" as you say ... ask yourself
why he made such a sacrifice?
And yes his cousin Solomos was consequently emotionally affected by the battering and symbolically tried to lower a
foreign flag ... maybe he heard warnings, maybe he didn't ... it was chaotic ... and I'm not even sure Alkin called out to him before
cold-bloodedly shooting him.
Afxentiou could have come out of the cave when the Brits called him (like the
rulers they were) ... but he stood his ground and was burnt alive.
Were all our heroes
stupid, palio?
