Did you know that Cyrus is mentioned in Quran as Dhul-Qarnayn, the just and pious ruler? So please stop blaspheming against God. If you think that Islam appearad with the Last Prophet, you are displaying your ignorance. Please study Islam, do research, acquire wisdom, and only then utter the words that could be witnesses against you on the Day of Judgement!

[desertlight1001]

[infidel94]

i wish Cyrus didnt free jews!!!

[FezAvesta]

Islam is the religion for idiots who like to see the world through words of a book and not with their own eyes.

I am a Zoroastrian, does that mean I should tell you to be one? Does that mean that your religion is bellow mine?

Islam was spread by the sword, and will never attract any people towards it by force.

If it is such a great, noble religion then why did they invade Persia nearly 1100 years ago? Why did people who didn't want to convert get raped and killed?

Fools.

[desertlight1001]

@FezAvesta well with all my respect to u I think u r wrong because islam at least makes it folowers to be honest and clean but ur relegen is the most dirty one the the mankind knew through history. urs dont allow people to wash their bodies by water also u show the death bodies in the public and its allow to have sex with ur mother and sister this is what ur relegen says

[joey143anna]

@FezAvesta isn't it persia was also a conquerinq nation? Remember xerxes, burned greece to the ground, the greeks referred persians as uneducated barbarians, why is it all the bad vibes goes to arabia? You claim islam as barbaric but you never viewed persia, ironic....

[fjord1000]

there's no doubt that Cyrus was a great king..i respect him very much as i respect prophet Muhammad...Muhammad was a last messenger of Allah maybe Cyrus also a prophet that Allah had gave him a revelation to freed the Jews and built them a temple in Jerusalem..who knows right?king is also a messenger of God..same as prophet..so can u see my point here Iny746?

[amirabbas12]

fuck islam

pesians we free the jews we wrote the first rule of freedom and right of human even between man and women

[fjord1000]

Islam is the religion for all mankind..

[fjord1000]

u all have to read more about the history of prophet Muhammad..he also seems to have the same charcter as Cyrus the great...also u all have to know more about Islam in the southeast asia especially Malaysia...we here are not as bad as u think about Islam is...open up ur mind..and plz dont put hatred to some religion becoz of the bad act of his followers...

[lny746]

@fjord1000 Eh Mohamed was a child molester and murderer, how stupid are you to compare a criminal like mohamed with a king

[fjord1000]

plz dont be very prejudiz to Islam...not all Muslim are arabs and not all arabs must be muslim..Islam is a religion of peace..it is a universal religion,not only conquered by a single nation..me myself are not arab,but i respect others religion as been teached by our great prophet Muhammad SAW..

[TheFavorite1974]

fuck islam fuck all arabs that made our country like today.

[reaperq88]

no need for blind hatred. islamic persia was the centre of the muslim civilization= the world civilization. modern iran is different than islamic persia

[TheFavorite1974]

@reaperq88

we dont have islamic civilization..

we didt have islamic Persia..

islam is barbaric way of life which forced to GREAT PERSIA by fucking arabs...read more history..islam is a cancer in every part of the word. it is an evil cult just like the nazi regime of hitler..but soon we get rid of this shit and we will built again our PERSIAN EMPIRE and you jealous arab can go to your cave..

[reaperq88]

lol. you need to read about history. the only bad incidence was persopolice (it is being exagerrated by islamophobes)

FYI: i am no arab, i am from persian origin with great pridee. now start reading and thinking, jonum ;)

[ravving]

i didnt learn abt him anywhere

[huss666]

trust me Iran is not as bad as u think,the west made it look bad,even when the time of ancients the west always tried to make Persians look bad...dont let the west fool u

[cheapnonsmoker]

"Iran is not as bad as you think, don't let the west fool you". What in the name of God are you talking about? I AM Iranian and IRAN IS MY LIFE. I love Iran more than anything, but I do not like the Iranian government and their policy, BUT this has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with the west!!! Period.

[huss666]

Honestly,Do u live in Iran?,if yes then ill shut up lol :D

[arashm77]

I agree %100...Thank you

[susumu07]

Cyrus would SPIT on what we have degraded into today. Today Iranians are divided and we are our worst enemies. We argue and bitch about EVERYTHING and attach ourselves like stupid dogs to useless foreign political ideologies that destroy our unity and sense of self.

WHAT does it matter in the end, whether we are marxists or capitalists or muslims or jews or atheists or existentialists or avant-garde fans? If we are divided and scattered NONE of it matters. Put it all aside and be IRANIANS!

[susumu07]

If Persians could be warrior people again like Turks, then Turks would FEAR us instead of posting insults on youtube. Enough of this Gucci and Rolex nonsense! Enough of "Irooni" gold-digger girls and wussy mama's boys with mascara and plucked eyebrows. BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL IRANIAN CULTURE of BRAVERY AND HONOR.

Only then is our beauty and wealth worth anything.

Only then will empire once again be ours.

[CloudStrife890727]

I know he saw himself as persian but im glad he was half median to =) Half Kurdish half Persian.

I wonder though what he would say if he saw the kurds and persians now. His both nations in war with eachother and Iran being controlled by muslim extremist dogs while turks and arabs invading the old Media, where his mother mandane came from

[NYcyclingFan]

PersianMarxist do not pay attention to Mongol/turks. They are very jealous of Iranians and Greeks. You two nations (Iran and Greece were in wars) are really great. Your history your culture your mind go beyond your border.

Greeting from USA.

[Xshathrapava]

Let us look at Cyrus the Great from the eyes of third parties! Here is some: 1. Ancient Greek: Xenophon said, Cyrus is the only true god chosen ruler that deserve to be a subject of. Herodutus said: Iranian see Cyrus as the father because he brought not only to them but to the rest of his empire only "good" and no harm.

Modern academic: Stronach from Berkeley said: Only Cyrus deserve to be called "The Great".

In fact many like me believe Cyrus was the God himself.

[arashm77]

Peace and happiness is everybody's right and if there is something wrong in Iran now, it is wrong for all Iranians and we all have to be united to fix it....

[arashm77]

what I suggest is go educate yourself! Read the history and see what exactly happened and how and when the turkish people migrated to Iran and areas around it, that might help you! or read what happened during the " Mashrooteh Revolution in Iran and what Sattarkhan did...he was an Azari hero that always considered himself Iranian....so dont even try!

[arashm77]

I checked these kinds of people's files! and of course they are full of hatred! I am glad that the majority of my Azari brothers and sisters are aware of these kinds of spams!

[arashm77]

First of the claim that Cyrus took the Zoroastrian sign from Egypt!!! is absolutely wrong! Read some history books! secondly, who cares?! You cant deny Cyrus's decisions in freedom of religion and his respect to other ethnicities!

And I also saw some comments that Azarbaiejan is not part of Iran! this is nothing but a racist claim with no historical proof!

[PersianMarxist]

Alexander the Great? Don't you mean Alexander the faggot?

Alexander was a queer Greek whore, Cyrus was a great man who united the world. Achaemenid Iran under Cyrus the Great developed first system of roads, first postal network, first system of provinces, first human rights decree in the world.

Democracy, freedom, and human rights originated in Iran, this was proven by the "Cyrus Cylinder" which is in a British museum. Carbon dating shows it is the oldest reference to democracy.

[dinyar65]

He may have conquered lands and expanded his empire but he was a JUST RULER and respected HUMAN RIGHTS of even his enemies which made him great. And his justness and respect for human rights came from Zarathustra's teachings.

[dinyar65]

Cyrus was following the Zoroastrian cardinal principle of following Good Thoughts - Good Words and Good Deeds. And, therefore he was great.

[bugblood1978]

cyrus was great because of the lands he conquered, zoroastrian principles did not apply at his time.

[mashangian333]

wrong my friend/nobody is still sure that zartosht had been around at cyruses era,and havakhashtare is a simple that cyrus took from egypt and made it hakhamaneshis symbol.

[dinyar65]

Another logical point which goes to prove that Zarathustra was born much before Cyrus is that Zarathustra's times were pre-historical. Whereas we have an uptodate history of who Cyrus was and what he did.

[ilghazi]

when will this documentary be finished?

[PersianMarxist]

I have a better idea, soon the Turks will be moving to East Asia to their Mongol brothers. Your fathers the Mongols came from the East and slaughtered millions of people in the Middle East and Central Asia, the Turks occupy stolen lands.

The Persian Empire existed long before you Turk and Mongol savages can from the East.

Soon we will kick you Turkic barbarians out of Northern Azerbaijan, and Northern Turkmenistan. All of the territory from Tajikistan, to Egypt was part of Ancient Persia.

[PersianSexBomb]

All i can say here is that Cyrus is the greatest

millitary genious in human history, his battles are top ranked in U.S he was also a liberator, not a conqueror.. he really deserves respect,even alexander who acted like an animal and slaughtered people in greece and persia, respected and sometimes even worshipped this great king of kings, cyrus the great. In other words, cyrus was Godlike... !

[MediaWillRise]

@PersianSexBomb Cough, Harpagus was his commander and the one who laid the tacticts, Cyrus didn't do shit. Cough.

[samioa]

@MediaWillRise

Harpagus only helped Cyrus capture the Neo-Babylonian, that doesn't mean that all of the tactics was made by harpagus. Everything else Cyrus achieved by himself. For example the usage of scythed chariots and camels against the Lydian cavalry in the battle of thymbra. And you need to stop your Persian hating bullshit. And please... I hope you didn't mean ''Cyrus didn't do shit'' I could write a whole list of the things he have done, but you probably already know.

[MediaWillRise]

@samioa If you think of warfare, Cyrus didn't do shit. Leaders at that time (most) didn't do shit, it's just how it was. Plain and simple. You do know the conquest of Asia Minor (Cyrus 2) was all done by Harpagus? He was also the one scaring of the Lydian Cavalry making it easy for the Cyrus and his army to literally buttfuck the foot-soldiers of the Lydians. Aka, he was known for conquering Lydia. Lonia, Phoenicia, Caria, Lycia was also conquered by him.

[MediaWillRise]

@samioa I am thinking of warfare, Ofcourse Cyrus did great things, like human rights and so on, but when it came to war, it was the generals, and the best was Harpagus. The use of earthwork ramps and mounds during sieges was also done by him, which was used by Alexander the great later.

The Scythians ey? Oh, the ones who joined Cyaxares and the Medians you mean?

You do know that Harapagus led the training of Median/Persian cavalry, with the Scythians?

So, Scythians joined because of the Medes.

[samioa]

@MediaWillRise

Harpagus was only Cyrus's advisor but it doesn't mean Cyrus occupied all the lands only because of him... And I do know that the Achaemenids used, Median, Bactrian, Scythian, Persian and Armenian cavalry, But i've never heard Harpagus led the training, And i've read some sources about Achaemenid Cavalry I didn't see the name Harpagus in them. Yes the Medes helped allot in the Achaemenid Empire, but question is why you hate Persians?? You keep spreading hate

[MediaWillRise]

@samioa He was also a General, and his (most likely) closest advisor.

Harpagus led the training in the Median empire, I have too never heard about him leading the one in the Achaemenid empire. But it was the Medes who also managed to unite the Scythians with the Aryans (Medes and Persians). I know when I talk about Medes/Persians I sound like a racist prick, but I am just trying to get the truth out. Many, many people think of the Achaemenid empire as pure Persian

[MediaWillRise]

@samioa While as a matter of fact Medes played a huge role too. I don't remember the source, but it was a battle against the Babylonians, where the Army was literally Half Median and Half Persian. Only Medes (and Persians) could be Generals in the army. And in early stages, the Achaemenid empire was reffered to as Median by Greeks. After it was known that naturally, Persians played a great role, it was called the Medo-Persian empire or the Perso-Median empire.

[samioa]

@MediaWillRise

What you say is true, for example the Immortal rank in the Persian armies only allowed Persians and Medes, which tells us that the Achaemenid Empire had both Persians and Medes. But I don't like when I see Persian hating descriptions in channels like yours, please remove it. Persians has always helped Kurds and stop acting like you guys don't have a country, you have ''Iran'', Iran is not only for Persians it's for all Iranic people. That's why its called Iran.

[MediaWillRise]

@samioa Yeah sorry about that too ;) Lots of anger, ey? :D

But we both know that Iran puts Persians higher than Kurds ..

Kurds aren't even recognized in Iran, they got 1 TV station, and a centre for Kurds. They don't even have an university for a Kurd ..

They changed it's name from Persia to Iran because preety much everyone (Persians, Kurds,Balochs and so on) called it for Iran. It was only Europeans and such who reffered to it as Persia.

[samioa]

@MediaWillRise

That's because of the government, when we get a new government Iran will be more fair.

[MediaWillRise]

@samioa True, but I am still hoping for a Media, but I want it to be close to Persia, preety much like an union.

We would rule the Middle East ...

[gorgealaki]

@MediaWillRise listen my brave Kurd brother, the Persian empire ruled the world because we were united. we were ONE COUNTRY. if we ever chose to go our seperate ways, disagreements would rise and both countries would fall. Think deeper please.

[MediaWillRise]

@samioa With what I just said, that we are not even recognized, therefore Iran can't be our country.

But a Kurdistan/Media would most likely be Persia/Iran's greatest ally in Middle East, who could stand against the Aryan?

[MediaWillRise]

@samioa I also want for Medes today to know that they werent weak, that we with out brothers and sisters (Persians) did great things. When we think of our history we mostly look at Median Empire, we do not look at the Achaemenid empire which our forfathers supported and took a part of.

And again, I am sorry for sounding like a racist prick when I speak of relations between Persians and Medes.

But remember, I always see Persians as my brothers and sisters.

[MediaWillRise]

@samioa And you do know that Kings and Leaders (Prime ministers, presidents and so on) do not lay the plans or anything. As an example, WW2, Winston Churchill literally got all the credit, but what did he do other than drinking a bottle of Vodka everyday? While people like Bernard Montogomery (leader of the Allied forces after 1942, or something like that) preety much did everything, but barely gets any credit.

[morfo1010]

The gratests king ever, if you doubt yourself, ask to Alexander "the great"

[havrefot]

but i am proud of PERSIA.

[havrefot]

HER??? its HE!!!

[Balloons4us]

Her here is in reference to Persia for your info. Yes, her!!!!

[Mobarezi007]

why do you think its called motherland?

[Khyamo]

Make you proud to be Persian.

[esip4life]

one thing i will always remember is that ANCIENT PERSIANS WERE THE GREATEST NATION ON EARTH AND THEY DISERVE RESPECT

CYRUS THE GREAT WAS A PEACEFULL MAN WITH PRIDE AND LOYALTY AND NO ONE ELSE DISERVES MORE RESPECT THAN HIM

[Lawrence2323]

Does that mean its historical reality? I think you missed the point. I am Iranian, but I don't fall for ancient propaganda.

[adehghan]

political propaganda, im persian too, u asshole, people like u dont deserve to live in America! cyrus ruled 2000 years ago, he was a conquerer just like romans and greeks, but he also did many things! but lets look at islam, they forced their religion through out the whole middle east, and its ruling so many countries to this day! i call that a political movement not a religion, its really surprising to see bunch of piece of shit written on a paper, call it a book sent from god!

[Lawrence2323]

He entered into Babylon with peace, the same way George Bush entered Baghdad with peace right? Give me a break. When Cyrus entered Babylon, which was riddled with political chaos at the time, he faced fierce resistance according to Herodotus. The only reason Cyrus was able to capture it was because he diverted the Euphrates so his troops could enter the city by way of the riverbed undetected by the people who were engaged in a religous celebration at the time.

[illumeelflord]

Beyond the shadow of a doubt your words show your jealousy.just look again that such an ironic thing you have said.you compared Cyrus the great with a crazy man.one of them has been praised by many history professors and the other one has been criticised by all the people.so you just silence and don't try to explain about my ancestors.

[Balloons4us]

Lawrence2323 you do understand that Herodotus of once Persian terroritory city of Helicarnasus, was anti-Persian right? So don't take his word as the final truth. Cyrus the Great was a true military and political genious. He used the tactic of entering the city by digging under the gate and flooding it with water to enter it, and he chose that Babylonian holy day when they were all drunk so no blood would be spilled. Cyrus kicked out the tyrant of Babylon like Saddam Hussein and all slaves free

[mashangian333]

balloon-he emptied the river and drainned it,which was comming through the city of babilon then entred the city from under the walles and once in they oppened the city gates,and even herodot said that cyrus was an exseptional king,I wrote you this becouse I feel you have good knowledge of cyrus the great.
