Denying Thermopylae - taken from the Newsfeed section

[Et tu brute]

Iranians writing articles relating to ancient times constantly use sources subjectively presenting them as credible when it suits their point of view and tottaly uncredible when it doesnt.They impose modern political interests on their judgement of history.When a Persian is presented as a great man the greek historians are right on the money and when another persian is presented as an unsavioury charakter the greeks must be wrong? Nomatter what the writer thinks Herodotus in my view in Polymnia presents the Persians and Xerxes as a Great Empire with all the negatives and positives it inherits.And it is the Greeks of course view as Herodotus is one but we consider him a Persophile.

Couldn't have put it better myself
