“The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history.”― George Orwell
BURNING OF PERSEPOLIS BY ALEXANDER. KAREL VAN MANDER II DELFT.1619. RIJKSMUSEUM. AMSTERDAM
TREASURY OF PERSEPOLIS, LOOTED BY ALEXANDER
History, a victor’s lie, fiction to glorify, eulogize, massacres, ravages, wealth ill-gotten,
Attainments, accomplishments, gallantry of slain, vanquished, unmentioned, forgotten.
Persepolis fortification tablets
The most precious artefacts lost when Alexander burnt Persepolis were the clay tablets that had recorded a millennium of History
Taq-e-Kasra. Ctesiphon, world's largest free-standing brick
Destruction, Ctesiphon's library, we lost a millennium of history, Burning books hamam water heated, they fabricated our history.
IN MARCH 637 A.D THE TAZIAN BURNT THE BOOKS OF THE GRAND LIBRARY OF CTESIPHON TO HEAT WATER FOR THEIR BATHS. THEY SHREDDED THE BAHARESTAN CARPET INTO 60,000 PIECES OF WAR BOOTY, ONE PIECE FOR EACH OF THEIR SOLDIERS TO SELL. EACH PIECE SOLD FOR 20,000 DIRHAMS.
Derafsh-e-Kaviani/Derafsh-e-Jamshid.
The humble composition is dedicated to:
The knights, soldiers, who their life for this standard gave,
Mothers, wives, children, who their fathers, brothers, gave.
Warriors, martyrs so dauntless, courageous, fearless, bold,
Their wives, daughters, harem detained, slave market sold.
Heroism, gallantry, prowess, valour of ancestors forgotten,
Liberty, freedom, sovereignty by the descendants forgotten.
Derafsh-e-Kaviani
Derafsh-e-Kaviani was the national standard. It was made of leather of the apron of Kaveh, the ironmonger, when he went into battle with Fereydunn against evil Zahakk. There were gems inserted in it. It was burnt by the Tazian at Qadiseyeh in 636 A.D and the gems were distributed as loot. Radman Pur i Mahak carried the noble, august standard proudly for the last time when he attacked Baghdad in 874.A.D.
The so called history of Persians is complete falsehood, untruth, concoction, fabrication,
Written by it's conquerors, raiders, depreciators, detractors, enemies of the faith, nation.
Outsider's imposed interpretation of our history is lies, deception, invention, subversion,
Of personalities, events we have our own unsaid, unspoken, unrecorded account, version.
From mist of discourteous, disrespectful, derisive stories, to glean history's true course,
Only to Ateshkadeh, Holy Bible, Ferdowsi's Shahnameh, we must resort, have recourse.
