Cyrus the Great was one of the greatest kings to have ever lived. He also was the first to bring the idea of the Human rights. This man was also mentioned in the Bible. I have respect for this man truly a man of honor.

Yes. The Shah gave people money to name their children pre-Islamic Persian names like Koroush. The mullah fucks did the opposite, encouraging Iranians to give Arab names. Clearly, the Shah was great and had a true respect for Koroush Kshayathiya! Too bad the mullahs took over and ruined everything.

AND now their descendants are named 'Patrick', how much of an ancient Persian name

I wonder if Cyrus the Great ever converted to Judaism, I know King Nabuchodonosor of Babylon converted. I have good hope to believe he did convert, but if he didn't then he didn't, God's will be done!

He isn't their only descendant. Besides, I'd rather have a clean-cut, cultured, wine-drinking Persian in a fine dress suit with a Hiberno-Roman name than a bunch of Arabized Mullahs.

I know, I never said he was born a Jew. All I said is that I have good hope to believe that he converted to Judaism in later years of his life.

An Arabized Turk mullah ruling over Persians. Even worse.

Azeris are Turkicized Iranians, though.

Indeed, he was one of the greatest Kings in the world.
