Press TV: Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad lauds the Cyrus Cylinder as the embodiment of human values and a cultural heritage for all humanity. Speaking at a ceremony held on Sunday to unveil the Cyrus Cylinder in Tehran, Ahmadinejad said the artifact has been an invaluable yardstick to evaluate the performance of politicians and rulers throughout history. The Achaemenid relic, on loan from the British Museum, will be displayed at Iran's National Museum for the first time in the past 40 years. The cylinder was escorted by a delegation headed by the British Museum keeper of the Middle East collections, John Curtis, to the exhibition site where it will be showcased for the next four months. One of the principles stipulated in the historical piece is that it repudiates war as a means to sustain one's rule, the president said. The Cylinder reads that everyone is entitled to freedom of thought and choice and all individuals should pay respect to one another, he added >>>

کیهان: منشور کوروش را پس ندهید
Shifteh AnsariMon Sep 13, 2010 02:27 AM PDT
"روزنامه کیهان دیروز در گزارشی با اشاره به بازگشت منشور کوروش به ایران برای مدت چهار ماه که با موافقت انگلیسیها انجام شده است، نوشت: اكنون اين سوال جدي مطرح است كه مگر منشور كوروش متعلق به ايران نيست؟ و مگر دولت انگليس، اين اثر باستاني و ارزشمند را از كشور ما به سرقت نبرده است؟ اگر پاسخ اين پرسشها مثبت است - كه هست - چرا بايد اين اثر گرانقدر فرهنگي و تاريخي سرقت شده را به سارق آن بازگردانيم؟!"

This is great !
by No Fear on Mon Sep 13, 2010 01:37 AM PDTWe should be proud of our history whether its 2400 years ago or 1400 years ago. Some might see contradiction between the two, I don't. Every bit of our past history, belong to us, Iranians.
