Nope its not... i have seen so many petitions regarding it, even i had to go and explain it to my own wife and make her understand, it's not the end of the world as yet.

well if the Iranians want revenge they'll have a hard time finding the Spartans
they haven't been seen since thermopylae

made me laugh when the Greeks complained about the way that Oliver Stone depicted Alexander as bisexual
talk about irony

Let's not forget that they did the battle of Stirling Bridge without the bridge.

I liked the pictish war paint though
very accurate portrayal of an Irish Immigrant scotsman I thought

Iranians really need to understand that most Americans can't even find Iran on a map ... let alone Persia (clue for most Yanks -- it's not there anymore). Isn't Farsi a brand name for binoculars? Spartans are a bit vague, but most women I've known are intimately familiar with Trojans!

Looks like you're not telling the truth again.

I think folks on this board just need some tar and some feathers.

[marduk]

Irish aren't celts theyre Gaelic

the celts came from Europe Lee
not ireland
we don't need tar and feathers
but maybe a little knowledge might help
besides which
that wasn't a criticism of the peoples themselves but the way that they are depicted in hollywood

and need I remind you thats this the third time now youve accused me of being dishonest and the third time you've been wrong
