Question:

A question about 300 the movie,the idea and the symbol..read this and answer please.?

Do you think persian kings told their people" we, the greatest superpower in the world, will invade Sparta to control all of the trade in the Mediterranean because we are a greedy bunch and because we can, and because our leader is a mad idiot who wants to continue the mad war of his bloody father"?
Or do you think they said " Our God leader who receives direct divine inspiration from heaven will lead us in a winning and just war against the evil and barbaric Spartans. We are the good, and the Spartans are the bad and if you do not believe that you are an unpatriotic filth"

Do you think a Persian citizen then could ever believe that he actually belongs to the a greedy super power? Do you think he/she would ever consider that maybe the Spartans, their religion, their customs and their values aren't as bad as everybody says? That maybe their stand against a super power despite their weakness makes them some form of heroes?!!
Doesn't the past shed light on the present?

if you mean film. spartans are more idiots. when leonid first time killing persian diplomat he turns and look to his wife and when she answers only then he hits him. really spartans were like fashists they killed any child who wasnt so perfect as they wanted and what about that times. if king is winning everyone will follow him like Alexander.
