Aren't they the same ones that forcibly converted the Persians, then followers of Rastafarianism (sp), to Islam, in the seventh century? I say so much the better, let the ROP continue killing each other, they won't have time to kill us.. Isn't that the Roach Motel theory?

I don't think the ancient Persians were Rastafarians :D No Rastas back in those days, mon. :))

They were Zoroastrian.

LOL. That's hysterical! I'm trying to picture it. LOL.
Rastafarianism was started in Jamaica in like the 1930's and reveres Haile Selassie of Ethiopia.

Okay. Now that I've stopped laughing, I think you're thinking of Zoroastrianism.
