What stretches the limits of hypocrisy is that there isn't a single shred of archeological evidence that the Persians ever owned slaves.

Esther chapter 7:

"3 Then Queen Esther answered, "If I have found favor with you, O king, and if it pleases your majesty, grant me my life—this is my petition. And spare my people—this is my request. 4 For I and my people have been sold for destruction and slaughter and annihilation. If we had merely been sold as male and female slaves, I would have kept quiet, because no such distress would justify disturbing the king."

Yes by the babylonians and it was the Persians who freed them. What is your point?
