Haman sent letters with king’s seal to all Persian provinces with the order for
military troops to suppress the revolution prepared by the Israelites not to the houses
of aristocrats, but to the public administrators. Thus, if anybody had come to carry
out the Judaic pogroms, it would have been soldiers. Aristocrats would have been
their chiefs, giving the orders.

It is of interest what happened with Haman’s property when he was executed!
Nobody “plundered” that either, the kings Artaxerxes “just” “… give the house of
Haman the Jews' enemy unto Esther the queen…”, and the queen Esther “... set Mor-
decai over the house of Haman”. It is highly likely that something of the kind took
place in all Persian provinces. After the Israelites wiped out the Persian aristocracy,
they “simply” occupied their domains and got all their treasures. So who were they
going to rob? To make the situation even more clear, it is necessary to specify that the
phrase: “… give the house of Haman the Jews' enemy unto Esther the queen…”
means not only Haman’s palace, but all the property (immovable and movable) of
Haman’s whole clan in which Haman was the elder. This means enormous wealth,
because Haman occupied the second hierarchical place in the Empire and, probably,
was from the king’s Slavonic-Aryan kin, and possibly, had more rights to the throne
than the king Artaxerxes.

It is possible that this was one of the reasons for such “strange” conduct on the
part of the king of the Persians, who allowed the Israelites to destroy his aristocracy
and with genuine “curiosity” wanted it specified how many Persian aristocracy and
where were killed by the Israelites! Maybe, it was advantageous for him to be rid of
possible candidates for the throne using the Israelites. The tsar Artaxerxes (Ahasue-
rus) governed for only fourteen years (367-353 B.C.) and for only a few years after
the events described in the Old Testament. So, he could not enjoy for long what the
Israelites did with his own people.

There could be another reason for Persian king’s strange behaviour. Judaic “fi-
ancées” were taught sexual magic which is the foundation for the Moon cult, the cult
of Black Mother — Kali-Ma. A woman trained in the Black Tantra is able to subor-
dinate a man’s will completely so that he will fulfill her any wish and order, espe-
cially, if this man is receptive to sex magic. There is also the possibility of the pres-
ence of some psychological or mental problems. It is possible that all the above men-
tioned reasons were present in one or another combination and proportion. But one
thing is without any doubt: the Persian king’s conduct fully contradicts common
sense and the traditions of the ancient world.

The confirmation for this we can find in Solomon Lurie’s Anti-Semitism in the
Ancient World 157 in which he tries to justify the cruelty and barbarity of the Israelites.

“… as for the sense of revenge toward women and children, in order to paralyze
the arguments for some specifically Jewish (that of Shylock) cruelty, I will quote the
th
product of the Greek legal consciousness as an example, the law of Teos of the 5
century B.C. (C.J.G. 3044 — Hicks and Hill, A manual of Greek historical. inscrip-
