      No, it wasn’t the Persians, as “Persian” wasn’t even a thing during Proto-Indo-European times. It’s similar to calling them “Russians” or “Germans” or “Swedes”

            Aryan is a loaded term to the westerners. It’s like saying Swastika is a loaded thing in the West. In the east millions of hindus/buddhists use swastika as a symbol of devotion to god/karmic cycle for 3000 years. Our marxists journals and marxist historians always write about aryan migration and etc. They themselves wrote in the ancient sanskrit that Northern India is Aryavarta , why should I change my history for a man living in other side of the world genociding jews.
