This is the last sentence of the article below:

“Just one question about the misreporting and underreporting of events in Iran: why?”

I can answer that. First, there was an attempt to understand and answer at the beginning of the article, in writing the sub-heading of: “If this isn’t evil, what is?”

The answer to the first question, and everyone really is, we are all living in the words of Romans 1, living in Biblical times, the last of the last Biblical times as they have been known.

More and more people daily are given over to their wicked, unrighteous, reprobate minds by God. They have become so dark, so cold, so bitter, so utterly lost, so devoted to evil and in rebellion against God that God is done with them and turns them over completely to their reprobate minds, as He knows they will never turn, never repent, never come out of the thick, rotting, oppresive darkness they are immersed in, wallow in, love and can’t get enough of.

May appear odd, disconcerting, confusing, and frustrating to many, but this is what has happened and is happening daily. In America. All around the world.

It’s all coming to a close, as it’s been known, folks. Time to understand this.

Evil is in love with itself. The origin of narcissism is found in Satan, in all those in utter darkness serving him, the father of lies and delusion.

More and more individuals, organizations, institutions, governments, denominations, you name it, and it’s happening — they are being given over to their wickedness, their love of the lie and deception, their love of darkness and serving Satan, who appears as an angel of light, the most cunning and deceitful, the most seductive of all created things — being given over to the evil they love because God knows their dead hearts, their evil minds and He is outside of time knowing all things, and as such He knows if they were permitted another 10,000 years of life in the flesh they would still hate Him, hate Jesus, hate the truth, hate the light, hate the Holy Bible, and love the evil they inhabit. Thus, they are given over to it. Nothing good appears in them. Nothing.

We need to understand this.

Because this is only going to increase despite all the PR, hoopla, talk, and hope of this amazing, great, incredible, never-before-seen awakening and revival.

It’s only going to get worse. Daily. Not better. Come to understand this. Not accept it by hiding out, living in fear, not speaking up, not spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ, not disappearing. No, come to understand this in order to be that salt, that light required in such a time as this.

This is only accomplished, achieved, and understood by spending DAILY time, NIGHTLY time in all of God’s Word. The whole Holy Bible. Studied, prayerful time within God’s living and active Word. Eat of it, drink of it, dive in, immerse yourself. In God’s Word rather than the dung appearing as news on the glowing screens, or escaping via Netflix, drugs, sex, sports, what have you.

Time to suit up and remain suited up in the whole armor of God and march forward in this escalating spiritual war. Not hunkering down in a foxhole pretending it’s not happening, or joining the deluded in thinking it’s going to get better and be how we would like to imagine it, rather than learning and believing how it is and will be according to God and His inerrant, infallible, unchangeable Word.

Time to put the world’s 20th and 21st century Babel, delusions, seductive imaginings and philosophies, psychologies away and know, abide in, believe, and live within and live out the whole of God’s Word faithfully, obediently for such a time as this.

The Underreporting of the Iranian Regime’s Crimes

If this isn’t evil, what is?

April 9, 2026

By Hugh Fitzgerald

Reprinted from Frontpage Magazine

This past week offered more examples of the Iranian regime’s criminal behavior. But they have not received the attention they deserved. Meanwhile much of the world’s media chooses to focus on Israel’s nonexistent crimes. More on this phenomenon can be found here: “Too Many in the West Still Look Away — Even as Iran Further Brutalizes Its Own People,” by Micha Danzig, Algemeiner, March 31, 2026:

Start with three facts from this past week.

Not rumors. Not slogans. Not social media noise.

Facts — reported in mainstream outlets, documented by international human rights bodies, and, in part, reflected in the regime’s own conduct and admissions.

First, a 19-year-old wrestler — Navid Afkari — was executed by the Iranian regime after a trial widely condemned by international observers. Hung. Killed. His crime: protesting.

Second, officials tied to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) advancing frameworks where children as young as 12 can be integrated into war-support roles — patrols, logistics, internal enforcement. Not speculation. Not anonymous leaks. Positions reflected in both external reporting and Iranian media.

Third, multiple independent investigations — and mainstream media reports — documenting the systematic use of rape and sexual violence by the IRGC and Basij against detainees, particularly protesters, as a tool of repression.

Stop there.

You don’t need embellishment. You don’t need a fourth example. You don’t need a roundtable parsing “context.” What you need is to understand what kind of regime produces all three of these facts consistently, predictably, and without apology.

Because in the Islamic Republic of Iran, these are not aberrations. They are not excesses at the margins of an otherwise functioning system. They are the system.

Authoritarian systems do not need to announce what they are. They demonstrate it. Not in their slogans — which are often framed, for many Western audiences, in the language of justice and resistance — but in what they do to people, particularly their own citizens.

For 47+ years under this Iranian regime, the pattern is direct and repeatable. That is not hyperbole or metaphor. It is a description of how the Iranian regime operates.

And yet — and this is where the second scandal should begin — this regime still receives the benefit of the doubt, if not outright support, in significant parts of Western discourse.

Watch almost any show on MSNBC or CNN and you can hear it happen in real time.

The language shifts. It hedges. Or it flips into outright advocacy.

Iran becomes “complicated.”

The regime becomes “reactive.”

We are asked to believe that the Islamic Republic is not itself aggressive, but is merely “reacting” to those who would harm it — the United States, Israel, and the Gulf Arab states that host American bases. It does not oppress its own people, but only “reacts” to street protests inside, or military attacks from outside, that would bring the regime down.

The willingness of large numbers of people in the West to accept the Iranian narrative, to ignore the Islamic republic’s crimes against its own people and its warmongering throughout the Middle East, to continue to see Israel as the threat to peace and stability in the Middle East, will someday be written about as we now write about those who during the 1930s made excuses for the Nazi regime and believed it best to throw Czechoslovakia to the wolves at Munich in order to obtain “peace in our time,” or about those who accepted Soviet propaganda about the building of a brave new communist world that would bring prosperity and economic equality, even as millions died in manmade famines such as the Holodomor in the Ukraine, and more millions were executed or condemned to slow deaths in the labor camps in Siberia.

In Iran, 36,500 people were killed, and hundreds of thousands wounded, by the authorities for the crime of participating in unarmed protests last January. Executions continue for anyone found to have taken part in protests or for having praised them online. Twelve-year-olds are now being encouraged to take on war-support roles, including logistics, patrols, and internal enforcement of the government’s rules. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and Basij routinely use rape as a weapon of oppression, to terrify women and girls who take part in protests. But none of these atrocities have received the attention in the world’s media that they deserve. The media instead focuses on Israel’s strikes on what are routinely and wrongly described as “civilian buildings,” which turn out to be IRGC command-and-control centers, ballistic missile stores, missile factories, nuclear facilities, and Basij barracks.

Just one question about the misreporting and underreporting of events in Iran: why?
