Celebrating evil

 Celebrating evil - Bill Wilson – www.dailyjot.com Imagine if during World War II, news of Adolf Hitler’s death circulated around the world and each country sent their ambassadors to his funeral or provided public statementsof sympathy to Germany. This would have been unheard of because back then an enemy was an enemy and a ruthless murderer was sought out and destroyed. Fast forward to today when Iran’s “president” (interpreted “Butcher of Tehran”) has a hard landing in a helicopterand meets his demise. Countries around the world sent their condolences even though they knew what kind of ruthless oppression this man suffered upon his own people and the terror he brought upon others, especially Israel. America was among the first in line. That’s right. Joe Biden’s National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby told reporters on May 20, “President Raisi was responsiblefor atrocious human rights in his own country–the arrest and the physical violence against hundreds of protesters, for instance. And, of course, he’s responsible for the support that Iran provides–or he was responsible for the support that Iran provided terroristnetworks throughout the region, which obviously led to–the support that he’d given Hamas–led to the slaughter of 1,200 innocent Israeli people on the 7th of October. No question this was a man who had a lot of blood on his hands. That said, as we would inany other case, we certainly regret in general the loss of life, and offered official condolences as appropriate.” Why, Mr. Kirby, why? The United Nations, formed to try to keep peace around the world by bringing countries together—think about how well that worked–also jumped at the chance to honor the Butcherof Tehran. A release on the UN website documented the sentiments. The opening statement said, “UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, alongside members of the Security Council, has extended sincere condolences to the people and Government of Iran followingthe death of President Seyyed Ebrahim Raisi in a helicopter accident on Sunday.” Even the head of the UN International Atomic Energy Agency, which has been playing cat and mouse games for 25 years trying to prevent Iran from having nuclear weapons, held amoment of silence ahead of its meeting in Vienna. Seems like the people of Iran are celebrating not wanting “condolences.” Even the Pope sent condolences and “assurances of spiritual closeness to the nation at this difficult time.” What? While Israel offered no official statement, Avigdor Liberman,a member of the Knesset, told The Times of Israel, “there was no doubt that the president was a brutal man. We won’t shed a tear.” Isaiah 5:20 says, “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; thatput bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” Offering condolences, holding moments of silence, and saying you are spiritually close to a brutal butcher is tantamount to saying that evil is good. The world has gone crazy with its appeasement of evil. Call itlike it is: Raisi was evil and many suffered because of him. God has seen it fit to cut short his days. It should be a warning to all like him. The rest is, say it with me…Stupidocrisy.
