View submission: Love from an atheist.
The persecution of the Bab, Bahá’u’lláh, Abdu'l-Bahá and their followers by the Persian and Ottoman empires are major points in the early days of the Faith. Bahá’ís are still under attack by some evangelical groups in America but most notably in Iran where it isn’t recognized as a religion but as a political movement that is in cahoots with western powers to destroy the Islamic State of Iran. A good YouTube search will bring up many past and present atrocities.

Sorry... I meant to post this as a reply to the comment made by the friend who wasn’t aware of Baha’i persecution in Iran.

Oh, that. Sometimes as a North American it’s easy to forget Persia and the Ottoman empire are today Iran and Turkey.

How are the Bahai's under attack in America? This is disturbing to see.
