Hassan Rahimpour-Azghadi, a member of Iran's Supreme Council for Cultural Revolution, said in an October 17, 2024 appearance on Ofogh TV (Iran) that "the Sodomites rule the world." He claimed that the two subjects that cannot be criticized in the American and Western film industries are Israel and homosexuality, adding, "because most of them are like that." Rahimpour-Azghadi further asserted that 120-130 members of the U.S. Congress are "officially" part of the "homosexual association," noting that these are only the ones who have publicly identified as homosexual, and the rest will eventually follow suit.
Hassan Rahimpour-Azghadi: "The bombs [that killed Nasrallah] contained cyanide gas, so that if someone was not killed by shrapnel or under the rubble, the cyanide, or the poison, [would kill him].

"[Criticizing] Israel is where American and Western cinema draw the line. You may speak offensively about Jesus, Mary, the Prophet, the Quran, the Holy Book, whatever you want. You must never speak out against two things: Israel and homosexuality. This is because most of them are like that. Did you know that 120-130 American congressmen are official members of the homosexual association. So 120-130 of them officially admitted that they are like this. The rest did not say this, but they will say later on. This is how it is. The Sodomites rule the world."
