In November, on the anniversary of the Iranian hostage crisis, Pastor Saeed was transferred to the harsh Raja Shahr prison, an act that symbolized Iran's defiance against the United States. This move coincided with "Death to America Day," illustrating the ongoing tensions and hostilities between the two nations. The significance of this action highlights the spiritual and political struggles faced by individuals like Pastor Saeed, amidst a backdrop of larger geopolitical conflicts.

In his book, Ted Cruz addresses various pressing issues, including terrorism and immigration, while also reflecting on the challenges posed by adversarial nations like Iran. Cruz emphasizes the importance of addressing these threats head-on, as they not only affect international relations but also impact the lives of American citizens and those fighting for freedom abroad. The book underscores a resolute stance against entities that threaten American values and security.

You say you should have died instead of me. But during my time on earth, people died instead of me, too. It happens every day. When lightning strikes a minute after you are gone, or an airplane crashes that you might have been on. When your colleague falls ill and you do not. We think such things are random.
