The Political Economy of Imperial Feminism: Iran Beyond the Propaganda

The West does not give a damn about women in West Asia. It cries for Iranian women because Iran is an enemy, then sells bombs to kings, bankrolls apartheid, protects dictators, sanctions civilians, and calls the whole rotten business human rights. Iran has contradictions, but those contradictions belong to Iranian women and Iranian society to struggle over — not to Washington, NATO, or the white ruling class. Real internationalism starts at home, against the empire that turns women’s suffering into ammunition.

Ultimately, this crisis reveals the Gulf's wealth is a tool of empire, not liberation—a stark reminder that war and capital are inexorably linked.

Tripwires of Empire: The Gulf Monarchies, the U.S.-Israel War on Iran, and the Crisis of Imperial Security
