THE EXECUTN OF TWO GAY MEN, WHILE MAY NOT BE SURPRISG, CERTALY DON’T MAKE THAT “ENGAGEMENT” ANY EASIER. IRAN’S OPERATN ALSO IS SEEN AS SENTIAL TO MANAGG THE CHAOS IRAQ AND THE ISLAMIC STATE. WH U.S. AIRSTRIK AGAST THE SUNNI ANTS, ON-OFF (NOW FELY OFF) SUPPORT OF IRAQ’S SHIE (EX-)PRIME MISTER NOURI AL-MALIKI, AND THE POSSIBLE DISTEGRATN OF IRAQ, THIS OPERATN—OR AT LEAST NOT OVERT OPPOSN—IS SURELY OF MORE STRATEGIC IMPORTANCE THAN THE LATT HUMAN RIGHTS ABE. CONSERVATIV WHO FAVOR A HAWKISH FOREIGN POLICY WILL CLAIM OTHERWISE, OF URSE. IN THE TOPSY-TURVY WORLD THAT IS TERNATNAL LGBT POLICS, IRAN’S RERD ON HOMOSEXUALY IS MORE A NSERVATIVE E THAN A LIBERAL ONE.

AND DEMOCRATS AS WELL AS REPUBLINS ROUTELY CRICIZE IRAN’S REPRSN OF GAYS AND LBIANS. BUT THE FACT REMAS THAT WHEN IRAN PERSECUT GAY PEOPLE, NSERVATIV THE UNED STAT SUDNLY BEE ENAMORED OF GAY RIGHTS—AND BASH THE OBAMA ADMISTRATN FOR NOT DOG ENOUGH TO FEND THEM. TH THE ADMISTRATN IS H OM ALL SIS—AT A MOMENT WHICH IS TRYG TO PURSUE S DICEY DIPLOMATIC AGENDA.THE PHENOMENON OF VOKG LGBT EQUALY AS A JTIFITN FOR AMERIN FOREIGN POLICI, WHICH THEORIST JASBIR PUAR LLS “HOMONATNALISM,” HAS BEEN AROUND FOR SEVERAL YEARS. (PUAR MIGHT PREFER THE TERM “IMPERIALISM.”) EVEN AS NSERVATIV FIGHT LGBT EQUALY AT HOME, PUAR SAYS, THEY CHAMPN OVERSEAS—AS LONG AS SERV THEIR TERTS TO DO SO.MOREOVER, SAYS PUAR, AMERINS EQUENTLY IMPOSE THEIR OWN NCEPTNS OF SEXUAL AND GENR INTY ONTO OTHER CULTUR, STOMPG OUT DIGENO WAYS OF THKG ABOUT SEXUALY AND GENR, AND PERPETUATG THE MYTH THAT SEXUAL DIVERSY IS A WTERN VENTN. IRONILLY, BY MANDG TOLERANCE OF “HOMOSEXUALY,” AMERINS N HIB THE TOLERANCE OF FORMS OF SEXUALY AND GENR INTY THAT ARE LONG-STANDG TRADNS NON-WTERN CULTURE.FOR ALL THE REASONS, DON’T EXPECT THE OBAMA ADMISTRATN, OR THE LGBT MOVEMENT, TO RAISE A HUE AND CRY OVER THIS LATT TRAVTY OF JTICE.
