A polemic on occupation, sexuality, and violence in Iraq

Combining the forms of a khutba, a charge sheet, and an anti-imperialist manifesto, the book presents homosexuality as a public threat introduced during the American occupation of Iraq. Its account concerns men accused of homosexuality and the surveillance, seizure, torture, and killing they face at the hands of militias and informants. The framing links claims about sexuality to occupation and political violence, making the book a polemical treatment of these subjects rather than a neutral overview. Originally published in Arabic, it brings together religious address and political indictment in its examination of persecution.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in political writing about the American occupation of Iraq.
  • Readers studying persecution of men accused of homosexuality in Iraq.
  • Readers interested in polemical works combining religious address and anti-imperialist argument.
