abstract note	"Today dictators across the region deploy similar rhetoric to smear dissidents as foreign agents and justify their repression. Ethno-sectarian minorities, too, have borne the brunt of all this conspiracism. Al-e-Ahmad, for example, characterizes the Baha'i - arguably the most victimized religious minority in the region - as Western-inspired seditionists against the Middele East's 'Islamic totality.' Aslan is silent. Al-e-Ahmad is an anti-imperialist icon, after all."
