Wonder Woman is a hero only the military-industrial complex could create – Mondoweiss

Wonder Woman is a hero only the military-industrial complex could create – Mondoweiss

 

" 'Feminism' serving the military-industrial complex

This much-praised Gal Gadot vehicle–seemingly about a peace-loving superhero, Wonder Woman, from the DC Comics
stable–is actually carefully purposed propaganda designed to force-feed
aggressive western military intervention, dressed up as
humanitarianism, to unsuspecting audiences.


In short, this is straight-up propaganda for the military-industrial
complex. It would have looked and sounded identical had it been scripted
by a joint team from the Pentagon and the Israel Defense Forces "

 

Wonder Woman with her allies--"the humane members of the world
community, represented by the U.S.–Chris Pine is the male lead and
Gadot’s love interest–and a ragtag support group that includes a Scot, a
native American, and a generic Arab, presumably symbolizing 'moderate'
Arab states like Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Jordan," writes Jonathan Cook
