CHOMSKY IS CONTROLLED. NO DOUBT IN MY MIND. Read the published email correspondence between him and Kevin Barrett regarding arrangements to appear on his radio program. Its a long read but worth it. Chomsky's evasiveness and willful ignorance is overwhelming.
i love noam, but i still dont understand how his anarchist vision would be in any way feasible in the real world. as anti-democratic as it sounds, you need to have concentrations of power to make sure nutcases (of which there are many) dont take over
If you think about it, that's exactly what's ended up happening now; nutcases (namely the state and corporations) have taken over.
Although if implemented the correct way, a directly-democratic anarchist system would be able to structurally prevent any person or group from aggregating unto themselves too much power.
Having power as decentralized as possible and in everyone's hands equally makes it almost impossible to try to rule over anyone else.
Devout Mohamskies wear sweater vests and lay offerings of old, square, thick-lens glasses in front of podiums on Wednesdays, and twin chair sets on Saturday mornings- round 10. They drop by spoken-poetry night at the corner java lounge 3-evenings per week. Their perspective is everyone else's but their own which satifies the guilt component, and they're not sad but they're not happy either; when we die, we're dead.
Chomsky made a serious blunder at the end of that 60's interview with W.F. buckley when he was siding heavily with communist china, trying to say there were hardly any deaths and that they were having bumper crops of food. Who knows empirically how many died in China during those years, I have read from 10 million all the way to 60 million. And there are many books on that cultural revolution talking about the suppression of intellectuals and starvation of people lacking outside modern tech
Well this is just one of the all too many cases on our books of Americanism. The only way that we can fight this terrible debilitating social disease, is by informing the general public of its consequences, by showing young people that it's just not worth it. So, so please give generously to this address: The League for fighting the United States of America, 55 Lincoln House, Basil Street, London, SW3.
Please visit my channel for the unpopular truth about homosexuality.
A person does not need hatred or any kind of phobia in order to acknowledge important differences between heterosexuality and homosexuality. Even non-religious people know this.
The homosexual agenda is not good for anyone, including those who consider themselves "gay".
Homosexual activists, with support from the media, have successfuly framed themselves as noble victims; it's an effective way to push a social agenda.
I can't understand why people who serve as a model are treated as a fraud when being rich. Chomsky could have figured among the richest 50th people of the planet had he courted the several US government and the sionist state of Israel since the late fifties, yet ...
To continue. I assure you he charges nothing for private meetings. At least never charged me. Huge majority of his talks and articles are viewable/listenable/readable on his official site for free. His speaking fees are ridiculously low and he only charges universities and media houses, never heard of him demanding pay for talking to activist audiences. Trying to portray him as some sort of fraud being out for the money is a silly and easily demonstrable lie.
For a most quoted person alive and one of the most quoted people of all time thats nothing. Just goes to show that he does not do it out of desire to get rich. He often points out that hes very well off and frequently argues that people like him are overpaid. Also, what does the fact that he has money have to do with anything. Look at what he does. Thats like saying im a total hypocrite because i advocate anarchism while at the same time owning a company. Pure nonsense.
@al5mnd9trnksdr745bi ah but how much has he given back? civil rights marches, anti vietnam etc, nicaraguan solidarity, the list goes on and on, of course hes wealthy, hes a genius whose hugely in demand
The Top 200 Chomsky Lies Compiled by Paul Bogdanor- I would challenge anyone to try and debunk Paul Bogdanor factually accurate list. Chomsky is a mixed up guy who can intellectualize onging contradictions and at the end he is a net sum zero ! Anyone who would take the time to put him to the test of close scrutiny would know he is full of shit... but he is remarkably good at being full of shit. Well that is how advertising works.. it depends on ignorance... and Chomsky knows that well!
Bogdanor much of the time doesn't even try to disprove Chomsky's points, and much of what he counters is merely difference of opinion. Take his very first point for example, where he quotes Chomsky saying that communist atrocities don't compare with American ones. Debatable to be sure, but he proceeds to give a list of Soviet atrocities without even comparing them to American ones. How does that even meet minimum standards of scholarship?
Interally, of course you're right. Even Chomsky realizes that, as he's said over and over again that internally the US is the freest nation in the world. In terms of international policy however: you look at Central America, you look at Indo-China, you look at the Middle East during the Cold War, particularly during proxy wars, the numbers of dead are not exactly minimal. That's direct military action, that's not even counting direct support of mass murder (East Timor, Iraq, etc.)
There are certainly times where I have been unable to find something which supports what Chomsky says, a debate with Alan Dershowtiz in 2005 for example where he said that Shimon Peres made a very medling, tentative answer in 1996 about the possibility of Palestinian statehood. I have yet to find a source saying that's true. If you find it, do send it to me.
However, that doesn't change the fact that this paper does a very poor job of trying to debunk Chomsky as a systematic liar.
Chomsky is a peerless giant who trains a bright torchlight on the dark alleyways of state violence and repression. The most inspiring moral thinker of our times. He is to the 21st century what Bertrand Russell was to the 20th. To read him is to have one's synaptic connections rewired, to have one's delusions about the benevolence of America dismantled, and to seek to build a world governed by justice and freedom. His work has taken antiwar politics to a wide audience. Thank you for the video.
@MenOfLetters I say this as respecfully as possible, but I tend to come across as more offense that I wish. You're comment sounds like a quote of ridiculous fanatical rhetoric which Chomsky would quote. I used to be caught up in his world view, indeed it was very comfortable to find some explanations for evil in the humanity when I thought humans are good and for some strange reason, to feel that I had seen beyond all the propaganda and found that my own country was evil.
@MenOfLetters But no moral questions are black and white and similarly human beings are not so simple either. There is evil, selfishness and cruelty in all of us and there is benevolence, kindness and love in (most) of us. American politics is stupid, the US government seems run by patriotic lunatics and their policies governed by stupidity and piousness. The response is not more piety or indignation, but rationality. Rationality makes things much less black and white than Chomsky's commentary.
I concur that our discourse ought to be govened by reason. Sadly, your comment is mentally defective. Untill you have shown what in this video is "black and white" or why it is wrong to oppose nationalism, your comment will be dismissed as the product of a mind intoxicated on neocon imbecility. I say that as respectfully as possible.
@MenOfLetters Ha, I am certainly not anything near a neocon and I despise nationalism. But you have demonstrate quite nicley a defect of this paranoia extant in Chomskyan politics- there is an excuse for why other peopple disagree- 'because they are mentally intoxicated and trapped in an illusion of propaganda' e.t.c. I wasn't refering only to this video. Chomsky is difficult to disagree with, because he is right on facts, but his inferences amount to rhetoric without much content.
You show very advanced signs of cognitive debilitation. You promised to show me where Chomsky was flawed. Instead you now admit that you can find nothing flawed in this video. Until you actually explain where the mistake is you will be dismissed as a fanboy of Glenn Beck.
@MenOfLetters Ad Hominem, where would Chomsky be without it? Read what oldstock1607 said, and try and find for me where I said that I can find nothing flawed in this video, because I can't see where I said anything of the sort. You are demonstrating perfectly what I mean by a 'black and white' view of things which betrays nothing other than your ignorance and stupidity. Anyone who disagrees with you clearly is noecon, or mentally defective. That is not a rational approach.
How many times were you dropped on your head by your mother? It's fractured your skull. You claimed to find fault with Chomsky. I challengd you to say what. You said that you could find none in this video which demolishes your imbecilic assertion. Either state what the fault is or take your imbecility elsewhere. I say that as respectfully as possible :)
@MenOfLetters Impecable deduction- I disagree with you therefore I must have been dropped on my head when I was a baby. Just because you are incapable of reading, and because I refuse to share your 'reverential', 'shining light' 'goodness and truth' 'holy Chomsky'... blah, blah, bullshit piety, and you are unable to read anything that disagrees with your religiousness, I am an imbecile. I explained what my issue with Chomsky was, namley his over-simplifications and his misleading rhetoric...
Take the neocon penis out of your mouth you numbskull. For the last time: Either state what is wrong with this video or go and spread your bottom cheeks for Glenn Beck. Got that?
@MenOfLetters Let me make it clear for you, seeing as you are blinded by the fact that you have arrogated your judgement to the sole arbiter of justice and truth. Chomsky is factually correct, and this is what I have said. You see this and your puny intellect and single mindedness jumps to thinking 'what is this person on about? Disagreeing with Chomsky= imbecile, making statements which I am too dull to comprehend= imecile'. There is a distinction, which really is not terriblyh complex...
@MenOfLetters Between one's facts being correct and one's interpretation of the facts being correct and thus, as the point on which I placed specific emphasis, on the correctness of the endless, indignant rhetoric one produces. Chomsky is an intelligent person, and I can't fault him UNTIL he gets to the 90s or roughly there (don't use the older Chomskyan logic of omiting that qualifying appendage), at which point Chomsky becomes philosophically inept and looses general cogency...
@MenOfLetters Now, the issues are complex and require individual attention, but I am prevented by time and space. Chomsky talks for hours and days to try and contend that America is evil, so a rebuttal is a tricky manoeuvre, especially if one is, as I am, contending that his universals are incorrect whereas his particulars contain certain degrees of truth. I have, though, absolutley no intention of debating with someone with such pretenses of pious rationality, and who lacks any legitimate...
@MenOfLetters demonstration of such an interest at all. Instead, you are only interested that everyone agrees with you and that you beat away anyone who doesn't with startling absurdity. I would love a rational debate, as you say you would, but I see no indication that I could have one with you. I might as well try and debate with a zealous religious person or an atheist, I know reason scarcley prevails against dogma. (In the end, the only way is if reason itself becomes a dogma...)
@MenOfLetters On that basis I apologise for my vitriol and it's inevitable bad taste and irrationality (such is the case with all vitriol, as Chomsky certainly wouldn't agree for he is infalible in his 'clarity', or rather obfuscations dressed as clarity) That said, I won't pretend I respect you. I know what you're going to say and think and quite frankly, I don't care. There's no use debating with you. What is to say that posessing truth makes one a good advocate. Reason convinces the rational.
Many thousands of comments later and you still have not stated what specifically Chomsky is wrong on. I've never met one so intoxicated on syllogistic quackery. You seem to have toned down your rhetoric somewhat having realised that invective will get you nowwhere with a superior mind. Good for you. Till you furnish evidence for your witless charge I will put you down as a politically innocent knave. To compare atheism with religion is the height of foolery. Go watch Fox News.
@MenOfLetters I was never trying to get anywhere by being insulting anyhow. In fact, glancing upon what I have written, the only thing I regret is saying that you are 'stupid'. I very much doubt that you are stupid as such, but far too many intelligent people are still ignorant, if only blinder for an ignorance of their own ignorance. You're rhetoric is superior to mine, but you are still caught amongst...
@MenOfLetters the intellectual stupidity of our day, namley a philosophical ignroance which defies belief. For example, the modern atheism movement is a fantastic rebellion against dogmatic, superstitious drivel which ought to be replaced by a love of the philosophical mysteries that accompany existance itself, not a cock-sure dogma which naivley dances on philosophy's grave. It does not surprise me that you find logic intoxicating therefore,
@MenOfLetters so long as you have your arrogance and ignorance. You keep going on about finding one thing wrong with Chomsky, from which I can only assume that there are absolutley no points on which you disagree with Chomsky, in which case you are even less unimaginative, dull and idiotic than I origionally thought. Either that or you seem to think I have abandoned my adherence to Chomsky's politics for absolutley no reason.
@MenOfLetters Anyhow, I have no wish to continue this tit-for-tat nonsense. Men who claim moral perfection and superiority should avoid such trivialities. All this typing is rather tedious. You said pretty much what I expected, I am sure you will do again. You seem to miss the point, that I don't care about your political judgement of me. Perhaps all this tryping would have been better spent demonstrating my point, but I didn't origionally want all this typing with a dogmatic person...
By whom were you clubbed on the head? The concussion has severed your synaptic connections. I dissent from Chomsky on some things of course. I think he is wrong for instance not to sue those who defame him in the interest of free speech. I think rightwing fools ought to be legally disciplined. But I don't insult him as you have. I agree with your views on the New Atheism. I disdain it. I belong to the Old Atheism of Russell and Mencken. You've picked a fight with the wrong man.
@MenOfLetters That said, even I am not impervious to the insult of being called a neocon, or a fan of Fox news. I have nothing to do with the right wing. Please though, amuse me, you are a curious phenomenon.
@MenOfLetters "Chomsky is a peerless giant who trains a bright torchlight on the dark alleyways of state violence and repression." perhaps Chomsky should dress up like the Statue of LIberty.... with lots of makeup...
I've just glanced at what you first wrote to me. I took it for a slur against Chomsky. Why else would anyone suggest that a man wear a dress and makeup? But I gather from looking at your favourites that I misread your intention for which I apologise. You should take care with your own jokes not to be misread. I will remove that comment.
Don't speak to your father in that tone. I know that I've not been the best daddy in the world to you, but I did mount your mother like a donkey and ride her to exhaustion. I miss her. Tell her that she left her knickers in my bedroom. I love you son. Now go watch Glenn Beck and leave the grown ups to discuss geopolitics.
I'm tickled by your wounded ego. Where is the intellectual content of "kiss that ass"? You possess the wit of a schoolboy with a discarded breast implant for brains. Potty mouth kids warrant only a club to the head. Not substantive engagement. Learn to discipline your analphabetic mind or you will be dismembered and eaten for lunch by your betters. You are welcome.
If you took Glenn Beck's penis out of your mouth you might have had the good sense to discriminate between sound criticism and schoolyard cuss words. You chose the latter and got pounded for your imbecility.
If you want a genuine debate, I'm happy to have one. But you will need to formulate your concerns more cerebrally than "kissing ass". Got that? I will strangle the life out of you if you get potty mouthed. Don't pick fights with grown men kid.
I've met people like you before. You solely utilize glib attempts at satire in order to vaguely make a point and when challenged about these attempts, you simply hide behind the veneer which was criticized initially.
By which man were you raped as a child? The trauma has plainly scattered your mind because out of your keyboard tumbles a vast number of fooleries. You seem to have toned down your rhetoric from the swaggering vulgarity with which you opened this discussion. I'm proud of you kid. Abuse will get you nowhere.
Till you state what in this video is faulty or mistaken, I will put you down as a Fox News watching crank wounded by the sight of intellectuals debunking US militarism.
@MenOfLetters You sound like a 15 yr old kid that likes to collect insults that you think are slick. You really should save some of these comments you make here. You will find them really funny when you grow up.
@shananagans5 I thank you for reading my putdowns. I'm flattered that you think I collect them, but I'm afraid I invent my own cutting rejoinders. I intend on taking your counsel and making copies of my polished barbs. Not for my own advantage because I'm getting on a bit. But for the benefit of my own kids. I hope that having gleaned my vituperative powers, you will not dream of picking a fight with me. It won't end well for you. Though I must say that I will enjoy it. Proceed with caution :)
@MenOfLetters freedom of speech is the most important thing we got around here. Any laws regulating that and your going to eventually see abusive repression of speech as a fun new weapon by both right and left. Chomsky said here that determining historical truth is not nearly as easy as determining scientific truth. You just can't totally pin the tail on that donkey. When you start eliminating freedom of speech, your really starting to try and create empirical history
@MenOfLetters Well Jesus Christ, your praise of Chomsky sounds like something right out of the Holy Qu'ran, grand metaphors and all. Don't forget your last prayer of the evening to Mohamsky, peace to Him.
Don't listen to the mainstream media so called "right" or "left" they both attack Ron Paul .. Ask yourself why is that? Because he's the REAL DEAL .. a Real Guy who actually Cares about America somehow got in the Presidential Race .. Are we going to allow the Corporate Controlled Media to convince us that he doesn't have a chance when in reality he's Polling in the Top 3 in all Nationwide Polls?
Nows the time to take back our country from this Left / Right monopoly! Vote Ron Paul 2012!!!
@trunitemare Anyone else would be criticized for speaking outside of their realm of knowledge. I call this "Chomsky Exceptionalism." This has more to do with his status as a left-wing demi-god than it does his knowledge of history.
@oldstock1607 You have no idea what you're talking about.Think about what you just said and think it over, very carefully, and hopefully you will come to the conclusion that what you just said was completely contradictory to what you wanted to say.
@trunitemare I fail to see how anything I've said contradicts itself. Help me out. OR, you could just say that you worship chomsky as a living god, and were angered that some upstart like me would DARE cast aspersions on your hero.
@oldstock1607 Ok, you say "Chomsky Exceptional-ism." You are inferring that he is not being criticized for his "outside realm of knowledge (i.e. history)." But, scholars DO criticize him based on his personal views on foreign policy and NOT his knowledge of history. Huge distinction there. The "left-wing demi-god" status means that left-wingers may not criticize his foreign policy (many do though), because they are in agreement. Everybody agrees with him on history, because he knows his stuff.
You've never heard of ethnographic historical perspective? Didn't not watch the interview either, I'd guess? Chomsky is speaking of his own history, influences on his ideas, etc.
The study of linguistics is obviously highly related to history as well-- where do languages come from, how do they evolve-- historical perspectives; hermaneutics-- understanding historical texts from the perspective of the times in which it was authored. Bible reading is >interesting thu that lense.
That was really enjoyable. Thanks for the upload. It's very refreshing to hear a true humanitarian speak. Loved hearing a historical perspective and Chomsky is right about the parts which do resonate with 'wage slaves' quite naturally ;) Hard labour in workplace not protected by unions, is a dangerous place to work. Employers left to their own 'bottom' line, do neglect consideration of safety of workers. Canada had some union-busting, replaced by a relatively unenforceable "Labour Code".
ISRAEL est un etat terroriste,il a organisé les attentats contre les etats unis les deux tours jumelles du world trade center , ces attentats avaient comme but,de faire porter la responsabilité aux islamistes d'Alkaida refugiés en Afghanistan afin de justifier l'invasion de ce pays qui etait programmée depuis 1979. La CIA et le MOSSAD ,avaient planifié ces attentats ,en designant les musulmans comme les responsables,celà ferait adherer les Européens à un projet de guerre contre l'IRAQ-petrole.
chomsky may be minimalising his importance, but his role as a conduit of ideas, as an analyzer and a thinker is not to be underestimated. he helped me to develope a logic and a way of thinking that supports my intuituve convictions. everytime i read him, or see a clip like this one, he puts a bit of gasoline on the fire inside me. if, in my own very small way, i'm one of the 'heroes' who fight the daily battle, it's partly thanks to him. he's one of the greatest thinker of this time!
@gunnerfan87 thx! your channel looks great! i just subscribed! but i have some wage slavery to do tomorrow (actually today, it's 5am here) so i'll go thru it more thouroughly next time.. always good to find a brother in arms! maybe we can discuss some things in the future..
you gentiles are Pathetic Always take some jew and make him god or Messiah just like the jesus and kerl marx and know this noam chomsky did you ever wondering why is this all your biggst gods and messiah and your intellectuals from right and left are jewish and you wonder how we the jews call are self the chosen people dont diss this
comment in 100 yreas from know your kids will things that holly histroy just like your Fathers Though't even the arebs belive in a jewish idea of god

@counterreason. Since you wish to judge my emotional state, let me give you some data to help in your assessment. My blood pressure is currently 110/68 and my pulse is 71 bpm. This is quite consistent with my pulse over the last month. I'm guessing that you are more stress than I. Care to share?
@shishkabobby Not even a tiny bit interested in your attempts at being clever.
If you don't understand how a person's behavior can be used to judge their emotional state and why it is that I ought not to trust your claims, then I can't help you make sense of that. Some things are so basic that if someone does not understand them, there is nothing further to be done.
As for your emotional state, I see that you are working really hard to convince me of your calm. That makes you very believable...
@countertreason Why don't you just respond to my questions? Lets assume that you are correct and that I am a foolish idiot for actually reading Nature and physics journals about global warming, because the authors are all involved in some conspiracy that is obvious to people of your excellent mental character. Assuming that, please provide at least one reference that I should read in order to approach your exalted mental state. If you can't provide a reference for your position, shut up.
@shishkabobby I would respond to your questions is you were not getting sidetracked in an attempt to be clever. Take responsibility for your own actions, you fucking hypocrite. I never talked about global warming, where the fuck did that even come from you blithering moron? What the fuck just happened? You didn't like that I was insulting someone, that is what you wanted to talk to me about. Stay on subject. How did you get so fucking retarded? "Respond to me", get your fucking head straight.
Honestly, I am not even too fond of profanity, but I use it for the rhetorical effect. I find that most of the people on youtube who are fanatically supporting guys like Chomsky and trying to insult and terrorize can be intimidated really easily. If people will not engage the argument, but instead try to claw and gnash their way to an emotionally satisfying conclusion, I just start swingin' on 'em.
I hope you know you're supporting a foreign policy heavily influenced by greedy corporations and is powered by the absolutely despicable Military-Industrial Complex.
@theoldspicestuff See, like this for example. Tell me everything you know about the 'Military-Industrial complex', companies involved and to what departments of government they are involved with. Explain to me how it is subverting our democracies and what rights of yours have been infringed upon. Tell me which greedy corporations you find especially repulsive and show me what they did with their profits. Have you ever seen a financial statement before? Do you know what companies need?
Easy. Look up "Robert Reich Military-Industrial Complex". Another great work is by Mr. Jeremy Scahill, an investigative journalist who has documented almost everything there is to know about the private contracting corporation "Blackwater". This latter corporation steals people's tax dollars, degrades the service of the troops over there, and everybody on board, including Erik Prince, is living well.
I will only apologize for this if we mean apologize in its traditional Greek sense; apologia. I will certainly defend everything in our society and invite you to leave if you don't like it.
One more time, can you explain it to me or not. I can explain myself and my opinions because what I read is comprehensible and understandable. Can you say the same about your interests or not?
Yes - I simply want corporations and its ilk's influence minimized when it comes to issues such as foreign policy. Blackwater, a private contracting corporation, quite literally steals tax dollars and does not abide by the rules of law.
So, in essence, what can you say about a foreign policy that is so heavily influenced by such corporations?
@theoldspicestuff Explain your contentions. All you are doing is making claim. Tell me how much they received, what their mandate was and how they failed to live up to their contractual obligations or did not deserve the amount of money that they did. Explain that.
Until then, all you are doing is making claims that you are incapable of rationally supporting. You have failed to prove the extent to which corporations influence government.
countertreason is a retarded moron who's only occupation in life is trolling on videos about comrade chomsky ROFL thats all he does on youtube..seriously ROFL,one time he mentioned that he attended one of comrade chomsky's lectures..my guess is he posted an idiotic question to make an "argument" and instead had his sorry ass destroyed and now he seeks "revenge" ROOOOOFFFFLLL what a pathetic moron
@dpapaioannow See, this is a perfect example of one of your fellow cult members. If someone this stupid appeared at any gathering I showed up to, we would censor him and try to convince him that he is (a) inappropriate in his speech, I remember he mentioned all sorts of body parts and functions last time I argued with him and (b) he is a crazy radical. But none of you are going to say shit to him, because that would sabotage cult solidarity. It is disgusting.
As a pathetically trapped "intellectual", you show thinking of breathtakingly limited dimensions. There is 'genius' in music, visual arts, even physical/athletic performance. But buttfuckers like you are like telescopes--you see this almost-invisible star, and you think you see all this meaningful detail. But everyone else sees the sky in toto. You don't see the constellations, or ANYTHING else but for one pissant spot.
@Lamboragon I made a joke which carried no political undertones, and you somehow came to the conclusion that I'm a pro-big government liberal when I've been a registered Republican for my entire life.
@Lamboragon Sorry didn't know you were gonna get all philosophical on me there.. by free I mean no personal debt. What are you saying is a myth? His work is regarding bureaucracies correct? I see the problem of bureaucratic and centralized power over industry and services, I've had many conversations on the topic as it's a common complaint. I don't see giving up the system for capitalism (if thats what you're implying) as the solution though as much as reforms to the current system.
glad you're happy.. clown. Are you even making a point here or just rambling like an idiot? What do you mean by hypocritical leftist nut? And why should I feel shame? And why is that amazing to you? Do you have brain damage?
@Lamboragon Its a common myth is it? It's published annually, there for everyone to see and analyze. Quality of life relative to education, life expectancy, access to health care, etc. Common sense really, if people these things they tend to live a better life. They have universal health care at no cost other than the usual taxes... obviously. You actually rationalize inequality while the rich make a killing and call it progress? Unbelievable. Oh, and my education was free :)
@Lamboragon I tend to agree state socialism isn't the best way to go about helping poverty or inequality considering the tax burden it would require in the current monetary system. But on what grounds is smaller government better for the general population? Systems with socialist tendencies like universal health care and policies aimed at balancing income inequality clearly have a higher quality of life for the general population.
I would like to conduct a thought experiment, directed mainly at Professor Chomsky devotee's. Question: How would Professor Chomsky's perspective on the Israel/Palestine conflict change (if at all) if he were to suddenly become convinced of the truth of the Hebrew Bible (that it represents a true revelation of G-d, that the Prophets were true prophets and that the land of Israel, including the West-bank, was in fact deeded to the Jewish nation by G-d)?
@lourak im not sure what would happen. what i do know is that israel is behaving a little like in the old testament by trying to kick non-jews out by violence
@BloodTypeRagu Thanks for responding! Well - I don't agree with you at all, but that, of course, is quite another question. Why not try and take a stab at my proposal?
@lourak hmmm, i suppose chomsky would be basically of the same opinion. he would say israel if it ever wants to find a secure place in the holy land it must do it peacefully, that is, integrate the people living in the lands, whether they are jews or not, then take whatever peaceful measures it required to make israel as pure as possible. i think the key part is PEACEFUL. its hard to blame the palestinians and arabs who have simply lived there for a thousand years. they are basically innocent
I think you are talking about corporatism -- a system in which the state's power to regulate markets is taken over by corporations; in which profits are capitalized, losses socialized; in which monopolies and oligopolies are the norm; in which "private tyranny" ensues. Free enterprise capitalism is by its very nature anti-corporatist. It's a system is which power is most decentralized. To confuse corporatism with capitalism is a big mistake.
@LogicalFlawDetector Free Market is an ideology to keep the working class across the world in hypnotised,distorted ,devalued state of mind. There has never been your the kind of Capitalism you have been fed on.
@LogicalFlawDetector There isn't anything socialistic about modern American liberalism. If this were true, the administration would nationalize everything and force the biggest corporations to distribute wealth to the lowest income families. That's REAL state socialism. Is that what you see? I see a president who followed Bush's foreign policy, caters to corporate ceo's, lobbyists and insurance companies, doesn't raise the tax rate for the richest 1%, and on and on.....
the famous joke he tells at 56:20, about a man who finds a drunk searching under a streetlight who explains that hes looking for a pencil, and on asking him where he last saw it says in his house but that hes looking out in the street because that's where the light is - is a story by Mullah Nasrudin. Sufi wisdom propping up in Chomsky's discourse - cool!
Come to discover a band awakened on our page, ROUGE, between rap and rock, here is an extract of thoughts:
" And yes it is very sad all this, the rich believes and justifies its wealth by the fact whether he? is a slogger, full of ideas and that the profit is the mainspring of it. But is a good doctor the one who loosens the biggest profits?

chomsky is idolised, by me, and i'll be devastated when he is no longer with us, yhink he is 82yrs old now. unbelievable intellectual who has destroyed any who dared to challenge him in any debate.
But yea you can worship capitalism, and thereby worship gaining wealth and commodities all you want. I happen to feel like life is a little more than how much money you have in the bank or what type of car you drive or how big you house is. That is all capitalism teaches people, greed is good, at any expense.
I think life is about bettering oneself and humanity and the world as a whole. And helping people. Capitalism almost makes you do the opposite.
youtube is rife with radical revolutionary marxists ... we need to stop this - we need to kill assange who is an international terrorist who's unmitigated evils have deservadely earned him a similar reputation to osama bin laden, whilst embarking upon this task we should also purge the world of any other leftwards leaning individuals and probably re-elect a solid republican like nixon or bush.

I just want to remind every stupid member of the Chomsky cult that they are no better than those of the LaRouche movement or any other stupid personality cult centered around a rich huckster.
Keep wasting your lives boys and girls, buy another one of his boring, repetitive books and continue to believe he is more than just a mouthpiece for a highly perverted anti-American-fetish.
@belvedere954 This day and age, there really are no great philosopher-types that I have read. I believe the culture is too toxic and deafening. Those of us who are caught-up in western sadomasochism are loud and threatening and ally with sworn enemies while the rest of us are busied with the threat this poses.
Those who I think do make a contribution however? Bernard Lewis is a valuable historian. Samuel Huntington is challenging. Even Jared Diamond. They faced issues we all need to face soon.
@countertreason For months now, almost every Chomsky video I've pulled up has had your trolling at the top of the comments. You don't like the man, and you don't like what he says, yet you're coming back to these videos quite regularly - that isn't usual behavior. Why are you so passionate about deriding the man, and aren't there better venues than youtube?
@xjtbarnesx I swing by these videos every once in awhile just to make sure that you people cant peacefully get off to this perverted shit. I want you to feel guilty and alienated. I want you to recognize what sober and realistic people are going to think of you and say about you if you dare bring to this nonsense into the public arena. I am tired of hearing from fans of Gore Vidal, Noam Chomsky, Lyndon Larouche or any other ingenuous huckster.
@countertreason I, conversely, have had it with the sophistical babble propagated by the likes of Al Gore, Shirley MacLaine, Tom Cruise and Whoopi Goldbrick....I'll trust Academia's voices over Hollywood's multimedia assault on our sensibities any day of the Lunar month.
@chernobylFarms What of the words of the founding fathers of the United States? Of Plato, or Aristotle? Of Adam Smith or John Locke? De Tocqueville or Voltaire? When you refer to academia, do you refer to the people who claim inspiration from the 1960s counterculture, or do you follow the vein of western thought that carried dogmatic European Christian barbarians from a state of poverty and confusion to the most advanced nations (politically, scientifically, etc.) in the world?
@countertreason Anyone who wants to define herself/himself as an American, Russian, German etc. is a person not worth even listening to, a nonentity, 'cause there is no such thing as an American, Russian, German etc. Hence, anyone claiming to be or accused of being anti-American is a nonentity. But one can be an opponent of certain aspects of US domestic or foreign policy. Chomsky is one of the great majority of American, Russian, German etc. intellectuals who are in that category.
Seriously? A fucking Marxist is telling me that I am a nonentity? No matter how many times that idiotic ideology is tried and failed, you fuckers keep reappearing. You better be under 21, because if you have had enough time to learn about this world and you still believe that shit, your fucked for life.
And if you don't know that you are echoing Marxist ideology when you say that "American, Russian, German etc." don't exist, your extremely ignorant.
I found it difficult, but I finally managed to masterbate to this video.

If you think about it, that's exactly what's ended up happening now; nutcases (namely the state and corporations) have taken over.
Although if implemented the correct way, a directly-democratic anarchist system would be able to structurally prevent any person or group from aggregating unto themselves too much power.
Having power as decentralized as possible and in everyone's hands equally makes it almost impossible to try to rule over anyone else.

Chomsky made a serious blunder at the end of that 60's interview with W.F. buckley when he was siding heavily with communist china, trying to say there were hardly any deaths and that they were having bumper crops of food. Who knows empirically how many died in China during those years, I have read from 10 million all the way to 60 million. And there are many books on that cultural revolution talking about the suppression of intellectuals and starvation of people lacking outside modern tech

A person does not need hatred or any kind of phobia in order to acknowledge important differences between heterosexuality and homosexuality. Even non-religious people know this.
The homosexual agenda is not good for anyone, including those who consider themselves "gay".
Homosexual activists, with support from the media, have successfuly framed themselves as noble victims; it's an effective way to push a social agenda.

The Top 200 Chomsky Lies Compiled by Paul Bogdanor- I would challenge anyone to try and debunk Paul Bogdanor factually accurate list. Chomsky is a mixed up guy who can intellectualize onging contradictions and at the end he is a net sum zero ! Anyone who would take the time to put him to the test of close scrutiny would know he is full of shit... but he is remarkably good at being full of shit. Well that is how advertising works.. it depends on ignorance... and Chomsky knows that well!

Bogdanor much of the time doesn't even try to disprove Chomsky's points, and much of what he counters is merely difference of opinion. Take his very first point for example, where he quotes Chomsky saying that communist atrocities don't compare with American ones. Debatable to be sure, but he proceeds to give a list of Soviet atrocities without even comparing them to American ones. How does that even meet minimum standards of scholarship?

Interally, of course you're right. Even Chomsky realizes that, as he's said over and over again that internally the US is the freest nation in the world. In terms of international policy however: you look at Central America, you look at Indo-China, you look at the Middle East during the Cold War, particularly during proxy wars, the numbers of dead are not exactly minimal. That's direct military action, that's not even counting direct support of mass murder (East Timor, Iraq, etc.)

There are certainly times where I have been unable to find something which supports what Chomsky says, a debate with Alan Dershowtiz in 2005 for example where he said that Shimon Peres made a very medling, tentative answer in 1996 about the possibility of Palestinian statehood. I have yet to find a source saying that's true. If you find it, do send it to me.
However, that doesn't change the fact that this paper does a very poor job of trying to debunk Chomsky as a systematic liar.

Chomsky is a peerless giant who trains a bright torchlight on the dark alleyways of state violence and repression. The most inspiring moral thinker of our times. He is to the 21st century what Bertrand Russell was to the 20th. To read him is to have one's synaptic connections rewired, to have one's delusions about the benevolence of America dismantled, and to seek to build a world governed by justice and freedom. His work has taken antiwar politics to a wide audience. Thank you for the video.

@MenOfLetters I say this as respecfully as possible, but I tend to come across as more offense that I wish. You're comment sounds like a quote of ridiculous fanatical rhetoric which Chomsky would quote. I used to be caught up in his world view, indeed it was very comfortable to find some explanations for evil in the humanity when I thought humans are good and for some strange reason, to feel that I had seen beyond all the propaganda and found that my own country was evil.
Samgurney88 4 months ago
@MenOfLetters But no moral questions are black and white and similarly human beings are not so simple either. There is evil, selfishness and cruelty in all of us and there is benevolence, kindness and love in (most) of us. American politics is stupid, the US government seems run by patriotic lunatics and their policies governed by stupidity and piousness. The response is not more piety or indignation, but rationality. Rationality makes things much less black and white than Chomsky's commentary.

The study of linguistics is obviously highly related to history as well-- where do languages come from, how do they evolve-- historical perspectives; hermaneutics-- understanding historical texts from the perspective of the times in which it was authored. Bible reading is >interesting thu that lense.

Employers left to their own 'bottom' line, do neglect consideration of safety of workers. Canada had some union-busting, replaced by a relatively unenforceable "Labour Code".

chomsky may be minimalising his importance, but his role as a conduit of ideas, as an analyzer and a thinker is not to be underestimated. he helped me to develope a logic and a way of thinking that supports my intuituve convictions. everytime i read him, or see a clip like this one, he puts a bit of gasoline on the fire inside me. if, in my own very small way, i'm one of the 'heroes' who fight the daily battle, it's partly thanks to him. he's one of the greatest thinker of this time!

@countertreason
Easy. Look up "Robert Reich Military-Industrial Complex". Another great work is by Mr. Jeremy Scahill, an investigative journalist who has documented almost everything there is to know about the private contracting corporation "Blackwater". This latter corporation steals people's tax dollars, degrades the service of the troops over there, and everybody on board, including Erik Prince, is living well.
Are you sure you can apologize for such crimes?

I will only apologize for this if we mean apologize in its traditional Greek sense; apologia. I will certainly defend everything in our society and invite you to leave if you don't like it.
One more time, can you explain it to me or not. I can explain myself and my opinions because what I read is comprehensible and understandable. Can you say the same about your interests or not?
countertreason 6 months ago
@countertreason
Yes - I simply want corporations and its ilk's influence minimized when it comes to issues such as foreign policy. Blackwater, a private contracting corporation, quite literally steals tax dollars and does not abide by the rules of law.
So, in essence, what can you say about a foreign policy that is so heavily influenced by such corporations?
theoldspicestuff 6 months ago
@theoldspicestuff Explain your contentions. All you are doing is making claim. Tell me how much they received, what their mandate was and how they failed to live up to their contractual obligations or did not deserve the amount of money that they did. Explain that.
Until then, all you are doing is making claims that you are incapable of rationally supporting. You have failed to prove the extent to which corporations influence government.

@Lamboragon Its a common myth is it? It's published annually, there for everyone to see and analyze. Quality of life relative to education, life expectancy, access to health care, etc. Common sense really, if people these things they tend to live a better life. They have universal health care at no cost other than the usual taxes... obviously. You actually rationalize inequality while the rich make a killing and call it progress? Unbelievable. Oh, and my education was free :)
rhth79 7 months ago
@Lamboragon I tend to agree state socialism isn't the best way to go about helping poverty or inequality considering the tax burden it would require in the current monetary system. But on what grounds is smaller government better for the general population? Systems with socialist tendencies like universal health care and policies aimed at balancing income inequality clearly have a higher quality of life for the general population.

Question: How would Professor Chomsky's perspective on the Israel/Palestine conflict change (if at all) if he were to suddenly become convinced of the truth of the Hebrew Bible (that it represents a true revelation of G-d, that the Prophets were true prophets and that the land of Israel, including the West-bank, was in fact deeded to the Jewish nation by G-d)?

I think you are talking about corporatism -- a system in which the state's power to regulate markets is taken over by corporations; in which profits are capitalized, losses socialized; in which monopolies and oligopolies are the norm; in which "private tyranny" ensues. Free enterprise capitalism is by its very nature anti-corporatist. It's a system is which power is most decentralized. To confuse corporatism with capitalism is a big mistake.

If this were true, the administration would nationalize everything and force the biggest corporations to distribute wealth to the lowest income families. That's REAL state socialism.

But yea you can worship capitalism, and thereby worship gaining wealth and commodities all you want. I happen to feel like life is a little more than how much money you have in the bank or what type of car you drive or how big you house is. That is all capitalism teaches people, greed is good, at any expense.
I think life is about bettering oneself and humanity and the world as a whole. And helping people. Capitalism almost makes you do the opposite.
