Noam Chomsky on Obama (1)

[arzoyan]

Capitalism the wage slavery of immense humanity in a politically manipulated,armed,policed market mechanism for the abstract process of capital accumulation and concentration for the control of a few. A SYSTEM OF PERPETUAL WAR,POVERTY,EXPLOITATION,ENVIO­RNMENTAL DESTRUCTIONS,ANIMAL CRUELTY and so forth. . The competing gangs of ruling class are the enemies of humanity . We need to organise ourselves for a majority democratic movement for sharing the Earth in cooperation for our well being.

[fogggygyrl]

Noam brings up good points but these issues are not as easily solvable as he makes out. The problems are much more complex than he conveys.

[CF127]

why is this -4 . The comment is not too contentious.

[AndyFleming]

Dunno. Maybe it's 'cause Chomsky is valued precisely for the way in which he cuts thru the bs.

[TheOtherView]

Chomsky makes up stuff and at this point is completely senile. Hamas has not accepted anything since their creation; their goal as they make clear is to destroy Israel.

Chomsky lives in an ivory tower. He's not privy to certain information yet thinks he can sit on the sidelines like an arrogant intellectual and critique others.

[pcksamael]

And all you can do is resort to ad hominem attacks.

[AdmiralPrice]

@pcksamael I'll never hear the phrase "ad hominem" like I did before I heard Finkelstein's debate with Dershowitz. 

[BrideAndGroomFilmsHD]

You can't be serious.

[Narwal88]

TheOtherView... before you insult an intellectual giant like Chomsky and make an imbecile out of yourself, try reading something.. anything...

[TheHellfudge]

@TheOtherView

you mean the same Hamas that used to be armed by Israel?

[gloriahjk]

i think people are put off by his unwillingness to side with anyone one the 9-11 issue. he wrote a book about the event and aftermath afghanistan, etc. he's not getting paid off, he just is really knowledgeable about current events and their historical significance as being nothing new. same old order, just with a new name.

@gloriahjk

You think people are put off by the fact that he's not agreeing with 9-11 conspiracy theories?

[thedave108]

No he doesn't - he became irrelevant long ago. eg Noam believes the govt 911 story. Nuff said......Noam could have done much for people but he decided to tow the line - probably got paid off big time. Now he is USELESS....

[ShockBack]

Right, dave, and if he doesn't believe in the moon landing conspiracy he is being paid off big time by the government.

[intrepgun]

the government mishandling of the event was to distract people from much worse crimes happening every day all over the world. KSM admitted to orchestrating the attacks and his reason was US support for israeli crimes and what he and other islamofascists viewed as a war on islam. KSM's testimony checks out. all the craziness surrounds any big event, but there are ways to check what really happened and if you did, you'd feel better.

[Narwal88]

thedave108... how about we say that YOU are useless and move on, huh?

[peterpan234567]

it is one of the most dismaying facts of the utterly propagandistic US news media that Chomsky is marginalized. this man speaks the fucking truth.
