[MEpianist]

Great footage, although I'm surprised this was from 2008.

[TheLionLike]

Read the BOOK ,,,"THE ISREAL LOBBY"

[Mrfairful]

wait minute I thought us was democracy how are they been blackmailed by state that is the size of new jersey.

[jtizz711]

chomsky is a jew....im confused

[pengo2007]

@jtizz711 Not all jews support the nazi-israeli regime.

[lifeemusicelife]

@jtizz711 yes well, when people are smart, they think with their brain, not with some cultish religious sense of national pride.

[worldlyknowledge]

Israel receives 15 Billion a year from the US, AIPAC controls the US and its Presidents.

[foxtrotalphaone]

uhm....

[CitizenCindy]

While the Israel lobby does play a very important role in shaping US Middle Eastern policy, one cannot pretend that the US does not have its own imperial interests in the region. Those interests reach far beyond the whims of any lobby, save the corporatist one.

[POlNTMAN]

Personally I prefer to hear friends of Israel, rather than enemies of Israel.

[Santamariacastro]

turn on CNN< FOX< BBC or other major channel and you will exclusively hear friends of Israel.

Truth hurts, indeed, but we need to face it.

[proudisraeli1]

you are out of your mind. all msm are on the side of Arabs. They all look for higher ratings, and they thing that putting the conventional truth on its head will get them the desired ratings.

[ngatfield]

It's THAT attitude which pisses me off the most. The assumption that a supporter cant legitimately criticise what they support, of total binary polarity, US and THEM.

[mooneclipse81]

Chomsky is a legend.

[proudisraeli1]

chomsky is a legendary lunatic.

[POlNTMAN]

the very notion of "Israel lobby" is ludicrous

[POlNTMAN]

I've got only one question: what the hell Chomsky is doing there? Is he acting like a piece of furniture or something?

I expected to see a DEBATE with Chomsky, not a lecture by some unknown Arabic loser. Anyway, I regret wasting 10 minutes of my live on this.

Well, i guess it is better to hear this unknown Arab guy rather than watching lecturer by our well known super-unbias lawyer Douchewitz ;) Chomsky and Finkelstein is more than legends!

[ThoughtProcess1]

You're absolutely right that jews dont control the world. That's silly and its a counterproductive claim. But when it comes to power the israeli government and others who are blindly pro israel have enormous sway over many in our government. To the U.S. gov. money equals power and influence and the pro israeli lobby have vast resources while opposing views do not have nearly enough money to have a strong voice. You dont hear much about any palestinian lobbyists do you?

[jetspino]

Palestinian Lobbyists - hundreds of millions of brainwashed people throughout the world

[ThoughtProcess1]

Good response you fucken idiot lol. you're just another scumbag who doesnt care about people in general only particular kinds of people. go drop dead

[redsox9687]

Everyone seems to be missing the point on this... With the Gulf royal families, US oil companies, defense contractors, crazy Evangelical Christians, and god knows how many other people who have vested interests in the Middle East, it's ONLY American Jews that "dictate US policy on Israel"??... And if it were really "to the extent that it's blatantly contrary to US interests" you'd think Americans would take action against it. Believe it or not the Jews really don't "control the whole world"...

[ThoughtProcess1]

And as to your claim that americans would take action if it werent in our interests, well thats just not realistic. Just look at the financial bailout(or all corporate welfare) or the blatant disregard for the constitution by the gov. or the fact that our national debt is ten trillion dollars and growing(a billion dollars a day just in interest) the list goes on and on and a majority of the american population are clueless. Just look at the amount of money israel recieves every year from us.

[redsox9687]

Alright, well it's been said before that "in a democracy, the people get the government they deserve..." if there are "all these jews leading the country into the toilet" and "all these greedy guys on wall street taking everyone's money" and you claim that "the majority of the american population are still clueless," then one could claim that it's their own problem... although I still don't really think you understand how ridiculous it is to argue that "the Jews control the whole world..."

[ThoughtProcess1]

When have I argued that Jews control the world?

[proudisraeli1]

Where was the Jewish Lobby during Holocaust? oh, I forgot, Holocaust never took place.

[oldjoe5]

The Jewish Lobby is a root cause of gthe Holocaust

[proudisraeli1]

...And how is that?

[oldjoe5]

The control of US national pols in the interest of a foreign nation; the spilling of american blood and emptying of american treasure for an Israeli agenda; the accumulation of vast wealth by a small Jewish elite on the back of the US taxpayer, the illegal sale of US supplied weapons to nations such as China and India, the creation of billions of enemies for the US by militaristic and savage behavior of Israel bankrolled by the USA.. . the list is unending.

[proudisraeli1]

....May be you can cite some prove too.

[oldjoe5]

My eye, my ears, my brain, common sense.

[proudisraeli1]

....So you don't have any prove. Aside from your eye, ears, brain(you pushing it here) and common sense. I can bet you didn't get far in life.

[oldjoe5]

Live in denial at your own risk.

Tiny little Israel, a nation of 7 or 8 million folks, has the 4th ranked military on the planet. Armed to the teeth with violence and initimidation its only foreign policy tools, it is hated throughout the world for its racist, violent behavior. Its control of US foreign policy via the blackmailing, bribery and extortion of its lobby, it has continued to act in this sick and, ultimately self destructive, manner for over six decades.

[proudisraeli1]

As far as 4th largest military, if they have it, I am sure they need it. Its neighborhood is quite bad, if you follow the news.

[MajNorberg]

proudisraeli1: Last I checked it was Israel which bombed Lebannon that resulted in the group HAMAS.......

..the battle is lost within the castle.....

[mcshobe2008]

@MajNorberg it was hizbollah dumb ass... andf for everyone else, the lobby conspiracy is a joke... they pale in comparison to larger US interests... tails don't wag dogs... more excuses to blame jews... listen to Chomsky... he is smart and honest... most people are one or the other but not both

[oldjoe5]

My God, proud. I just visited your youtube home. You claim to be an american? How can this be? I was not going to comment on how poorly you write in English, assuming it was your second language. WTF?

[proudisraeli1]

Feel free to comment, please do.

[stabhappyj]

you fail so badly trying to deflect the argument.

somewhere deep in your mind you know that ur racist state in its core is WRONG, but accepting that would mean giving up your comfort zone

and actually means you would have to SHARE.

[aadelmalmahdy]

proudisraeli1, you should shut up your filthy mouth. If you want proofs, the Israeli history in Palestine is full of proofs since the inception of this illegal state. Dig and you shall find. And there are many.

[oldjoe5]

Yep. The thought that US Pols acting for their advancement of their careers rather than for the citizenry is hardly a stretch.

[oldjoe5]

Jewish organizations, most notably AIPAC, absolutley call the shots on US foreign policy in the Middle East. They do this by controlling US pols who care more about their own careers than about the interests of the USA. Their vast financial resources along with their reach into the media can be used make or break politicians. The US does everything Israel wants -- can U think of an exception to this rule?

[redsox9687]

yes, the US' status on the jewish west bank settlements.

[oldjoe5]

And that offical US opposition manifests itslef how? In no more settlements? Nope.  In reduced or discontinued aid to israel? Nope. Is is meaningless, a farce

[POlNTMAN]

At the very least the US could recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Israel has been asking for this for many years, but Americans refused because of strong Arab pressure.

[oldjoe5]

Yes, arab pressure is a determining force in US foreign policy. Look at all the arabs names in the Pentagon, Defense Dept, the W House staff, the think tanks, etc. And AIPAC is the American Islamo Public Affairs Committee. You are quite well informed

[generalzeedot]

ahhhh, mate you're a fucking loony!!

[oldjoe5]

What you say seems quite logical; but pay attention over a few years and you will find you are wrong. The Jewish LObby absolutely controls US foreign policy in the Middle East

[proudisraeli1]

in what way, may i ask. that we don't bow to mullas from the Middle East. Btw, Hussein Obama already does that. I wish that Israel Lobby control the US, we would be in a much better shape.

[oldjoe5]

The Lobby does control US foreign policy, allowing Israel to act in the self destructive way that it does. Their existence and power will inevitably lead to devestation for Israel

[JoeStunner]

Baddar is so tedious. It isn't just his tone of voice - Chomsky's is hardly riveting - it's the content of his words. He waffles a lot, saying little revealing or profound. No contest, in my view.

[oldjoe5]

Better go back to watching Flavor of Love -- it's more suited to your attention span

[trance2307]

Baddar is a fucking tool, he's sucking up to the US...piece of shit...

[andybarone1984]

when they switch cameras it sounds like shit, if you are gonna switch, use the audio from the other one. or board audio or something.

[ComJudiaMurcia]

the church.the mother of all lobbies gets us gov money manipulates candidates foreign governments and sends us to war. PLUS it pays no taxes so infact its a foreign govt right in the usa.

israel is nothin in comparison

[ginganz13]

Very true - An Australian Law Professor I filmed for the NZARH has written a book on this - "the Purple Economy" see the video on my channel

[oldjoe5]

the Church does not own the congress or the media.
