@Ricardo49223 Do you know that Christianity is correct? The world around us reveals that G-d DOES exist, and the historical evidence reveals that Jesus Christ really did come to this earth and there is overwhelming evidence that Jesus Christ really did physically rise from the dead. Jesus is coming again and the signs of the end times that were foretold in the Bible are coming to pass.
America is a imperialist nation. Imperialist nations are the defenders of capitalism. But Russia and China are imperialist too. It is not only the USA. But Noam Chomsky is right about the nature of the America government. No matter who is president, the state will always support capitalism against workers and poor people. The American state will do whatever the capitalist class demand!
when did that interview take place? its really annoying that most of the interesting videos are blank dated. i mean who cares about the upload date, i want to know when an interview/conference or whatever actually happened so i can put it in some context.
ps: maybe its there and im just blind, than i apologize.
If Prof Chomsky is the conscience of America then America has a conscience, and that makes the outrage of its evil infinitely greater, for a man who does not listen to his conscience may be said to be more evil than a man who has no conscience.
America is well and truly damned, not because chomsky is ineffective but because he will be ignored

@gobuddyboy I'm not so sure. We usually find a renewed respect and admiration for works done by the deceased. People like Karl Marx for instance. His ideas were a lot more influential after he died.
@Allrightteam It's because Chomsky writes for a layman's audience. The purpose of his work is to educate the general public. He doesn't really do a lot of theoretical stuff. He's more like a journalist that just reports records and what people say.

Let's be clear about one thing. America has not been fair to her own people. She ha fallen from her orestuge clealr. She has no morals. As I was researching my coutries history she took on an arrogance that reveals her leaderships personality. The elite simpy do not wish for her to return to her morality. The multinational corporations, big bankers and politicians have waged war on us internally and the people are not in agreement
It was never moral. Nation-states aren't moral institutions. The colonization of the US since the 17th century claimed almost 15 million Native American lives, hundreds of different tribes and mini-cultures. Almost 3 times the Holocaust. George Washington PERSONALLY led the battle against thousands of Iroquois, slaughtering women and children. All of the other immoral trades (slavery, railroad expoits, etc.) all halted because they were non-profitable, not cause corporations and States "care"...
@DMChoreographer I know you can't. Thanks for pointing out the obvious. However, I'm saying dispense with the idea that America was ever a "moral" power system.

@truckerfromreno You don't know that. ...and, when you come to the complete realization of the full impact of why that statement is absolutely true, while your statement merely might be true, you very well might cease to be a small-minded, ideological simpleton.
His comment on the Internet was spot on. Look at how the Internet has been used in the "Arab spring" events. And this video seems old. Like 2000 or earlier.
When I think of intellectuality, this man is probably the only American comes to my mind. He's giant! He's as giant as Foucault was to France, or as Russell was to Britain.
@fartknocker31 Far from it. He is just a hard working Guy that finds great Motivation. Motivation is key, and is Something everyone can find through selected Information consumtion.
@la2395online No my brother you are wrong. Noam most certainly does blame the U.S. populace. Look a little deeper in Noam's work and you will find he say that since we do not do anything about attrocities caused by U.S. interests it is the same as condoning it. He is absolutely right. Sometimes it's difficult when the mirror is turned inwarrds.
So many people believed him, and could never find a proper job again. Once a demagoge comes along and destroys your attitude, life sucks and happiness is gone forever. ;-)
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
@ehudnold9 Yours is the most stupid kind of comment, failing to see that throughout human history, ideas were borrowed by one group from another. Do you ever wonder where the Jews got their one God idea? Abraham was the father of both Jews & Arabs, you moron. The concept of one God wass not monopolized by the Jews; they just got opportunity to make it more pertinent to their lives thanks to the Roman oppression. Ancient Jews were not strictly monotheistic. Watch, "The Saga of the Israelites".
Yet he profites from the US, his citizenship, its money. If he was a Pakistani, writing in Urdu, he would be bombed to his friends in drone-dread-heaven. I mean, he is clearly a part of the Empire. Even the kings of old had jesters showing them vividly how violent the king's rule was. It only flatters.
If you ever read a full interview or a book by chomsky you would know that he only uses conventional sources in order to prove his point(s). His sources are subjective and not beneficial at all to what HE stands for, so he uses them in order to prove his statements by using "their" refrences. Indeed very impressive, and completely convincing. It's no bullshit propaganda from either side, just plain and as I see it, healty criticism. Conventional tv refuses him. Now guess why.
Whatever the natsies did to the Jews - Now the Ashkenazies-Natsies doing to people!Stop doing "VOICE TO SKULL ON INNOCENTS PEOPLE-STOPED-STOPED-STOPE"!!! Something very very wrong with Russians/Ashkenazies/Germans Jews (Mkultra, Kabalah,The Lost Tribe -are run secretly by those power-sharks They are behind everything-thats it!!!) suppresses Mafia that underground-underneath of everything they are behind everything! Silverstien, Kissinger and more are sickos!
Chomsky explicitly supports the two-state solution in Palestine and has for 30 years. He explicitly opposed the one-state solution. He believes the Jews should have, right now, a Jewish state on Palestinian land. That by definition is a Zionist. Of course he criticizes Israel, many Zionists do, they might have differences with the current direction being followed, but they all support the existence of a Jewish state. There are no non-Zionists in the US media or politics, witness H. Thomas.
@flimflamman Are you talking about someone else? Noam Chomsky a dedicated Zionist? Are you fucking insane, have you actually heard he talk about Israel. That must be way so many Blind Israeli supporters call him a self hating jew because is so pro Israel.
You are a psychotic obviously. You couldn't be anymore wrong, its amazing. Take your medication wacko.
@gorgorybmus Anyone that would argue Chomsky is a "Zionist" should prove they are taking their doctor proscribed medication. The crap you hear on youtube is overwhelming at times. I have a hard time accepting the fact that people are this stupid.
Israel thinks Chomsky is helping the terrorist by giving them cover and this moron thinks "well that must mean he is a hardcore Israeli supporter"

What impresses me so much about professor Chomsky, is that he never allows interviews, q&a's and debates to focus on his own persona. In fact, the truth and the issue at hand defines his persona. I recently discovered this man, and it has completely changed my world view. I thought The Wire was unique in its dissidence, but Chomsky operates on a whole another level.
@dilmao Dude welcome to the club, I have tried to cultivated the same mental attitude as Chomsky and fail miserably. His extreme knowledge of politics and history and ethics is just mind blowing. I try to fact check everything he says now because I trust his opinion to much, we have to avoid making him an unimpeachable intellectual.

@thereddog223 If the goverment was truly the people, then we would have direct or participatory democracy. We would have have influence in major decisions like going into wars for oil interest, taxes, and how those tax dollars get spent. We do not even have represntative democracy in our country, beacuase we are given a false choice between two parties with more or less a similiar agenda.
@hexcane I've never heard of John Pilger so I'll look into him. As for Chomsky, I am currently attempting to read "Hegemony or Survival" and I say "attempting" because Chomsky's books are a bit confusing (at least to me).
@hexcane I don't understand why you need to be so aggressive in your response to me. All I'm doing is asking a question and wanting an answer. And yes, I understand that big business gains from governmental support but that was not the question I posed. If you would just take a look at my previous comment, I asked "What does the U.S. have to gain by backing dictatorships and conflicts like the ones in East Timor and Nicaragua?"
put simply , divide and conquer . for a complex understanding of why the US is playing chess with tiny countries pick up a book on American geopolitics of the last 30 or so years.
@mdrndrum Noam chomsky himself has a wide library of material on the subject much of it available legally as PDF's , The Disinformation series offers an insight into a huge variety of deceptions and media distortions, Mike Ruppert has a good insight into energy politics of the last 50 years, Kurt Vonnegut if you can stand it , pick up any selection of political science books and draw conclusions of your own.
take a look at the official chomsky website, where you'll find extensive material on the matter, including articles, debates, speeches etc. there are also plenty of videos here on youtube. the chomsky website also lists his many books, including 'hegemony or survival', 'manufacturing consent' and 'deterring democracy', to name but a few. hope that's useful.
@towneslives I find all of his works utterly dull and absolutely biased leaning towards communism. As far as I'm concerned chomsky can die in 5 minutes and I wouldn't care at all.
@LtSgt5 It always amazes me how people that never experienced and have no clue, dismiss communism...I'm a romanian ..i lived in it...the simple thing ppl say " you lived in communism you were starving => communism is evil"...when the truth is ..i was starving cause of some maniac dictator...with the blessing of the US and the Western world...you don't have to believe me..look it up ..Nixon's visit to Romania...Ceausescu's visit to England, France etc.
@arthurdonachy I'm sorry, it's just I'm just starting to try to understand this whole corporate/government dilemma and Chomsky speaks with such eloquence and uses some scholarly terms. If you wouldn't mind, couls you answer my question?
@arthurdonachy Ok, so the government works in the interest of the dominant private sectors, mainly multi-national corporations. But what does the dominant sector have to gain from it?
ok; I think there is a substantial amount of piss taking here.
I 've read Hegemony or Survival its quite plainly written,you do not have to a linguist to absorb facts
.However, if yours is a serious enquiry "townlives" answer is the most sensible reply.
If you want to form your own opinion you cant be lazy, compare the information you glean from chomsky et al with what you are fed via the corporate media then decide for yourself.
@arthurdonachy Well thanks for helping. And give me a break, pal, I'm 18. Given that you're 66, I think we can both agree that you have had much more experience in this world than I have.
@jimanHK cuz most media outlets are run by corporations..chomsky speaks against them..but when u think about it..corporations control everything..our politicians..where we get our information from..and to a slight extent what we buy..doesnt that seem crazy?
Good on you Noam. Every woman and child needs a male mentor/male figure in their life that loves as much as you do. You care enough about us women to say all this!
What hurts me as a woman. Having to drive through every suburb and ALWAYS see an Adult shop. It hurts me because they are telling men it's ok to treat women or view women in such filthy perverted conditions.
This has happened about five times in this video.....the interviewer says," uhhh.....(then says what he feels is a very complex and intelligent word)."
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.
@pazomblez On this page and all other pages are a series of comments. Those who dislike Chomsky mostly state positions of his that are untenable. Those who like Chomsky say things like, "wow, Chomsky's wearing a jacket" or talk about how he intellectually humiliated an interviewer or even themselves ('I wish I were smart like him', 'we need him, I hope he doesn't die!').
In left wing circles there is little to no criticism of him. Personality cult - state apparatus.
There are certainly left-wing people who travel left wing cirlces who frequent the videos of left wing intellectuals, and the saddest part of this message I am writing right now is that I guess I need to write it.
I do not care whether you acknowledge the veracity of what I am saying, but I am very well acquainted with left wing circles and what is commonly thought amongst the adherents.
@ojasb No sir, I am afraid it is you that needs to be credited with the genius; it sure takes a lot of wisdom to be able to make a sarcastic comment. You definetly deserve to be taken seriously.

@ahmed337799 This is what makes me sick about the modern left, exactly this. You fuckers are so self-absorbed and arrogant and have spent so much time alone and ignorant inside of your fucking echo chambers that you think perspective from the outside is alien and can be brushed aside.
I am glad that you are incredibly like a horrible and stupid person who will never succeed in anything. I am tired of you fuckers. I do genuinely smile when I know you scumbags are mostly losers.
do you listen to yourself? a few people comment on chomsky's handsomness or his sharpness and you make it out to be some sort of stalinist personality cult?
@ahmed337799 ROFL this countertreason is one major rightwinger troll lo life moron ROFL...i think he has a deep fetish about comrade chomsky and dosent want to admit it,the only thing he does is going on chomsky videos and live his idiotic comments...as if anyone cares ROFL,what a pathetic loser
@dpapaioannow Countertreason goes all over the Noam Chomsky videos and "challenges" (a.k.a. trolls) the commenters, then when someone responds, amuses himself for hours with back-and-forth bickering. Others include "lakeeriejew" and "haroos". Watch out for these people.

@la2395online No my brother you are wrong. Noam most certainly does blame the U.S. populace. Look a little deeper in Noam's work and you will find he say that since we do not do anything about attrocities caused by U.S. interests it is the same as condoning it. He is absolutely right. Sometimes it's difficult when the mirror is turned inwarrds.

@ehudnold9 Yours is the most stupid kind of comment, failing to see that throughout human history, ideas were borrowed by one group from another. Do you ever wonder where the Jews got their one God idea? Abraham was the father of both Jews & Arabs, you moron. The concept of one God wass not monopolized by the Jews; they just got opportunity to make it more pertinent to their lives thanks to the Roman oppression. Ancient Jews were not strictly monotheistic. Watch, "The Saga of the Israelites".

Even the kings of old had jesters showing them vividly how violent the king's rule was. It only flatters.
lodproductions90 7 months ago
If you ever read a full interview or a book by chomsky you would know that he only uses conventional sources in order to prove his point(s). His sources are subjective and not beneficial at all to what HE stands for, so he uses them in order to prove his statements by using "their" refrences. Indeed very impressive, and completely convincing. It's no bullshit propaganda from either side, just plain and as I see it, healty criticism. Conventional tv refuses him. Now guess why.

Chomsky explicitly supports the two-state solution in Palestine and has for 30 years. He explicitly opposed the one-state solution. He believes the Jews should have, right now, a Jewish state on Palestinian land. That by definition is a Zionist. Of course he criticizes Israel, many Zionists do, they might have differences with the current direction being followed, but they all support the existence of a Jewish state. There are no non-Zionists in the US media or politics, witness H. Thomas.

What impresses me so much about professor Chomsky, is that he never allows interviews, q&a's and debates to focus on his own persona. In fact, the truth and the issue at hand defines his persona. I recently discovered this man, and it has completely changed my world view. I thought The Wire was unique in its dissidence, but Chomsky operates on a whole another level.

@dilmao Dude welcome to the club, I have tried to cultivated the same mental attitude as Chomsky and fail miserably. His extreme knowledge of politics and history and ethics is just mind blowing.

BTW, most of his facts are dead on.
