It seems he took a page from Chomsky's book by slowing down. Not as much wow factor, but it allows for a more fluid and considerate conveyance of thought.

Norman and Noam, among many others, are so called non heard prophets in their own country.
They should be working in the Obama administration. Are they consulted?
What about Germany? Why should it be any different here?! We had and have some outstanding people, but they were not willing to compromise their values, so they failed in the arena of politics.
Salute Norman. It is incredible how he transformed the horrible pain of his family and consequently his own into a mission for transparency, clarity and more than that, a vision for resolving this conflict. Noam Chomsky is a so called prophet in his own country, so is Norman. We need to support the Gandhis of our time who share their heart earned wisdom with us. I am witnessing with despair, that Germany is exporter No. 3 in the world and foreign policy is "addressed" to be a peace mission?!
no gun pointed to my head. (at least not for a few years) but I am saying 80% of americans want the US to be neutral in this dispute.. we are not responsible for that war. Israel, its lobby and its puppets in congress are responsible. If I want to watch this video I will.
well my friend are you and finklestien saying a rancher in North Dakatoe have any influence on what policies the congress lets the zionist get away with? look at our vice prez run like a punk
Take no offense, but we've had one rancher from Texas recently, so being a rancher from North Dakota doesn't mean one is prevented from doing an international wrong. Well, I am not saying that you personally or directly responsible for what is happening in ME. What I am saying is that when a head of a state acts in any way in international arena he/she does so on behalf of his/her people, hence the responsibility of a leader not to put his/her people under the risk. continued
I think American governments have done so many international wrongs in the last century that one would say any attack on US would not be surprising. One of the Greatest wrongs of today is the way it deals with Israel (there is fanatically religious, geopolitical, military and expansionist agenda behind it), comparing how it deals with other states in the region, or anywhere in the world. I think it deserves a very good slap! Iraq wasn't a Saddam Hussein, it was 32mln people cont
cont. Iraq wasn't a Saddam Hussein, it was 32mln people. If you guys know who is responsible and cannot take any action against the person, then perhaps any other state(s) should invade your country and liberate you from your corrupt government!?? And of course there will be terrorists who will try to fight against liberation army, while calling themselves 'freedom fighters'. And I hope you will do a right decision in choosing sides. Leader=his/her people=his/her state sovereignty.
Your wrong regarding Saddam Hussein and 32 million people. The Iraqi people did not back the policies of saddam. Saddam had enormous state power and Iraqis (including a former client of mine) had no interest in Saddam. Should someone liberate the US? If they got rid of the ruling elite such as the council on foreign relations, and true democracy was returned as an american I would say thank you.
Am I!!?? Am I wrong because I am not an American!? So do you back the policies of your government? Come on man, who in the US cares about Iraqis??? My altruist friends. US and its allies in a difficult situation today due to their double standard policies. Full of hypocrisy!
Am I!!?? Am I wrong because I am not an American!? So do you back the policies of your government? Come on man, who in the US cares about Iraqis??? My dear altruist friends. US and its allies in a difficult situation today due to their double standard policies.
are the kurds citizens of Iraq????... It would not be wise to invade the US. Americans are quite well armed. You might recall a certain "empire that sun never sat on" took a beating it never recovered from some american farmers. So does states sovereignty legitimize Kim jong il? 6 million north koreans starved to death between 1991 and 1995. Couscous's regime in Romania was not acceptable. What japan did in manchuria during the 1930's was unacceptable. Stalin?
Kurds, N.Koreans etc?? I think you forgot to mention Indigenous Peoples of Americas!?? I say 'please stop being silly'. US and its allies should stop unfair usage of their power to influence other states, just because these states don't fit with their policies, by isolating them, starving their people to death, financing the oppositions (dirty games)
ultimately the people in the middle east are responsible for what happens in the middle east. The american people will not tolerate attacks. India will not tolerate attacks. Muslims must start engaging in self criticism and stop blaming everyone else.
If people in the ME are responsible then they should fix it themselves. The last time Muslim states engaged in diplomacy with the West, West created a state of Zionists, a virus in the region. No outside forth should interfere. US is financing, arming Israel to the teeth, using taxpayers money. You are slaves of Zionism. That's another reason why Finkelstein uses the word ''We''. Unfortunately, very large amount of US Americans are ignorant.
@mizzoulibertarian : The American people will no tolerate attacks? What country do you think does most of the attacks? Staring with British Imperialism at the start of the 1900's the Imperial countries have drawn the borders, installed the leaders and manipulated and controlled the resources and economies. How can you blame the people who live there for something that has been imposed on them against their will?
@mizzoulibertarian Your country has bases all over the middle east and the world, yet you think we're not responsible for any of it. Just speak for yourself when you talk about what the American people will or won't tolerate.
@mizzoulibertarian Wjat aload of crap you uttered. You are not folling me with your crap. First of all, it is not israel_Muslim issue. It's Israel-Palestine issue though I am sure that Israel and it'sopportunist supporters in US would try to make it look like it's religious issue. You are disgusting.
so it is acceptable for a state to use vx gas against the kurds in the name of state sovereignty? kim jong il is able to starve people? you find it morally acceptable to sit by and do nothing? what about when serbs engage in genocide against bosnian muslims? as I remember a lot of muslims were whining for us action. yes the US against is against chemical weapons used on minorities such as the kurds
