The American Political Spectrum-N.Chomsky C. Hitchens (1992)

Noam Chomsky and Christopher Hitchens have a very informative and funny joint interview/discussion regarding many of the issues regarding the media.
Issues of how it functions, how it selects and excludes and what its effects are.
They also take calls and questions from listeners.

I thought I should stick some sort of picture with the audio and I liked this one it has no real symbolic significance ..or does it? muwahahahah!

too funny....lets read ayn rand to gain the perfect insight to the world. you are a complete moron. tell me about ayn rand when you turn 65 and your ss check and medicare is not reality but a pipe dream..... chomsky isnt here to make solution dumbass, hes here to point out bullshit so we can find the solution. i doubt very much your read and if you did, you certainly cant understand chomsky. you aint smart enough brofius as is obvious by your comment.

Noam always gives such long answers and I think he's rambling, but he never is, he is just formulating a very complete, fluent and in-depth answer to the question. Hitchens is more acerbic in wit and tongue but Chomsky towers over him in terms of wealth of knowledge, ability to form unique connections, consistency and clarity. Ultimately I find his analyses infinitely more interesting than hitch (zues bless his health).

Hitchens inspires a critical admiration. You don't always have to agree with him to love him. Chomsky is a guru who's devotees would set themselves on fire before admitting a heretical thought.

@abortfailure7646 ss and medicare are a pipe dream? the facts say otherwise

Here is an example of Western elites in action. : watch?v=KJStWuU1gfU

[TheGodlessGuitarist]

Think of the HK's in the the Terminator films. The US vision of the world includes some strong similarities to the HK, aiming to have total control of the global population with these remote and perhaps soon to be autonomously guided killing machines.

None of this is my imagination or duplicitous propaganda. Many of the facts are staring you right in the face. You can read most declassified CIA documents online. I suggest you do, before continuing with your crusade on behalf of the US elite.

[TheGodlessGuitarist]

The goal of Western propaganda is to get people like you to go along with the murderous agenda of the US elite and it's plans for total global ownership. The US is still embarking on it's mission to own space from which it will soon have the weaponry and technology in place to strike, nearing instantaneously, anywhere in the world, at countries that do not fall to their knees in the presence of the 'shining beacon on the hill'. The US is also now using predator drones in domestic applications.

If we stop propping up these brutal Islamic governments/regimes with arms, the people will rebel and the Islamic cultural facade will very quickly drop away.

[TheGodlessGuitarist]

In the 50's-70's the Catholic Church, conscious of the needs of the rich elite to work the poor in shifts to serve their interests better, started to introduce multiple services throughout the day in addition to the once a day Mass. All of a sudden the pious masses could get away with telling people, having not been seen at mass, that they went to the morning or afternoon service, in order to keep up appearances. The Catholic Church has been in rapid decline ever since.

[TheGodlessGuitarist]

Most Muslims are very like Western Christians. They have a quasi cultural attachment to their state religion, though they have to keep up appearances and attend mosque or prayer 3 times a day. But in private they are as cynical of their religious elite as any Western Christian is of their own (the US being the exception).

Something happened in Ireland that really loosened the grip of the Catholic regime and demonstrates the seemingly pious masses to be largely indifferent to 'their' religion.

[TheGodlessGuitarist]

Saudi Arabia which has one of the most extreme Islamic regimes, is propped up by the US. If we want Islamic terrorism to stop, we have to stop funding it, and furthermore we have to stop bombing the shit out of other countries just so we can have their resources at the prices our rich elite are happy to pay.

I have spoken to many Muslims in the Middle East, and from my own experience they are just like you and me. They hate the oppressive nature of Islam as forced upon them by their regimes.
