  • Any guess on how long it takes him to read a stack of books like that?

  • A few days(?). Chances are he wrote half of them.

  • Its all true! The USA fights as a nation, not as different administrations! There's hardly any difference at all between Democrats & Republicans! Both backed Vietnam War to the hilt! Both back up incursions in Latin America! There cant be any change with the military-industrial- complex around! They're the real Presidents!

  • Noam Chomsky saved my life! Literally!!!I'm 30 now & these past 5 years I've been reading his material like a freak! Absorbing, enlightening & true! Truisms 96% of the time! That's an astonishingly good track record! Sure beats the hell out of what I learnt in school! Looking back, I LEARN'T JACK SHIT IN SCHOOL! It was just the Battle of Britain, Normandy, D-Day & ancient Egypt! I never learnt philosophy like Karl Marx & Jeremy Bentham, or about the different races of the world & anthropology!

  • @nico3212 Congrats on getting unplugged! Read further. You will discover there are no "races".

  • only 4900 views??

  • Part 2/2 I'll say it again .. Obahhhma's only as great as his speech writers and spin doctors make him appear to be ! ..

  • whats the song at the end?

  • Chomsky reveals very succulantly how you cant expect any change in US foreign policy even under the Democrats either! Dont hold your breath in thinking it'll be more benign! The junta was installed in Greece in the late '60s for 8 horrifying years & then Turkey was given full blessings of invading Cyprus & taking a 1/3 of it! All Cyprus wanted was the purely romantic idea of being united with their Greek brothers/sisters of Greece! But the Republicans & Democrats alike would have none of that!

  • Chomsky..italy saind Thank genius.

  • Academics selectively read books and chapters relevant to their research, but in Chomsky's case I would agree with the above. haha
