Noam Chomsky About Serbia, Kosovo, Yugoslavia and NATO War 8

On the NATO Bombing of Yugoslavia
Noam Chomsky interviewed by Danilo Mandic
RTS Online, April 25, 2006
NOAM CHOMSKY, world-renowned linguist, political analyst, philosopher and activist, has been called "arguably the most important intellectual alive" by the New York Times. Recently, in a British magazine poll, he has been voted by a landslide as the top public intellectual in the world today. According to the Arts and Humanities Citation Index, between 1980 and 1992 Chomsky was cited as a source more often than any other living scholar, and remains the eighth most cited scholar ever. A professor at MIT, he is the author of more than 80 books, including The New Military Humanism: Lessons From Kosovo. His most recent book is Failed States: The Abuse of Power and the Assault on Democracy.

Danilo Mandic: Professor Noam Chomsky, in your, if I am not mistaken, first TV media appearance for Serbian media, thank you very much for being with us.

Noam Chomsky: I am glad to be with you.

Danilo Mandic: Last month marked the seventh anniversary of the beginning of the bombing of Yugoslavia. Why did NATO wage that war or I should say why did the United States wage that war?

The guy interviewing him is excellent. I wish we had such respectful intelligent people doing interviews in the western media.

@grbavicaNS how?

[canstooges]

@soyousay18 the interviewer is not Westerner but Serbian! His name is Danilo Mandic, which is common Serbian name and surname. But I suppose that he's student in US and probably lives there, because he speaks English very well and fluent!

Great interview kid. Do more!

[soyousay18]

The interviewer is clearly Western.

[Haltung]

The wish is mutual.

I wouldn't like a partition. None of the largest and most prestigious Serbian buildings and place of history are in the north or the Serb areas.

I say build up a professional army then wait till WWIII when nobody will care...
