:: Chomsky on Chavez ::

We do not see things as they are. We see things as we are.

i say we put an end to the American Imperialism that exploits all of us!!!!!!

I heard a far-right organisation (Paladin Squad) tried to kill Chavez but his guys protected him.

I like chomsky, but I have my suspicions about some of the things he says. I hope the rest of you do as well, not to be against him, but not to swallow everything he says either.

i agree with most of the things he says about america's foreign policy but sometimes i disagree with him on the future's social structure because he is an anarchist and i'm a commie :D

Huh.. finally, something smart and balanced -thumbs up-.

I agree with you. In the US, ordinary people are imprisoned by everyday life and struggle to feed their children. In my country everyone hates US and I am no exception to this, but I always speak for the American ordinary people, how it is not their guilt. But there is always a counter argument of the following shape: "It is their responsibility to keep their government in line". To American people: For Gods sake, wake up and burn those paranoid bunch alive! You are 250000000 strong!!!

it is the peoples' responsibility, and many people in the US dont respect their leaders. but should we also look at iranians and blame for their stupid leaders? what about north koreans, should we blame their people for being brainwashed just like many people in the west have been?

Just like Allende was.
Fortunately the CIA didn't succeed in overthrwing Chavez.

No more than the USSR involvement in the region.

In any case, I prefer the american ideals of self-government and individual liberty to the violence and coercion of the socialists movements supported by the KGB.

Socialism and coercion are a good example?........ please
