  • if noam chomsky gets the sydney peace prize and this corrupted Obama person gets the nobel peace prize then i conclude that the sydney peace prize means much more and has much more value to it.

  • Rather than hoping that Chomsky will live for another 100 years (not that I would mind him to do so) we should all make an effort to reach his standards.

  • love how chomsky was holding the lamp at the beginning like he was smash someone lmaoooo

  • @sgpquek Yes that is correct and doesn't really have anything to do with Chomsky getting this prize. The decision to install a military base was made by the government of Australia. This award is given by the University of Sydney, which does not necessarily represent the views and opinions of the government.

  • Oh damn, Chomsky is wearing something other than his jeans and his blue sweatshirt.

  • @shamantrixx

    He will live at least as long as his ideal Bertrand Russell I hope. :P

  • Didn't Australia allowed a US millitary based in Darwin only this month?

  • @1Delu I just wish there was one channel on TV that gave Noam an hour segment. like on the news. shit would change so quickly.

  • an introduction worthy of Chomsky...which is pretty rare.  well done Sydney

  • @mikecunning11 I know, he looks absolutely crazy.

  • @owingawat

    I agree. he is the most amazing person I ever know..

  • I swear, if I get the money I'm getting Noam's face tattooed on me. lmfao

  • Oos tha blouwk wi tha beerd?

  • p.s noam chomsky is just great. hes thought provoking, intelligent and decent.

    dont die noam!
