  • sorry - haha - this guy doesnt have a clue. omg....

  • I don't see many Americans - any-coloured Americans - welcoming Saudis with open arms in any meaningful sense. Nor does a country's status as an Ally necessarily mean that they are "best friends." How much do you think the average American cares about Saudi Arabia - come off it, they couldn't find it on a map. This is not only a relationship between two elites, 2 Fundamentalist States; Dr Chomsky, my old guru, why did you not keep up the linguistics after writing "Manufacturing Consent"?

  • A few years back there was a controversy with British prime minister Gordon Brown and a lady he called 'bigoted'. She complained about immigrants from east European countries.

    Do you think she had more change of complain about immigrants from, say, the US? Or Germany? This is not just a poor-rich thing as you might suspect. A few years from, when the west will stop being the obvious culprit of the world I think Huntington's work will be more recognized.

  • @bebzelle Given your money? You BUY their oil.

  • @Bomber0907 Wow thats about the stupidest comment I've seen all day. Chomsky is not a Bolshevik-look up Chomsky on Lenin here on YouTube.

  • Chomsky has over simplified the middle east and islam in this talk. He see things only from a liberal vision of how the world should be functioning to better fit his so called anti imperialist agenda. Saudia Arabia is an American ally but the saudi regime is given our money which then is subdized to the wahabi schools of thought which further fund wahabism in europe and rest of the world. Thus the saudis are a fundamentalist regime.

  • @sciolibertas "Ron Paul and Noam Chomsky should work together. . ." ew, no

  • Ron Paul and Noam Chomsky should work together more closely to form coalitions. The more I hear from Chomsky, while I don't agree with him on economics and some other things, he's spot on about foreign policy, the war on drugs and MSM manipulations.
