The perfect - only - fitting epitaph for his career, Dawn, a career of deception and deceit in the service of the Central Intelligence Agency.
A career based on deception? This man has written more than most about US imperialism, corporate deception, and the facade of US foreign policy. He has spent a lifetime exposing, writing and speaking about the excesses of corporate power and the lies told by the American corporate media. Yet he disagrees with the conclusions of conspiracy theorists; this does not make him a "left gate-keeper" or any other label you wish to attach to him. He has a difference of opinion, and that is all there is to it.
John
Yeah right.
So when Chomsky says to an audience of 9/11 researchers 'who cares', that's perfectly understandable. We'll forgive the great man this minor and trivial indulgence, shall we? The fact that 9/11, along with Dealey Plaza, were the most significant and history changing deep political events in our lifetime is a mere bagatelle, right John? Just because he refuses to criticise Israel or recognise the Zionist regime's malicious influence over the US and other western countries is nothing to be worried about. He's just a little myopic, shall we say?
I know its a little off topic, but what's your opinion of Israel, John?
Mark:
The problem with Chomsky is that he is a celebrity of sorts and his opinion, even when wrong, will unfortunately influence people. That is unfortunate for people like us on this board who want the conspirators in the Kennedy assassination exposed, for all Americans and the world to see. However, I will not disparage a man like Chomsky who has done so much in providing the public with an alternative point of view, than that which is offered by the corporate controlled media.
Regarding Israel, it is off topic and does not belong here.
