Some time ago I concluded that the fatal flaw in Chomsky's JFK-related analyses was his (NC's) unwillingness/inability to factor into his observations the admittedly non-quantifiable phenomenon that is best understood as enlightenment.
(The anti-Chomsky in this regard is, of course, James Douglass.)
Chomsky's conclusion that JFK came to and left the stage as a committed Cold Warrior is a product of such thinking -- not to mention an indication of rather primitive deep political research skills.

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
