Thank you so much for having Chomsky on your show. I believe him to be a great man, a good man.He has the ability to recall events and dates more accurately than anyone that I have ever known. I am a huge fan.

Very helpful! Thank you. Maud Easter

powerful discussion on current international affairs..blessings on all participants ,speakers and Joseph Gerson.....Ehtisham Rana..Pakistan

Michael Klare's panglossian view of the future of American hegemony seems to me to be wildly at variance with current developments on the world stage.

What shockingly appealing things this old senile man is saying. Shame on him for backing Putin

This is too sad for me to listen to.

Thank you Noam Chomsky ❤

i think both peoples have been deeply wounded by the wider world and that blame should go to the military industrial complex, rejection and discrimination of both Jews and Palestinians historically and fear of each other from the beginning. Israel has been targeted from its inception and the Palestinians have been used by the Arab Nations to get rid of Israel. Israel has been increasingly treating Palestinians horribly, due to its fear and learned hatred coming from Palestinian violence. Their retribution has been beyond horrific, causing more hatred against each group. The answer is to demand that Israel ceasefire and the international community work to meet the needs of both Palestinians and Israelis for peace, justice, food, health, housing, water and necessary resources. Without that the cycle of hatred and war will continue.

Hate is the only outcome of a war..

Thank you. Informative. Have subscribed.

Excellent webinar, information available everywehre except in the United States., where igorence with reference to the theme is not only bliss, but the path to paradise.

Norm, you will feel a warmth around and towards the center of your chest, a ball of such depth will be in the middle of that warmth. You will think any thing to make that feeling go away. The focus of your mind is the training, keep center no matter the pain in you center. Keep focus, Norm Im giving you a Honorary Right of understanding, do you understand?

Your personal guilt is somewhat collective Norm, Focus of center or quiet of the mind to just be aware without thought.

Due you still seek immortality?

Norm why pray for you teacher, in the earthier when you find as your Studie focus on the color Yellow and be with that, or you might find yourself a child again.

Do you think the US really cares about drugs when they find cocaine in the White House?

Putin stooge. As always, he will back any regime or movement, so long as it's against the west. He even denied the Cambodia genocide under Pol Pot..

Thank you for the wonderful presentation from Emily, Margaret and Joseahp

Can’t blame Taiwan for not being interested in becoming a part of china…. china has become an international pariah and has a very unattractive political system. Taiwan is superior to china in every way… why would they want to devolve backwards towards the china-way? If propel from china visited Taiwan - maybe they would go back to china and encourage china to evolve into a better nation with a more evolved political system.

💛🙏 Thank you, Dr. Chomsky.

What a jerk.

Every day people die and there is no indication they ever 'come back' or emerge from death back to any kind of life. So when we die, it's as if the whole world dies. For the dead, the whole world does die with them. So why do we care about the future of life on earth? Well because of our own children - that's the obvious answer. But they will die one day too. So where does this obsession with the continuation of human life come from? To me it's irrational. I don't care if nuclear war wipes me out or if it's a heart attack. So I say to those mad people with itchy fingers on the nuclear button...do your worst. I don't give a damn. Sod the human race.

When is that POS going to apologize for his covid lies. He's not as smart as he thinks.

I tell you that any western so called expert that believe china has imprisoned ,1 million uighurs,you are all propagandists and charlatans.you have all lost credibility to my eyes and most muslim govts around the world has not accepted that there is genocide and mass imprisonment of uighurs. 1:12:44

Thank you for posting this very relevant discussion on our multi-polar world. An eye opener indeed. Congratulations to all the speaker and for the Campaign for Peace, Disarmement and Common Security for organizing this.

1:01:46 it would be nice if someone from the panel made even a half-hearted attempt to accurately and fairly articulate this general perspective on the war before declaring it to be incorrect and immoral. i think it is distasteful and glaringly cheap to strawman and summarily dismiss the views of serious people like richard sakwa, ivan katchanovski, geoffrey roberts, david hendrickson, john mearsheimer, stephen walt, norman finkelstein, benjamin schwarz, christopher layne, noam chomsky, the late stephen cohen, et al.

excellent discussion, thanks for this. i really appreciate that you eschewed the standard format for these things-ie tedious and bland speaker “presentations” (which are just papers read drearily aloud) with q&a/panelist exchange tacked on as an (assertively moderated/curated) afterthought-and that you instead went straight to q&a with ample time allotted for nuanced answers. the host moderated smartly, with restraint, allowing for panelists to dispute each other’s comments but stepping in when necessary to ensure no one got bowled over and everyone had an opportunity to say their piece. forgive the effusive comment, but i’ve listened to many hours now of scholarly/journalistic events like this on the ukraine war and 90% of it is completely worthless-not necessarily because the content/information is bad, but because one would be much better off just reading the monologue presentations as articles and the speakers never substantively engage with challenging, interesting questions nor are they taken to task by someone with a competing point of view

if someone breaks into my house and kills my family I'm not going to sit down negotiate! Would you? Wouldn't you defend yourself and call the police? So why Chomsky and his friends are asking Ukraine to negotiate with the murderer? What kind of peace would that be? It's dishonest to ask Ukraine to give up its land for the sake of peace to a murderer who would then invade his other neighbours. Come on and be honest in your thinking.

I'd like people better if it was clear Kruschev wanted nukes in Cuba to make its sovereignty invulnerable, and if we had nukes in many places to make the sovereignty of those places invulnerable. In other words, to be a guard against invasion of the weak by the strong. But the various reasons for these nuke deployments probably do not include the elimination of unilateral/multilateral invasion as a tool of the strong. Ukraine? Putin shows willingness to employ invasion and annexation, and the West resists without exressing anything like a principle that the strong should not be allowed to invade the weak. Negotiate with Putin? He probably would love a cease fire now or a peace deal that confirmed Russian possession of some face saving territory. But his heroes are imperial czars and a poet-philosopher that said Russia should take as much territory as it could between the East and the West. And Putin has said that Russia has a right to expand and Ukraine belongs to Russia. So, his aim, any cease fire or peace deal or not, is to sooner or later by one means or another control Kiev.

How the mighty have fallen. Not a mention of any preconditions for "peace" negotiations. Contrast this with what Chomsky said in 1971, about the US invasion of Vietnam. I have replaced with "Vietnam" with "Ukraine", and "US" with "Russia". It seems that Chomsky only supports self-determination and resistance to invasion to countries invaded by the US. "As to negotiations, there is, in fact, very little to negotiate. As long as a Russian army of occupation remains in Ukraine, the war will continue. Withdrawal of Russian troops must be a unilateral act, as the invasion of Ukraine by the Russian government was a unilateral act in the first place. Those who had been calling for “negotiations now” were deluding themselves and others, just as those who now call for a cease-fire that will leave a Russian expeditionary force in Ukraine are not facing reality..."

More people need to listen!

Blessings and peace to all who have mistakenly followed him. But he still says Oswald acted alone and that the people responsible for the WTC were not the same ones committing crimes against humanity & war crimes (and profiting from them) in the Afghanistan and Iraq wars. Do you need to know more? If so, buckle up.

The world needs this man.

The question is... Is the destruction/anhiilation an organic evolution or a planned and managed event?

Chomsky has become a very old man and - as many old man - a stibborn and self - opinionated one whose ideologically driven fanatical hate of capitalism makes him incapable of recognizing that the war in Ukraine is NOT a war fought by the IMPERIALIST capitalist USA against Russia but a brutal colonial war of Putin´s Russia, that has transformed from an authoritarian regime into a totalitarian "fascist - like" Russia.

“Noam need no introduction, blah, blah, blah-foist-blah…” skip to 2:10

I think its pretty obvious that Russia isn’t holding back militarily in Ukraine. The Russian military is just highly incompetent and deeply corrupt.

Is there even any actual evidence that the US was planning on placing nuclear missiles in Ukraine? If not, then how is the war in Ukraine even comparable to the Cuban missile crisis?

The voice of truth ,the fighter for peace and justice .In this age still an courageous dissident with a free and very perspective mind . A monument of humanity.

So-called russia always attacked neighbors and genocided people, including their own folks, for centuries. But who is guilty: A-m-e-r-i-c-a!!! Thank you, comrade chomsky, you can sit down.

Regards to Noam thank you 🍎🍏💗☮️

Thank y 🍎🍏❤️

he is a hopeless pro russian staunch communist. too old to be changed

I didn’t like what Chomsky had to say about those who chose not to have a shot. But in this I agree with him. The war in Ukraine was completely avoidable. Once more the US is fighting a proxy war In someone else’s country. And it stinks.
