      @@TomorrowWeLive There is not a single data/fact-based refutation of Chomsky's positions in that article that shows him "denying and justifying genocides". On the other hand, there are ample cases of the author of that drivel having been embroiled in academic malpractice and hoax himself, on subjects from whitewashing crimes against Australian Aborigines to publishing ideologically motivated fake stories on GMO food.
      Linking complete rubbish like a good-intentioned critical reader while all it is represents is a desperate attempt by a nobody to smear someone is shameful at the very least.

      @oot007 Před 11 měsíci

      @Steffan R Blanco The evidence in support of US President Jimmy Carter's statement of US war mongering is strong. Since the end of WW2 the US led the illegal invasion of Iraq that was based on deliberate false pretenses and manipulated intelligence where over a million innocent Iraqi civilians were murdered, waged war against Vietnam, Korea, Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Grenada, Haiti, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, Puerto Rico, Uruguay, Venezuela, Libya, Syria and Afghanistan that killed over 70,000 innocent civilians, Lebanon, Laos, Bosnia, Serbia, Yemen, Pakistan, Somalia, Iran and others.
      By it's own admission the US has launched at least 251 military interventions AFTER the USSR collapsed in 1991. That does not include still classified covert missions which the US has not yet admitted to.
      In what way is Carter wrong?

      Arthur James Schildgen oh really? So I would hope that you would also be highly opposed of those millions of incarcerations under the Obama administration as well right? Yknow since America is about equality? Obama has deported more illegal aliens than Trump has. Trumps deportations are majority criminals such as sex traffickers. Listen Obama was also against illegal immigration and openly denounced illegal immigration in his rallies, speeches, and his time during senator, nobody called him racist nor were their meltdowns over his millions in deportations. If you want to make this a case of pity for those immigrants than you should acknowledge the issue of both presidents, not just focus all that hate on one guy due to your opposing political views. What is communicated poorly and twisted negatively is trumps stance on immigration. He is FOR Legal immigrants, has nothing against them and has helped out many, what he won’t tolerate is those illegal immigrants who abuse the welfare system, have anchor babies, and even use false identification for work. There have been cases reported that illegal aliens have used the documents of deceased Americans for work, which frankly is disgusting. And before you talk about the border cages, most of those photos and the initiative of such harsh treatment started during the Obama administration. So please kind sir(hope I’m not assuming your gender) do not be fueled by prejudice and hatred, I share your dislike for the harsh treatment of those illegals but you cannot simply believe this is trumps fault their is only so much pity that can be given. I’ll end my response to your false rhetoric by giving you a real life example. If I’m driving intoxicated while my child is in the car and I get stopped, then surely my child will be separated from me as I go to jail. The same outcome can be viewed for those illegals who get deported, if you get deported the you can’t expect special treatment, coming here illegally is against the law. End of story

Such as using former Wehrmacht officers to rebuilt both German armies, and use of scientists in various programs that mostly went nowhere (such as pardoning Unit 731 members or Nazi camp doctors for ultimately useless infomation).
      We like to think that most of the Nazis were killed by our justice system, when really most of these men lived relatively luxurious lives, and had no apologies or redemption for their crimes.

He does understand what Nuremburg trials were about. It has nothing to do with taking over countries or war. That isn't why nazi germany was on trial. There was a minor charge that would have been dropped if the case came forward since invading isn't a crime. The reason the nazis were on trial for the war crimes, in camps, POWs, Civilians, Genocide of jew. And it's ironic because Noam Chomsky describes himself as a socialist. Which is as Goebbels said are all anti semetic. Since Marx Wrote the jewish Question which inspired hitler. About the cabal of jewish capitalism running the world in the stock market.

      we already know you have no intellectual integrity since you think marxist is synonymous with evil
      chomsky has said he is anti-marxist as he is critical of state power in all its forms, and also of hero worship, though he also sees the good in marxists part of the general working class movement, and of course isn’t such a baby tiny brain to think that marxist=stalinist
      give me any example of him being a fraud
      what on earth has your ridiculous idea of marxism got do with women’s sufferage?
      chomsky being a non-psychopath thinks all women should have a vote, something all marxists also believe strongly
      also on the charge of propagandist, i mean you simple havent ever heard the man speak or write of you think that, and are clearly yourself the one arguing in bad faith not chomsky
      disagree on the points - and i would sympathise, but to show yourself to be an mindless ideologue, that is a waste
      ps you imply he should leave the us to be killed for his beliefs? why? also has traveled all his life to places in peril

But the U.S. government has waged its own share of terror: Central America, Chile, Argentina, Cuba, Iran, Cambodia, Indonesia and the countries where we were visibly fighting--Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam. These stories are painful, they are distressing, but we need to hear them and learn from them, because these are the sorts of things that have shaped the world we live in today.
