Noam Chomsky: Distorted Morality
In this remarkable documentary, Noam Chomsky offers a
riveting but devastating critique of America's current war on terror
arguing, in fact, that it is a logistical impossibility for such a war
to be taking place. Professor Chomsky presents his reasoning with
astonishing and refreshing clarity, drawing from a wealth of historical
knowledge and analysis. "Only those who are entirely ignorant of modern
history will be surprised by the course of events, or by the
justifications that are provided..."
Chomsky, a MIT professor is a world-renowned author and expert on media
communications and politics. Though he may not have the most
charismatic speaking style, his knowledge and ability to tie events
together to explain a non mainstream story, is bar none. He is often
interviewed in documentaries due to the respect that he has earned over
his long career promoting the interests of the middle and working class.
In this speech, he gives an interesting timeline of U.S. sanctioned
state sponsored international terrorism spanning several continents and
several decades while giving the U.S. government the benefit of the
doubt in areas of dispute. The facts may surprise you.
