May 21, 2012 - Chomsky is a tyrant who supports Orwellian speech codes on college campuses. So much for his stance on freedom of speech.

May 24, 2012 - He has critisized the aid to Egypt and S.A. lots of times, but the aid to Isreal is far greater.As for what others do to each other is not something the US is responsible for .or can do anything about.

olliephelan Says:

May 25, 2012 - the US is "responsible" for what "others" do , when the give them the ability to do it .The contras couldnt have fought in nicaragua without US aidIndonesia / Israel / and Iraq couldnt have perpetrated mass killing in the way they did without OUTSPOKEN official US collaborationAlmost EVERY harsh dictatorship world wide is given their power by either the USA / China or BritainThe biggest US ally is SAUDI arabia . Its also the most fundamentalist regime on EarthThey OWN 7% of US economy

saeed2806 Says:

May 25, 2012 - why don't you comment on the Ugandans who kill everyone who is not christian for example.aids given to Egypt and Saudi regimes are to oppress the people and they are not democratic countries, and this is exactly why Arabs hate the US policy because it supports the dictatorship in our countries on one hand and supports the Israeli brutal occupation. in the case of the support to Arab regimes or the support to Israel, Arabs pay their lives.and this is not good

saeed2806 Says:

May 25, 2012 - i agree with what you say, US should stop supporting the dictatorship around the world, only then citizens of earth can have peace. thank you for telling the truth

saeed2806 Says:

May 25, 2012 - but the US is responsible for the suffering of the Palestinians for example and not only the Palestinians.US shouldn't be blamed for the mistakes of others, i agree with you. but shall the US be responsible for its crimes

saeed2806 Says:

May 25, 2012 - when i saw this video, and read comments from brothers and sisters from the west,it gave me hope. there is still sanity in our world. long live justicepeace from palestine

saeed2806 Says:

May 25, 2012 - people in our Arab countries were oppressed for long time by the western supported governments. and on the same time we hear the west talking about freedom and human rights. convincing their citizens that they live in free countries and others are far back.with the Arab governments they used Islam to fight the USSR in Afghanistan and now it is our nation to be blamed, we blame your administrations for doing this to us. VETO all the UN resolutions. the US administration doesn't want peace

olliephelan Says:

May 25, 2012 - Well , it would be nice .BUT , if the USA wasnt the dominant power then another power would be (and is) supporting harsh dictators .The Romans did it , The Nazis didnt occupy France , they just garrisoned strategic towns and left the running of the country to a "friendly" puppet regime .So did the British and soviets / portugeuse / Belgians / French .Africa is still a European colony , the only difference is that we PICK African rulers rather than send white rulers (same thing really )

saeed2806 Says:

May 25, 2012 - OLLIEPHELAN you are right. there always was an empire, but it can not be an excuse for supporting the dictators, because this will bring a worst reaction. i like your comments because there is great sanity in them, this sanity should take over the world.the British were the dominant before the US and did the same, you are right. but how long shall it take us before we change all that, or do we just have to believe that it is the course of history and there is nothing we can do about it

olliephelan Says:

May 25, 2012 - Well , it hasnt changed ,and I dont think it willPowers almost have a "right" to exploit weaker powers (human nature) BUT people also have a right to oppose those powers and oppose exploitationTheres a greater potential for exploitation +violence now , BUT also a greater ability for dissent or oppositionUsually by the time an oppressor has been opposed , hes stolen enough to go comfortable into exileSo , it will continuePropaganda and control is FAR FAR more sophisticated now

saeed2806 Says:

May 25, 2012 - don't give up on me now lol

olliephelan Says:

May 25, 2012 - LOL .well the main duty of anyone who is "informed " properly is to spread the word.Thats the biggest threat to governments now (an educated population)BUT , methods of indoctrination +propaganda have developed parellel to "free thinking"Its become HIGHLY sophistacated + subtleIf your in the USA your probably bombarded with brainwashing that theres an ENEMY ( ANY enemy ; In Libya or a next door paedophile or global warming)The fact is that there ARE NO ENEMIESTheres just humans

saeed2806 Says:

May 25, 2012 - what i understand from what you say is that people in the US are motivated by fear more than anything else, and there must be an enemy to keep the process going on.so spread the word show that the real fear comes from within. it is also using the fear even though we might thing it is the real one.the reason why i like Chomsky is that he has a vision, but i still think we have lost a great opportunity the time the soviet was here to be continued

saeed2806 Says:

May 25, 2012 - i think we need 3 things freedom, social justice and development.the west went for freedom the east for social justice, at least theoretically for both sides. everyone wants development. but instead of trying to find a better philosophy to combine the real human needs they fought each other.therefore i think it was the best chance ever for humanity to put its real problems and demands on the table.we end up with no freedom and no social justice. we are insane lol HUMANS ARE INSANE

olliephelan Says:

May 25, 2012 - Practically everyone is motivated by fearFirstly the "word to spread" is how "powers" tend to act (such as what Chomsky tells) and then how fear is used to help those processesAs soon as communism was created, it was hijacked by people who wanted power and oppression cos they FEARed losing powerBoth sides claimed there was a massive nucleur threat when there was noneThat helped each superpower to assert their influence in their own areasHave you heard of "perpetual war for perpetual peace ?

olliephelan Says:

May 25, 2012 - Its actually 3 million Iraqis (not thousands) Not to mention the US initiated IRAN /IRAQ war which cost ANOTHER million livesI dont think Iran will be invaded . Simply because Iran has no interests in the Opium market ,

saeed2806 Says:

May 25, 2012 - lol yeah perpetual war for perpetual peace, i have not, but thanks for this enlightenment.sure fear motivates everyone now and always, but what i want to say is that people are not they use to be in past, were all those philosophers and thinkers go, who still cares about humanity in general. it is all about bank accounts, materialism is killing us. no morals in what we do now

olliephelan Says:

May 26, 2012 - TRUE , but..The cold war was VERY useful for both sides (FEAR -having a common enemy unites a group and allows control )The cold war simply allowed east +west to exert its influence ruthlessly over the areas that they influenced. ANY country could be attacked by claiming they were communist (nicaragua/cuba/el salvador ) and the opposite with soviets (afghanistan VN etc)But it was never about communism or capitalismIt was about alternative forms of democracy , which the USA refused to allow

olliephelan Says:

May 26, 2012 - "Perpetual war for perpetual peace" (perpetual =never ending)Having a common enemy or threat (real or not , usually NOT) causes a people to give up freedoms +rightsWW2 created a HUGE economic boom (pentagon military industrial complex) From then on the USA has had a WAR economyTheyve been at war CONSTANTLY since WW2The old ideas such as "commies" UFOs / war on drugs etc dont work anymore so they created a PERPETUAL never ending "war on terror"(FAKE)If you question it, your "anti-american

olliephelan Says:

May 26, 2012 - Q ; Which is a better functioning system ?1 - A government where the opposition is so effective that the government needs to imprison them or kill them (China / indonesia / Saudi arabia ) ?OR 2 - A government where the opposition is so ineffectual that theyre simply ignored (USA / UK etc )When the RUSSIANS invaded Afghanistan- Radio MOSCOW (state run) condemned the "invasion" and called on the Afghans to "RESIST", for FIVE DAYS + NIGHTSThis was MOSCOW!(the "evil empire" ?)

saeed2806 Says:

May 26, 2012 - it was really nice talking to you. you gave so many information from your world, and i feel i want to study them especially Perpetual war for perpetual peace.i will come back to you i won't let go yet, it is too early for that, thanks

olliephelan Says:

May 26, 2012 - thanks ok , ill leave ye with a general ideaYe have to examine human actions and nations actions without "pre-conceptions" Make some conclusions AFTER ye examine the facts fullyMost people make conclusions and judgemnents BEFORE they look"judgements! are the worstWe dont have the right to "judge"Ye can kill someone for something , but ye cant "judge them "Any kind of "preJUDice " (Judgement) or hatred clouds logicYe dont let other people define or create your enemies .Ye lose ALL power
