Noam Chomsky on Israel: An Apartheid State

[Billo_Really]

Because it's true?

Why don't you stop listening to crazy people and start listening to ones who know what they're actually talking about?

Prove he's crazy.

Noam Chomsky is not only the foremost linguist of modern times, but has also been an outspoken Jewish critic of Israel Here he speaks at Boston University on Israeli Apartheid.

chomsky is kind of a known israel hater.

but then again, so are you.

You say that about anyone who criticizes Israel.

 

[Lipush]

Because it's true?

Why don't you stop listening to crazy people and start listening to ones who know what they're actually talking about?

Prove he's crazy.

Only crazy people prefer their enemies over their brothers.

Come on, don't discredit yourself by blathering. Say something worthwhile or shut up.

I just showed you 200 documented lies.

Your advice would be better aimed at Chomsky.

 

[daveman]

The best thing about Chomsky, is he really knows how to hit the nail on the head...

If we don't believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don't believe in it at all.

Everybody's worried about stopping terrorism. Well, there's a really easy way: stop participating in it.

Wanton killing of innocent civilians is terrorism, not a war against terrorism.

Propaganda is to a democracy what the bludgeon is to a totalitarian state.​

Yeah, he's great at wise-sounding platitudes.

History? He doesn't mind lying to further his agenda.

 

[daveman]

So the hell what? He's a lying sack of shit.

I don't see how you can come to that conclusion when you can't even say a specific thing that he said?

I said I'm not playing your stupid yappy-dog game. If you want to impress me, you prove how all 200 of those documented lies are actually true.

Get busy, or admit he's a liar. What's it going to be?

 

[Phoenall]

He is extremely influential in US.
Here you are again putting you fingers in your eras and screaming "nananana" at the top of you lungs to avoid facing reality.

and at any rate, he thinks he is a supporter of Israel, a loving critic, and Israel takes him seriously even if you don't!

Appeal to False Authority

He's a linguist...and from some reports, not a very good one.

His hatred of America is well-established. His love of terrorist regimes is well known.

Dismissed.

Is he a cunning linguist?

That would be me as I can breathe through my ears

 

[Phoenall]

From some reports?!?!?!? That's gratuitous and uninformed.

He is termed "the father of linguistics" and has also been hailed as the #1 intellectual of the 20th century. He is still alive, although quite elderly.

Noam Chomsky - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Did you bother to check the source of your link and find out who wrote the wiki entry, I will give you a clue his initials are N.C.

 

[daveman]

There's nothing wrong with the first statement, because its nothing but a question.

The second is just conjecture.

Do you disagree with any of those?

Where's your link to him praising Pol Pot?

Which one of those is baseless?

 

[daveman]

So anyway, this thread isn't about Chomsky's career or view on Cambodia, it about his views of Israel and what he said in those two interviews on Israel/Palestine.

It's already been explained to you why his quotes are worthless.

 

[daveman]

None of us are ever going to find another human who agrees with us 100%.

Meanwhile, we have to learn from the brilliant, chew the chicken and spit out the bone while we sharpen our wits answering the points we don't agree with, and not be trashing people gratuitously just to avoid dealing with uncomfortable issues.

If you can't do that, then take your keister over to the southeast Asia forum and vent for awhile, and come back when you are ready to discuss Israel/Palestine.

Now ... the videos?

**** the worthless videos. And **** you if you think you can tell people what to do.

Chomsky's a liar. It's been proven to you. You can eat all his shit if you want, but don't expect anyone else to believe you when you say it's yummy.

Piss off. Chomsky has NO ETHICS thus he is not competent to speak about anything other than maybe wiping his own ass.

There are plenty of people like amity and Billo eager to lick it clean for him.

 

[daveman]

the problem is, you likely think anyone who doesn't agree with you is an imbecile and an asshole, and use that to insulate you from what they're saying. If we let ourselves get away with that, we stop growing intellectually.

Anyone who doesn't acknowledge Chomsky's dishonesty after it's been conclusively proven isn't interested in growing intellectually.

Why check sources? That would only hamper the propaganda campaign here.

Shame on you for even suggesting such a thing.

 

[Picaro]

It's already been explained to you why his quotes are worthless.

But posting last means you win on the innernutz.

 

[proudveteran06]

Amity loves him because he is advocating the end of the primarily Jewish State. Too bad he doesn't express his views on a " Palestinian" NJA/ No Israelis Allowed Racist " state" . Of course the Pro Palestinian Racist sees nothing wrong with this

You first. You parrot imbeciles and unethical assholes. Are you sure you're not a recording?

Everything I say is intelligent.

You can't see it because you don't have the stones to put your emotions in check.

I'm not emotional dude. I'm relating facts. Facts don't give a heck what your emotions are. The facts are that Chomsky has lied for his entire academic career. The facts are he has supported the totalitarian regimes of Soviet Russia, China, and Pol Pot, and their murder of over a hundred million innocents.

Those are facts. You let YOUR emotions cloud the fact that he's scum. It is YOU who needs to reign in your emotions.

lol you run around here in the U.S. asking people what they think of Noam Chomsky and the response will be 'who?' 499 out of 500 times.
