THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED. PAULA ZAHN, CNN ANCHOR: They are two best selling authors with two very different takes on terrorism. In his book, "9-11," Noam Chomsky accuses the United States of being a terrorist state. He says the war in Afghanistan is wrong, states that in recent history, America has committed acts of terrorism, and maintains that America's foreign policy is hypocritical.

When all was said and done, Bill Bennett could have quoted Austin 3:16 to Mr. Chomsky.

And it would have been justified. Now, if he'll juts lay off Vince McMahon and Howard Stern, he'd be perfect.

Socialist professor? Chomsky? He's no namby-pamby Fabian but an unreconstructed Bolshevik Marxist. And he does not deny it.

You can trash Bill Bennett all you want but in this encounter he got it about right regarding Norm Chomsky and his hate-America hypocrisy. Chomsky has done a lot of harm, poisoning many young minds full of mush over the years and Bennett, although not a conservative purist, nailed Chomsky here. Good for Bennett.

You, fake Russian name, are of course an idiot.

As far as Bennett, he shouldn't legitimize Chomsky in this manner.

You forgot to include the pejorative "Jew Lover" in your description of Bennet. You certainly didn't forget to include "Jew" in your description of the Gramiscian Marxist/anarchist atheist Jew Hating Chomsky. Try to get all your ducks in line, next time.

Actually, I am. As for Marx, I would imagine so, although I dont know much about him personally.

CHOMSKY: Well, for example, the United States happens to be the only state in the world that has been condemned by the World Court for international terrorism, would have been condemned by the Security Council, except that it vetoed the resolution. This referred to the U.S. terrorist war against Nicaragua...

Okay, this is where I started feeling the uncontrollable urge to vomit and stopped reading.

Granted,although the connection to Iran(Iran-Contra) was interesting.....
A better example would have been the attack on Yugoslavia.
