Chomsky: spent years as a highly-paid, tenured professor of linguistics at MIT and drives a snazzy red Audi A4.

I rather like this part.

Solzhenitsyn: ignored and/or demonized by the Western "peace movement". Sakharov: ignored and/or demonized by the Western "peace movement". Chomsky: worshipped by the Western "peace movement".

Three blatant lies in a row. Unless he's referring to the "peace movement" on Western Pluto.

I still rather like reading Chomsky. Unlike most of the Left, he can write a structured and consistent argument and is quite good at digging out little-known tidbits of history.

Unfortunately for his arguments, the evildoers of the capitalist state do fail in their roles as minions of Satan from time to time. I suppose they have to sleep and eat and attend the kids' recitals like anyone else.

"Unfortunately for his arguments, the evildoers of the capitalist state do fail in their roles as minions of Satan from time to time."

The reason for this is that they are public employers, basically no different from any other socialist/commie outfit on the planet. If the capitalist state would smarten up, they'd privatize evildoing and be more successful at suppressing dissidents like Chomsky.

Yes, he digs out "little tid-bits of history"...too bad they are always surrounded by lies and shrill invective.

I have tried to read CHimpsky, but he's such a liar and is ignorant of economics and politics. ANd he's a liar.

Tidbits of history? He clamied the US was trying to finish what the Nazi's started in his marxist propaganda book "What Uncle Sam Wants". He reaches for one of his favorite smears, Gehlen and the anti-Communist forces in Europe fighting COmmunist insurgency. On Gehlen he says he was the leader of "Nazi intelligence" in Europe. Untrue, and a lie(proving Chomsky does not care about honest research, only distorting the truth for the sake of his wacko political ideology, he's a communist).

First off the Nazis were the political party that was running the show in Germany. They as the Communists did, pervert nationalism for their ends, a sick racialist utopia. They had a private Army, the Waffen SS. Gehlen was not every a member of the SS. In fact he was a career officer in the Reichmar of the Wermacht. The Wermacht was the national army of Gemrany and fought for germany. Sure they were subject to propaganda and orders fromthe Nazi's but they were not NAZIS. In fact the Abwehr(The Wermacht's Intelligence agency)tried to kill Hitler, and was utterly subversive towards the Nazi regime, starting BEFORE the war. Gehlen was never a Nazi, he never worked for Nazi intelligence, nor was he ever "head Nazi Intelligence."

This is just one of the many of his "tidbits" of history that are nothing more that distortions crafted as to look real, when really they are utter fantasy. He is a Communist, with not even the intellectual steam power to move my toy engine.
