And I Have Incontrovertible Proof That the Moon "Landing" was "filmed" in Arizon

by Bill

America's war against Afghanistan is "a bigger terrorist act than what
happened on September 11," renowned US intellectual dissenter Noam Chomsky
said here [Chennal, India] in an address. "Like a mafia leader," the US
chose Afghanistan and struck at that country because it could not strike
back, he said.... The renowned linguist not only debunked American
militarism but also attacked several popular capitalist premises such as
"liberalization," "services" and the definition of "terrorism" in the
post-September 11 context, saying that even "democracy" meant a "private
power concentration." The "power of propaganda is such that even the victims
begin to use the same language," said one of the most bitter critics of U.S.
policies. "There is no truth to the story of a boom in the American
economy," he held.
