Sounds Like Americans are perpetually at war since invading these great lands so-called United States. Americans each pass on the baton of war with every tax paid.
Civilization is Might is Right terrorism that conscripts bozos into a logical framework of coerced war and labor. There's plenty of small-scale nomadic societies that have some gradient of interpersonal violence at times but no war (See: Warless Societies and the Origin of War By Raymond C. Kelly)
The war on terror is an an illegal war based on lies and dirty political agenda that consumed our resources. It’s a war against islam, including American Muslims. Politicians are making money about this war. It’s against humanity. It’s against our constitution. We must end this policy.
This inspirational speech only underpins the need for those who do choose to become political leaders, to be aware how at every moment they can take a better decision which aligns with the values that unite humanity. If they have innate mental wellbeing and a good quality of life, they will perform perfectly. To detoxify the political process, they should have an ethics adviser by their side who supports them, intimate knowledge of their Constitution, of international law, of human rights, of religious concepts; experience with different cultures.
How about his personal war on grooming, toothpaste and shampoo? Why are lefty idiots always so gross? And what is he expert in? Linguistics? He has never done anything for mankind except aggrandize himself. Psychopathic narcissist. Such a loser must appeal to other losers, I guess. Gross, stupid, boring AF losers.
No. They can't deal with the simple things in life. But we are supposed to think they know all about the complex issues facing society? Having one's teeth rot out from lack of care does not recommend one, even less one's opinion, to serious people.@@EmmanuelGoldstien
Noam Chomsky! The undisputed master of academic-fueled paranoid conspiracy theories, based on cherry-picked data, and exploitation of 20/20 Hindsight, about fields that he has never actually worked in himself-Which is everything outside Linguistics! And yet some people still take this ridiculous old man seriously! smh
Hi, In the Holy Bible in Daniel 7:13-14 it says "I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. (14) And there was given him dominion and Glory and a Kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve Him; his dominion is an Everlasting dominion, which SHALL NOT PASS AWAY, and His Kingdom that which shall NOT BE DESTROYED." God loves you so much that He sent His Holy Son Jesus from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins, and to be put into a tomb 3 days and rise from the dead the third day, and He (Jesus) went back up to heaven. We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, & unbelieving, & abominable, and murderers, & immoral persons & sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone..." Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus & put your true faith and trust in Him today & please repent. Will you have a Real encounter with Holy Lord Jesus and stay in a Genuine relationship with Him daily please?
Totally agreed with u .. u r brilliant- usa is the country with terrorism and if there is war on terror the 1st need to send for justice is usa - usa need to de-arm all its nuclear power hand over all the war criminal And each state will have a military based from each representative country to watch over it and need to rewrite it constitution law … as like Japan
If you want to see how flawed the entire system is, try to search up the US CIA joint operations with the British government….you wont find it at the same rate as searching up some BS on the net
Astonishing. I bet that was the last time West Point invited someone to give a consistent and fact-based talk on justifications for war. Doesn't seem like ideal things for US military officers to have on their minds.
I would think it would be the perfect thing for them to have on their minds. What more important thing could there be on one's mind when in the military? 99.9% of the time serviceman servicemen are trained to perform a task related to either planning for or conducting warfare.
Arab aggression? Israel joined in with France and Britain attacking Egypt in 1954. It was engaged in a covert campaign assassinating Egyptian rocketry and aeronautical scientists and sabotaging foreign contractors. A third of the Egyptian military was not even in the country in 1967 it was in Yemen.
Aren't we so lucky to have Chomsky judge what a, ' Just War ', is? After all, who could be better qualified on this important topic, than a career Linguistics Professor, with ZERO Real World Experience in Government, Military, Foreign Policy, International Affairs, or National Security, and whose critiques all have the great luxury of 20/20 Hindsight? This makes perfect sense-Right? UGH-It is a tragedy that anyone actually takes him seriously in any area outside of Linguistics! SMH
M CK didn't realize you needed a degree to learn about history. Frankly the study of politics/governance/history are hobbies. You don't need to be a scholar in those areas to read a book. You also don't need to be in politics to question the morality of a political decision. Do I need to have political experience to say that our intervention in Iraq or Vietnam was wrong?
Miranda Elaine, I did NOT say that Chomsky needed a degree. What I said was that Chomsky has ZERO Real World Experience in Government, Military, Foreign Policy, International Affairs, or National Security, and his critiques all have the great luxury of 20/20 Hindsight. -Which is all true.
M CK The theory he is critiquing is based off 20/20 hindsight as well. It's a rebuttal to someone else who does not have that experience. But yknow, 20/20 hindsight is how most people avoid being fools. "Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it" after all.
It is ONE thing to use 20/20 Hindsight to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past. It is entirely ANOTHER matter to spend decades merely EXPLOITING 20/20 Hindsight, by criticizing the past decisions and policies of others, but NEVER having the guts to step up, make these decisions and policies, and accept responsibility for the outcomes, going FORWARD, yourself! Which renders Chomsky's After the Fact criticisms essentially worthless! So let's see Chomsky actually get involved in the Policy Making process, give us all the benefit of his superior wisdom, and show he can do a better job, himself! -NOT merely criticize everyone ELSE from the sidelines, like the gutless Monday-Morning-Quarterback that he is!
M CK Chomsky is an activist who disagrees with the fundamental system upon which our government is formed. I don't think he'd be interested in being a part of it. Activists can have value without having positions in politics. Their role is to *appeal* to the masses and to people in power. His arguments are on morality which are inherently subjective, personal experience or "consequences" are irrelevant. Ps. Karl Marx was never a politician but he is blamed for communism aka Marxism lol.
Chomsky claimed 9/11 was not a conspiracy by the Bush administration when obviously it was. Why? Probably because his alma mater, MIT, produced the inept and fake video of planes penetrating and ludicrously passing through the steel and concrete walls of the twin towers - an impossibility. There were no planes, no Osama Bin Laden and no Islamic terrorists. The Israelis set demolition charges weeks earlier to synchronise when detonated with the imaginary aircraft. An Israeli TV crew was on hand to record the catastrophe even before it happened. Chomsky sold out like the late Christopher Hitchens did for the US invasion of Iraq and 9/11.
Ken W. Simpson Chomsky has to deny 9/11 truth to be taken seriously. He dog whistles it sometimes though, I remember a talk where he said 30% of people believe that 9/11 was an inside job. He said something like "what does that say about how people feel about our government that they would be willing to do that".
Which side are you on Chomsky? I think you are an apologist for terrorists. You'd be dangerous if more than a relative handful of Americans took you seriously.
Arrogant son of a bitch has never in his life actually been tasked with actually having to do something. Only criticizing that which has been done by somebody else. And that somebody else already knew that he wasn't going to get it right before he started. Chomsky is the supreme example of the old adage that "those who know do while those who don't teach".
Human nature is innately aggressive, although war is fundamentally an immoral act it can be considered as an important tool within the psychological framework of a society to have and understand the right and the ability to defend itself and protect its people and common values from corrupting malevolent unethical influence and acts of war. There are many problems with the theory of a 'just war' as war is difficult to comprehend because of it's many complexities that go deeper than human consciousness is capable of understanding, nonetheless war can be justified in certain circumstances. Every option must be considered before counter aggression takes place but ultimately taking a pacifist role when war is inevitable can be an immoral unethical choice in itself.
