Skridttæsk til Noam Chomsky i IsraelNationalNews veludført af Steven Plaut. Her lidt fra Chomsky the Ba’athist:

Interestingly, not every person in the democratic West is overjoyed at seeing Syrian fascism at last challenged. Noam Chomksy, the MIT inventor of now-discredited theories of linguistics, is determined to defend and perpetuate Syrian colonization of Lebanon, no matter how many Lebanese lives it costs.

His reason? He insists Syrian occupation of Lebanon is necessary as a way to prevent those evil Israelis from doing horrid deeds in Lebanon, like attempting to protect their citizens from terrorist attacks launched out of Lebanon. Yes, the same academic apologist for the Khmer Rouge – who defended the Communist regime in Cambodia to the last throughout the years of the genocide it carried out – prefers to have Lebanon under Bashar Al-Assad’s jackboot. Especially if it prevents the Lebanese from engaging in their notorious fondness for capitalism and entrepreneurship, which Chomsky wants wiped out and replaced with Stalinism, and if it also deters Israel from striking terrorist bases.

1. “the MIT inventor of now-discredited theories of linguistics”

   Du fremhæver selv ovenstående. Selvfølgelig er Chomskys teorier blevet miskrediteret. Lingvistik er en ret ny videnskab, og Noam Chomsky var en af de første til at fremkomme med en decideret lingvistisk teori. Jeg kan i øvrigt ikke se, hvorfor dette skulle kunne medvirke til at gøre ham mindre troværdig som geopolitisk analytiker. Der må da være alle mulige andre argumenter at bruge.
