- On September 17, 2012, Noam Chomsky held a public lecture with the title "The Emerging World Order: its roots, our legacy" at Politeama Rossetti in Trieste.
This setting looks like Noam Chomsky is a fashion designer.
He is wearing black velco strapped shoes! How chic!
Noam is more important to our survival than Noah, and he's real, so amazing.
Wow. Just looking at him gives me goose bumps. Brilliance at its finest. And he is an American!!!!!
Yeah.................
Original American indeed.
"Avram Noam Chomsky was born on December 7, 1928, in the East Oak Lane neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.[24] His father was William "Zev" Chomsky, an Ashkenazi Jew originally from Ukraine who had fled to the United States in 1913. "
That you even dare call him an American.
And what is brilliant? Mentioning something which was already written in the newspapers in 1940?
Wauw, brilliant.
Fascinating, wide-ranging lecture. Very informative. Thanks for posting
Thanks for the valuable upload
and
Namasté Chomsky !
The Q&A with Chomsky is often the highlight of such talks.
Thanks for posting .
Your comment is a work of art. I will copy it and remember it always.
Love the graphic at the beginning.
I loved the way that every commentary is a wall text with your "I dunno" in the middle.
That ending had a profound impact... Glad I listened.
Thank you for uploading it!

Wow, he just sits there, legs crossed, and calmly tells it like it is. amazing, Bravo!
a great summary of his on going critique of us foreign policy and the dominance of the corporations in us and the world
Noam chomsky lecture in HD? YES BABY!
Now all i need is a one-on-one debate between Chomsky and Zizek and i can be happy :D
Thank you so much for the upload. Just curious, is there a Q&A?
This just happened so close to me and I didn't know?! DAMN IT!
Thanks for the upload though.
Great Noam Chomski!
Power with it!
Keep on inspiring us!
Very well constructed to understand, even from a "conformers" understanding. Good work
Interesting, would like to see the linguistics part also.
Also any QnA.
A great summary of his on-going critique of the US in foreign policies and the dominance of the corporations in US and the world.
Amen to that(not in a religious way) I find myself doing the same thing except sometimes he keeps me up because his lectures are too interesting!!
he sounds SO excited!
Good to see someone pointing that out. Regarding the monetary system and RBE as proposed by TVP. TZM do well at highlighting the shortfalls of the monetary system aswell. If it weren't for Addendum and Moving Forward many of us would be oblivious to these shortfalls.
Good on you! He's an intelligent guy and, even though he can sometimes be on the dry side and hard to stay focused on sometimes, he's well worth listening to.
i heard rutgers was kind of a big wild place so i was kind of curious about what kind of people you could meet there. im curious is it really frat city like they say or do you find kids who want to have these conversations occasionally? i was always dissappointed in drews lack of a party scene. we had fuckin hippies who couldnt even find acid, it was depressing.
gosh man that's a power statement Mr. Powell stated, one that military in all countries should be aware of.
Thank you very much, Mr Chomsky. It is a sort of consolation if terrible truths are stated by such sane, friendly minds as yours.
Noam Chomsky will go down in history as one of the greatest thinkers of all time.
Yes sir. I agree with your wisdom.
good stuff. we are all lucky that chomsky does a lot of the research for us.
Very well said. I'm older (54) and I agree completely.
who is the historian he refers to at around 48:50? - It sounds like Martin Gilland to me, but I can't find any books or youtube clips under this name.
He already has even though here in America for obvious reasons mainstream mediaites won't book him. I studied him in college during the Sixties. Since then, his reputation as one of the most brilliant minds to ever have walked this planet has spread globally.
There will never be another Noam Chomsky ~a humble master.
Oh, very well said!
i love the first line of the transcript: "legacy gentlemen... long chopsticks"
that is a fantastic idea
Does anyone know where the Sagan debate he is referring to can be found?
The temporal part is finite, but I think you inadvertently got it right the first time.
That may be, but his message is more important now than ever before.
Probably will do if I watch anymore of this
thank u
I like being waken up by a slow patient voice. That's why I think his voice is a good one for waking up the world
Me too, I confess that I played this whole thing but my mind was somewhere else. Strangely, I am sleepy now.
Great man!
We are lucky to have him!
Looking from outside in at the act of war - it really goes back to understanding the inner human brain and the drivers of thought here within all of us; in order to lever this, as it has been going on far too long and is wide spread in leader animal misunderstood settings of behaviors. The difference is made by taking a stand which takes a heart alike Martin Luther King, as well as individuals in the world understanding the dynamics of the brain which in-act such childish leadership wants.
Remember, pride always comes before a fall!
Nicely said. While I don't take everything Chomsky says at face value and without reflection, I appreciate his ability for critical thinking and he has, without a doubt, offered value to our (generalization coming..) dumbed down population.
I want to give this guy a big ol hug.
"According to an embedded MS Word document found in one of the HBGary emails, it involves creating an army of sockpuppets, with sophisticated "persona management" software that allows a small team of only a few people to appear to be many, while keeping the personas from accidentally cross-contaminating each other. Then, to top it off, the team can actually automate some functions so one persona can appear to be an entire Brooks Brothers riot online."
I've only heard a dozen lectures of his but I'm convinced he is a near genius. We need many more intellectuals of his caliber
Absolutly correct.
dude had me at "intelligence is a lethal mutation" I've got to finish this video sometime soon
I did forget to comment on one thing you threw out there. I didn't say I'm older than you and therefore wiser. I said, effectively, that there is only one way to gain wisdom (and it isn't a given that a person will) and that's through time spent learning. There is no way around it. For the record, I've bothered to collect some because, like you, I have a good head on my shoulders and like to use it.
As a human it makes me proud that Chomsky is a fellow human being.
Glad you asked, Slavoj Žižek for example
Don't forget the importance of actually, you know, organizing politically and economically and actually informing yourself and others about the strategical situation... That seems quite a bit more significant than what products you decide to consume within your life time. I would even be tempted to say that what you suggest is to an extent exactly what the powers that be expect you to do...
Love Chomsky's chair here.
Noam Chomsky really reminds me of the Carl Fredricksen in Up(the cartoon).
As he gets older, it's sad to think that someday in the relatively near future we will turn on the news to hear that he had died, never knowing if people took his words to heart and put the planet on a better path.
The hammer quote is originally from Abraham Maslow.
laying out where society had to go, as if the extremely complex decisions facing our society could ever be made by one man. But the second, and more important reason, is that in his view its more important to make poeple aware of what we dont need than potentially alienate them with his views. Alot of people, actually probably the majority in this country agree with some percentage of what he says, and he wants to keep the focus on people uniting and getting rid of what doesnt work so that
That is the most chilling implication in the whole matter. We have lost a group of free thinking people in this nation. They are still lost in the year 2001. It seems, even during current events, they try to find answers to questions in an event that happened almost 12 years ago like some sort of mental time loop.
I will have to look into Richard Wolff.
And as for Ron Paul, he may be a politician but he has a very thorough understanding of world history and economics. He is not like other politicians in this right, He will and has run circles around any other politician when it comes to intellectualism.
Which crimes against humanity are you referring too? BTW I am always up for an intellectual discussion.
He might or might not have gems to pass on to the people. But I can only listen to him for about 10 minutes before his voice bores me to death. It's the verbal equivalent of counting sheep.
Tell me while holding a straight face that the past is more important than the future.
Interestingly Chomsky has described his upbringing as working class intellectual - that is most of his family were not formally educated but they educated themselves. Also he has described MIT has being better at foestering independent thought than other universities. So Chomsky seems to have benefited from particular cultural circumstances that have encouraged his own critical thought.
Thumbs Up for the velcro shoe straps!
What a commanding genetic beginnings! Both his parents were Hebrew scholars!! Can you imagine that? What a dynamic cultural upbringing just by osmosis only, long before graduate and post graduate studies. And imagine his peers. They'd have to be of similar cultural level to even think of maintaining any friendship!
May I have text (subtitle)?
I am not native English
sorry to bother!

00:34:00 over-all theme of this talk?
The towers can be seen falling down at freefall speed from several angles from several videos... also how do you explain building 7? Also the hijackers were more tied to Al Queda then Saudi Arabia
Because people like certainty, which we cannot have. We especially want to be certain about our own beliefs, so we test them against others - even though the debate is highly irrelevant.
As long as debates are constructive and the goal is agreement, then I am all for discussion. But when the motive is to prove that 'I am right' by showing that 'you are wrong', I don't condone it. Sadly that's what people like to do today; not rarely offline but almost always in the anonymous social networks
A truly great man.
exactly how I feel every time I see him speak (:
i understand that you might subconsciously absorb a few of his observations, perhaps even understanding them in the process. though do you think you'll be able to absorb his capabilities, the essence of his brilliance?
My opinion is that people should be held accountable for being manipulated. The trait of allowing themselves to be manipulated is a sign of a week spiritual soul. Which means these people have been week for thousands of years. The motif of: if you don't control your mind someone else will control it for you applies. If people hurt other people because they've allowed themselves to be manipulated, the hurt people deserve to be compensated and the perpetrators of the crime punished.
I am afraid of a world without Noam Chomsky. Although there are many great intellectual, Chris Hedges and others, nobody else does what Noam does--carefully and dispassionately laying out the reality of international and domestic politics and elite agendas.
Whoa who else thought it was Chomsky sitting there before Chomsky came out?!
He is, and History will show you exactly that he is a big one at that.
Knowledge is not out there for everyone to access, in fact there is such a mass of information that it takes a huge amount of time to process it properly and usually most people who have to work, care for their families, their homes, etc simply have no time for that. That's what you call "idiots". Time actually is only one factor of lack of political culture. I'm sure it could be analyzed as one big system of exclusion.
That's why Chomsky is so popular, because he works for the people.
Hi. Sorry for the confusion. Yep, I hit "reply" on the wrong name. No matter. I agree that it may well not be the CIA but explaining the various possibilities is for another venue. I also agree that we are limited in what we see, even after restrictions are lifted from top secret documents. Those black lines are an exercise in frustration. BTW, I'd be interested in your theory re Oswald, Russia, his wife, etc. and you are clearly well versed in the subject.
I am in complete agreement. It is sad seeing how old Chomsky is getting, btw. The ol' brain is still clearly working but it makes one realize how fast life goes by.
with your supported we win
(another one for my favorite-quotes-collection:)
55:42 " In the past 30 years the 'masters of mankind' --as [Adam] Smith [1723-1790] called them-- have abandoned any sentimental concern for the wellfare of their own societies, concentrating instead on short-term gain and huge bonusses... "
I just watched this video & read the comments (above) it makes me sad to see that instead of articulating a common goal or a common language that will help us articulate oppression of government (which we cannot fight without a common language and goal) we are instead fighting each other online. Are we content within our global situation? Is the ruling class which governs a group that represents us? so why aren't we fighting this cause instead of each other?
So true. As we all know, ad hominem assertions are the clearest sign of intelligent discourse. Therefore I must me dumbed down.
turn up the volume
I wish Noam Chomsky could live forever.
well said,...hey are you familiar with "The Sprit Science Channel." The way u talk it seems u may appreciate it...Look it up when u have time....a great series of a lot of cool vids.
cheers!!
damn right man
About 15 minutes in Chomsky mentions the new Israeli submarines, it's really one of the most underreported stories of the last ten years.
Each individual is freed once he comes he reconciles internal conflicts and allows himself to seek truth on this we can agree. Globally as long as we remain a world divided by nations, religions, resources, cultures, languages and races conflict is unavoidable. The concept however of one world ruled by a single global entity does not bode well for the average American. The US/Canada currently represents 60% of global grain exports. The US is poised to surpass Saudi as the largest oil producer.
You have to actually look at the information in front of you. If you read it carefully you see that, while there is some debate about whether the actual letter is in existence, there is no doubt that the information concerning the purpose of the first two wars and mention of the second, took place well before even the Great War. This part is indisputable. It is hard to get accurate information about almost anything of controversy, I find& there is a lot of disappearance of documents-cont...
i wish he was charismatic like cornel west. that's why I haven't started listening to him sooner.
The first of the what we may call the "modern greek philosophers" :)
its pretty hard, because the world isnt "one" its comprised of billions of individuals that have billions of families, millions of communities, millions of corporations etc.
I'm not denying that there are smart Americans--rather I am criticizing American culture, where intellectualism is seen as a negative. Anyone who expresses themselves in an articulate manner, which challenges the social norms and conventional discourse is shunned. Look around you, man. People like Chomsky is merely proof that even an intellectual sewer that is American culture, beautiful flowers can still bloom.
