- In a lecture reaching far beyond the designated topic of Middle East peace prospects, Noam Chomsky is sharply critical of Israel, India, Pakistan, President Obama, and the U.S. - which he calls a "rogue nation" and "the Godfather." He accuses the U.S. of controlling Israel and undermining the two-state solution that would establish a Palestinian state.

Professor Noam Chomsky, the REALLY TRUTHFUL, JUST, and GREAT GENIUS OF ALL TIMES is a great blessing from the ALMIGHTY GOD, all of his lectures and videos must be heard and watched by everyone in the World to learn the truth about the historical criminal actions of all evil powers against the oppressed common people of the world.
Thank you Mr. Chomsky! I love listening to your talks, i have most of your books and even research your earliest works... I don’t mind rewatching your lectures! I’m but a mum from Western Australia who had a better understanding of the world through your teachings! I feel indebted to you for all the knowledge you tirelessly share....I pray for your safety, prosperity and amazing health...forthe world needs a brilliant light like you! Much RESPECT!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
if you are in Australia and aware of what is happening then why not write to your member of AustralianGOV and ask how is it that they keep supporting Genocide and the NKRI Islamist state..?
I ditto same sentiments, Mrs. Whatuira.
Somehow Noam has lost his mind in his old age. Possibly the fear of the pandemic drove him to becoming a bootlicking propagandist for the establishment he has been holding accountable
He is probably smart enough to use the fact he can do nothing and has joined them.probably money is his motivation.
Guy in audience asks "the public was disappointed and we got Reagan, what are we going to get this time?" Oof.
The question at 1:00:00 became prophetic :).
imma cry now
Well said by Chomsky
Yep and it’s very unfortunate I really do hate this country but like Howard zinn says if I move I don’t wanna be a victim of American foreign policy
I was going to say the same. And I think many in the US feel we are again repeating this trend.
He correctly, though obviously, predicted that people would become disappointed with Obama but nobody in their wildest nightmares thought Donald Trump.
he has been speaking truth to power for 50 years
Dr. Chomsky is the greatest intellectual of the 20th and 21st Centuries.
Hopefully not the 21st.
He's great but that's a real tall order. I'm hoping for a sage who is an internet power user/biohacking learner who takes academia to a level we haven't seen yet because the tools weren't available.
so why does he say such bad things about things about US foreign policy??
Fully agree with you about the 20th and 21st centuries, but what about the whole previous period between our times and the times of Socrates, Plato, and Aristoteles then?!?
@@laynekay2271 I think you may be the first person to finish the quote! Dr. Chomsky would be proud.
Thank you🙏
I will watch this in full later
One of my favorite Chomsky q&a's
Anyone in any doubt that Chomsky is the greatest living mind on public affairs need only check his response to the question about disappointed expectations around Obama (about 1:03). Not sure exactly when this was filmed (guessing early/mid Obama first term so 2010/11) BUT HIS RESPONSE PREFIGURES THE TRUMP PHENOMENON:- something which no one even saw coming when it actually happened 5/6 years later! EERIE! The more exposure I have to this man, the more AWED I am by his mind. Listening to him (especially the way he looks now at 94, with the beard) gives the truest insight of what it must have been like to for a believer to be in the presence of one of those Old Testament prophets. I will know a new depth of existential sadness when he passes...
I was amazed at Noam's accurate prediction of the backlash to the con job perpetrated on Americans by the Obama campaign: The rise of Trump! That's quite a legacy for Obama.
noam starts at 06:30
6:20
I hope he gets to stay alive for a real effort towards democratic societies .. i hope he gets to feel like he made an impact .. he did make an impact on my life . Thats for sure but like he says its not up to 1 man to solve this thing its up to every last one of us to bring better democracy not corruption lies abuse enforcement punishment condemnation and tyranny .
This guy has guts.
Don't jinx him, the CIA might clean up and down.
Not really! He's a limo-communist
❤❤❤❤Thank you for answering a lot of my questions even if I’m not there
VOICE OF TRUTH.. MAY GOD BLESS YOU
Oh how prescient you are Noam, God bless you, you national treasure!!!
…. a GLOBAL treasure, you mean!
Thank you so much for this upload :) Love this man, I wish I was his student
You are his student, every time you listen.
Me too
you are now...
@@JohnMcDonnellThe3rd 👌🏻👌🏽👌
He speaks always so clearly!
Bravo Professor. Thank you for the good lecture.
Thank you very much!
A more succinct answer to the last question would be: "One person's terrorist is another person's freedom fighter".
I don't understand why Chomsky has not yet received a Nobel Laureate Prize
bacause you didnt pay attention to his lectures.
US would block it and besides, I dont think he would accept it.
One of his peers said about a government power elite atrocity "against the public's will" while shaking his head "no." I've seen that way around censorship many times. That may have something to do with it, the people will this shit, and their big death machine. So who is he speaking to? Who will help? Not Americans I guess, they ask for mass murder globally because by magical thinking bombing strangers keeps you safe said Bernie Sanders. I guess there is a machine that doesn't love people but loves giving and helping things in outrageous ways like child sexual assault and feels beautiful therefore is cancer. The superior species of animals that don't rape their children need help, we can start by rescuing them from the meat industry.
He’s way too good for it.
Hahaha…ripped the words right out of my consciousness. Well said.
Does anyone know where he finds thes reports?
Live by what you know is right and don't take a back step
Noam is the Man!
…. One of the very, very few true Homo SAPIENS.
How could one have a discussion evaluating Apartheid within green line and not mention the Nation- State Law?
Or the implications of getting married to a non- citizen for a Palestinian vs a Jew?
Or even the fact that Palestinians don’t qualify for state-sanctioned housing in the form of Israeli colonies, though are forced to pay for them?
Or that Israel’s laws are, by design, geared to push Palestinians gradually to emigrate, and therefore to eventually fall under more brazen categories of Apartheid, a treatment reserved for Palestinians alone?
And I have no problem in saying I do not understand the relevance of Klug’s suggestion that if we label Israel as guilty of atrocities, we must label neighboring regimes as guilty of those same atrocities. As if that offers any justification for subsidizing and supporting a system of injustice against Palestinians.
Just in time we just killed the top General in Iran..
Jan 2020....this man is a professor.
Sovereign lords intention in the first place
one of the man on earth that speaks how it is. thank you
Like a son needs fathers direction and guidance
This was not 12 years ago. Maybe 5 I think
Can you see
Fulfill the consequences -to the end
Would it not be better to halt the machine and save the lives which would be lost in its explosion?
Sorry I am hysterically laughing.
No, we r laughing my sheep. Keep sleeping
24:40 “Iran” the ruling clerics of the country they pretty much own. Isn’t there something fundamentally amiss when the political hierarchy “own” a country??
A small number of people pretty much own the United States as well
Theocracies are a bad thing
Good guy, this one.
I want to listen to Chomsky. Introductions are too long.
What a man
Ol' Noam sure loves Iran.
Methinks , there is much truth to what he says !
Britain is a majority protestant which was from Germany Lutheran church they were missionaries coming from Germany and it created the protestant religion and that mission was carried throught the world which causes conflict between Catholics and protestants throughout the world ,there are many different groups of muslims and conflicts are a result in UK its Hindus, Sikhs,muslims conflicts ,now people of Pakistan and other similar groups the extremist groups are causing unrest in cities of Britain and giving rise to groups like
Edl,national front, racists and it's just causing security and worries specially our children are in dangerous situations ANd the corruption is a way of life and no one gives a monkeys so better to have gurkha soldiers guard Britain and Europe.
AGAINST terrorism and corruption there should an independent body to bring about justice equality and peace
Chomsky is a genius in linguistics but a raving lunatic in world affairs. 52:39. Chomsky declared that the American conducted “massive war on terrorism that killed millions of Africans.” Chomsky’s claim is so ridiculous that Osama Ben Laden would not have made.
BUILDING 7🏢?
Nobel prizes are strictly political!
The concept of one World is not clear than the concept of ONE EARTH FOR ALL THE CITIZENS OF THIS WORLD .SORRY IF I AM IN THIS dilemma.
Lo-e that dude ! TY
Since yall like old dudes talking about war crimes 6:15
Politician/marketplace speak 101, hope and change - dope and chains.
Chomsky one of the worst system agents or THE worst?
Chomsky is to smart not to know about the department of public affairs which is the utility that the news media is plugged into the department of justice with. The professor knows more about it than most in justice you can bet your balls on that.
nuclear tipped torpedo not as useful as trident
We now more than ever before urgency need people like Noam to stand up to what we know is wrong. As it is written resist not evil.
He's a linguist, how can he help?
The word of JEHOVAH is alive
Pkay thank you...Now go away and do not keep showing up in my queue
Why is he being sympathetic to the criminal regime of Mullahs in Iran?
I wonder if he gets paid by the Mullahs?
I’m disappointed in Chomsky who has not seen Iran’s expansionism ambitions, wanting to export its Jihad version to the rest of the region.
nonsense
Chomsky is " right on the money" as the saing goes!
Ok
NOTHING NEW" HERE THEN.

His tie is sickening! Who is guiding DRESSING TO THIS POOR MAN?
You mean the educator, the school teacher, yes I want to take a pair of scissors and cut it off myself. But then I remember this is about 12 years ago.🤣
Impeccable Source = Amnesty International? Good one, Noam! How can one linguist talk about anything that pops into his mind and so many people listens! He just talks and talks and talks ...... and says nothing.
Well that's just not true. Just because you disagree with one point made by someone does not mean everything else they say is meaningless, or also disagreeable.
He is a Jewish who hates his own kind and his country.
@@sunshinepatsoph4219 he hates fascist Israelis.
biggo pile!
now you undestand trump voters

Why does YT keep diverting me to this pinko?
Wow, sympathy leads to communism. I love your closed minded mentality.
Probably trying to educate you.
the psychopaths are making pinkos look good
This guy puts me to sleep. Something about his voice and smugness and matter of fact kind of approach..its easy to say this was obvious and that was clear so why did they do it.... It's easy to ridicule after the fact but it's not so clear while events are unfolding in real time and decisions have to be made quickly no matter how informed a president is.... His view just doesn't fit the real world..
Thank you.
His analysis is honest and reality based. Get back to studying what is going on in the world and use independent search engines, if history books are not available to you. If you only have time for a video, look at Pulitzer Prize winner Oliver Stones’s documentary, “The Untold History of the United States“.This is happening again, the United States has been funding the 4 N_ZI groups in Ukraine for 8 years. The longer they (the US) can keep this war going, by attacking people in the Donbas, and please know that the Russians have been showing the remnants of the American shells and missiles to the UN for that entire time, and the more money the West can funnel to the Elite Weapons manufacturers, and also drive the prices on oil way up in the west. Oil is King that is why we do not have clean energy. I have made my retirement possible by watching the signals of where the next war will start. The last president who told anything truthful was Eisenhower, I heard his departure speech before Kennedy came in. And even he could not oppose them or he would have died in office. Please learn, so your children and their children don’t live through the same thing.
Nothing he's criticized could be excused away with, "decisions have to be made quickly." Everything mentioned was planned over a fairly long time and done with motivations that were concealed from the public. Most of what he talks about has been extensively documented.
Because who better to judge these important topics, than a Linguistics Professor, with ZERO Real World Experience himself in Government, Foreign Policy, or Diplomacy, and whose criticisms of others all have the great luxury of 20/20 Hindsight-Right???
UGH-It is a tragedy that anybody actually takes this ridiculous old man seriously! SMH.

@@mck1972 Btw being old is not a bad thing lol, getting old is not a choice.
And you don't need experience in Government, Foreign Policy, etc to talk about these topics, proof Trump is now the president of the USA with Zero experience ;)
@@mohamedboualil9632 note that the fact that Trump is president of the US does not necessarily give him more credibility on these matters. I concur with you however that having a degree in one discipline does not logically exclude having valuable insights into another discipline.
Yeah, right. I guess all of those who have experience in these matters have done all of us all kinds of justice. That's the problem with world governments; they're run by politicians
