[lbo-talk] Chomsky regards himself as a supporter of Israel

[Eric Beck]

[Okay, maybe I'm beating this drum too much. But I couldn't resist
this one. I'll shut up about Noam alone for awhile. From the Angry
Arab News Service.]

Chomsky regards himself as a supporter of Israel

Chomsky regards himself as a supporter of Israel and brags about
meeting Walid Jumblat. (Thanks Raed)

PS It is an extremely disturbing interview (forget about the Israeli
reporter here) but the reference to Israel "harming itself" as Chomsky
put it, is telling enough. It is time that we learn that we dont have
to stand and applaud any White Man who comes to our region with some
criticisms of Israel, OK? I mean, imagine if a supporter of the
struggle of blacks against Apartheid were to say: I count myself as a
supporter of the Apartheid regime.
