The SICK, TWISTED Mind of Noam Chomsky |
The SICK, TWISTED Mind of Noam Chomsky
WITHOUT QUESTION, the most devious, the most dishonest and -- in this
hour of his nation's grave crisis - the most treacherous intellect in
America belongs to MIT professor Noam Chomsky. On the 150 campuses
that have mounted "teach-ins" and rallies against America's right to
defend herself; on the
streets of Genoa and Seattle where "anti-globalist" anarchists have
attacked the symbols of markets and world trade; among the
demonstrators at Vieques who wish to deny our military its training
grounds; and wherever young people manifest an otherwise
incomprehensible rage against their country, the inspirer of their
loathing and the instructor of their hate is most likely this man.
There are many who ask how it is possible that our most privileged and
educated youth should come to despise their own nation - a free, open,
democratic society - and to do so with such ferocious passion. They
ask how it is possible for American youth to even consider lending
comfort and aid to the Osama bin Ladens and the Saddam Husseins (and
the Communists before them). A full answer would involve a search of
the deep structures of the human psyche, and its irrepressible
longings for a redemptive illusion. But the short answer is to be
found in the speeches and writings of an embittered academic and his
intellectual supporters.
For forty years, Noam Chomsky has turned out book after book, pamphlet
after pamphlet and speech after speech with one message, and one
message alone: America is the Great Satan; it is the fount of evil in
the world. In Chomsky 's demented universe, America is responsible not
only for its own bad deeds, but for the bad deeds of others, including
those of the terrorists who struck the World Trade Center and the
Pentagon. In this attitude he is the medium for all those who now
search the ruins of Manhattan not for the victims and the American
dead, but for the "root causes" of the catastrophe that befell them.
One little pamphlet of Chomsky's - What Uncle Sam Really Wants - has
already sold 160,000 copies (1), but this represents only the tip of
the Chomsky iceberg. His venomous message is spread on tapes and CDs,
and the campus lecture circuit; he is promoted at rock concerts by
superstar bands such as Pearl Jam, Rage Against the Machine, and U-2
(whose lead singer Bono called Chomsky a "rebel without a pause"). He
is the icon of Hollywood stars like Matt Damon whose genius character
in the Academy Award-winning film Good Will Hunting is made to invoke
Chomsky as the go-to authority for political insight.
According to the Chicago Tribune, Noam Chomsky is "the most often
cited living author. Among intellectual luminaries of all eras,
Chomsky placed eighth, just behind Plato and Sigmund Freud." On the
Web, there are more chat room references to Noam Chomsky than to Vice
President ***** Cheney and
10 times as many as there are to Democratic congressional leaders
Richard Gephardt and Tom Daschle. This is because Chomsky is also the
political mentor of the academic left, the legions of Sixties radicals
who have entrenched themselves in American universities to
indoctrinate students in their anti-American creeds. The New York
Times calls Chomsky "arguably the most important intellectual alive,"
and Rolling Stone - which otherwise does not even acknowledge the
realm of the mind - "one of the most respected and
influential intellectuals in the world."(2)
In fact, Chomsky's influence is best understood not as that of an
intellectual figure, but as the leader of a secular religious cult -
as the ayatollah of anti-American hate. This cultic resonance is
recognized by his
followers. His most important devotee, David Barsamian, is an obscure
public radio producer on KGNU in Boulder Colorado, who has created a
library of Chomsky screeds on tape from interviews he conducted with
the master, and has converted them into pamphlets and books as well.
In the introduction to one such offering, Barsamian describes
Chomsky's power over his disciples: "Although decidedly secular, he is
for many of us our rabbi, our preacher, our rinpoche, our pundit, our
imam, our sensei."(3)
The theology that Chomsky preaches is Manichean, with America as its
evil principle. For Chomsky no evil however great can exceed that of
America, and America is also the cause of evil in others. This is the
key to the mystery of September 11: The devil made them do it. In
every one of the 150 shameful demonstrations that took place on
America's campuses on September 20, these were the twin themes of
those who agitated to prevent America from taking up arms in her
self-defense: America is responsible for the "root causes" of this
criminal attack; America has done worse to others.
In his first statement on the terrorist attack, Chomsky's response to
Osama bin Laden's calculated strike on a building containing 50,000
innocent human beings was to eclipse it with an even greater atrocity
he was confident he could attribute to former president Bill Clinton.
Chomsky's infamous September 12 statement "On the Bombings" began:
The terrorist attacks were major atrocities. In scale they may not
reach the level of many others, for example, Clinton's bombing of the
Sudan with no credible pretext, destroying half its pharmaceutical
supplies and killing unknown numbers of people (no one knows, because
the US blocked an inquiry
at the UN and no one cares to pursue it).(4)
Observe the syntax. The opening reference to the actual attacks is
clipped and bloodless, a kind of rhetorical throat clearing for
Chomsky to get out of the way, so that he can announce the real
subject of his concern - America's crimes. The accusation against
Clinton is even slipped into the text, weasel fashion, as though it
were a modifier, when it is actually the substantive message itself.
It is a message that says: Look away, America, from the injury that
has been done to you, and contemplate the injuries you have done to
them. It is in this sleight of hand that Chomsky reveals his true
gift, which is to make the victim, America, appear as an even more
heinous perpetrator than the criminal himself. However bad this may
seem, you have done worse.
In point of fact - and just for the record - however ill-conceived
Bill Clinton's decision to launch a missile into the Sudan, it was not
remotely comparable to the World Trade Center massacre. It was, in its
very design, precisely the opposite - a defensive response that
attempted to minimize casualties. Clinton's missile was launched in
reaction to the blowing up of two of our African embassies, the murder
of hundreds of innocent people and the injury to thousands, mostly
African civilians. It was designed with
every precaution possible to prevent the loss of innocent life. The
missile was fired at night, so that no one would be in the building
when it was hit. The target was selected because the best information
available indicated it was not a pharmaceutical factory, but a factory
producing biological weapons. Chomsky's use of this incident to
diminish the monstrosity of the terrorist attack is a typical Chomsky
maneuver, an accurate measure of his instinctive mendacity, and an
index of the anti-American dementia, which infuses everything he
writes and says.
This same psychotic hatred shapes the "historical" perspective he
offered to his disciples in an interview conducted a few days after
the World Trade Center bombing. It was intended to present America as
the devil incarnate - and therefore a worthy target of attack for the
guerilla forces of "social justice" all over the world. This was the
first time America itself - or as Chomsky put it the "national
territory" - had been attacked since the War of 1812. Pearl Harbor
doesn't count in Chomsky's calculus because Hawaii was a
"colony" at the time. The fact that it was a benignly run colony and
that it is now a proud state of the Union counts for nothing, of
course, in Chomsky' s eyes.
During these years [i.e., between 1812 and 1941], the US annihilated
the indigenous population (millions of people), conquered half of
Mexico, intervened violently in the surrounding region, conquered
Hawaii and the Philippines (killing hundreds of thousands of
Filipinos), and in the past half century particularly, extended its
resort to force throughout much of the world. The number of victims is
colossal. For the first time, the guns have been directed the other
way. That is a dramatic change.(5)
Listening to Chomsky, you can almost feel the justice of Osama bin
Laden's strike on the World Trade Center.
If you were one of the hundreds of thousands of young people who had
been exposed to his propaganda - and the equally vile teachings of his
academic disciples - you too would be able to extend your outrage
against America into the present.
a.. According to Chomsky, in the first battle of the postwar struggle
with the Soviet Empire, "the United States was picking up where the
Nazis had left off."
a.. According to Chomsky, during the Cold War, American operations
behind the Iron Curtain included "a 'secret army' under US-Nazi
auspices that sought to provide agents and military supplies to armies
that had been established by Hitler and which were still operating
inside the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe through the early 1950s."
a.. According to Chomsky, in Latin America during the Cold War, U.S.
support for legitimate governments against Communist subversion led to
US complicity under John F. Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson, in "the
methods of Heinrich Himmler's extermination squads."
a.. According to Chomsky, there is "a close correlation worldwide
between torture and U.S. aid."
a.. According to Chomsky, America "invaded" Vietnam to slaughter its
people, and even after America left in 1975, under Jimmy Carter and
Ronald Reagan, "the major policy goal of the US has been to maximize
repression and suffering in the countries that were devastated by our
violence. The degree of the cruelty is quite astonishing." (6)
a.. According to Chomsky, "the pretext for Washington's terrorist wars
[i.e., in Nicaragua, El Salvador, Chile, Guatemala, Iraq, etc.] was
self-defense, the standard official justification for just about any
monstrous act, even the Nazi Holocaust." (7)
a.. In sum, according to Chomsky, "legally speaking, there's a very
solid case for impeaching every American president since the Second
World War. They've all been either outright war criminals or involved
in serious war crimes."(8)
What decent, caring human being would not want to see America and its
war criminals brought to justice?
According to Chomsky, what America really wants is to steal from the
poor and give to the rich. America's crusade against Communism was
actually a crusade "to protect our doctrine that the rich should
plunder the poor."(9) That is why we busied ourselves in launching a
new crusade against terrorism after the end of the Cold War:
Of course, the end of the Cold War brings its problems too. Notably,
the technique for controlling the domestic population has had to
shift. New enemies have to be invented. It becomes hard to disguise
the fact that the real enemy has always been 'the poor who seek to
plunder the rich' - in particular, Third World miscreants who seek to
break out of the service role.(10)
According to Chomsky, America is afraid of the success of Third World
countries and does not want them to succeed on their own. Those who
threaten to succeed like the Marxist governments of North Vietnam,
Nicaragua and Grenada America regards as viruses. According to
Chomsky, during the Cold War, "except for a few madmen and nitwits,
none feared [Communist] conquest - they were afraid of a positive
example of successful development. "What do you do when you have a
virus? First you destroy it, then you inoculate potential victims, so
that the disease does not spread. That's basically the US strategy in
the Third World.".(11)
No wonder they want to bomb us.
Schooled in these big lies, taught to see America as Greed Incarnate
and a political twin of the Third Reich, why wouldn't young people -
with no historical memory - come to believe that the danger ahead lies
in Washington rather than Baghdad or Kabul?
It would be easy to demonstrate how on every page of every book and in
every statement that Chomsky has written the facts are twisted, the
political context is distorted (and often inverted) and the historical
record is systematically traduced. Every piece of evidence and every
analysis is subordinated to the overweening purpose of Chomsky's
lifework, which is to justify an idée fixe - his pathological hatred
of his own country.
It would take volumes, however, to do this and there really is no
need. Because every Chomsky argument exists to serve this end, a fact
transparent in each offensive and preposterous claim he makes. Hence,
the invidious comparison of Clinton's misguided missile and the
monstrous World Trade Center attack.
In fact the Trade Center and the Pentagon targets of the terrorists
present a real political problem for American leftists, like Chomsky,
who know better than to celebrate an event that is the almost
predictable realization of their agitations and their dreams. The
destroyed buildings are the very symbols of the American empire with
which they have been at war for fifty years. In a memoir published on
the eve of the attack, the 60s American terrorist Bill Ayers recorded
his joy at striking one of these very targets:
"Everything was absolutely ideal on the day I bombed the Pentagon. The
sky was blue. The birds were singing. And the bastards were finally
going to get what was coming to them."(12) In the wake of September
11, Ayers - a "Distinguished Professor of Education[!] at the
University of Illinois - had to feverishly backtrack and explain that
these revealing sentiments of an "anti-war" leftist do not mean what
they obviously do. Claiming to be "filled with horror and grief,"
Ayers attempted to reinterpret his terrorist
years as an effort to explore his own struggle with "the intricate
relationships between social justice, commitment and resistance."(13)
Chomsky is so much Ayers' superior at the lie direct that he works the
same denial into his account of the World Trade Center bombing itself.
Consider first the fact that the Trade Center is the very symbol of
American capitalism and "globalization" that Chomsky and his radical
comrades despise. It is Wall Street, its twin towers filled on that
fateful day with bankers, brokers, international traders, and
corporate lawyers - the hated men and women of the "ruling class," who
- according to Chomsky - run the global order. The twin towers are the
palace of the Great Satan himself. They are the belly of the beast,
the object of Chomsky's lifelong righteous wrath. But he is too clever
and too cowardly to admit it. He knows that, in
the hour of the nation's grief, the fact itself is a third rail he
must avoid. And so he dismisses the very meaning of the terrorists'
target in these words:
The primary victims, as usual, were working people: janitors,
secretaries, firemen, etc. It is likely to be a crushing blow to
Palestinians and other poor and oppressed people.
Chomsky's deception which attempts to erase the victims who were not
merely "janitors, secretaries, firemen, etc.," tells us more than we
might care to know about his own standard of human concern.
That concern is exclusively reserved for the revolutionary forces of
his Manichean vision, the Third World oppressed by American evil.
Chomsky's message to his disciples in this country, the young on our
college campuses, the radicals in our streets, the moles in our
government offices, is a message of action and therefore needs to be
attended to, even by those who will never read his rancid works. To
those who believe his words of hate, Chomsky has this instruction:
The people of the Third World need our sympathetic understanding and,
much more than that, they need our help. We can provide them with a
margin of survival by internal disruption in the United States.
Whether they can succeed against the kind of brutality we impose on
them depends in large part on what happens here.(14)
This is the voice of the Fifth Column left. Disruption in this country
is what the terrorists want, and what the terrorists need, and what
the followers of Noam Chomsky intend to give them.
In his address before Congress on September 19, President Bush
reminded us: "We have seen their kind before. They are the heirs of
all the murderous ideologies of the 20th century. By sacrificing human
life to serve their radical visions, by abandoning every value except
the will to power, they follw in the path of fascism, Nazism and
totalitarianism. And they will follow that path all the way to where
it ends in history's unmarked grave of discarded lies."
President Bush was talking about the terrorists and their sponsors
abroad. But he might just as well have been talking about their fifth
column allies at home.
It's time for Americans who love their country to stand up, and defend
it.

No, its time for Americans to embrace people like Noam Chomsky, who are
willing to challenge the status quo of "follow the leader" when it comes
to politics in the US. One only needs to take a look at congress with
people who get up and boast about how much they love the president how
great a job he has done. The congress is there to *debate* not to suck
up for hours on end. If all the congress is going to do is just that,
you might as well get rid of it, at least then some money would be saved
on not having a useless assembly.
