Noam Chomsky: 'Controlling the oil in Iraq puts America in a strong
position to exert influence on the world'

The Monday Interview: Professor of linguistics at the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology
By David McNeill
24 January 2005
Given the impossibly high praise lavished upon him - "One of the finest
minds of the twentieth century" (The New Yorker); "Arguably the most
important intellectual alive" (The New York Times) - it is hard to know
what to expect when Noam Chomsky enters the room, a beam of pure white
light perhaps, or at least the regal swish of academic royalty. Or the
whiff of sulphur. He has also been called a man with a "deep contempt
for the truth" (The Anti-Chomsky Reader) and an appeaser of Islamic
fascism (Christopher Hitchens), among some of the milder criticism.

Without reading the article, I'm assuming that he means this in the
future tense, since we don't really control the oil right now.
