MORE ON THE TREACHERY OF NOAM CHOMSKY
(article 29) by Benjamin Merhav
On the 1st of July, 2006 I posted my 25th article in this series under the title, More on the Deafening Silence from Noam Chomsky and his Cronies, regarding Present War Crimes by the Zionist Apartheid Regime of Israel,to expose his conspicuous yet not explained dodging of current zionist war crimes in Palestine, the Gaza Strip particularly. He himself would later admit the severity of those crimes by pointing to Israel's rulers plan behind them, namely, annihilate the Palestinian nation, yet he kept silent for over 3 long weeks. To this day Noam Chomsky has not written a single article to protest the current zionist crimes in Palestine and in Lebanon, horrendous crimes, perpetrated with unprecedented impunity by the zionist apartheid regime of Israel !
On the 27th of July Chomsky's website ( http://www.chomsky.info/whatsnew.htm ) published what purported to be a protest letter dated 19 July. It had no title other than "A letter from Chomsky and others on the recent events in the Middle East ", a sort of update on what Chomsky thinks about "events" in the Middle East, and that's all. Furthermore, he would later claim that it was not his letter, and that he had signed a letter authored by someone else. However, by then he and /or his cronies must have got wind of my articles, which exposed their dodge and apathy, because on the 3rd of August his website published a new letter on the same subject. This time the letter had a title : "War Crimes and Lebanon".
That title raises more questions - such as : war crimes by whom ? what about the zionist apartheid regime of Israel ? - questions which are added to those raised by the letter itself. Thus, for example, the letter describes the Qana massacre as a war crime. There were rather multiple zionist war crimes and zionist crimes against humanity perpetrated in Qana, not just the one war crime. The murder of each of the 34 children there was both a war crime and a crime against humanity as well, and the same applies, of course ,to the other Lebanese civilians murdered by the zionist bomb there. Also, this mass murder occured for the second time in the same village ! What's more, the very zionist invasion of Lebanon is the biggest war crime of all ! Why was there no mention of these facts in the letter ? Where is the protest ? This letter too has very feeble protest in it .
The only actual difference between this and the first letter is in the last paragraph which opens as follows : "We offer our solidarity and support to the victims of this brutality and to those who mount a resistance against it". In the first letter Chomsky described the zionist crimes in Lebanon as mere "provocations" and the Lebanese resistance as "counter provocations". Now this letter states the truth, namely, that the Lebanese resistance is mounted against the brutality of the aggressors, therefore justified and deserves solidarity and support. However, the terms zionism and the zionist apartheid regime of Israel are not there,whereas they should be, as they are the base and the essence of the war crimes both in Palestine and in Lebanon. The result is that this letter too can be regarded as a very feeble protest,and much less as solidarity with the victims of the current zionist war crimes in Palestine and in Lebanon.
Three days later a third letter was posted on Chomsky's website - a carbon copy of the previous one, except for the title. Chomsky replaced the title "war crimes in Lebanon" with "Lebanon solidarity letter".
However, what is worrying about this letter is that some Palestinian signatories were added to it, including the famous Palestinian poet : Mahmoud Darwish. Do Mahmoud Darwish and his mates agree with Chomsky that all those current military aggressions by Israel in Palestine and in Lebanon have got nothing to do with zionism nor with the zionist apartheid regime of Israel ? Do they accept Noam Chomsky as a friend, no matter how treacherous he has been to the Palestinian cause ? Or may be they themselves have turned pro-zionist too - have they ?
