MORE ON THE TREACHERY OF NOAM CHOMSKY (ARTICLE 31)
by Benjamin Merhav
If anyone is still in need of more proof of Noam Chomsky's loyalty to zionism, nay, of his own deep conviction that the zionist ideology is "correct" (and the same applies to the zionist apartheid regime of Israel too, of course) then his latest interview provides such a proof.
The interview, published by counterpunch.org, 24 August, 2006, under the headline, "The Strong Do as They Can", is an eye-opener for those who still have their eyes closed to see the truth. The headline is very indicative of the essence of zionism as a form of fascism, namely, its reliance on brute force in complete contempt for any human rights or for any human values.
Noam Chomsky, suiting his purported "scholarship"show, is quoting an ancient Greek hisorian, Thucydides ,who lived some 2,500 years ago. However, this epigram,"The Strong Do as They Can", could have been spitted out by Mussolini or by Hitler or by any other fascist dictator. Sure, in ancient societies, ruled by slave owners, such was the norm and the reality, but one would think that it has no place in the 21st century, and you wouldn't expect it to come from the purported guru of the Left, and certainly not from the crowned "greatest intellectual" of our time !
The interviewer, NERMEEN AL-MUFTI, of Al-Ahram, opened the interview with the following question: "Why is Israel given the right to self- defense while Arab countries are denied it?" to which Noam Chomsky replied : "Thucydides gave an answer to that a long time ago: "The strong do as they can, and the weak suffer as they must." It is one of the leading principles of international affairs." In other words, Noam Chomsky, like the zionist rulers of Israel, considers that "might is right" as a leading principle of international affairs ! If anyone would still doubt my conclusion then I would point out that he repeats it at the end of the interview , in reply to the last question as follows :
Q. "I am unable to understand this Israeli arrogance. Are you?"
A. "The maxim of Thucydides again. But it is worth bearing in mind that Israel can go just as far as its protector in Washington permits and supports."
Chomsky's devotees would now jump to his defence and say that in the rest of the interview he expressed his opposition to Israel's military aggression in Palestine and in Lebanon. The reality is that Noam Chomsky does not protest the crimes of the zionist apartheid regime of Israel. He does not demand that the top zionist war criminals be put on trial. He does not demand international sanctions against that racist/fascist regime. His academic style account of the events is true, but his conclusions are not. He does not side with the oppressed Palestinians nor with the victimised Lebanese. He sides with the zionists. He is on the side of the criminal zionist apartheid regime of Israel !
