Noam Chompsky may know his linguistics, but - like Hollywood celebrities - he should learn to STFU when it comes to politics, because he has his head far up his asshole and seldom knows what he's talking about. He appeals to the "Dude, like, the government is, like, evil man! Watch out for the suits!" crowd. *yawn*
BTW, if the U.S. "reevaluates" its foreign policy towards the Middle East THAT WOULD BE A HUGE MISTAKE. I cannot emphasize that point enough. The terrorists will have totally redeemed themselves. Even if we don't like Israel now, even if we passionatly hate Israel, we still have to be steadfast in our support to them, otherwise it will seem like the terrorists had some sway in our way of thinking. If people start thinking that, then prepare for a hell of a lot more terrorist attacks.
