New book by Chomsky on 9-11
Noam Chomsky comments on the the new war on terrorism, U.S. foreign policy, Osama bin Laden, U.S. involvement with Afghanistan, and the long-term implications of America's military attacks abroad. Based on a composite of interviews conducted the 9-11 attacks on the Pentagon and World Trace Center, Chomsky's impeccable knowledge of U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East and South Asia sheds light on the rapidly shifting balance of world power. Speaking out against responding to violence with violence, Chomsky hopes that "an aroused public within the more free and democratic societies can direct policies towards a much more humane and honorable course."
