  1. Noam Chomsky is a Judeo-fascist swine who is America’s leading left-gatekeeper. He has been thoroughly and completely exposed as a crypto-Zionist collaborator by James Petras:

    Fourteen Erroneous Theses

    James Petras has impeccable left/progressive credentials:

    James Petras, a Bartle Professor (Emeritus) of Sociology at Binghamton University, New York, USA, is a revolutionary, anti-imperialist activist and writer. He has worked with the Brazilian landless workers’ movement and the unemployed workers’ movement in Argentina. He is currently a member of the editorial collective of Canadian Dimension. Petras is the author of numerous books and articles, including
    Social Movements and State Power: Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Ecuador, with Henry Veltmeyer (2005)
    Globalization Unmasked: Imperialism in the 21st Century, with Henry Veltmeyer (2001)
    The Dynamics of Social Change in Latin America, with Henry Veltmeyer (2000)
    Empire or Republic: Global Power or Domestic Decay in the US, with Morris Morley (1995)
    Latin America in the Time of Cholera: Electoral Politics, Market Economics, and Permanent Crisis, with Morris Morley (1992)

  2. Dammit the post didn’t take I have to re-write it.

  3. ”Noam Chomsky is a Judeo-fascist swine who is America’s leading left-gatekeeper. He has been thoroughly and completely exposed as a crypto-Zionist collaborator by James Petras…”

    How can Chomsky be a ”crypto-Zionist” when he’s on record advocating a secular state (and not a Jewish one) where Jews and Palestinians have equal rights? In sum, a non-ethnostate.

    Also the term ”Judeo-fascist” like its neo-con cousin ”Islamo-fascist” is meaningless. It corresponds to no identifiable historical phenomenon.

    I’ve read Chomsky extensively and I don’t know anyone who hits Israel or Zionism harder than him.

  4. Wintermute commented on Chomsky in this thread:

    I can see what he’s saying.

  5. But I’m sure wintermute could be right about Chomsky with Chomsky remaining a sincere anti-zionist.

  6. Friedrich, sorry about messing up posting again with the double post

    Here’s an extract from the James Petras essay - it is really awesome and I strongly urge you to read it

    Extract:
    Chomsky’s speeches and writing on the Lobby emphasizes several dubious propositions.

    1) The pro-Israel Lobby is just like any other lobby; it has no special influence or place in US politics.

    2) The power of the groups backing the Israel lobby are no more powerful than other influential pressure groups

    3) The Lobby’s agenda succeeds because it coincides with the interests of the dominant powers and interests of the US State.

    4) The Lobby’s weakness is demonstrated by the fact that Israel is ‘merely a tool’ of US empire building to be used when needed and otherwise marginalized.

    5) The major forces shaping US Middle East policy are “big oil” and the “military-industrial complex”, neither of which is connected to the pro-Israel lobby.

    6) The interests of the US generally coincide with the interests of Israel

    7) The Iraq War, the threats to Syria and Iran are primarily a product of “oil interests” and the “military-industrial complex” and not the role of the pro-Israel lobby or its collaborators in the Pentagon and other government agencies.

    Petras goes on to destroy each and every one of the above. If someone as alert to Judeo-fascist shenaningans as you has been conned by Chomsky, you can only imagine the impact he’s had on the American left

    Chomsky is one smooth operator - no doubt about it.

    As for “Judeo-fascist” there are 3 reasons I use the term:

    a) because “Zionism” is generally understood to refer to Israeli imperialism over Palestinians. There is a need to define imperialism over Americans separately in order to avoid confusion.

    b) because in America’s simple-minded political discourse “fascism” means dictatorial rule by a tiny elite while “democracy” means “rule by the people”. The first definition describes contemporary America while the second no longer does. The word “fascism” is nice because it simultaneously describes what we are and what we’ve lost.

    c) the media barons have spent untold $billions of free advertising to create global consumer recognition for the “fascism” brand name. Since it’s so valuable yet not trademarked, we’d be insane not to take advantage of it - particularly since it so accurately applies to them.

    I’m now sending you an email requesting wintermute’s email. He authorises me to do so in this thread

  7. My instinctive reaction to your points is to say that there seems to be a great deal of apologetics coming from America WN circles on the issues concerning the Zionist entity, aka as “the cancer of the Middle East”. I have no doubt that US and Israeli interests in fact coincide frequently and did even more so during the Cold War.
