- I was unfamiliar with the literary skills and oratorical
persuasiveness of Noam Chomsky until a few years ago when I first heard
him over KPFK (Pacifica) radio. I quickly found myself recording his talks
off the radio and listening to them carefully. I was greatly impressed.
Whether he's talking about the corruptive influence of the corporate mentality
in American society or the sins of the Bush regime, you can't help but
be impressed by the cogency of his arguments and the acuteness of his mind.
Chomsky is one sharp cookie, to be sure, but is the Harvard professor really
the liberal, leftist, anti-government 'critic' that we are led to believe
he is, or does he function more as a gatekeeper, feigning the role of muckraker
and champion of injustice, while all the time carrying water for the very
power structures that he claims to rail against? Is he really exposing
government collusion in criminal and treasonous behavior, or is he containing
the limits of that exposure within certain 'acceptable' corridors of public
discourse?

- These articles by Michael Morrissey, Bob Feldman and Benjamin Merhav among others, may get you thinking twice
about Noam Chomsky and similar nationally touted "critics" of
the government. Chomsky, in particular, is thought of as the creme-de-la-creme
of anti-government muckrakers while he simultaneously embraces every
facet of the government's cover story when it comes to who was responsible
for killing JFK, or the origin of AIDS, or the Vietnam War turn around
following the JFK assassination, or 9-11. Despite appearances to the contrary,
Chomsky sides with the government's version of events with virtually every
major 'conspiracy' scandal to emerge in the past 45 years.
