HelenaBrors: Henry Kissinger, Noam Chomsky find rare common ground over Ukraine war
birthandbiology: This. Is indeed a thing of beauty. Guardian journalist who is not (ahem) noted supporter of woman's rights is reminded by Noam Chomsky that it is only since 1975 that women have been persons, not property, in the US. Lest we forget. Lest we, indeed, forget.

davidcnswanson: “unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.” A Google search for this phrase finds “About 2,430,000 results” (in 0.42 seconds).
Out of curiosity, we might search for “unprovoked invasion of Iraq.” The search yields “About 11,700 results” (in 0.35 seconds)

Emran_Feroz: A must-read. Looking forward to read Chomsky's answer.
NickWilliams33: An excellent response to Chomsky's recent absurd comments which whitewash Russia's invasion of Ukraine, show his appalling ignorance of Crimea as he implicitly blames NATO and engages in whataboutism w/regard to war crimes committed by Russian forces.

GundergroundJG: "Russia is not the only nuclear power in the world. Other countries, such as China, India, Pakistan, and North Korea are watching. Just imagine what will happen if they learn that nuclear powers can get whatever they want using nuclear blackmail."
dingledodie77: Chomsky getting rightfully roasted.
"Such an attitude denies the agency of Ukraine and is a slap in the face to millions of Ukrainians who are risking their lives for the desire to live in a free country."

arpitrage: Chomsky argued that recursion was the defining human language trait. It's been seen to a limited extent, apparently, among Japanese songbirds and forest monkeys.
Noam Chimpsky over here seems to have it in spades

SamRamani2: Noam Chomsky says that Henry Kissinger should be prosecuted for war crimes. But they both align on Ukraine.

Of course, Eisenhower said what he said about the MIC three days before leaving office - as president, he sung a different tune. Noam Chomsky: "If the Nuremberg principles were applied every post-WW2 would be hanged."

TheMysteriousHC: "Resist" of Boston MA (whoever they are) ludicrously misjudged me with an endorsement by Noam Chomsky, an arrogant person who never retracts or apologizes, and has a Manichaean view of people, so in his eyes Faurisson is a saint, while >50% of Israelis are pure evil, nothing else
ancapquotes: "If we don't believe in free expression for people we despise, we don't believe in it at all." - Noam Chomsky
TomLondon6: Concentration of wealth yields concentration of political power. And concentration of political power gives rise to legislation that increases and accelerates the cycle
- Noam Chomsky
WhirlwindWisdom: The nature of a political settlement, the general nature of it, has been pretty clear on all sides for quite some time. In fact, if the U.S. had been willing to consider them, there might not have been an invasion at all.
Chomsky
WhirlwindWisdom: The right question is: What is the best thing to do to save Ukraine from a grim fate, from further destruction? And that’s to move towards a negotiated settlement.
Chomsky
H33LToe: I’ve heard Noam Chomsky called a tankie. This doesn’t make sense. He’s in favor of sanctions against Russia and aiding Ukraine militarily so long as these don’t lead to escalation and more death for Ukrainians. Is he a tankie for wanting negotiations rather than escalation?
Zorro72548822: Because, as the 93yo Noam Chomsky recently said, it doesn’t take a geopolitical expert to see the likely disastrous consequences of this US aggression – any 10yo child not brainwashed by our “education” system could see it. So-called liberals are the ones successfully brainwashed
WhirlwindWisdom: WWI — If you read U.S. liberal intellectuals, they were taken. They accepted it. They said: Yes, we have to stop these horrible crimes that the British Ministry of Information is concocting in order to mislead us.
Chomsky
WhirlwindWisdom: It’s interesting to look at the reaction to all of this in the more civilized part of the world, the global south. They look at it; they condemn the invasion, say it’s a horrible crime. But the basic response is: What’s new?…
