In a recent Intercept interview with the beautiful soul Mehdi Hassan, Noam Chomsky resumed his efforts to recruit the political Left into a scheme to support US imperialism.
In the interview, Chomsky spoke about his reasons for trying “to organize support for opposition to the withdrawal” of US troops from Syria. US troops ought to remain in Syria, he said, to deter a planned Turkish invasion and to prevent what he warned would be the massacre of the Kurds. Yet weeks after the Turks moved into northeastern Syria nothing on the scale of massacres had occurred.
The high-profile anarchist, former champion of international law, and one-time outspoken critic of wars of aggression, supports the uninterrupted invasion of Syria by US forces, despite the fact that the invasion is illegal and contravenes the international law to which he had so frequently sung paeans.

“Yesterday morning, The Intercept dropped a very special episode of their podcast Deconstructed, in which their host Mehdi Hasan interviewed legendary author, father of linguistic philosophy, and political theorist, Noam Chomsky.”

Aunty, Chomsky’s criticism of the US is extremely selective. He applauds the US invasion and occupation of Syria, as you can see from the main body of the text I reblogged yesterday. Unfortunately the main body disappeared for a few hours yesterday (I suspect it was gone when you saw it). However as you can see, Chomsky opposes the withdrawal of US troops from Syria. The Intercept takes the position the US has no business invading other sovereign countries – which is why (I suspect) they dropped the article.
