Noam Chomsky: Distorted Morality

Noam Chomsky is a renowned scholar, the founder of the modern science of linguistics, a philosopher, a political and social analyst, a media critic, an author of more than 70 books, a winner of numerous prizes and awards and ranks with Marx, Shakespeare and the Bible as one of the 10 most quoted sources in the humanities. In this remarkable DVD, Noam Chomsky offers a riveting but devastating critique of America's current "War On Terror" - arguing, in fact, that it is a logical impossibility for such a war to be taking place. Two lectures are featured. The first took place at Harvard University JFK School Of Government. The second lecture was held at Massachusetts Institute Of Technology where he's been a professor for over forty years. Professor Chomsky presents his reasoning with astonishing and refreshing clarity, drawing from a wealth of historical knowledge and analysis. "Only those who are entirely ignorant of modern history will be surprised by the course of events, or by the justifications that are provided..." Anyone who is serious about trying to understand world events since September 11, 2001 cannot afford to miss this.
