Noam Chomsky's Visceral Hatreds - 'Noam Chomsky, who spoke at Boston University’s Jacob Sleeper Auditorium on March 2nd as part of the noxious Israeli Apartheid Week and a guest of Students for Justice in Palestine, clearly lives in an academic netherworld of political fantasies, conspiracies, and intellectually-imbecilic distortions of history and fact. As a result, MIT’s professor emeritus of linguistics has become a widely-known, eagerly-followed superstar of the Israel-hating, America-hating Left. The explosive power of Chomsky’s animus for the imperialist West -- Israel and the U.S. in particular -- is only matched by his slavish affection and apologetics for the murderous despots of the Soviet Union, Khmer Rouge, and Viet Cong, whose barbarous excesses were in his mind, of course, predicated by the oppression and exploitation of the tyranny of Western democratic states...'
