Recenzii

“Noam Chomsky, in addition to being a famed linguist, is widely known for his critiques of US foreign policy since the Vietnams era. This volume, updated and revised, collects his thinking on the so-called “War on Terror” and related issues. In essays and interviews, Chomsky draws connections between Western state violence and non-state terrorism, discusses the policy roots of anti-American hostility in the Middle East, analyses media bias with regards to Palestine, addresses how citizens can respond to these issues, and critiques the Obama administration’s approach to Iraq and the Middle East in general, among other topics.” --Eithne O’Leyne, August 2011 Reference and Research Book News

"Noam Chomsky is America’s conscience. His indignant voice cuts through all the official ‘patriotic’ babble to lay bare actual causes and effects in this country’s political policies, both foreign and domestic…this is an immensely valuable resource for Americans who look abroad and honestly wonder, ‘Why don’t they like us?’” --Edward Morris, May-June 2011 ForeWord
