Noam Chomsky

Mr Goat: my position in this thread has always been a consistent "neither Washington nor Moscow but international socialism". I've talked the language of peace throughout and linked only news from the MSM - unlike the tripe posted by many from war porn blogs.

Jaw Jaw not War War is my point of view on this conflict now.

Let's stop the bombs falling and let's start the talks.

Have you listened to anything from Noam Chomsky about the war? His views on it are spot on in my opinion.

Pretty good analogy. And it's held.

Wow... you think the ongoing partition of Cyprus is a positive thing?

Heed this warning kids, Dave's mad utterings are what happens when you prize the nebulous concept of peace at all costs over the wellbeing & livelihoods of actual people.

He misquotes and misunderstands Chompsky's writings often, it's a left wing badge of honour to him but actually exposes the laziness of his opinions

Yes. He's spot on with it all too.

If he was posting in this thread though - a humanist of impeccable pedigree with a towering intellect - he'd get called a Putin stooge.

Can't imagine what that would feel like me

Not a fan of these new student ones on it personally, they all get on my nerves

…..internal division can’t help the Ukraine effort, Zelensky and Klitschko hating each other and not spoken for years. Both patriots, both anti-Russia, I’d have thought they’d put there personal differences aside for the greater good.

I seriously don’t think he does mate, he’s just doing it to be argumentative.

The Ukrainians are doing their utmost to down the bridges over the Seym, which would potentially trap the majority of Russian troops on Ukraine's left flank.

If that happens, the Russian defensive line could be in real danger as they could become encircled, and they could push north behind their lines.

Some insight coming out regarding the situation post the Kursk SMO.

Ukraine’s surprise invasion of the Russian Kursk region has not left the latter’s rail untouched. The attack led to rail congestion in the area, and…

Since Kursk, Lukashenko seems to be in a more conciliatory frame of mind, releasing his political opponents from jail, calling for peace talks and saying that Ukraine has been de-nazified.

Moscow-ally Lukashenko crushed mass pro-democracy protests after an election on Aug. 9, 2020, in which the government was widely condemned for having allegedly falsified results.

And from Belarus media.

You [in Russia] sometimes talk about the Nazis. These Nazis are no longer there. Ukraine has been denazified. Just a few rabid Nazis are left there, but they are no longer the trend

Lukashenko: Ukraine has been denazified; just few rabid Nazis left there

Ukraine has been denazified; there are a few rabid Nazis left there, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said in an interview with the Rossiya TV channel.
