"The Assad Regime is a Moral Disgrace": Noam Chomsky on Ongoing Syrian War

Chomsky clearly supports the Syrian Intervention. He has supported American Military interventions into Yugoslavia in the 1990's. Chomsky is old enough and educated enough to know how these interventions are done. The Syrian intervention has followed the same script America has been using since the days of the OSS. America inserts Special Forces soldiers and arms into a country. The Special Forces soldiers train locals to use the weapons and lead them to overthrow the government. The U.S. did this all over Western Europe in during WW2. They parachuted arms and OSS soldiers into Western Europe to fight the Nazis. The French Resistance is the most famous example of this. During the Cold War America stuck to the script using it all over the world in counter insurgency or what Special Forces calls Foreign Internal Defense (FID). The Bay of Pigs is the most infamous example of this strategy. I suggest that anyone reading this peruse the CIA documents on the Bay of Pigs. The script for running these kind of interventions is revealed there.

Chomsky’s authority as a “dissident” is being used to justify the American takeover of Syria. When he calls Assad’s regime “moral disgrace” without giving the pertinent background facts as to why there is a civil war, he is supporting American hegemony in the region. Also Chomsky is a farce. He represents the pale of respectable opinion in America. The American Ruling Class control over the media is totalitarian in nature. Chomsky is clearly a CIA asset/agent. Not only does his stands on key issues make this clear the company he keeps says it as well. He is friends with former CIA Director John M. Deutch.  The fact that he kept his job at MIT also speaks to this fact. If Chomsky were a real threat he would have been gone long ago. There is a long history of intellectuals being used by the CIA/OSS. Philosophers like Bertrand Russell and AJ Ayer worked for the CIA in the 1940’s. They were part of the Non-Communist Left that the CIA cultivated during the Cold War. Chomsky a self-described “anarchist” clearly falls into this class. So, know when you are listening to Chomsky, you are listening to a CIA agent, who has been groomed and cultivated to be your official lefty dissident. His perception as being left gives him persuasive power not only over others that like him but even more over the people that hate him. The conservatives that listen to him are even more persuaded of Assad’s immorality having heard Chomsky deride the man.

Democracy Now and Radio Pacifica are also CIA; they receive money from the same corporations that fund the mainstream media. Except they get it through the backdoor of their “philanthropic foundations.” These foundations are used to cloak CIA funding. Amy Goodman and Alan Nairn made their bones covering East Timor. Nairn has admitted publicly that in order to save his life at the hand of his Indonesian captors. He revealed to them that he is an Office of Naval Intelligence Officer. Intelligence Officers work in pairs or teams which means that Goodman is also an agent.

The CIA is a big tent organization (just don’t be a communist). Chomsky, Goodman and Nairn are a testament to that. So, don’t be fooled when you watch Democracy Now, know that you are watching the "left-wing" mouth pieces of our totalitarian ruling class. Assad’s self-defense casus belli is just. And Chomsky should know that. Instead he chooses to support American Intervention in Syria.
