Not that this is really relevant to this topic, but that's simply not true. He doesn't support Russia's interests, he's simply acknowledging that when dealing with powerful nations, we have to consider their interests and reach compromises where their interests conflict with ours in order to avoid the horrors of war. You know, diplomacy 101.
- jnsaff2 4y agoChomsky has an ideological hatred of his version of Anglo-imperialism and throws everything else under the bus in the name of that. Has been doing that for decades. He is intellectually dishonest and morally bankrupt. This makes his thoughts on other topics suspect as well. Moreover how do you do diplomacy with Hitler2.0? Thinking that giving up yet another piece of (for you) unknown land to one of those will bring peace makes you sound really naive.
