Getting Chomsky

After his last visit to the Middle East, Chomsky was criticized by some people for statements he made. This article sets the record straight about what Chomsky said and what he didn't say. Of particular interest are his views on BDS (Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement) and on the one/two state solution debate.

Of course, this article is of no interest to those who try to build up their radical credentials by smearing Chomsly.  I'm posting here for the benefit of the others.

No Justice For Palestinian Girl

"An Israeli army officer who fired the entire magazine of his automatic rifle into a 13-year-old Palestinian girl and then said he would have done the same even if she had been three years old was acquitted on all charges by a military court yesterday," The Guardian reports.
