Review
Noam Chomsky's moving essays are a strong blend of reason and passion. He tells us what we don't want to hear, what we don't want to remember, but what we must know and not forget if civilization is to survive.
Synopsis
This is Noam Chomsky's description of the evolution of American foreign policy and ideology between the early 1970s and Ronald Reagan's first term. He dissects assumptions about US commitment to human rights during the Carter administration, its relation to the Middle East, especialy Israel and the Palestinians, as well as the ways the public intelligensia dealt with information on these topics that was to the contrary of official policy.
