peace, propaganda and the promised land
Sábado, 17 de Febrero de 2007
when so many of us receive so much of our understanding of what is going on in the world through that box in the corner of the room, it’s worth having a look at what the box is telling us…
noam chomsky and robert frisk, the big names amongst many others, offering a straight-talking tour of the occupied territories and how they are portrayed…
a 40 minute viewing which doesn’t let up… just re-watching it again now after a month of so debating whether to put it up and i find myself pulled in once again… compelling, forceful and yet without ramming it down your throat… the situation seems half sick joke, half farce and yet it’s still goes on… day by day… reported or not…
“When Israelis in the occupied territories now claim that they have to defend themselves, they are defending themselves in the sense that any military occupier has to defend itself against the population they are crushing… You can’t defend yourself when you’re militarily occupying someone else’s land. That’s not defense. Call it what you like, it’s not defense.”
noam chomsky.
it’s called aggression noam.
