- democracynow.org - After world-renowned scholar Noam Chomsky gave a major address on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in the hall of the United Nations General Assembly last week, Amy Goodman interviewed the world-renowned linguist and dissident before an audience of 800 people. Chomsky spoke at an event sponsored by the United Nations Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People. “One important action that the United States could take is to live up to its own laws. Of course it would be nice if it lived up to international law, but maybe that's too much to ask,” Chomsky said.

Seeing Amy Goodman sitting on the best seat of the UN fills my heart with warmth.
Israel's horrendous behavior has made that possible. They opened up the door.
Just discovered this guy... he is AMAZING!
+Tobberz His views on governments are extremely cynical but once you read and watch more of him and get to know his reasoning, it does make a lot of sense.
Why would institutions ever be anything except extremely cynical and selfish? They are not people with conscience or even consciousness. They are mechanical systems with the goal of survival at all costs; usually through oppression of individuals.
Fight on and power to the people!
spread the word dude
He is indeed a treasure!

God Bless Professor Chomsky for speaking the truth 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you. I really enjoyed listening to Noam Chomsky's talk.
I did too. However, many of those who didn't are brainwashed. I admire the guy.
Watching Prof. Chomsky speak at the UN and Amy as moderator was so cool. She is classy! I think they're the best activists ever.
Fast forward to today. The most relevant talk I have heard on the subject. The young have evolved for the very necessary truth about the Israelis. This was over 9 years ago. Chomsky is a treasure.
God blessed an angel on earth, Noam Chomsky. God bless this beautiful soul.
HAMAS Covenant (Aug 18, ’88). ISRAE DESTRUCTION through Jihad "Israel will exist “UNTIL JIHAD OBLITERATES IT” Article 13: “ No solution for Palestinian question except Jihad." [P. 7] Article 11: “Palestine - an Islamic land for future Moslem generations until Judgement Day.

This man is a beacon.
Nothing will change until all he has said is properly heeded.
Almost 70 years later and it's just worse for Palestinians.
A beacon of hope for humanity

Mr Chomsky, is, the Stephen Hawking, of political science. Many thank's for this post.
pfaffman100 : is thank's short for thank is?
That is why he is barred from Israel
LOL More like Chomsky is the Stephen Hawking of disco dancing! 😀
What great insight. God bless you Sir a man trying to save the world from catastrophic. ❤
So much clarity and fact here, Thank you Noam, you are a true inspiration for our world and societies.
Thank you Noam Chomsky
Amy Goodman is an American treasure ❣
Fantastic.....what a brilliant mind !....completely unbiased and loved his tongue in cheek comments!
9 years has passed and it’s still relevant..😢😢😢
Chomsky should be immortal and made world leader
Lol Chomsky's worst nightmare
@@dmike3507 lolol
No anarchist would want to do that lol
Chomsky has had his entire life to seek any type of actual Policy Making Position.
Yet instead he chose to sit on the sidelines and criticize everyone else who actually are in such Positions! SMH
lol
Very useful listening to this talk in Oct 2023, 9 years after this video. The current human right violations being committed by the Israeli govt and being backed by the United States is a continuation of what they’ve done in the past. In this moment it is very scary because 6500 Palestinians have died, and 2 million people are under siege without food, water, or electricity.
You seem to have no sympathy for Jewish victims.
@@Flashyfinancier no one have sympathy for coloniser.... Hell chosen people...
He spoke about the U.S. laws on stoping funding YEARS ago before the news if today.
Being asked why people give to beggars but not to philosophers, he said, "Because they think they may one day be lame or blind, but never expect that they will turn to philosophy."
Wow, 2023 and nothing has been done. It’s even worse 😢
“One important action that the United States could take is to live up to its own laws. Of course it would be nice if it lived up to international law, but maybe that's too much to ask,” Chomsky said.
In a country set up for and managed by an elite, law is disposable. As are the human beings bludgeoned by the lack of morality that mode of operation espouses.
Man the best thing to do is hold Israel and those Seated in power should be brought up on war crimes and id America does not abide Sanctions should be put on America.
"The Best Democracy Money Could Buy"
Danke N. Chomsky ,God bless you.
I liked his distinctions between tactics v principles, proposal v advocacy.
Thank God for Noam Chomsky, AlJazeera, & Democracy Now
I am in total agreement with you
I highly admire this gentleman. One of the few that could really be calles an intelectual. Deep, fair, objective, impartial but also brave! Like a true philosopher! Not what PhDa are today! A bunch of cowards with technical domain on subjects but not a single deep insight, nor bravery! Honestly 90% of PhDs don't deserve their tittle. They lack the depth Philosophers must havd!
The US cannot pretend to exceptionalism before it abides by international law and upholds human rights. In the current state, it is strictly mediocre or not even that good.
I am seriously cry listening this man. But ...
I have lots of respect for this man for his bravery and fighting to stand for human rights and the hypocrisy of the White House when it comes to Israel. Professor Chomsky singlehandedly changed my mind and belief that not all Jews are bad or evil as I once believed. He and Prof. Norman G. Finkelstein are even more outspoken than the staunchest Muslims on the Israeli Palestinian conflict which takes a lot of courage in the face of criticism of being called an Antisemitic.
Bring him back please 🙏🏼
This is excellent
Now if only Chomsky could talk to congress
+Dylan B Chomsky is a Communist and approves of Castro's regime. It's good to know that such a hypocrite makes a living in the U.S.A.
Al Pls. USA is run by hypocrites.
Al Pls. Anyone who’s paid attention to Noam Chomsky for any length of time knows he is not a communist. He is a libertarian socialist, a sympathizer of anarcho-syndicalism.
Talk to congress … yes that helps, reason and fact. That will change them. Wake up, Congress is the problem
Chomsky will be allowed to speak in Congress full of blind supporters of Zionist Israel that continue to cause massive murder and other brutal crimes with American suppled weapons.
RIP sir. You were one of my favorite scholars!
He's still alive!
what do you mean, he is alive. he's 95. an amazing man
WOW, Amy, this is a great conference.
As if you were talking about present events
I love this clip, it's makes me feel good to hear the truth, not too often you do that
Very engaging and thoughtful commentary on the Palestinian and Israeli war. I agree with everything Chomsky's opinion about the conflict. Most sane people recognize that the Palestinians have rights and have the right to occupy Palestine.The Israelis believe not only in destroying Palestinians but I think their hatred stems to the hatred of anyone who disagrees with them. Calling for the resignation of the UN secretary general by the Israelis is a clear indication of their arrogance and intolerance to anyone who opposes their tyranny!I am in opposition to the United States government who breaks agreements Just like the Israelis do. It's a non- humanitarian view of a terrorist!They claim being victims when they have been victimizing people. Most of the population in Gaza are children because the Israelis have killed off the majority of adults. Baby killers is the worst kind of murderer there is!
I think Prof. Chomsky understands the projected sound of violence.
Thanks.
Chomsky me encanta con su vision tan esclarecedora de la realidad 🌐👍🐱🎇🎇🎇
Great
God blesses you ✝️🙏❤️❤️❤️
It would be nice if the United Nations understood it's own restraints.
8 years and no change in status but only in number of people death or suffering
It's not an issue of "why should the US.." do this or that, but "why does it". Without addressing the core issue, nothing can change, as it is systemic. Asking for scruples from an unscrupulous structure is superfluous.
All those people in the United Nations General Assembly and nothing gets done.
But is Backlash itself sufficient grounds for not pursuing a strategy?
US is the laws. US defines their ways.
niefali
US is more of nanny state and US wants the world to be nanny world.
I just call it UN. If you guys see the letters UN, it probably is referring to "United Nations."
It will be nice if the USA finally solves the problem by recognizing the State of Palestine with its fundamental rights.
Mr. Chomsky,The man with great mind,& great heart. I'm glad that many americans have finally awaken & critical about why their tax money is used to support oppresion, used in human right violation.
What an annoying person sitting to the right of Amy Goodman... He just had to be paged so that he could fuss around several times and yak something to somebody about something trivial while Chomsky was talking a lot of sense. When he wasn't being distracting, this fool couldn't even hide his boredom at what Chomsky was saying. You could be forgiven for thinking he was a paid distraction, but of course anybody who can follow Chomsky's train of thought is going to have enough intellectual stamina to be able to shrug off such distraction for what it is. What on earth was his function there, one has to ask?
Roger Waters once said, in order to find the truth you need to read, and read, and read to find all the information available to you and it will lead there.
What he said is plain common sense.
That guy looks familiar, cant figure out where I saw him

Agreed 💯👍🌈⭐🌞🦅👈
15:48 and so it continues 😢
Such a great speech with a human who seem more into his stuff than the politicians he talks to.
Where is Noam Chomsky now? Amy
Old and weak, but I have seen some recent clips from him
Oppa Chomsky style...
Guy on the right was so disrespectful.
🙏🏼If you see how much every day’s life is so meaningful that why you must stop killing since we are not the enemy's. We should make Friends. Let's think about how much we must earn our lives for our family. How much better that we don't have to beware of the bullets or missiles.
Dear Noam Chomsky, those paranoid, patriotic politicians and are just power gambler.
4:12-7:59
It's sad that you are referred to as a dissident for standing up for human rights..! It says a lot about the American people
Now meaning 2024 to speak about Israel and Palestine?
We do and how about Israel ? I so disgusted at both sides.
Well is the truth that set us free and love that execute its opponents. So have in mind judgement day is today for this perpetrator. And i was vanished for 5 years in the grounds of trying to b an illegal immigrant . Not overlooked my canadian citizenship. Treated loke a criminal and back and forwarded guarded like a terrorist when the offender was the ground i was banned for 5 years. . Thank u canada God bless you and i will always pray for ye to b better than our neighbors. And this truth had set me free. May the holy spirit bring justice for my people in need . Repent USA is judgement day. Indeed😮

The quality of the American people is mediocre for having elected Trump and Biden as Presidents of America.
That’s because you actually think that voting has hah or currently has, anything to do with who becomes president or leader of any country.
But the U.N. who runs the world, sure does!!
Wake up!’
What a gangster
The world would be a lot better place without the US!
Tabassum Khan I would not be too sure about that. I think it is the human mind that is the source of all this. People in politics are motivated by their own gain and this blinds them and makes them act in a cruel way. No country is immune to that. So every country that would become a super power Will act as usa does
Tabassum Khan,
But without the U.S, then what else would Chomsky have to complain about, and where else could he make money doing so???
Funny thinking! You actually think your leaders don’t if your country aren’t corrupt?
Answer this.. do they ever suffer consequences of war. recession. Or depression ?
Bet not.
Bet they profit! !!
Noam's "tactics": the means must be justified by the ends = moral bankruptcy.
I hope the hell all of you narrow minded baby Boomers go the way of the dodo so gen x can fix all the shit you created your all a dieing breed Spawned by the so called Greatest generation wiicth only won world war2 because Hitler went and messed with Russia 🇷🇺 so he had to fight a two Front war. if not for that the war would have ben Totally Different and all of these aging dinosaurs would be talking German not that i would wount that but everybody's Entitled to their Opinion

Mr Noam Chomsky is know for being a "Cognitive" Scientist...Very funny!!!
Mr Roger Diogo is known for being nothing because he's a random nobody with a keyboard... Very funny!!
See how unproductive this conversation is? Does this help you understand how conversations ought to go? Maybe something with substance or critical thinking? An actual point to make? Reality? A desire to understand the truth? To know what is actually going on in the world? Or is your motivation simply reducing your worldview to oversimplified, inaccurate, and reactionary nonsense? I suppose I understand that motivation, it's much easier to simply bury your head in the sand and lash out at those who you disagree with
That's the problem. People like you getting offended and responding with a long ass ' trying be smart' answer. Lighten up. You think Chomsky himself would be offended by that remark? Highly doubtful. Let me release the burden on you to respond with long, smart-ass remarks. Let it go..let it go and enjoy the sunset
@@hewaleinui Noam is a linguist, not a cognitive scientist, if that guy is a cognitive scientist, I might be Einstein 😁
@@rogerdiogo6893 lol...now thats a good point!
it would be nice if Noam Chomsky didnt make excuses for the soviet union and hugo chavez and deny the Cambodian genocide
It would be nice if this Linguistics Professor had really gone to Law School, so that he actually knew WTF he was talking about when it comes to the Law!
But that's asking too much from Chomsky...SMH
You are sick!
@@drbalababaahmed1183 ,
Chomsky is the sickness!

In order to be humane you need to be educated by going to law school?
You are definitely part of the problem . Which consist of lack of intelligence and morals
Whatever you clown😂
Love u to Amy. You very cool.
This bloke is not young , but I say
, he speaks in laymens turns on purpose and fk makes sense .i understand this man fully
