so far, chomsky seems to have been pretty much on target, yes?
i do not agree with his assessment of the reasons for war--i do not think oil was a primary motivation for it--rather it was more geopolitical (unilateral american action as over against the united nations--iraq made sense as a target because of the first iraq war)...
the "discussion" of chomsky above is quite old and seems not to be terribly interesting in the main.
kinda iwsh i had been playing around here when it was posted, however: it could have been a fun debate. maybe it will be now.
