> US is an indicted terrorist state: Chomsky
> HENNAI: The bombing of Afghanistan was a greater crime than the
> September 11 US terror attacks, noted American social critic and
> philosopher Noam Chomsky told an Indian audience on Sunday.
>
> Chomsky, who participated in a seminar on "September 11 and its
> aftermath: Where is the world heading?" in Chennai, said that the
> western approach to the Afghan conflict was both "shortsighted"
> and "catastrophic."
>
> "The US is an indicted terrorist state," Chomsky told a large
> audience at Chennai's Music Hall. He added that the US had
> committed several acts of aggression against other nations and
> frequently violated all canons of international law. He said that it
> had no moral right to be a critic of terrorism having committed the
> same crimes.
>
> "The US had trained groups of terrorists to overthrow governments
> found to be inconvenient to its interests and replace them with its
> own lackeys," said Chomsky.
>
> He added that the US did not bother to get the sanction of the UN
> Security Council for its war on Afghanistan. "Despite knowing that
> it was easily obtainable, it did not get the sanction only because it
> did not want to acknowledge such a need and thereby compromise
> on its own right to act unilaterally," said Chomsky.
>
> Chomsky is one of America's most prominent political dissidents.
> A professor of linguistics at the Massachusetts Institute of
> Technology, he has written 30 books dissecting such issues as
> US interventionism in the developing world and the political
> economy of human rights.
