Re: [Futurework] Are they going mad?

Harry, there are no neutral observers.  Nevertheless, some observers are more observant than others.  I'm a couple of chapters into the new Chomsky.  His arguments are well documented and seem to hold.  They do not differ greatly from those of Bachevich, though he does put them more strongly.  And it really was the Americans, not the Russians, who backed Saddam againts the Iranians.   Ed ----- Original Message ----- From: Harry Pollard To: 'Ed Weick' ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; 'Keith Hudson' Sent: Thursday, December 11, 2003 8:23 PM Subject: RE: [Futurework] Are they going mad?

Perhaps they always were a little mad and are now becoming more so.  Naom Chomsky has a new book out, "Hegemony or Survival".  I saw a short televised interview with him last night in which he argued that the US Administration has become so obsessed with power that it has become a real danger to the world.  George Soros says something similar in an article in the current Atlantic.  Madness does seem to have descended upon us.   Ed      --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
