Album Description
For more than a half-century, the United States and its leaders have been pursuing a grand imperial strategy with the aim of dominating and controlling international politics. Our elected leaders have been willing to follow the dream of dominance regardless of the cost. In War Crimes & Imperial Fantasies, Noam Chomsky talks to Alternative Radios David Barsamian in Chomskys MIT office about the history of the United States perusal of imperialism and the crimes against humanity committed along the way.
Is George W. Bush and international criminal and is his war in Iraq an egregious criminal act? In this thorough, in-depth two-disc interview, Noam Chomsky (commonly referred to as "the conscience of the American people") carefully places Bush into a historical perspective, explaining Bushs actions in relation to past U.S. presidents and how the war in Iraq is in blatant disregard of the findings of the Nuremberg Tribunal. In this exposing interview, Chomsky recounts Americas history of aggressive war, war crimes and murder while placing George Bushs Iraq invasion and occupancy into context. Just in time for Election Day, War Crimes & Imperial Fantasies is an exercise in American honesty and objective, factual criticism.

As with all of chomskys work (books, cds, videos) everything you hear from him makes you so mad, but its nothing that should surprise you. Almost all of this stuff can be backed up with credible sources. Simply do a bit of research. The only bummer about this is now theres not much we can do about W and Co., but hope that we all can get more involved and bring about change.

War Crimes & Imperial Fantasies is a must listen for all americans who are concerned about the direction of our foreign policy. For me it was shocking to discover that much of what I had learned in school and from our media was a blatant lie. I would also recommend that you follow this with Chomskys "Survival or Hegemony".
With his inimitable penetrating analysis and dry wit, Chomsky leads us through the murky blood-soaked reality of Americas New World Order-whether its NAFTA, GATT, MAI and the WTO, or our relations with Palestine, Israel, Haiti and China. The second l
Amazon.comIn perhaps the most potent of his speeches released on CD (this one recorded in 1995 at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology), linguist and political critic Noam Chomsky frankly addresses the evident--but largely undiscussed--lines of 
Politics. Social Criticism. "Theres no doubt that one of the major issues of twentieth century history, surely in the US, is corporate propaganda. . . Its goal from the beginning, perfectly openly and consciously, was to control the public mind, a
