Friends, I'm giving a small excrept from Noam Chomsky's recent interview. Hope, this will be helpful for our recent debate.

CNN: Do you believe that America is an empire? We like to think of ourselves as a free republic, is there a myth about ourselves that rubs against the empire notion?

Chomsky: Personally, I don't particularly use the word empire. It doesn't really matter. It has all kinds of connotations like having administrators running the country, and so on. There are all sorts of forms of imperial domination. The U.S. from its origins has had imperial ambitions and has implemented them. Why are you and I sitting here? There were people here after all. Well, when the English colonists came they wiped them out, or drove them out, and then expanded over the continent over millions of people. Sometimes we made treaties with them, but we violated the treaties and kicked them out anyway. 

That's the way the continent was conquered, half of Mexico was conquered, Cuba was "liberated" from Spain, in fact the U.S. intervened in 1898 to prevent Cuba from liberating itself from Spain to insure that it would be a colony in effect as it was until 1959. Since then, the U.S. has been carrying out a large-scale war of terrorism and economic strangulation. Cuba liberated itself - that's not allowed. 

Hawaii was stolen from its population by violence and guile, the U.S. invaded the Philippines because President McKinley told us he got a message from God saying we have do this, and that makes it OK. A couple of hundred-thousand people were slaughtered, and to this day the country remains basically subjugated. 

Other mechanisms are used so in the backyard, as its called, in Central America and the Caribbean you just have to follow orders or else, or you get repression, invasion, strangulation, destruction, including by the people now in Washington, who are some of the worst gangsters. 

It's kind of interesting. The heads of the war on terror are the same people in the administration that declared a "war on terror" back in 1981. On the diplomatic side at the UN who have John Negroponte who was at that time the U.S. ambassador to Honduras who was overseeing torture and violence in Honduras, but more importantly this is where the bases were for the U.S.-run mercenary forces that were attacking Nicaragua. And that's what the U.S. was condemned for by the World Court, to stop and to pay reparations. But of course the U.S. disregarded it. Now without any flicker of an eyelash, he is running the diplomatic side of the war on terror. 

[b]The military side of the war against terror, you have Donald Rumsfeld, who was Reagan's emissary to the Middle East who was sent to restore relations with our friend Saddam Hussein knowing perfectly well he was a complete monster and he was using chemical weapons. Iraq was taken off the list of terrorist states in 1982 so the U.S. could then provide him with arms, aid, establish relations and so, and since there was an empty stop on the list of terrorist states they introduced Cuba, as a terrorist state at the time. [/b]

It goes right down the list. Elliot Abrams who was responsible for Latin America, was a major sponsor of state terrorism and atrocities, and, in fact, was convicted of misdemeanors for lying to Congress, but got a presidential pardon. He's now back in charge of Middle East Affairs on the National Security Council. 

You don't know whether to laugh or cry. 

And educated opinion is so disciplined so astonishingly disciplined that all of this passes without comment, that that's wrong. You can go on and on. Look at Colin Powell, he's the "moderate." What's his record as a moderate? I mean he was national security advisor in the last couple of years of the Reagan administration when the administration was successfully evading a congressional ban against supporting South Africa, they were finding ways around it because they didn't want to accept it. They declared Nelson Mandela's African National Congress to be one of the more notorious terrorist organizations in the world - that's on Colin Powell's watch. 

They were also supporting massive South African atrocities in Angola and Mozambique which were killing hundreds of thousands of people - that's "moderation."

Paul Wolfowitz at the time was ambassador to Indonesia praising the monstrous Suharto, before that he was in charge of high up in the State Department office of Asian affairs where he was overseeing support for Marcos, a vicious, brutal, corrupt dictator who the U.S. supported almost up to the very last minute until he was overthrown by the army. 

Now there's a kind of revisionist history being constructed that the U.S. was really working behind the scenes to achieve these results but try to find some record of it and it's exactly the opposite. And it's completely consistent. It doesn't matter. One of the beautiful things about this doctrine of change of course which is evoked every two or three years, is you can wipe out the past. 

There is nothing exceptional about this. This is the way power systems behave. They like to think of themselves as mythologies.
