The following is the adapted text of an interview that first appeared in Modern Success magazine.
So many things have been written about, and discussed by, Professor Chomsky, it was a challenge to think of anything new to ask him: like the grandparent you can’t think of what to get for Christmas because they already have everything.........read more
Israel threatens Russia over S-300
The crisis over Syria could turn into a larger war.
All parties pour more gasoline on the fire and the situation is very serious.
Started up with the idiotic decision of yesterday evening, the EU foreign ministers lifting the arms embargo against Syria.
The warmongering British Foreign Minister William Hague has helped raise what he wanted and said the British will now provide the terrorists with weapons.

From France it sounds similar.

The news has caused great resentment in Moscow.
The Russian Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, said the U.S. and the EU countries apply a double standard and would be hypocrites.
On
one hand, they excite on terrorism in their own countries, as in Boston
and now in London, but at the same time they provide weapons the
terrorists in Syria.
It would also be a violation of international law.
'Essentially, this is an illegitimate decision.
The supply of arms to non-state groups contradicts all norms of international law,' Lavrov said.
Russian
Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said the decision by the EU
forcing Russia to deliver S-300 missile defense system as soon as
possible to Syria.
What the Israeli War Minister Moshe Yaalon said, the modern air defense system should actually arrive in Syria, then Israel knows 'what to do' and will destroy it.
Israel openly threatens Russia and the situation could explode.
To aggravate the situation even more, Obama placed an order to the Pentagon to draw plans for a no-fly zone over Syria, which is enforced by fighter aircraft of the United States, France and England.
In
addition to a no-fly zone, the White House wants to arm terrorists and
formally acknowledge the Council of the Syrian opposition.
That
is, if that is above would be realized everyone has their weapons has
at the ready and make threats make true, then might controlled by
Russian S-300 missiles shoot down NATO planes and Israel kill Russian
military personnel, leading to a direct confrontation between Russia and
Israel, and the NATO countries.
Hezbollah and The Iran could also assist their ally Syria.
Turkey should as a NATO member and supporter of the terrorists also join.
The conditions for a major conflict that might turn into a world war are given hereby.
Russia believes that the delivery of the S-300 would seem more becalming.
Ryabkov
said: 'I can only say that we will continue as we believe, such a step
would keep back a few hotheads looking for a scenario in which this
conflict gets an international character with the involvement of
external forces'.
As a reminder, Russia has pulled together a large fleet of warships off the Syrian coast.
This fleet probably service to deter any attempts to attack Syria.
Israel's
Moshe Yaalien said Tuesday to the Russian plan to give the modern air
defense missiles in Syria, would be a 'threat' and he made clear
Israel is prepared to prevent the supply by force.
'The
deliveries have not happened yet - I can confirm that - and I hope it
will not happen but if they arrive by any pitch in Syria, we know what to do,' said Yaalien.
Thus,
the Israeli minister of war even suggests that transport could be
sabotaged and go when it arrives anyway, then the missiles are just
destroyed by Israel in Syria.
Meanwhile, one of the biggest warmongers in Washington, Senator John McCain met with his terrorist friends in Syria.
He entered the country via Turkey and spoke with commanders of the FSA terrorists.
This
crossing of the border and meeting on Syrian soil by an American
politician, is a flagrant violation of all diplomatic norms and a
violation of Syria's sovereignty.
McCain previously visited U.S. troops serving on the border of the NATO missile batteries in the Turkish city of Gaziantep.
Officially about the Patriot missiles, which are deployed by the German Federal Armed Forces to protect Turkey.
In fact, they extend far into Syria and are already a tool to enforce the no-fly zone.
The
situation is fueled by the West because of the plan to topple Assad did
not develop as intended and the terrorist gangs hired by the West to be
repulsed by the Syrian army.
They thought it is so easy and fast-run like the overthrow and killing of Muammar Ghaddafi in Libya.
Russia and
China feel totally betrayed of Washington and the Europeans because the
Western Arrogance’s plea to establish the no-fly zone over Libya,
solely to protect the civilian population.
In fact, it was a lie and it was about regime change.
Therefore, the two members of the UN Security Council oppose Western intervention in Syria at this time.

Dear friends,
Fin whales are magical giants of the sea. But in days, over 180 of these endangered species are set to be slaughtered by one tycoon and his buddies whose summer hobby is to harpoon them, chop them up and ship their meat through the Netherlands to Japan for dog food!
There is one way to stop the hunt before it starts -- you can’t dock a boat full of illegal whale carcasses just anywhere. German and Finnish authorities have shunned the shameful trade. Now, the Dutch are the linchpin. They care deeply about their reputation as environmental leaders, and are hoping this bloody trade won’t get any global attention. But if we expose it now and demand the Dutch authorities refuse the transfer of whale meat in their port, we can stop the whale massacre!
We have to act fast -- the whaling ships are due to start the hunt in days. Sign now and tell everyone to join -- let's build a one million strong campaign to Prime Minister Mark Rutte now warning him that we will create a media storm with giant whales on his doorstep unless he stops the transfer in Dutch docks:
http://www.avaaz.org/en/days_to_stop_the_whale_slaughter_fbdm/?bNxfadb&v=25235
These majestic creatures are the second largest animal on earth, they can grow to be as long as three buses and move through water like lightning. Their incredible combination of sleek, elegant power and speed earned them the nickname "greyhound of the sea".
Tragically, whalers like Kristjan Loftsson have slaughtered hundreds of thousands and over 70% of the global population was wiped out. But since the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species and the International Whaling Commission bans were instated, their population has significantly increased. We can help them back from the brink if we stop them from being butchered for dog food!
Getting the Dutch to refuse Loftsson's bloody cargo in Rotterdam is the best way to stop the hunt before it starts as it will set a precedent for other European ports. So far the Dutch have allowed him to get away with this mass murder. Let's expose them now and put an end to this slaughter. Sign the petition and tell everyone -- let’s stop the trade before the first harpoon is fired:
http://www.avaaz.org/en/days_to_stop_the_whale_slaughter_fbdm/?bNxfadb&v=25235
Avaaz members have achieved tremendous things for biodiversity, from opposing the ivory trade to winning a ban on pesticides that were killing record numbers of bees. In 2010, Avaaz members were central to keeping the International Moratorium on Commercial Whaling intact -- now let’s stop this horrific hunt and keep marching toward a more humane world.
With hope,
Pascal, Lisa, Oliver, Alice, Ricken, Allison, David, Alaphia and the whole Avaaz team

Tell Congress: Don't cut vital programs to increase Pentagon spending.
Dear USAction Member,
|
We
spend more on weapons and war than the combined military budgets of the
next 16 countries, including many U.S. allies and friends.1 But
House Republicans want to fund an increase in Pentagon spending with
more cuts to vital services – literally taking hot food from the mouths
of vulnerable seniors2 and robbing children of education and a path to a brighter future.3
This outrageous plan and the right-wing obsession with cutting our nation to the core must be stopped.
Tell Congress: Don't cut vital programs to increase Pentagon spending.
Slashing vital social safety net programs that serve millions of families makes absolutely no sense, which makes the GOP’s 2014 spending plan particularly cruel.
They would add to the devastating sequester cuts to domestic spending in order to increase a Pentagon budget that already eats up 57% of the money Congress votes on.4
Well it's time for Congress to hear what the American people think about the GOP’s tea-party priorities. Tell Congress: Don't cut vital social safety net programs to increase Pentagon spending.

Some
in Washington have completely lost touch with the everyday struggles of
life – finding and keeping a good job, paying rent and bills on time
and taking care of our friends and family who’ve fallen behind through
no fault of their own.
As families and communities struggle just to get by, we need jobs and prosperity for all, not austerity. We have collapsing bridges in Washington,5 we have cancer patients going without treatment6 and we have children being turned away from Head Start at a time when we should be investing in their future.7
It’s up to us to stop these cuts to our communities and speak out for prosperity for all. Join us as we call on Congress to do the right thing and defend our social safety net against these radical right-wing attacks. Click here to take action now.
