Atzmon's critical review of a recent article by Noam Chomsky provides an outstanding illustration of the role of a left-wing "gatekeeper" who even went to the extent of fabricating an historical fact (I cannot excuse Chomsky on the grounds of sloppy reading of historical facts.)
In his latest article in The Nation, Noam Chomsky selectively cherry picks the facts that fit his preferred narrative, while ignoring and disguising relevant details that contradict his thesis. One would expect an academic of Chomsky’s stature to perform at a much higher standard of intellectual integrity.
Reviewing Chomsky’s latest criticism of the BDS [Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions] reveals that the MIT linguist borders on deception. It is especially fascinating to examine Chomsky’s tactics in light of the current violent events in Israel/Palestine.
