Im in high school, and my class has a phone interview with Noam Chomsky on Friday.

My teacher wants the class to come up with 3 questions each to ask him

The problem is, I cant think of anything to ask.

If you were going to ask Mr. Chomsky a question[s], what would it they be?

Im basically asking for questions to ask him because I cant think of any

Thanks!

Wow! That sounds awesome. I wish I could sit-in on that class!

Ask him, with the power relationship among constituents and their government, can voting really make a difference in next year's election?

Good Luck!

Happy Holidays!

Noam is a very smart man and you are lucky to have him call in.

1) What do you think of Israeli government's involvement in fostering peace in the Middle East and with the Palestinians?

2) What do you think are the principal reasons why the US invaded Iraq?

3) What do you think of the Bush Administration's recent effort (today) to bring Israeli leaders and the leading arab countries leadership to the White House for peace talks?

I'd ask the following questions, then promptly take a shower to wash off the stench of having to listen to an idiot like Chomsky.

a. As a noted anti-semite, neoliberal, do you believe that Israel does not have the right to exist?

b. If you have so much hate for capitalism and a democratic republic, why do you still live here?

Lucky you

Dr Chomsky is a bit of a philosopher, you may want to ask him if it is ever warranted for a particular nation to act militarily in it's own self interest outside the confines of its own boarders

David Horowitz cited him in his book "The 101 Most Dangerous Academics in America". How does he feel about being called a dangerous academic and why does he feel it?

Mr. Chomsky how did you ever make it out of the 1950's without being jailed for being a commie sympathizer?

Try reading his books.

I consider asking this question here cheating and laziness on your part.

ask about the use of language, and selective wording to manufacture consent.

"why do u deny the obvious fact that 9/11 was an inside job?"

"how much funding of MIT comes from the Military industrial Complex?"

"" are you not also trying to 'manufacture consent' among your own followers?"

"if you're such dissident why are u one of the US's best known intellectual exports world wide? - no false modesty "

BTW not a fan-
