Hi all,
The evidence and argument presented in my last Chomsky post shows
quite clearly whose blood is on whose hands. Rather than deal with
my argument and evidence, Platt chooses to quote poetry, and then to
reassert his already dismantled opinion.
Here's the Shakespeare he should have posted: "I had rather have a
fool to make me merry than experience to make me sad."
Such is the refuge of the Faux Philosopher.
Best,
Mark Steven Heyman (msh)

As my good friends MSH and Arlo try to vindicate Chomsky's support
for the brutal Communist regime in Vietnam, I'm reminded of this
famous passage from "Macbeth:"
"Will all great Neptune's ocean wash this blood
Clean from my hand? No, this hand will rather
The multitudinous seas incarnadine
Making the green one red."
In my own words:
All the words in the world will not erase
What Chomsky said,
Or the suffering of 2 million Vietnamese boat people.
