Chomsky interview with New Statesman

"I think Afghanistan, if we look at it, is one of the most grotesque acts of modern history."


Quite honestly, apart from syntactical clumsiness, that seems rather disproportionate, given how filthy the modern tide has been and all. We all say silly things from time to time I know, and I doubt Chomsky would have written that sentence. But I'm not entirely sure he'd retract it either.
