his presence among the stars and girls is ahead of beijing's plans for its own space station. next we get an intellectual handle on the world's biggest quandaries as prominent academic and philosopher chomsky cast his eye across the world struggling finances through to the palestinian dreyfus often to. r.t. sitting down with for over an ounce scholar at linguist author and mit professor noam chomsky professor chomsky thank you very much for taking time speak with r.t. glad to be with you the first issue i want to speak with you about is the recent clashes that have taken place on wall street between americans who are turning out to demonstrate and police officers from what i read you recently sent a message to support the activists of this group called occupy wall street you've
10:32 am
called them courageous and honorable you can talk to me about your take on occupy wall street well as in the wall street is just a short hand for the financial institutions the banks are bigger and richer than before a corporate profits are retreating record levels for much of unemployment about the level of the great depression real unemployment these people are saying you know let's play a couple of minutes here from behind them so fiscal policies like taxation rules of corporate governance deregulation and so on it does set in motion a vicious cycle which is getting worse and worse in new york so walk down the streets you can see it very serious poverty on the other hand phenomenal wealth right side by side with a much like a third world country where you see if you go to so if there are enough with it meanwhile infrastructure is collapsing and schools are collapsing and all of that
10:33 am
increases the. keeps the cycle going and like rising well. it's about time for some protest what may be in there in the coming year for the twenty twelve election is that many including yourself have speculated and assume that campaign spending for the u.s. election two thousand and twelve will exceed one billion dollar each friended kennedy that is that massive it will clearly be much money where does that come from well you know basically a lot of it comes from financial institutions like you look at the two thousand and eight election and what's one obama what gave him the election was primarily financial institution contributions they preferred him to make and they expected to be paid back when they were. on the next will be even worse and certainly that's only a part of it in parliamentary systems including our own up to or maybe twenty years
10:34 am
ago. positions of influence in a functioning part of a parliamentary system the care of a committee. comes from principle at least from experience seniority. legislative contributions and so on that's gone now they're bought if you want to become chair of a committee. in the house of the senate you have to pay off the party have to pay for it where do you get the money to pay for it sam pocket you don't so it. provides even more influence to the your already overwhelming fluence of concentrated capital so it's harder and harder to distinguish between the elected officials and. economic concentration it never was easy to distinguish i should say this is not something novel but now it's sort of reaching the extreme level but what's left of america's democratic system if this is the process that has been
10:35 am
cemented in plates and what is really left if from every angle there's the is that not answering for me just take a look at public opinion they'll tell you. about two thirds of the public thinks the entire congress would be thrown out. doesn't mean you have it's going to happen no but it means that the system isn't working and the public knows it. the popularity of favor ability rating for congress and single digit president not much higher in the same month across all other institutions it's a very widespread sense that everything is going wrong that tells you the democratic system is just not functioning now in fact i don't want to suggest that this is totally new so you go back a century and you can still predict throughout all this period pretty well the outcome of elections by campaign funding but there are degrees and now it's gotten
10:36 am
extreme. the levels to which the u.s. has deported from other top of the societies are pretty remarkable you released a book recently. called nine eleven was there an alternative focusing on the u.s. assassination of osama bin laden and that continuity you say between george w. bush and barack obama. killing us on that laudanum interesting case it was done. in such a way as to infuriate the pakistanis which is extremely dangerous that's the most dangerous country in the world and go into it but you have a professional army committed to the sovereignty of pakistan pakistanis were already overwhelmingly at american this shoots through the stratosphere the army is bitterly angry not only at the invasion of
10:37 am
the country and the murder of someone on their soil but also that they're being pressured forced to take part in an american war in afghanistan some of the conservative military have a list soon wrote about the bin laden assess nation i quoted some of them pointed out quite accurately that there's a shift between bush's policies and obama's and this bush bush's policy was to kidnap people. whatever you thought about them. take them to guantanamo or bob graham or some other torture chamber and they'll try to extract some information out of them we know what that was like to describe it obama's policy is just to kill. killing them all over the world now is targeted assassination campaigns you know and kidnapping and torture and you're still in. the bin laden assassination was a case in point it's hard to remember but there used to be
10:38 am
a system of justice in the west which said that a person is a suspect until he's proven guilty until then he's a suspect he's innocent until proven guilty well that's one night you just kill him if you think they're guilty so he was apprehended. no resistance he was alone with his wife the defense doesn't. highly trained commandos could certainly have apprehended him and they didn't they were under orders to murder him and then toss his body into the ocean acts that are almost designed such a way as to increase her and. hatred throughout the muslim world in fact and when anybody has got their eyes open you talk about the obama administration and how the u.s. actions right now could be infuriating the muslim world the arab world the obama administration has supported the tunisians has supported the egyptians has
10:39 am
supported the libyans and the so-called arab spring the palestinians have officially submitted an application for u.n. membership and statehood the u.s. says that they will cast if you go against it they do because they believe that the record low shisha should take place between house and israel before there's an independent palestine first of all i have to make a call of kerry from the united states and its western allies did not support the egyptian and to newseum revolutions they opposed them they said they backed the internet as it was mostly france steer kone fix going in egypt was the united states and britain they supported the dictators until the last minute and when. the army turned against them and it was no longer possible to support them then they said ok we want democracy is wonderful and then they moved to try to ensure that the regimes would stay pretty much as they were in sight
10:40 am
a very old pattern but putting that aside it's true that the united states announced that it would cast of the progress thirty five years the united states and israel have been rejecting a political settlement that is supported by virtually the entire world the arab league the organization of islamic states which includes iran and hamas supports it almost no relevant party disagrees with except that the united states and israel let it happen haven't the fact that egypt right now and turkey have really suffered their relations it's really see that's an effect of the arab spring what that what's happening there are changes in the world what's happening is israel's getting harm or isolated meaning the u.s. is getting former i saw for example a couple months ago there was a meeting of the the oligarchy people pretty much on the economy they warned the
10:41 am
government that they better accept something like this resolution because that is it otherwise israel will be as they put it south african iced even more isolated boycotts refusal of ships and so on and our economy will collapse now it's interesting that israel is reacting too much to it so. if you look back at the history by about one hundred sixty we have the records south african foreign minister called in the american ambassador described this to him and said we don't really care as long as you back us because you're the one who matters and that's our work right through the one thousand nine hundred eighty s. u.n. border u.n. embargo corporations were pulling out. sanctions all over bully cuts they were doing for. the reagan administration was backing them. as long as the u.s. was supporting them and nothing happened then the u.s.
10:42 am
withdrew support almost instantly apartheid collapsed they're saying it's in israel's best interest and the us still allowed this palestinian un membership saying look i thought for thirty five years that cincinnati chamber is now that it's been for almost forty years there's a choice between security and expansion very clear choice israel is like other states it's preferred for since your early seventy's it's had a choice between security and expansion can have peace but not with expansion into the territories which incidentally is recognized to be criminal but everyone including israel they can get away with it as long as the most powerful state in the world backs them and as long as europe goes along and europe is remarkably talented lead them out like this but they don't like to step on the opponent also the masters so they go along so you know it's the quartet has backed the united
10:43 am
states they picked tony blair you know i don't have to comment on him but i might as well pick george bush to. bring the message you do what the united states tells you to stop this nonsense about statehood and go back to negotiations with that's where we now stand and it's up to the people then just industrial countries to compel their governments to go along with the world professor chomsky thank you very much for your time. wealthy british soil.
