in his speech in 2011 on the occasion of israel's apartheid week, chomsky talks about the similarity between the palestinian struggle and the struggle of the people of south africa. "there are many analogies drawn constantly between israel and south africa varying merit, i don't use most of myself, but the one i mentioned i think is appropriate, and there's another one which i think is even more pertinent, although i 've never heard it mentioned, so i'll mention it now, 50 years ago the apartite regime in south africa, the white nationalist regime, was becoming well aware." that it was on the way to becoming a paraya state, just as israel is aware of that today, and the reactions are strikingly similar, if you go back to south african history and take a look at the way they reacted in the early 60s and the way israel is reacting now , it's remarkable similarities worth looking at large scale information campaigns to convince the world of how righteous we are and how we're right about everything and so on, there's the kind of circling the wagons, kind of pulling in to defend yourself

indeed president putin, many objective analysts, the great professor john mearsheimer, steven co, noam chomsky. what of all suggested that it was aggressive nato expansion in the aftermath of the collapse of the soviet union. and that is at the very center, is that the engine of all the conflict between russia and the west at the moment? well, that's your round up of the week's main stories. hey, on the weekly for more needs and much, much will do head over to our feet. don't come. i'll be back with you next hour. and i do hope that you stay with us the the the, him. so what addition and then it's getting close to that, hey, i'm going to shift the special issue, getting me, and then i see at the most as a command, let's say skim projects. yeah. can we get to it from us? well, and then probably in, you look at, as prosecutors have come to the house or south, proclaimed pasta. you know, the muffin and he's been training all for this to serve in the ukrainian army for years. so he did it with that yellow so that they such as lots of good on how to move us toto to j for right on the jacob daughter

chomsky are doing this kind of. think like, you know, if about it, there are if you think about it, there are billions milky billions of stars in the milky way, right? billions of stars that which way, right? billions of stars that there which way, right? billions of stars that there will which way, right? billions of stars that there will be which way, right? billions of stars that there will be habitable means there will be habitable planets then this planets somewhere. so then this is fermi's is a thing called fermi's paradox, basically paradox, which is basically that you know, given that there's high that is high likelihood that there is extraterrestrial life, come extraterrestrial life, how come there complete of there is a complete lack of conclusive evidence, and it means aliens just means that the aliens just aren't there's aren't reaching us? and there's aren't reaching us? and there's a what it is that a a theory that what it is that a civilisation reaches a point where it becomes advanced where it become

indeed president putin, many objective analysts, the great professor john mearsheimer, steven co, noam chomsky. what of all suggested that it was aggressive nato expansion in the aftermath of the collapse of the soviet union. and that is at the very center. is that the engine of all the conflict between russia and the west at the moment? you? yeah, thanks very much for taking us through. that's archie correspondent shape both. all right, next, the fascinating discussion on international espionage. what constitutes reasons on whether there can be such a thing as a former x c. i a officer, don't care bianco, he's today's guess. the world apart, the, [000:00:00;00] the, [000:00:00;00] the, [000:00:00;00] the, the welcome to all the parts and all the russian saying has a that there are no former intelligence officers. the work of spies requires levels of dexterity, loyalty and discretion, that they usually go far beyond field assignments. but the one is serving once the country reveal something that goes against its most fundamental cherished values. what that constituents, trees and keeping mom a

and residential areas in belgrade were shelled using cluster munitions from the border city buff. chomsky in the car could region one of the goals of ukraine and myself and targets was a sports complex called the number in belgrade. where's children's gymnastic classes were taking place? and now the target was an ice rink in the city center where there were parents and children. ukrainian service are also tech belgrade state university. in order to increase the number of casualties they use cluster munitions including to me size, but this prohibitive munition, as well as being part of missiles produced by check. yeah. and dusk, we see deliberate, indiscriminate combined detect against a civilian c. i want to, once again emphasize we're not looking at a strike on the military targets, which happens to kill civilians. this was a deliberate act of terrorism. we know that british and american advisors are directly involved in the organization of this terrorist attack reco. we insight into authorities of present the ukraine to commit crimes. as soon as the e u countries are also responsible fo

amy: and today is noam chomsky's 95th birthday. see our interviews with the world renowned scholar and activist on democracy now! about israel, palestine, the climate crisis and so much more, go to democracynow.org. and those are some of the headlines. this is democracy now!, democracynow.org, the war and peace report. i'm amy goodman. nermeen: and i'm nermeen shaikh. welcome to all of our listeners and viewers from around the country and around the world. u.n. secretary general antonio guterres has invoked article 99 of the u.n. charter for the first time in decades to press the u.n. security council to support a ceasefire in gaza as israel intensifies its assault which began two months ago today on october 7 after hamas attack israel. in a letter, guterres wrote -- "amid constant bombardment by the israel defense forces, and without shelter or the essentials to survive, i expect public order to completely break down soon due to the desperate conditions." he went on to write -- "we are facing a severe risk of collapse of the human

and i, i'd like to remind my students sometimes that noam chomsky wrote a book called the faithful triangle. and he argued in that book that the us as part of the conflict that we shouldn't call it the israel palestine conflict because the us is part and parcel to it. he was a supporter of israel and then supporting israel to the tune of billions of dollars in wesley. and also it's giving is real diplomatic color. and is the officials have said that uh, this, this continued bombardment, is, is what they see is a negotiated point to, to get how much back to the volleyball getting table. and they believe that's what caused them to the bargaining table the 1st time around. well, what do you say to them? i don't buy any of that. israel has made its intentions clear from the start. first of all, if we go into the design, this thought something that is deeply embedded within the is really literature is that uh, gaza must become, must come under, is really control. and there should be a type of population transfer. so this is not something new, that's what we're seeing. we're seeing ethnic cleansi

as noam chomsky is taught everyone and in the faithful triangle, it's the us and israel who are essentially weight waging a war against the palestinians. the us offers and dying support to israel, right. with very few exceptions. what we're seeing happened right now is that things are getting very uncomfortable for the bite and administration. they see the global polls that show increasing sort of anti american sentiment. more importantly, they see young democrats 18 to 35 moving away from bite and something which could ultimately cost him the 20202024 election. us is also concerned that if this escalates into something wider on a regional scale, if you're on where to get involved, for instance, that could have very serious ramifications for the us economy. so i think we just have to be careful interpreting all of this. it's not that the us which is steeped in its own a long history of war crimes and crimes against humanity. it's not that they've suddenly grown either a car developed a conscience or, or, you know, have these deep humanitarian concerns, but they could be harmed strategically

because all day and honest broker in this conflict of no, the us is not an honest broker of noam chomsky wrote his famous book, the famous triangle, and as his point was that the us and israel are, are especially on the same team and us against, against the palestinians and against peace and against the 2 state solution. so the us is not an honest broker. i think we have to do is take a bigger picture. look at the context is real, has long wanted to annex cause, or they want to drive the palestinians out of guys are we can't just forget about the united states, however, because they're the only super power. then the only ones that can exercise influence over is real. that's not going to happen unless there's internal pressure from the, from the united states population. and we haven't seen the kind of mass mobilization that it will take to bring about change at a, at a policy level in the united states. what was the most, we thank you very much for your time. that is mohammed the musty from the don't on . so truthful, graduate studies. thank you. the pentagon says as us warship has destr

language processing took off in the 1950s with noam chomsky, his work. my comments today will focus on what i term the dual contextualization of ai, namely taking history and data of context. so in a name. how did we get the term artificial intelligence? and why is this important? prior to world war two and the advent of digital computers, we had mathematicians speculating on future computing machines. in retrospect, this was the start of theoretical computer science. by the mid 1930s, alan, was this research areas intellectual leader. his 1950 paper computing machinery and intelligence introduced the imitation game as a close analog to thinking can a human correctly guess if a human or machine is responding to them? thinking or intelligence, however, is more than imitation. this was emphasized by philosopher john searle in 1980 and his critique of turing's 1950 paper in late 1940s, 1950s. journalists and scientist as use terms electronic brains. giant brains refer to early digital computers for. example scientist edmond berkeley framed. simon edmund ber

kissinger you mentioned to the former secretary of state james baker and the soviet union days, to noam chomsky, a big left-wing guy, and everyone from right to left to center knew that nato expansion was a redlined for russia. there's a huge historical record on that. okay? and then number two, there's anything, oh, it's about fight for democracy and freedom of ukraine. well, democracy, that elections. that's freedom of ing officer: w objection. mr. mcconnell: the senate has spent months considering supplemental action to meet serious connected threats to america's national security. as i've said from the outset, our work needs to address four urgent challenges. putin's war on a sovereign democracy in europe, the terror campaign against israel, and u.s. forces in the middle east, china's aggressive escalation against taiwan, and peaceful nations in the indo-pacific, and the biden administration's continuing failure to contend with the crisis at our southern border. senate republicans focus on securing the border didn't just begin this fall. we've watched for three years as the border descends

from henry kissinger to the former secretary of state james baker and the soviet union days to noam chomskyeveryone from right to left to center knew that nato expansion was a redline for russia. there's a huge historical record on that. number two. it's about a fight for democracy and freedom of ukraine. well, democracy is elections, freedom of speech, freedom of press. shouldn't c-span report on the suspension or question of the suspension of elections in ukraine? if it's about democracy, how will they suspend elections with the accuse of wartime and say that is democracy? they outlet opposition parties in the parliament. is democracy? they outlawed opposition parties in the parliament. why hasn't c-span reported on that? you have a foundation for the defense of democracy and they've done nothing but propaganda and say that it's democracy, but you don't investigate any of these facts. is there any freedom in ukraine? host: we made note of that announcement from volodymyr zelenskyy. the others to point to russia and say is there freedom in russia? is russia better on these issues then ukra
