Noam Chomsky Weighs In On Syria Strike

Sam Charles Hamad:
'Chomsky recently traveled to the region to learn more about the Syria crisis, and his comments there led some to believe he was open to military intervention if negotiations failed to produce peace. "I believe you should choose the negotiating track first, and should you fail, then moving to the second option" -- backing the rebels -- "becomes more acceptable," he said.
Of course, the 'negotiations' are a fantasy, a mere carrot dangled by the Russians, while Assad wields the blood-stained stick, but at least Chomsky sees that the status quo is unsustainable for the Syrian rebels and the Syrian people. The rebels need weapons. Weapons do not grow on trees.'
