I haven't watched yet, but Chomsky isn't wrong much bruh. Not saying you did, but he got a lot of love on here pre-Obama. Give it an honest listen before you start throwing darts.
Man, this is exactly happened with the Iraq ramp up! Remember Bush said to a DC journalist "You said we are headed to war, I dont know why you say that. I'm the president I get to make that decision not you"
I don't get why diehard Obama supporters don't understand the reality of our current military strategy in the middle east. Supporters of Obama should know that the administration didn't clean out the swamp of neo conservative operatives. Hell, Obama reappointed some of these bastards.

Go look the names are all there and they are on right wing media 24-7. How many democrats are on radio and tv vs. Republicans?
Do you know the following pundits who ramped up the war to Iraq are doing the same for Iran right at this minute? With the same deceptive rumors and scare tactics to push for a war? These particular political operatives will wait years before they see results. And there are results,the public is starting to talk about more and more. You think this muslim islamic center controversy won't play into it? Because IT does.
Now if you were to go look up the following names: Michael Ledeen,Reuel Gerecht,Jeffrey Goldberg,John Bolton you would start to see a pattern. And the pattern is this: Iran is a integral piece of geopolitical positioning for the American Empire. This won't be settled until America has military bases in Iran. Let's say this again: American won't stop TIL it has influential MILITARY BASES in Iran. And America will wait it out more years than we can possibly imagine.
If you look on the Geopolitical maps for Middle East for the Neo Conservative world view, it's inevitable. Iran is a integral piece of the imperial puzzle. It's time to wake up. Obama isn't Neo,Superman,Captain America,Martin Luther King 2.0, He's a fine speaker who is trapped in the DC Bubble paralyzed to do anything because of the status quo.
That isn't negativity, that is reality,folks. Look at our whole media apparatus. Do you notice the Mosque protests are only about 500 people on the streets? How many were for Anti War protests before the run up for War on Iraq? Keep counting and i will get back to you in a day or so.

Our Country is addicted to warfare and Obama administration is no different in that respect. Our media selects the issues that support our empire. Anything seen as dissent to our empire is immediately attacked. Anyone who doesn't see that now, you will see it eventually.
