Chomsky is a Linguist. Not an Engineer nor a Physicist. He used to be relevant but his 9/11 opinion makes me think somebody got to him. Hey Noam, if you think your pension is going to be around when you retire or how about ten years of IRS audits. You better keep your mouth shut.

BS

Chomsky is Emeritus, meaning he is kind of retired from a traditional professorial role.

I didn't watch this video but from what I heard him say in the past, he's claimed that the US probably allowed the attacks to happen.

Well that's what he says- he says he is not an engineer and so cannot comment on building seven but that very few engineers are on the truthers side of things and the ones who are don't present evidence in a scientific manner.

A well reasoned response. Nice clip danmand
 
Really there is no excuse for not allowing open investigation, ergo something is being hidden.
How many people have died for 9/11, why does info need to be hidden about what happened? That is the question and the point.

There was an open investigation- you just don't accept it.
 
If a guy with a anti-US default viewpoint criticizes the irrationality of truthers...

Congratulations, you get an A for having watched the video.
