Sorry some wrong in previouse comment but you know what I meant.
One Point more: Mr Chomsky see how this regim treats his own people, What happens inside of Iran. Do you trust them? Don´t Close your Eyes against them.
What Mr Chomsky doen’t know is the basic definition of Islam. According to Islam-shiie all who aren´t muslin are enemies. against enemy Everything is allowed, to lie, to decive, rverything to coquer. Every shiie has a duty to fight to conquer by any method. This is because a shiie muslim is not trustable. According to principles they developed 14 years in secret, they lied but they continued the development. The regim in Iran is untrustable. But Pakista, Israel, India are controlable government. But in Iran you can´t trust them, they lie, the deceive the infidel (even you). Acc. to shiie you must becom musli otherwise killed. Don´t Dream beauty about the mulla in Iran see the reality what the do and what the habe done.
It sounds to me as though you are saying that Muslims are evil, and therefore preemptive action, perhaps even violence, against them is justified. I think that human nature is much the same everywhere and that we need to treat all people as we would wish to be treated ourslelves. Innocent until proven guilty. Chomsky made a good point in referencing the Magna Carta.
The problem is that human nature is the same everywhere, except in governments.
