Scathing Chomsky critique of U.S. policy
"I'm sure every one of you knows from your own lives and the lives of the people around you that the Bush administration is carrying out a major attack against the American population," Chomsky said.

"In his view, its agenda follows the outline set by Ronald Reagan in the early '80s: Drive the country into a huge budget deficit, use that fiscal crisis to slash social programs, and hide behind a propaganda campaign that instills fear across the country.

"They are trying to enrich a pretty small group of corrupt gangsters, who they are protecting all the time," Chomsky said. "And they are carrying out a war against the public to do it."

"In his writings, Chomsky has indicted the United States as a rogue nation, bullying and oppressing poor people from South America to Europe to further its interests and the interests of large corporations."
