    Description of 9-11

    WINNER OF THE 2002 FIRECRACKER BOOK AWARD

    Noam Chomsky's international anti-war bestseller, 9-11 has become the subject of debate in mainstream media. Following controversial feature articles in the New York Times and Washington Post earlier this month, arch-conservative William Bennett proposed on Paula Zahn's CNN morning show that he and Chomsky debate live. The "debate" took place on Thursday, May 30, 2002. Meanwhile, the Guardian (U.K.)published an article on American coverage generally and CNN's commentary specifically, comparing it to Soviet-style "conformity which muzzles public discourse."

    The Famed Activist and Academic Speaks Out About The War That is Shaking The World; America's most prolific and esteemed political analyst offers his informed analysis of the global build up to the September 11th attacks, the long-term results of America's current military action, and what can actually be done to promote peace and justice. Based on a composite of interviews, conducted in the month following the attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center by famed journalists from around the world, Chomsky's impeccable knowledge of US foreign policy in the Middle East lifts the veil of propaganda surrounding the new war on terrorism and investigates the long-term implications of America's military attacks abroad. With chapters covering such issues as Not Since the War of 1812, Is the War on Terrorism Winnable?, The Ideological Campaign, Civilisations East and West, and much more, Chomsky speaks out against responding to violence with violence and calls attention to the true sources and potential resolutions of such conflict. With his claim that "an aroused public within the more free and democratic societies can direct policies towards a much more human and honourable course," Chomsky marks this book as the most informative and inspirational of its kind.
