In an interview with the Iranian-state run English language news 
network PressTV, activist and MIT linguistics professor Noam 
Chomsky compared former Secretary of State Colin Powell to Nazi 
war criminal Joachim von Ribbentrop.

�Yes, [starting a war of aggression] was a major factor in the 
hanging of Nazi war criminals,� Chomsky says in a clip of the 
interview, which was provided to The Daily Caller by the Middle 
East Media Research Institute.

�In fact, if you look closely, it seems more pertinent to the 
present. So von Ribbentrop, the Foreign Minister � one of the 
charges against him was that he supported a preemptive war 
against Norway. The Nazis knew that the British were thinking of 
invading from Norway, so they preempted it and established a 
quisling government there. That was one of the crimes against 
von Ribbentrop.�

�How about Colin Powell?� he then asks rhetorically. �He 
justified a preemptive war against no threat. So if von 
Ribbentrop was hanged�You know�Okay, fill it out.�

Later in the interview, Chomsky interprets an article by Slate�s 
Matthew Yglesias� as an argument for comparing the U.S. to Nazi 
Germany.

�There was one interesting response [to the targeted killing of 
Osama bin Laden] from a well-known, left-liberal, young 
political analyst, Matthew Yglesias, who said this was extremely 
na�ve, because the whole purpose of international law is to 
legitimize the use of force by the Western Powers � meaning the 
United States,� Chomsky said.

�Well, he is not wrong. It�s nice to have somebody say the 
words,� he continued. �But what he is saying is: �Look, forget 
all the rhetoric. This is pure farce. We are just like the 
Nazis. We do what we like.��

Are you obligated as an armed civilian, to defend unarmed 
liberals while you are both under fire by foreign agents of the 
outlaw Obama administration?

No.  Shoot the liberals immediately so they can't stab you in 
the back while you are defending yourself, then return a 
controlled rate of aimed fire.  ��
