On The Earth Productions and The Nation March 28, 2013  In the
twenty-first century, humanity will likely burn out in a nuclear
holocaust or fade away amid the gradually mounting effects of climate
change. That was Noam Chomsky’s prediction during a
question-and-answer session in 2009 that still resonates today.

By moving forward with a missile defense policy that upsets the
balance of nuclear deterrence with Russia, “we’re consciously
increasing the threat of nuclear war,” Chomsky said. As for the
effects of climate change, “nobody knows the exact details, but
everybody knows that the longer you wait, the worse it’s going to be.”

Noam Chomsky further eviscerates American foreign policy with his
piece “Why It’s Legal When the US Does It.”
