    Assuming everything he said is true. Did you do any fact checking, or is the fact that it's on youtube enough ? Of course, every leader nowadays is a marketing creation.

    There are times I really hate youtube. I think this is another reason why I do. Youtube is filled with junk and propaganda.

        I don't know if it is or not because I can't see it because I'm at work and they have it blocked. X| So I went to Wikipedia. His fans supposedly include Chomsky who's been called anarchist, etc. I'm going to need more information, but can't right now. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Pilger#Praise_and_criticism[^] Chomsky: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noam_Chomsky#Political_views[^] Just a brief quote from wikipedia on him "he describes himself as a libertarian socialist". What exactly is a libertarian socialist? Why not stay away from labels and just explain your believes in the simplest of terms.

          I couldn't care less who one of his fans are. When a guy says something and it makes sense, you cant say its false because of some minor irrelevance.

            Chomsky actually is quite an inteligent fella, IMO. I don't think he's your stero-typical conspiracy theorist. For example, the last time I checked he didn't believe in a conspiracy behind the twin towers attacks. He does however have some views on how the world works which is basically that big business runs the show etc.

            I think he basically stands for the devolution of central power, and favours "power to the people", type set up, where people manage their own communities. To get rid of money, and let people just work at things they enjoy - kind of like Star Trek (:~ if you like that sort of thing). I don't think you can take everything he says as gospel, but some of his views and opinions do get you thinking, and make you look at things objectively. For example, the war in Iraq/Afghanistan: it all depends on which side of the fence you sit - one mans terrorist is anothers freedom fighter and all that. He argues that all press coverage of things like that (especially in the US) are all from one perspective. Although I know he has pissed a lot of people off, and some hate him more than Vista! Meh, but it's all about opinions. :-D

                Again, I already did my fact checking. I'd appreciate it if you all went through the effort to do your own. I spend a lot of time and effort on my research regardless of the subject being researched. I can give you compilations but I will not backtrack through weeks and months worth of research to try to educate you. I'm not a book writer, and I'm not a document archive, m'kay? :^)

                you googled at random and believed everything you read when you searched for terms that would only bring up conspiracy sites. Brilliant. Did you watch the youtube videos I referred you to ?

                    I watched part of the 11th Hour. All it was about is how people are a like an infection on the earth and how we must all die off to save the environment, it also demonized America. It was a bunch of total bullshit.

                      ROTFL !!! Well, it sounds like it's about on par with the video you gave me to watch then. Read this[^]. Short version, there's about an acre of arable land on earth, per person. Imagine now if you could sustain your lifestyle, growing meat, fruit, veg, fabrics, etc, all for yourself, on an acre of land. As China and India try to achieve the same lifestyle you enjoy, that's what needs to be possible, for that lifestyle to exist for you, and for them.

                        The solution to the over population thing is not governmental controls, but cause and effect. When the people who don't own land (city people) start to pay large amounts of money for their resources (supply and demand), they won't be able to go on like they do any longer. The land owners however, will be able to sustain themselves.

                            Well first off it won't be sudden, as you can imagine, its a long process that takes many years. Second they can eat led and drop dead if they want it. America has enough land to support many many more people anyways, so your sick end of the world fantacies are for your own continent. You got the nerve to call me crazy for bringing light to the currupt banking system and governments, but you have this sick fantacey about people either submitting to total tyranny or dying in pure caos.

                              Actually, I'm in a much better position than you are. A lot of your land has been overused and relies on a supply of petro-chemical based fertilisers and mechanised tractors to produce food. you also have a lot more people than we do, and a lot more trouble with water. Just because I'm pointing out what's true, doesn't mean it's my fantasy

                              I'm unsure if this is a good place to point out that I'm education and can spell, if I should point out that just because something is true does not make it my fantasy, or to point out that either way, I've never advocated anyone living under tyranny. This is so retarded, I can't choose which option to use in response.

                                  What's amusing is that you post retarded videos to support yours, I post pages of facts and you dismiss them.

                                    LMAO!!! What a pathetic display of ignorance. Anyone can go online these days and make a website. Your insane doomsday theories of the sky turning red with black clouds, and people out protesting demanding the government to take over and feed them is a dismal little fantasy of a sick mind.

                                      OK, how come this doesn't apply to the crap you post ? The stats I found show that the US makes it's share of food, but is hardly the 'breadbasket' of the world. I knew this to be true before I searched, but still, what stats, as opposed to masturbatory fantasies, do you have to prove me wrong ?

                                      Amusing, I've never remotely suggested this. You moron.

                                        Because I post factual information relevant to the real world.
