A Film by John Junkerman
Noam Chomsky's voice may be controversial, but his incisive arguments, based
on decades of research and analysis, deserve to be heard and considered. POWER
AND TERROR presents the latest in Chomsky's thinking, through interviews and
public talks given in the spring of 2002.
Chomsky places the terrorist attacks of 9/11 in the context of American foreign
intervention throughout the postwar decades - in Vietnam, Central America, the
Middle East, and elsewhere. Beginning with the fundamental principle that the
exercise of violence against civilian populations is terror, Chomsky-in stark
and uncompromising terms-challenges the United States to apply to its own actions
the moral standards it demands of others.
