The Chomsky/Blankfort Polemic

http://www.sott.net/signs/editorials/signs_TheChomskyBlankfortPolemic.php

"Chomsky has been the doorway for so many people to become involved in politics. They read Chomsky, and they become excited about political work. And it is only later, if they are fortunate, that they discover that Chomsky not only opens the door, he closes it as well!"

--Jeffrey Blankfort, anti-Zionist Jewish-American progressive journalist-writer-activist
