Education is Ignorance, by Noam Chomsky (Excerpted from Class Warfare) DAVID BARSAMIAN: One of the heroes of the current right-wing revival... is Adam Smith. You've done some pretty impressive research on Smith that has excavated... a lot of information that's not coming out. You've often quoted him describing the "vile maxim of the masters of mankind: all for ourselves and nothing for other people." NOAM CHOMSKY: I didn't do any research at all on Smith. He did give an argument for markets, but the argument was that under conditions of perfect liberty, markets will lead to perfect equality. He also made remarks which ought to be truisms about the way states work. This truism was, a century later, called class analysis, but you don't have to go to Marx to find it. The version of him that's given today is just ridiculous. But even more interesting in some ways was the index. I want to be clear about this. This is true of classical liberalism in general. It's the same when you read Jefferson. CHOMSKY: ... CHOMSKY: That's an eighteenth century idea. ...
King Abdullah II Official Website | Press Room | Interviews Interview with His Majesty King Abdullah II AFP: Your Majesty, various Western sources have said Jordan and Turkey might consider buffer zones in Syria. Is the Kingdom considering such a move? King Abdullah: Jordan has not considered imposing a buffer zone, but obviously we reserve the sovereign right to consider all options to safeguard the interests and security of Jordan. My first and foremost duty is to protect Jordan and its citizens. We have seen the Syrian army shoot civilians fleeing across our border, Syria has shelled Jordanian territory. So we are keeping our options open, if, for example, there are more escalations. That said, our priority continues to be to work for a solution based on a peaceful political transition within the international legal framework. AFP: Some Jordanian officials have been quoted as saying the Kingdom has arrested Syrian cells, particularly in the north. As for Jordan's plans, well, a good army plans for all contingencies, and the Jordanian Armed Forces are outstanding professionals.

OMG Facts - Your Mind. Blown. Non-possession: seeking intense simplicity and the good life OBAMA vs ROMNEY: Here's Who's Right About The Economy Popular movements urged to adopt platforms, run in polls AMMAN — His Majesty King Abdullah on Monday said that constructive protest movements have helped accelerate the pace of reform, urging these groups to institutionalise their work and participate in public life, a Royal Court statement said. Civilised and peaceful protests “have in general boosted reform and gave a push to our reform process by highlighting the challenges Jordanian men and women are facing. We encourage these movements to institutionalise their work through adopting clear political, economic and social platforms and participate in the upcoming parliamentary elections”, which, he said, is their constitutional right. In remarks to the Jordan News Agency, Petra, following a meeting with the president and members of the Constitutional Court, His Majesty warned the grass-roots groups of political activists against “intruders who seek to hijack the street to serve personal agendas”. The King emphasised that “no group or segment of society should be excluded from the elections”.
ILLUME - Breaking News, U.S., World, Culture, Politics, Entertainment, Videos, Photo Essays & Podcasts - Muslim Magazine Fact-Checking the Bill Nye-Marsha Blackburn Climate Change 'Debate' If you are not the sort of person who watches Meet the Press (because you are not an old person), you may have missed Sunday's "debate" between Tennessee Rep. Marsha Blackburn and Mr. William Nye, Science Guy. Allow me to summarize: There is no actual debate over climate change. Allow me to summarize at greater length: Blackburn was full of misinformation and Nye seemed sleepy. I pulled out the assertions presented by the participants in the discussion and evaluated them for truth. Here's an example of how this will work. Al Roker: Is it a natural cycle? Rating: False What Roker's doing here is what you might call skepticism-once-removed. It is humanity's fault, at least according to the same scientists that say it is happening, which is nearly every climate scientist with only a few isolated exceptions. That was an error before the discussion even began, compiled when host David Gregory showed a snippet of a climate change denier from the Cato Institute, which was completely wrong. Nye:
