Chris Hedges on Pornography, discussing Empire of Illusion on BookTV

89. Actually, Chomsky is 100% on the money when it comes to Israel.

Returning to the borders of 1967, like Chomsky argues, is the position most nations worldwide have taken in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It's by no means an absurd or controversial stance.

But still, like you say, nobody is ever 100% right. I said the same to seabeyond: there is nobody with whom I agree 100% of the time. Yet it was implied in this thread, from the start, that *because* people like Hedges and Chomsky are 'on our side' when it comes to politics, we should all blindly sign a pledge of allegiance to them and all their points of view. And if we don't, this is seen as a kind of self-serving, hypocritical act by men in order to 'protect' their 'smut' (= porn). I find this to be absurd, because somebody who's right nine times, doesn't automatically have to be right the tenth time.
