Chomsky Treats Sickness by Sickness! A strange Prescription to Challenge Trump, By Adel Samara

Many intellectuals, especially in the Arab Homeland, are highly impressed by
Chomsky’s writings either in linguistics or in critiques of US policies and even his
sneaky writings/critique against Zionist Ashkenazi Entity – Israel (AZE).
This inferior impression led to two catastrophic consequences for people’s
consciousness:
First: Those intellectuals failed to grasp the inner loyalty of Chomsky to
capitalism/imperialism and Zionism.
Second: By doing that, they encouraged Chomsky to continue his service to those
enemies of humanity. (See appendices)
This article will not and does not have space to review all of Chomsky’s large
production. That’s why I will concentrate on his recent keynote speech at the
Progressive International’s inaugural summit 18 September 2020, as his
contribution/voting against Donald Trump’s struggling to renew his presidency. (See
URL below)
Chomsky, as an anti-Marxist avoids even mentioning terms like Marxism,
Communism or even Socialism. It is because, even when he is too old, he insists to
serve capitalism until his last day, or in other word to apart new human generations
far from revolutionary discourse.
While he includes Internationalism in his article, he does not continues in the right
direction to write on Socialist or Communist internationalism. He is in fact going with
the topic of a reformer summit “the Progressive International”.

Progressive, what a simple and humble, but vague term which is coined carefully to be
far, as much as possible, from real Internationalism, i.e. Communist or Marxist
Internationalism. It is even a distortion of the term far from its first coining, by Marx.

A lot of criminals some time look as “progressive”, for instance when the former
fascist Zionist prime minister Yitzhak Rabin stopped breaking the bones of
Palestinian children during Palestinian Intifada 1987 or when the Saudi Crown Prince
Mohammad Bin Salman (MBS), who cuts the journalist Jamal Khashoggi’s body into
pieces, allows women in Saudi Arabia to drive cars.!
The main argument of Chomsky’s paper is against Donald Trump, but not against the
environment that breeds Trump, i.e. the bourgeois liberal democracy transformation
since 40 years to neo-liberalism. But, it is hard to grasp Chomsky’s wickedness unless
you put your finger on his weakness and contradiction which are his avoidance of
pointing on capitalism as the source of all current human crises.
Any eloquent writing on the current era especially in its globalism stage, without
reducing/attributing them to their incubator, capitalism, is meaningless. Or, in
defending capitalism and criticizing imperialism is an indirect collaboration with
capitalism on the one hand, and contradicting the logic of history because imperialism
is the natural development of capitalism, on the other.
While Chomsky avoids, even mentioning capitalism when he criticizes Trump, he is in
fact hiding the real environment which Trump himself is its natural and necessary
product, i.e. capitalism.
Chomsky, in his paper, like an advocate who is asking the world to pay the price of
the crimes of capitalism without mentioning the criminal, i.e. capital itself! This form
of demand is a breach not a role of challenging and terminating the criminal.
That is why the term capitalism is mentioned only once even when he was quoting
another person.
In fact, the obvious fact is that capitalism is a crime in human history in both its
prosperous or crisis.
During prosperity, capital exploiting the working class, gaining surplus value
transformed into wealth for accumulation and more accumulation, a process which
encourages capital to invade rural areas in one country and later to invade other
nations either by force, culture and un-equal exchange. That is why countries of the
periphery are still suffering from backwardness and will continue to do so as long as
they do not uproot their dependent ruling classes.

When capitalism, i.e. in the US falls into an internal crisis it is going to downsizing,
increasing taxes of the masses, minimizing taxes on capitalists, smuggling capital
through money laundering to safe heavens…etc, or:
Launch wars against other nations
Intensify its’ internal, national, protectionism
Ordering nations of the periphery not to adopt protectionism.
In other words, the US capitalist regime exports the crisis to other classes and nations.
There is no meaning for any imagination that Chomsky did not know all of that and
even much more! To quote him from his same paper:
“… The submissiveness of the Republican Party under Trump and McConnell in its
service to the rich is truly remarkable, even for the neoliberal standards and their
customary glorification of greed. An illustration is provided by the leading specialists
in tax policy, the economists Emmanuel Saez and Gabriel Zucman. They show that in
2018, after tax fraud that was Trump-McConnell’s only accomplishment so far, “for
the first time in a hundred years, billionaires paid less [in taxes] than steel workers,
teachers and retirees * inside”and thus“a century of tax history”was practically wiped
out.”
But all of the above mentioned crimes are caused by capitalism.
Despite all of that, Chomsky is still worried about the fate of America if Trump is
elected again as if the man Trump, came from the sky, not the direct result/product
of the capitalist America as the dictator of the globe, and if there will be any chance to
liberate the world, it is only by the defeat and termination of American capitalism by
socialist forces and as a step of global liberation and emancipation of humanity from
capitalism.
Chomsky’s cry came two weeks before American elections to give his cry some form
of holy one. According to his own writing that he is an original/fundamental Zionist,
Chomsky is trying to behave, preach as prophet, a Zionist prophet but not from the
sky.
There is no doubt that Chomsky is aware of the important paper of Samir Amin’s call
for a New Internationalism and for sure of the Communist Internationalism of Marx
since 170 years ago, but Chomsky and the summit of “progressives”, as liberal
capitalists are against socialism.

Ironically, Chomsky and the people of summit of “progressives” are trying to avoid
“Downing» of the world which caused by the same capitalism but through
maintaining capitalism itself!
Chomsky did not touch the real tool for protection of the globe, i.e. the working class,
the poor peasants, the marginalized, all of women…etc and escaped to cry in the
voting box which had depreciated more and more to the extent that the “elected” put
the society inside the box during all his period and opens it after the end for next
jailing of the public opinion.
Chomsky and his followers wrote thousands of books against the former socialist
regime calling them “totalitarianism”! What a joke! If the communist parties were the
only ruling parties, which are true, the neo-liberal plurality put the people in a box
whose’ key in the hand of one man, Trump. If not, why is Chomsky crying and is
frightened from an individual, not party as the case of the socialist regimes.
If this is not the case, how come millions of demonstrators fled to the streets of USA
and Europe rejecting imperialist wars against Iraq and Afghanistan, but the rulers
launched the brutal wars without being questioned later! To put it briefly, Chomsky
never touched the real beginning of world downing as a result of the defeat of labor
by capital.
Chomsky warns the world of the dangerous of wealth accumulation in the hands of
few which is right, but this accumulation is a result of the main cause which is
capitalism as a system during its stages, colonialism, imperialism and globalism, i.e.
capitalism is a threat to the world not because it is breeding wealth accumulation but
because of its’ mere nature as a system of exploitation and pauperization.
Chomsky correctly criticizes free market, but, as he has done against wealth
accumulation, he did not attribute it to its’ practical and historical sin which is the
private ownership as the battle and victory of those who own over those who disown
and mainly males over females.
He feels sad because the free market leads to monopoly capital and terminates
competition. But, this is also a necessary result of capitalism despite the fact that a lot
of bourgeois economists are still painfully affected by the decline of competition and
semi-competition for the sake of both monopoly and monopsony.
William Shepherd mentioned in his good study, Economics of Industrial Organization
1997.p. 210, twenty two obstacles used by companies to displace their competitors
and maintain their monopoly authority.

In fact, the era of globalization brought the termination of competition, regulation,
large state apparatus, real taxing of the rich, and more taxation of the poor,
privatization…etc. This confirms the fact that history never typically repeats itself. I
don’t believe in the well known saying that history repeats itself in two forms tragedy
and comedy, but only in a similar manner.
To quote Chomsky, he wrote in his paper:
“… In the coming weeks, the problems in the two imperial great powers of modern
times will come to a head”
In fact, and to a certain extent, the problems between USA and China might come to
head, but Chomsky ignores the fact that the same Trump as the head of US
capitalism/imperialism which lunches a global trade war especially against China and
prepares for military war, is the reason that pushed China’s president to warn Chinese
army to be ready for a war of defense. Chomsky did not hesitate to accuse China that
it is an imperial power! It is strange from an expert thinker to reach this conclusion
that easy.
Chomsky wrote:
“The latter may seem inappropriate at first, but it isn’t. The observed decline in
democracy fits into this gloomy trio. Because the only hope of escaping the two
threats to the “end” is a living democracy, in which concerned and informed citizens
are fully involved in deliberation, policymaking and direct action.”
The source of both mentioned great threats, war and decline of democracy is
capitalism. The question is: How to breed “living democracy” from the same capitalist
system, which breeds them! And will capitalist authority let “informed citizens are
fully involved in deliberation, policymaking and direct action “, to do that? I am afraid
that this attack on democracy is just the beginning. The change from capitalism must
not be in reform, but in antagonistic contradiction which replaces it by socialism.
Chomsky added: “Trumps recently warned that if he is not satisfied with the outcome
of the November elections, he may not step down. This threat is taken very seriously
in high circles. «
If Trump might not accept his personal defeat, will capital gave up and let “informed
citizens are fully involved in deliberation, policymaking and direct action”?” to
terminate its’ power, to quote Chomsky himself again:
“…But it’s not just governments. The same is true of the fossil fuel industry, the big
banks that fund it, and other industries that benefit from actions that seriously

endanger the “survival of mankind,” according to a leaked internal memo from
America’s largest bank.”
Will the “direct action” be enough to challenge this regime? Or, it is the socialist
revolution as the only radical force for real change?
Chomsky added:
“Free markets” led to monopoly with less competition and innovation as the strong
swallowed the weak”.
Chomsky do not only avoids mentioning capitalism, he also avoids calling Trump and
his partners with their real name, i.e. those of politicized Religion, the no-
conservatives, the Hindustan chauvinism , Zionism and Wahabism including Viktor
Orban’s “illiberal democracy” in Hungary .
With no introduction, he finally became close to Marxism:
“It’s kind of a class struggle on a global scale. It is no exaggeration to say that the fate
of the human experiment depends on the outcome of this struggle.”
But, a class struggle towards what? The old Zionist did not continue.
