9-11: Was There an Alternative? by Noam Chomsky
3.0
It's hard to argue with someone as well read and complete as Chomsky. So rarely do I find myself arguing with him, even when I disagree.
As usual this book presents some of Chomsky's very detailed analysis on US actions around the globe and his opinions on the outcomes of those actions. It seems a very clear line for Chomsky, between US actions over the past 20 years and the terrorist attacks of 9-11.
A lot of the material in this book has been printed before in other Chomsky books. This one is sort of a "new organization of the timelines and 'cause and effect' policy notes" that Chomsky has presented.
This is a strong read for anyone wanting to hear a clear concise voice on policies, politics, and history that pre-dates 9-11, whether you think those policies are to blame or not.
