Download or read book The New Military Humanism written by Noam Chomsky. This book was released on 1999. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyzing the NATO bombing, Noam Chomsky challenges the New Humanism. With a powerful grasp of history -- and an incisive argument about its relevance in this new era -- Chomsky peels back rhetorical claims that the United States and its allies fight for a world where those responsible for ethnic cleansing have nowhere to hide.With his uniquely powerful style, Chomsky reviews the many facts that just won't do. From administration knowledge that bombing would escalate Serb atrocities, to the opportunities for diplomacy passed over in favor of war, the facts are so numerous as to warrant a chapter on the denial syndrome: an affliction necessary to hold the official version of reality in place.
