Book Reviews of What We Say Goes: Conversations on U.S. Power in a Changing World (American Empire Project)
Book Review: Chompsky is good for your global awareness
Summary: 4 Stars
My only complaint is the book is too short. It's a couple of hundred pages I think, but the interview format leaves a lot of space in between. Learn about Corporatist America and its quest for Empire and Global Domination, its use of the World Bank and IMF for blackmailing third world companies into selling off their state assets and infrastructure and cutting aid to the poor. And all the while supporting the ruthless dictators who maintain power with torture, massacres, mass imprisonment and disappearances. Did you know the sanctions against Iraq caused the death of millions of children due to their inability to get the supplies to keep the drinking water supply safe? And after destroying the country, the problem continues (see this report from a couple of years ago ([...])See what the newspapers won't tell you! From the Americas to the Middle East, Chomsky exposes the dirt on the U.S.and shows how are perceptions are warped by the conventional media.

Summary of What We Say Goes: Conversations on U.S. Power in a Changing World (American Empire Project)
An indispensable set of interviews on foreign and domestic issues with the bestselling author of Hegemony or Survival, "America's most useful citizen." (The Boston Globe)
?
In this new collection of conversations, conducted in 2006 and 2007, Noam Chomsky explores the most immediate and urgent concerns: Iran's challenge to the United States, the deterioration of the Israel-Palestine conflict, the ongoing occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan, the rise of China, and the growing power of the left in Latin America, as well as the Democratic victory in the 2006 U.S. midterm elections and the upcoming presidential race. As always, Chomsky presents his ideas vividly and accessibly, with uncompromising principle and clarifying insight.
The latest volume from a long-established, trusted partnership, What We Say Goes shows once again that no interlocutor engages with Chomsky more effectively than David Barsamian. These interviews will inspire a new generation of readers, as well as longtime Chomsky fans eager for his latest thinking on the many crises we now confront, both at home and abroad. They confirm that Chomsky is an unparalleled resource for anyone seeking to understand our world today.
