I agree with homingpigeon.
This is just illogical. Chomsky explicitly cited those people to show US policy elites understood the importance of control of the oil spigot, even the most liberal ones. He did not and does not cite them about what particular strategies they preferred to achieve this goal, but to show that US policy elites do consider it an important goal.
Insinuating it is somehow dishonest to cite them as evidence of the perceived importance in policy making circles of controlling the spigot because they personally happened to propose different strategies than other policy elites is absurd.
Apparently you do not understand the difference between claiming SOME Palestinians may have been involved in the hit, versus claiming it was only Palestinians and not Mossad at all.
Or do you think that the 11 Israelis captured on camera bumbling around in disguises, using stolen/forged passports, and stalking the target was all just an unfortunate coincidence?
"an Israeli guard . . . placed her under arrest for being in the West Bank without permission"
Who was in the West Bank 'without permission'?
