Chomsky on violence
Nov 09, 2002, 17:25
"I'm of course opposed to terror, any rational person is, but I think that if we are serious about the question of terror, serious about the question of violence, we have to recognise that it is a tactical and hence moral matter.
Incidentally tactical issues are basically moral issues as they have to do with human consequences and if we are interested in reducing the amount of violence in the world it at least arguable and perhaps even sometimes true that a terroristic act does diminish the amount of violence in the world hence a person who is opposed to violence will not be opposed to that act."
