Chomsky: NSA Spying = Attack, Not Protection

Noam Chomsky called foul on Obama Administration claims that NSA secret spying keeps the U.S. people safe, declaring in public statements Tuesday and Wednesday that the scandal is tantamount to an attack on the U.S. people.

The linguistics professor, activist, and public intellectual proclaimed that, in the darkest irony, the very government snooping in the name of security is making the world less safe through the open-ended War on Terror.
