Hi all; Chomsky to bark in Pakistan:

Chomsky to lecture on terrorism
Dawn.com (Pakistani news), November 2, 2001
Noam Chomsky, one of America's most prominent dissidents, well-known for his long career of protest against US foreign policy, from the Vietnam War in the 1960s to the bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999, is arriving in Pakistan to share his views about the contemporary situation.

...
Organisers at Dawn have done a lot of hard work to arrange the lecture in Pakistan as the professor is scheduled two years in advance to deliver lectures. And, the lectures are not delivered to elite intellectuals only but they are mostly listened to by a popular audience. Despite the world-wide acclaim of his intellectual capabilities, interestingly enough, Chomsky has been left out in a way by the US media, a fact which the professor acknowledges. Explaining the reason for this, Chomsky himself says: "Why should they offer space to somebody who's trying to undermine their power, and to expose what they do?"

The lecture in Islamabad is expected to bring forth an interesting view of terrorism by Noam Chomsky and how the war against terrorism will be successful in the contemporary situation. Listening to recipient of the 1998 Japanese Kyoto Prize would be an eye-opener for many.
