Have been so proud to work on this book over the last few years, and it's finally coming into print. It totally destroys self-serving U.S. mythology about our benevolent commitment to freedom and justice, & exposes the true face of American power. Coming from @penguinpress in Oct

@penguinpress Has been the highlight of my life getting to work with Prof. Chomsky on a book that summarizes his critique of US foreign policy, updating it for our times and introducing to a new audience. Worked hard to help him produce a highly readable, comprehensive intro.

@penguinpress Note: we worked on this in 2021-2023 but as some of you know he has not been making public appearances since last year, updates on that available here, I don't have anything to add to this: https://t.co/kSYMpEVmCL

@NathanJRobinson @penguinpress Is there some other less malevolent country you would feel better about living in? No one forced you to immigrate here and no one is forcing you to stay.

@NathanJRobinson @penguinpress I'll definitely buy it. Haven't read much Chomsky lately, but he was my guiding light for years. I have a very detailed email reply by him somewhere in response to a question I asked about Palestine in the 90's. He also responded via the "Chomsky Chat" forum on Znet...

@NathanJRobinson @penguinpress nice. fuck America! there's an original theme we haven't heard much the last 50 years. can't wait to see what original gems you've uncovered. personally, I would have written a book about 100+ other countries who are worse. but I get it. you gotta go where the money is.

@NathanJRobinson @penguinpress The irony—something Americans lack in their diet—is that the US has done more harm to itself than to others, and those chickens are coming home to roost right now.
