I am not sure what exactly you need to know, but it seems like thoughts from the writers mind that has to do with his personal life, he writes it in an interesting and a bit humorous way. The last piece was written on June 25th relating about a day he went out with his daughter who has grown up to be almost as tall as he was and he was so proud of her, they had lunch together and then went for a walk downtown and he humorously mentions that he could walk down the street holding hands with a pretty girl cause it has been a while since he's done so. They then went to the library (obviously belongs to someone he knows) and the guy sold her books for 50LE, they both enjoyed it and he was proud to introduce her to everybody as his daughter so they won't get any faulty ideas. On their way they also met a film director and finally he took her home to her mom by a taxi cause he had no car (could not afford it) and went back home (that's a general idea of his last piece, not a  literal translation)

Chomksy has written numerous real books.  You should try his 'Hegemony or Survival'.  It's relatively short, not a series of transcribed interviews, and gives a good overview of recent world events from a non-USA centred perspective.  I also think it does a good job of demonstrating the double standards of the American elite, but then I'm not a True American...   \n\nAs far as errors go, I'm sure Chomsky himself would be happy to acknowledge any genuine factual errors in his ouevre, but interpretations of events are a lot more subjective.

Yes we are Europeans, the Americans regard us as Europeans, the special relationship is only one way and is mostly in our imagination (Iraq proved that).

i tink he is..but to the germans at that time he is not. Maybe he is too idealistic n the support of the germans at that time motivated him to get more n more overboard. I belief he is not evil at bith, maybe the society he lived in, had strong view abt the jews n he was influenced it n went ossessed wif these idoelogy.   hopefully i m being neutral.

First off, I didn't go to college to study history, but I enjoy writing.   I like entertainment writing as a hobby.\n\nWhen I read your short paper, your writing makes it sound like you know your material as well as a historian, but the paper is very, very dry.    I really couldn't follow the paper to well, even reading very slow, because it seemed like there were many topics being introduced into the same paragraph.   A paragraph should contain one topic.\n\nMaybe you think all this information fits, and if it does, you introduced too much at one time.   Try to break this down a little bit and make it a little simplier to read.   It seems like, people think that what makes a good writer is hard to comprehend sentences, but that is just the opposite.\n\nI'll give it to you, you certainly know your history, but try to make it a little fun.   Break it up a little bit and make it easy to read, so everyone is able to read it.

I suggest to you that you read 'Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee' by Dee Brown; and '500 Nations by Alvin Josephy, Jr.\n\nMost American Indians, if you were to try to discuss openly and fairly with you, would tell you they are quite aware of the tribal divisions among our ancestors.\n\nThese divisions were pivotal in the taking of American Indian lands, as the French, English and U.S. played various tribes against each other by promising them positions of power if their side won.\n\nI believe European history is rife with these kinds of dealings amongst warring factions of peoples too.\n\np.s. who's the author of the book you mention?  And, how could the white hurry up the eventual downfall of the American Indian?  Downfall to who else? The only people to conquer the American Indians WERE the white man.\n\np.p.s. of course tribes fought against each other for control of food supplies, etc. If the early American soil was "soaked in Indian blood", as you suggest, how would you descibe European soil as being?  Europeans killed many more millions of each other before they even thought about sailing over here.\n\np.p.p.s. My e-mail is Wlvrne1964@yahoo.com, if you want to seriously discuss this in a rational way.  I'll address all 3 of your questions.

Go to Yahoo or Google and do a search for the title.  You'll get a lot of hits.  This one is really good, from an online review at amazon.com:\n\n "Black Dogof Fate" Is a Fuzzy Grey Beast at Best , May 24, 2005\nReviewer:Bedros Afeyan "Bedros Afeyan" (Pleasanton, CA) - See all my reviews\n(REAL NAME)   \nPeter Balakian's book, "Black Dog of Fate," tries to be too many things\nand sadly fails at many of them. In essence, it is an attempt to tell a\nsort of Armenian-American story which I find not overly interesting or\ncompelling. I wish the author had done a bit more in-depth work to learn\nabout his people and their rich heritage before embarking to represent it\nor explain it or share it with non-Armenians, for he has much more to absorb\nand understand himself first. I find the Armenianness in this book to be\ntentative, unengaged and unconvincing. Pity, since the author seems to\nhave a lot of passion in his pursuit of other aspects of his life such as\nfootball, the Yankees, modern poetry, and exposing Turkish attempts to\nbuy (among others) Princeton professors to act as mouthpieces giving\nlegitimacy to their vile historical revisionism, practiced by the\n"modern" Turkish state and its organs.\n\nIt seems to be all the rage these days to elevate personal histories and\nfamily testimonials into the realm of fiction and novels. The "I" and "we"\nand "us" occupy center stage and the reader is invited to enjoy the\nintimacy that must surely be in place via this artifice. But is it realy?\nSince in order to make this legitimate, the writer must distance himself,\nat least initially, from all this old world exotica, and like the reader,\nquestion their validity or relevance in present day North American\nsociety. What are all these old world, old fashioned ghosts and traditions?,\nis the first cry of writer and reader alike, only, ofcourse, to be followed\nby a sharp bank turn where the writer steers the satisfied and in-place\nreader towards the opposite viewpoint wherein *this* culture and *this*\nlifestyle become suspect in light of some tentative spotting of cultural\nwealth that has been traded in or abandoned in order to swim swiftly towards\nmaterialistic, memory-free, self-redefining, "comfort" seeking and buying\nmores.\n\nIn the Balakian tale, one encounters suburbia instead of substance,\nworldly goods acquisition instead of deep roots that steady the soul,\nimmediate family and relatives running away from their true identities either\ntowards surrealism, the abstract and unemotional, or else towards medicine,\nrespectability and detachment. Young Balakian observes but never\nunderstands "the grandmother" for she is shielded culturally from being\nable to reach him by her very offsprings who can not and will not instill\nthe Armenian identity he will eventually seek but never quite find. Their\ncrime is self-denial and a march to the tune of America's mixmaster\npiper. "Be unlike your past and your future will be brighter," seems to be\nwhat America promises, at the very least. The intermediate generation listens\nand adopts this credo and Peter is left to find out but never quite\nunderstand just what cost his ancestors have paid to remain Armenian and\nto preserve our culture before the final denials on New Jersey pateos while\nenjoying, as if to serve sweet irony, full course Armenian meals and the\nmixing aromas of delicacies from the old country every Sunday.\n\nPeter is lost alright, but as the book sadly shows, he remains lost.\nParaphrasing or quoting Ambassador Morgenthau does not an Armenian genocide\nexpert make. Personal family testimonials of the Turkish atrocities does\nnot a genocide history make (For that, read Vahakn Dadrian's "The History\nof the Armenian Genocide" Berghahn Books, 1995). Episodic accounts can be\ndismissed by the Turks as hear-say and as mere isolated incid

I think that it depends on the time that these history books are written and you have to understand that history is ALLWAYS written from the victor's side or the dominant side.  History isn't always a recount of what happened, there are so many details missing that you cannot truly know history of an even without experiencing it.  I am from Ukraine and I know how you feel, we get constantly lumped into Russia and most books can't even tell them apart.  History, if you studied some history of the past, is used to the time's advantage for the people in power.  To turn people away from the belief that King Richard III (i believe) was evil and horrible, they repainted all the paintings and rewrote the records to make him sound like a lunatic hunchback when infact he wasn't that bad and had a very good posture.  History is never unbiased because it is written by a human being who writes about other people and they have to link events and conclusions.  I have read some literature from Iranian authors on particular topics and some from western authors and the information doesn't match up.  When people write they write things that they think their audience will find interesting and not allways what needs to be said.  You have to read objectively and if you want to enlighten the world maybe you should start some program of middle eastern cultural education or maybe even write a book.\n\nGood luck. :)

He is professor at Mediterrenean University (Turkey). He is head of Classical Archaeology department. His ideas about Troian culture are interesting. He says if Troian culture is an Greek originated culture, why it is born in Anatolia where is only a colony of the Greeks that time. He says origins of Troian culture is Anatolia. \n\nHe founded archaeology department of Ataturk University. He had written 5 books and nearly 50 scientific articles and many popular articles.

And this is coming from the guy who said he'd be interested in an open discussion with me about 1 book he read about the history of the American Indians which made him an instant expert on early American Indians' tribal societies.\n\nWhen I refuted some of his claims, he immeditately started in with the insults on me.\nSo much for really being interested in learning about my ancestors from a modern American Indian such as myself.\n\np.s. I suggest that "zeepogee" watch School House Rock's "America" video. The "Great American Melting Pot" might help this person realize that America is not just "white", but multi-colored, & multi-racial.
