The United States is the “worlds leading terrorist state,” based on its deadly, CIA-run operations in the likes of Nicaragua and Cuba, according to new op-ed by historian and social philosopher Noam Chomsky. In a new piece posted at Truthout.org, Chomsky pointed to the Central Intelligence Agency’s classified review of its own efforts to arm insurgencies across the globe in its 67-year history. As RT previously reported, the CIA conducted the effectiveness analyses while the Obama administration contemplated arming rebels fighting against President Bashar Assad’s forces in Syria. The New York Times was the first to uncover the story and Chomsky opened by suggesting the Times’ own headline for it should have been titled, Its official: The U.S. is the worlds leading terrorist state, and proud of it,” rather than CIA Study of Covert Aid Fueled Skepticism About Helping Syrian Rebels.
