With over 200 people filling the Emerson Hall lecture hall before him, a debate-mongering Harvard Law School (HLS) professor set to speak after him, and members of a pro-Israel student group leafletting his event outside, the renowned MIT linguist and noted anti-Zionist Noam Chomsky delivered a remarkably soft 45-minute chronology of Israeli-Palestinian history yesterday. Chomsky walked audience members through a careful timeline of Israeli actions against the Palestinians, issuing academic criticisms of the United States and various scholars for their attitudes on the subject.

He says that King's speech against the Vietnam War, delivered at Riverside Church in April 1967, was not a feel-good speech. "It was a passionate cry to speak to these enormous problems that were linked to America's imperialism and militarism, and what he saw as the evils of capitalism."
