MIT professor, world-renowned political dissident, linguist and author, Noam Chomsky examines topics largely ignored or glossed over in the election campaigns of American president Barack Obama and his Republican challenger Mitt Romney: China, the Arab Spring, global warming, nuclear proliferation, and the military threat posed by Israel and the US versus Iran.
