This situation certainly does not look good for RFPI. I don¹t understand
their argument about free speech being a reason for them to stay. The
problem is property usage. They are there under a lease agreement with
the University of Costa Rica and the current administration wants that
lease to end. They will have to go.

It's even more than free speech. It's war! Peace organizations at war!!
As James Latham puts it:

"Instead of focusing on how to eliminate a fellow peace organization, we
need to channel our energy toward eliminating war, poverty and hunger."

What terrors might the University for Peace commit after RFPI is eliminated?
I won't know until Noam Chomsky's next endless lecture.

Well, if RFPI's annual budget were spent eliminating poverty, perhaps it
might be for the best.

Make no mistake - I like RFPI but I sure don't think they are irreplacable.

Become the Central American Headquarters for Bob Jones University?

[sigh] Ain't /that/ the truth?!!!


It's such a pity that those who would teach us to think logically are
incapable of thinking logically.


Chomsky was very informative in the 1950's. That was before he stopped
thinking, of course.


I understand that his body is still functioning.


Another reason people should have a "living will".

But that assumes the people working for RFPI have other marketable skills.

All the shows could be now be carried by the US domestic SW broadcasters.
As long as they can find somebody to pay. I don't think the amount of money
is huge.

Oh, my. James Latham didn't mention that.

Noam Chomsky has gone beyond the need to think. He's figured it all out.
Now there's nothing left but the explaining.
