This is a well-argued and well-researched book, which is usual for Chomsky. As the quotes on the book's jacket suggest, reading the book is worthwhile whether you agree with him or not.

Much like Michael Moore in his "Dude, Where's My Country?", Chomsky exposes the double-standards and outright lies of his government. Unlike Moore's "everyman" approach, Chomsky uses "dry" logic to make his points - the best way to write this type of book, in my opinion.
