Noam Chomsky

an Interview about the Middle-East and particularly about Iran

The United States happens to be an extremely fundamentalist country. It is probably more fundamentalist than Iran. If you did a comparative analysis of extremist religious belief, I wouldn't at all be surprised if the United States would be beyond Iran. For example, about 40-50 percent of the population believes that the world is created 6000 years ago. I don't know if that is true in Iran. I doubt it. Maybe 80-90 percent of the population believes in miracles and most think that they've seen them. Maybe 70 percent think they witnessed them. So yes this is an extremely fundamentalist country.
