In October 2014, the Plymouth Institute for Peace Research (www.pipr.co.uk) asked Noam Chomsky to comment on some important world developments, including the threat of nuclear war, the recent escalation of violence in Gaza, and the growth of ISIS in Iraq. These sad and dangerous developments are particularly poignant given that they coincide(d) with the centenary of the First World War. This gives us no small clue about how much governments and publics have learnt from a century of war.
