Chomsky on CPT

Speaking at the American University of Beirut in Lebanon this week, Noam Chomsky painted a gloomy picture of international affairs under the US empire. At the end, when he was asked by a member of his audience "Is there any hope?", he mentioned "International solidarity movements, such as those in Central America and Palestine, and Christian Peacemaker Teams, who actually go to places being bombed by the U.S. and live with the people." On this note, here is an article in the Scotsman about Jan Benvie who did CPT training with my in Jan 2005 and is now joining them full time. Also here is an interview (Realaudio format)on CBC with former hostage Jim Loney.
