Prof. John Mearsheimer Believes Israel's Leaders Act Foolishly Because of Uncle Sam 

Usually with theft and fraud someone ends up in jail.

in the early 1900's, theodor herzl wrote some newspaper columns suggesting european jews move to palestine, and start a jewish state there. in 1925 enough had done so, so that ze'ev jabotinsky could announce the founding of the 'jewish national army,' with a mission to cleanse palestine of all but jews. irgun started killing then and continues until 1948, when it became the israeli defense force. still at it. smart? if gangsters are smart, they were smart. but they were murderers who shot their way near power, and then were legitimized by harry truman's cabinet. over-night not gangsters, over-night the people of palestine were robbed of their country, by usa politicians who saw advantage in supporting the theft of palestine by bandits. and politicians. difficult to say which more despicable.

Israel was allowed to become too strong. Like a spoilt child

“Control the cash box and you control the world.” Jorkin counselled the young Scrooge.

Uncle Sam and uncle Fool must be America and Biden.

Professor Mearsheimer is the voice of reason . If we only had an individual like him in government , things could be different with respect to our relationship with Israel. We need someone in government who can exert the necessary pressure on Netanyahu to put the breaks on with his military campaigns. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="299">4:59</a>

Do not fully understand why the US is always unconditionally supporting Israel.

Politicians supports Israel while vast American public doesn't have such feelings. Israel is making huge mistake and miscalculation.

Wherever the British go ,trouble always follows!

Netanyahu’ s father changed his name to Netanyahu to make it appear he was from that area ( ( Palestinian/ Israel area) They are probably from Eastern Europe or Russia.

Thanks Prof. for your core insight, I firmly believe that the people in America and Europe are genius and kind, so the jews majority, they will neve support violence, hate and killings. Israel need good leadership. Present leadership can be extraordinary if they change their mind.

One of the signs of God’s displeasure is that He gives people foolish leaders who destroy them.

Special relationship! = Juices paying & controlling American politicians = Your average Americans paying for Israel = Your average Americans are fooled to go to a war they have nothing to do with = 😂😂😂😂😂

It's all about Europe and usa bought European jewish in Palestine with gun.

The same factors played before and now.

Uncle Sam has footers call tax payers and money printer to make any wars profitable.

Ego is a hell of thing. Even the jews arent susceptible to ego fallacy

man, this guy is never right. He was wrong with Ukraine and he is wrong with Israel.

Foolish because they choose the road that will lead eventually to ruin instead of naking sure they follow the safe approach to lead to their goal

Opinions are like assholes, everybody's got one and everyone thinks everyone else's stinks

Ask John who did 9/11!

"The Palestinian struggle is not just a cry for justice. It’s a blistering battle for the most fundamental human rights that every living soul on this planet should inherit by birthright. It’s an unyielding resistance against the oppressive, suffocating grip of occupation and the callous denial of the most basic human dignity ... The battle for justice in Palestine is not merely a political struggle. It's an elemental moral battle ... If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the oppressing. I implore every person of conscience, regardless of their origins or beliefs, to stand steadfast with the Palestinian people in their unwavering quest for justice." - attributed to Malcolm X

uncle SAM? not son SAM? are you sure?

Marshmallow is always wrong about Israel.

volume!

Uncle Sam - the teat - may come to the rescue, but not Jehovah the fairy tale creature.

"Israel founder were so smart"? Maybe don't post in english if you can't use it.

It does not matter what you guys think you have showen a complete contempt for Israel. Israel may have lots of different nationals but one thing that unifies all israelies … it’s the threat from outside. You profess to know Israeli 🤥all you know is your absolute love to see Israel dismantled. It’s been growing stronger every day for 75 yrs. And will continue to do so… so for a professor go and educate yourself about the region and leave you bigoted opinion at the door and try to learn something… oh ya I forgot it’s easier to sell your books and interviews if you hate Israel… am Israel chai 🇮🇱✡️🇮🇱✡️from 🇨🇦

Zelensky does not know Politics. Yes! it appears so, by his part using so much of Aid and Military Hardware and fighting a war without a strategic Plan. Trump has a plan and he has been a player (actor) in fake American Wrestling ring, fighting, shouting and winning as preplanned by the playwriter. Trump then became a wealthy businessman after many bankruptcies, that's again a few tricks of the business game. See how, Zelensky is. An actor, who was really a popular actor (as it appears today it must have been made popular) and he became a politician and gambled to go against Russia and Russia invaded Ukraine. Thereafter, he got a lot of money and assistance from friends and used the assets of brave Ukrainian souls (the patriots one would say) but looks that he has wasted both the assistance and soldiers moral. This is not an act of prudence which did not achieve the aspirations of Ukrainians and the supporters to win the war. As Prof. indicated the swing State will now be in favor of Trump because of this Zelensky Drama. That is what a viewer can understand from the answer given to the extra question. Humbly a layman can pose a question, "Is this behavior of Zelensky, by failing Ukrainians and the West is because of USA?" No! One person could answer. Then why? This is due to inexperience, one answer could be. The "caption" indicates, [Prof. John Mearsheimer Believes Israel's Leaders Act Foolishly Because of Uncle Sam], Is this something like this Zelensky's immatureness, or ignorance. Israelites are not ignorant or immature in wars or using the technology at war. This may well apply to Ukrainians under Zelensky, one can argue and not to Israel behavior. Could it be then the "overdependence" or "over reliance" by the Israel or Ukraine, which relies in the dragging of the war? This cannot be justified either, whether Israel is losing or Ukraine is in the verge of collapse. Is that then the "Stubbornness" of Israeli and Ukrainian leadership (while at war and just before the war)? Stubbornness? may be of Zelensky at times and the behavior of Israel at all times as Professor describes in his many lectures. So what? Has the war stopped? Has the ultimate goal is nearing? Is there a plan? to stop fierce fighting and pave the way for a negotiation for a lasting Peace ( in both cases on the contours of land rights and free and independent statehood). What an interpretation! 1.Israel is winning the war against terror and Ukraine is loosing the war against the invader. 2. Israel is loosing the war against their enemy and Ukraine is winning the war against Russia. Can this be different? 3. Both fronts supported by the USA and the West is winning 4. Both fronts not favored by USA and the West is loosing (Long Term or Short Term is another sub division) What a complexity?

Mr John have a knowledge Iran recieving most powerful and dangerous missile from north Korea

Listen, listen, Radio Moscow is speaking!

Yahoos future is finished period over

Who are smart and who is foolish?

Mearsheimer is a bit of an enigma to me. When he talks about Israel he comes off as a Jew hater but I don’t think it’s that. Of course I could be wrong. It seems more like he just doesn’t givashit about the Jews and he’s just trying to be a fair advocate of the facts. I continue to give him the benefit of the doubt but I’d like to ask him this: If you had to live in the Middle East and had a choice of where that would be, where would you choose?

Very wrong and foolish assesment about unconditional reliance on USA.

This guy is an idiot. The Israelis fight a lot among themselves, but they always unite in the face of a common enemy. As a matter of fact, all jews all over the world support Israel. Even during Israel war of independence, American jews provided finance and a lot of war material despite efforts by the American government to impose an embargo. So please don't live in the fantasy that Israel is in trouble internally. We have survived the greatest of tyrants for 2000 years and we will survive no matter what.
