Why Israel is in deep trouble: John Mearsheimer with Tom Switzer 

Yup. Because after the fall of Saddam, Iran had more influence on domestic politics inside Iraq.

It's a shame that those who are right never get credit for being right, yet those who were wrong and are responsible for making and promoting eventually disastrous policies are never held to account and often get promoted, and enjoy long careers

@@alexpartridge3317 Because the truth is threatening to power so guys who say whatever they want to hear are promoted to the top. It is also the pattern of late state Empires when the castles and courts are filled with clowns dancing around inept "leadership. "

Yes, he was right. Which is why you'll NEVER see him on the lamestream Propaganda media.

I agree. It is about time they stand up to the bully.

In what way? Every bit of archeology in Israel is evidence of Jewish presence for thousands of years. (Coins, inscriptions, towns, cities). Not a single thing shows anything else. Have you seen Jordan Petersons interview with the son of hamas founder? How do you explain an Egyptian stele from the 9th Century BC that identifies Israel by name? Or a canaanite one mentioning king David from the house of David, in the land of Israel? Everyone used to kno this stuff before globalists used the tech to deceive and create chaos in order to install one world governance once they've used the oppressor vs oppressed narrative to get those who bought into it to tear down the old world so they can literally own the planet and everyone on it.

Sorry... Palestine didnt exist. That is just a name Rome gave to Israel after they invaded in 70 AD. I know you think you are so smug but you dont know history. It was under the Ottomans who were not even Arab from 1517 to 1917 and there was never a Palestinian state. The Arabs who call themselves Palestinian came to the area after 1880 (not the Bedouins who today are citizens of Israel and serve in the Israel military).

You are naive.

​@@brutallyremastered4255no, not true. First of all, there are not hundreds of experts.Further, Mearsheimer is not a historian like Ilan Pappe, but history is not the aim of his talk. He focuses on the wider geopolitical aspects of the conflict and he is the master when it comes to that.

Yes... I have been thinking this for a while. Netanyahu himself explained why he supported Hamas... This is not a secret, yet never communicated in the western world...

You're not going to do that thing where you remove all responsibility from Palestinians. How racist. They're not capable of thinking for themselves are they? Its Israel is it? That's why they attacked?

​​​@@uncoiledfish2561 that's how you think if you really don't try to understand.

Yup and piers Morgan will NEVER SAY IT ...only constantly ask do you condemn hamas ??????...why don't u ask the man who funded hamas

Because our mainstream media is too coward to face the Zionist lobby to bring the truth to the American people.

You can hear how level headed he is

I agree with him on this, not on Russia being justified in invading Ukraine.

He cherry picks history to fit the idea box he creates for himself. His idea that Russia is not Imperial nor has Imperial designs is flat out wrong. He doesn't admit he's wrong either because that would be a downgrade to his brand. A democratic and economically thriving Ukraine is a fundamental threat to Putins regime. This notion about NATO expansion is total bs .. yet your former prof readily spews this idea. Sweden / Finland are now in NATO - why ? Because those countries fear Imperialist Russia as do the Baltic states. Mearshimer is a broken man.. same with his wrong take on Israel / Palestinian conflict. "Drive them out". He should be able to site actual statistics on that .. if that was the plan ... "ethnic cleansing" there should be less Palestinians in Gaza and West Bank than a decade ago .... except thats not the case. He's an anti-semite cloaked in academia.

He was on of my professors when I was an undergrad at UofC. The first and second year he taught there. Very, very thoughtful and correct analysis at every step. Intellectual honesty through and through, unlike some other academics.

It’s considered impolitic to be right too soon

Either that, or that he is a hollow populist that preys upon the mind of the weak to spread hate and ignorance

This entire presentation is a tragedy of deception and hot bubbling horse manure. _1)) “Israel is an Apartheid State”. As a South African and someone who proudly voted and stood up against the apartheid government, and who has visited Israel - I can say that this is a fowl lie. In Israel, Arabs&Palestinians can vote, are in parliament, have access to the same health care and are even in the Israeli military. THIS WAS AN UTTER IMPOSSIBILITY in apartheid South Africa. _2)) “Israel wants to ethnically cleanse”. As a nuclear power, Israel has had the power to wipe out every living Palestinian for many decades now - has it? Since 2005 when Gaza became sovereign- their population has steadily increased by over 40%. This is the polar opposite of ethnic cleansing, and yet this Mearsheimer has the gall to use the same term used to describe the Holocaust and Rwandan genocide! _3)) “After giving Gaza to the Palestinians, Israel immediately turned it into an open air prison”. Actually before making Gaza autonomous , both sides signed many peace agreements. Literally 3 months after gaining sovereignty, the Gaza Palestinians began firing death rockets at Israeli civilians. The result? Israel instituted protective measures. Then more rockets were fired, resulting in ever increasing spiral of security measures such as strong borders, barricades , blockades etc. (To date, over 100 000 rockets fired at Israel). Israel forcefully and painfully removing its own people from their homes and communities and giving Gaza COMPLETE autonomy was the ultimate test of ‘will a two state solution work?’. Make no mistake that with all the international funding and donations , Gaza could have easily become a mini Dubai by now with a vibrant safe economy. However with Hamas unceasingly calling for the murder of every living Israeli man woman and child and instituting this as their state policy, THEY CHOSE a different future for themselves! _4)) The great buffoonery of John Mearsheimer is that he treats this conflict as a territorial dispute, and a political dispute. NOTHING could be further from the truth. The majority root cause of the entire conflict is because of what the Palestinians are heavily invested in - and that ladies and gentlemen is ISLAMIC FUNDAMENTALISM/EXTREMISM. There is good reason why the largest security wall on the border of Gaza has just been built, not by the Israeli’s but by the Egyptians. That’s right, it’s because the Palestinians aided and supported an ISLAMIC EXTREMIST group called The Muslim Brotherhood against Egypt’s government. The Palestinians have long chosen the worlds greatest sponsor of terrorism and brutal tyranny- the Islamic Republic of Iran as their mentor and sponsor. _______ THE FUNDAMENTAL ROOT CAUSE OF THIS ENTIRE CONFLICT is EXACTLY THE SAME as the EXTREMISM that flew the airliners into the Twin Towers ; that stole and raped 300 Nigerian school girls (who’ve never been seen again) ; that slaughtered so many in the France and Belgium terrorist attacks ; that bombed and set fire to churches in the Philippines, that murdered so many innocents in the Kenyan shopping mall attacks ; that beheaded dozens of Coptic Christians in Egypt , that annihilated entire towns and forced thousands of Kurdish women into sexual slavery - THE LIST GOES ON AND ON , and will continue until all the worlds infidels either convert or die. _5)) But as ‘genius’ John Mearsheimer says, let’s blame EVERYTHING on Israel

Fundamentally Islam acknowledges Judaism and Judaism denies Islam, Moses had an Arab wife and Muhammad had a Jewish Wife. These religions and races have always been very close both being offspring of Abraham, but the Jews failed to follow Moses while the Arabs succeeded in following Muhammad, and this is a forever despair and jealousy of the Jewish people, so they want to be superior not equal, and they’re outnumbered 100 to 1, so they feel justified to use every tool and method available to obtain superiority because they’re the underdog.

In parallel, I as Israeli am not allowed to enter to the area of temple mount, only Muslims do. Also after 7pm, in Jerusalem, I am not allowed to enter the Muslim quarters of the old city, only Muslims can enter. You know nothing about life in Israel. Not for jews and not for Arabs.

I'm glad you can present your first hand experiences. Just one of many, yet even worse occurs. Good on you for helping those that have no understanding of what actually goes on in Israel and Palestine in relation to apartheid and racism to get a better understanding.

Does every Palestinian life cost American taxpayers $50 million or more? Gaza’s population 2 million Israeli’s population 10 million America’s investment billions upon *BILLIONS*

@@madwisdom4929 Israel has been getting $3 billion a year from US taxpayers in military aid alone for the last few decades.

Realism will set you free. Netanyahu, Biden and Zelensky could all do with a wee dose of realism. Sadly all three rely on narrative and that is the antithesis of realism.

No mention of the Quran and the teaching of the religion. If you talk to Arabs in Israel and they will tell you there is no appartheid. If Israel wanted to ethnically cleanse Gaza it would of been done already. Israel wanted peace with Gaza but when they keep trying to blow them up what choice did they have than to build a wall.

This entire presentation is a tragedy of deception and hot bubbling horse manure. _1)) “Israel is an Apartheid State”. As a South African and someone who proudly voted and stood up against the apartheid government, and who has visited Israel - I can say that this is a fowl lie. In Israel, Arabs&Palestinians can vote, are in parliament, have access to the same health care and are even in the Israeli military. THIS WAS AN UTTER IMPOSSIBILITY in apartheid South Africa. _2)) “Israel wants to ethnically cleanse”. As a nuclear power, Israel has had the power to wipe out every living Palestinian for many decades now - has it? Since 2005 when Gaza became sovereign- their population has steadily increased by over 40%. This is the polar opposite of ethnic cleansing, and yet this Mearsheimer has the gall to use the same term used to describe the Holocaust and Rwandan genocide! _3)) “After giving Gaza to the Palestinians, Israel immediately turned it into an open air prison”. Actually before making Gaza autonomous , both sides signed many peace agreements. Literally 3 months after gaining sovereignty, the Gaza Palestinians began firing death rockets at Israeli civilians. The result? Israel instituted protective measures. Then more rockets were fired, resulting in ever increasing spiral of security measures such as strong borders, barricades , blockades etc. (To date, over 100 000 rockets fired at Israel). Israel forcefully and painfully removing its own people from their homes and communities and giving Gaza COMPLETE autonomy was the ultimate test of ‘will a two state solution work?’. Make no mistake that with all the international funding and donations , Gaza could have easily become a mini Dubai by now with a vibrant safe economy. However with Hamas unceasingly calling for the murder of every living Israeli man woman and child and instituting this as their state policy, THEY CHOSE a different future for themselves! _4)) The great buffoonery of John Mearsheimer is that he treats this conflict as a territorial dispute, and a political dispute. NOTHING could be further from the truth. The majority root cause of the entire conflict is because of what the Palestinians are heavily invested in - and that ladies and gentlemen is ISLAMIC FUNDAMENTALISM/EXTREMISM. There is good reason why the largest security wall on the border of Gaza has just been built, not by the Israeli’s but by the Egyptians. That’s right, it’s because the Palestinians aided and supported an ISLAMIC EXTREMIST group called The Muslim Brotherhood against Egypt’s government. The Palestinians have long chosen the worlds greatest sponsor of terrorism and brutal tyranny- the Islamic Republic of Iran as their mentor and sponsor. _______ THE FUNDAMENTAL ROOT CAUSE OF THIS ENTIRE CONFLICT is EXACTLY THE SAME as the EXTREMISM that flew the airliners into the Twin Towers ; that stole and raped 300 Nigerian school girls (who’ve never been seen again) ; that slaughtered so many in the France and Belgium terrorist attacks ; that bombed and set fire to churches in the Philippines, that murdered so many innocents in the Kenyan shopping mall attacks ; that beheaded dozens of Coptic Christians in Egypt , that annihilated entire towns and forced thousands of Kurdish women into sexual slavery - THE LIST GOES ON AND ON , and will continue until all the worlds infidels either convert or die. _5)) But as ‘genius’ John Mearsheimer says, let’s blame EVERYTHING on Israel

Protest rallies at university campuses in the US, Canada, Britain, and Australia against what (let there be no mistake about this) are the undeniably disproportionate responses by the Israeli Defense Forces [IDF] upon Gaza, for the heinous barbarism Hamas militia forces initiated on October 7, reached fever pitch in the last two weeks of April, and into May. However, it is also an undeniable reality that, Hamas’ strategists, were 101% certain Israel’s rejoinder to what its militia initially inflicted upon unarmed Israelis on October 7, would be met with the ferocious responses, which have transpired. Therefore, the only conclusion to draw is that, Hamas’ military strategists willfully launched that gruesome attack on October 7, knowing full well Israel would respond ferociously. Essentially, Hamas was fully prepared to inevitably sacrifice the lives of many thousands of Gazans, in order for it to win the PR war. And there are two strands to contend with here. First, they knew it was absolutely certain that the millions of Muslims currently residing in Western countries (which accrues to be in the vicinity of 30 million people) would culminate with them rallying en masse to stage pro-Palestinian, and anti-Western protests. The second trait of its plan, was with banking upon gaining the sympathy of leftoid liberals in Western spheres: by way of manipulating their mindsets with seeing an unending parade of suffering in Gaza. Well, the latter facet has certainly come to fruition, and prevails with leftist-leaning education federations in Western nations calling for ‘solidarity with Palestine’, and the ‘eradication of Israel, and its inhabitants’. However, these same entities haven’t summarily condemned the extreme barbarism that Hamas perpetrated on October 7, with callously massacring at least 1200 unarmed people, and raping numerous women.

too bad he is mixing facts with fake.

Yes, the Obama Administration is the best friend terrorists ever had, in his third term as President.

It's one of those nuances that typically get lost due to the shortness of the format. I would argue that the Biden administration preferentially want compliance in the region, if this isn't achievable a acceptable peace also would do. What's acceptable is a whole other can of worms.

The US has toppled democratically elected governments in favor of authoritarians that are pro-west many times before

Yes, peace I'm not sure. I've always heard it said that colonial occupiers require constant division and chaos. I mean if they all just made friends over there then there wouldn't be desperate allies willing to work with you, support your interests. Not to mention the profits of military industry.

@@stefanscally4449 I would highly recommend George Friedman's non-fiction book on the USA titled "The Next 100 Years: A Forecast for the 21st Century". Essentially he agrees with you with respect to division and chaos. His main thesis is that the US has adopted a policy of knocking down rising powers in order to keep its own position. It was published in 2009 so I think what he got wrong is that in recent years the USA has not just maintained its position of power but gone backwards due to its foreign and domestic policy failures. A great read though.

@@nedalhubhub1851well his ethnic cleansing argument is a bit weak. Either the Israelis are incredibly bad at it or it’s not entirely their aim.

It was clear to anyone who knows the region that the surrounding countries would not allow for additional significant numbers of Palestinian refugees coming in. I‘d rather argue that the Israeli government is not entirely sure what to do currently. Also, as a realist, I am not sure he knows all too much about the specificities of the Israeli body politic.

"Complete bullshit". Me.

There is no apartheid in Israel, and it minimizes the experience of the South African black community. That was said within the last year, by Gayton McKenzie, who is a minister IN THE SOUTH AFRICAN GOVERNMENT. And he is black, btw. I think he would know better than John Mearsheimer.

Well said!! Much of the world believed this "friendship" with Israel, at the expense of the rest of the Middle East, was real. Instead it was professed by a few individuals in the leadership of the US and Israel and was compounded by Israel's talented press corps and a whole lot of money exchanging hands. Give me one thing Israel did for our country that resulted in something of benefit to an American citizen.... The wealth of oil laying below the landscape in the Middle East if paired with a productive relationship with any of a number of Arab countries would benefit the US. At least an Arab nation will pay for our technology and manufactured goods.

You don't understand Islam and how the Muslim Brotherhood has grown in influence. Israel has nothing to do with their agenda. The Arab world has changed since Israel was established. Even without Israel tbe US would be the enemy of the Muslim world, both Sunni and Shia because the Muslim Brotherhood has a global ambition.

Lol he’s their lawyer

He's a propagandist. He speaks and dresses well, but he has no substance. You can't argue that Arabs have no rights in Israel, without citing discriminatory laws which deprive Arabs of rights. He didn't even identify which rights are being deprived, he just said they have no rights. And you can't argue Israel wants to ethnically cleanse Arabs without evidence. Where is a law or policy that demonstrates intent to ethnically cleanse? No evidence. He only preaches sensationalism and hyperbole. He made conclusory statements, relied on and emotionally charged terms and phrases that are not evidence-based, and argued using tautologies and circular reasoning. He employed highly sophistic rhetoric. I can see how he tricks many people.

From a Israeli perspective that’s business as usual. There are no relevant deaths from their point of view. He is not ignorant, he just describes how Israelis think. Please dont shoot the messenger.

That's not good for the narrative. Remember the narrative is more important than the facts. Please don't complicated the narrative, especially if it has been widely accepted.

True

@Impossibleshadow The interviewer didn't ask him what Israelis think, and he didn't say, "This is what Israelis think." He's giving his own opinion based on what some other guy he mentioned said. Mearsheimer is not ignorant, but he is ignoring the occupation dynamic, which has never gone poof or become a summer day the way he is suggesting. A person that puts an animal in a cage (animal is a word some Israelis use to describe Palestinians) and then continuously uses a stick to instigate and enrage the animal by poking and teasing it and then be surprised when that animal gets a chance to bite him. Same thing with Gaza. As I said, the brutal occupation has never ended. Nobody should ever be surprised by that or discount it. And who controls that dynamic? Israel.

he's being diplomatic because he speaks in elite terminology. They believe their own "narratives" despite knowing they are fiction aimed at the public

The American people aren't really fools,,they are just misinformed fools

Because that's what they are good at, don't be surprised.

At least Biden is taking baby steps on stopping it. I just wonder if Donald Trump would do the same thing. He did take a swipe at Bibi the day after Hamas attack.

Because is runned by mobster like Oligarcs of big corps (the true rulers of america since the politicians are mere puppets in a pay role) Those Oligarcs want as much as world riches they can lay their hands on and Israel acts as a huge military base right in the heart of a very strategic region of the world to control the flow of not only oil but also all goods that go through the also highly strategic Suez canal. And that's also why socialism is a taboo word in america. Can you imagine a system where the super rich can't stay super rich at the expenses of the common people? Welll they sure can't
