John Mearsheimer - Changes in the Israel Lobby
Full speech given by John Mearsheimer (University of Chicago professor and co-author of "Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy") discussing how the lobby has changed since the original publication of the book he co-authored with Stephen Walt and the future of the lobby under the new administration at the "Israel Lobby and American Policy" conference on March 24th, 2017 at the National Press Club.

Every American needs to watch this. John Mearsheimer's speech was remarkably predictive of the events that unfolded in Ukraine and Israel in 2023.

Few people get this sort of confirmation that their theories were spot on all along. He nailed both the Ukraine and Israel situations 100 %. Imagine being an American politician and not having this guy as an advisor. I’d pay him good money.
John Mearsheimer's predictions are coming true in Ukraine as well as in Israel!
Now, how brave this man is.
One of a few who have the courage to tell the truth. Excellent.

I do not believe how bad this abuse of the Palestinians really is. The so-called Civilized World and that includes the United Nation's stands by idle while Israel heaps military assaults upon a defenseless people. We can no longer claim to be a national community that is civilized. We are Savages as we fail to protect the Palestinians. Meanwhile the so-called Land of the Free threatens to protect Israel while it is murdering Palestinians. This is insane. We have crossed the line and have entered territory in 1984 Literature

Great man with great talk about truth of our present time
During the British colonization of Kenya, the rebels were labeled terrorists, savages, baby killers. They did conduct raids in which even children were killed against the British and their allies. The language was meant to erase distinctions between combatant and non-combatant and allowed the British to inflict terrible collective punishment. Same with the Algerians fighting France and its settlers. The ANC as well, to some extent. Hamas isn't ISIS or AQ. They don't live and die and kill for the thrill of it or in hope of a messianic vision. From Gaza's rooftops they can see the lands their parents and grandparents were marched at gunpoint out of, now populated by citizens of a state that has imprisoned them in an open-air concentration camp where hopw does not exist. Their political "rivals" are a comprador government which cracks Palestinian heads open if they dare protest against apartheid and occupation, and disarmed them so they can't defend their land or honor. They're a classic people's militia with a Jihadist rather than a Maoist spin, and their martrydom is as "irrational" as that of the Vietcong.
Amazing presentation!
Truthful man, thanks to speak up
One word - Prophetic!
he is absolutely right about contempt for israel as protests in favor of palestine even in western countries particularly across europe are increasingly growing...
I note the pro Israel add that was run before this video. Good effort Levhaolam but I don’t think so. Support BDS !!!
JM remains a Rockstar of geopolitics !
very eloquent, when more and more Americans understand this dynamic in Israel-American relationship, they will revolt against this unfavorable relationship to Americans and American interests.
Well made report, I respect and admire Mr. Mearsheimer for his openness about Israeli - Palestinian conflic and I think he is very right in what he said.
It’s just mind boggling how disconnected people are from reality. We’re so subservient to government and media.

His predictions on the Russian-Ukraine war are also realized. There's one more big prediction about "China cannot rise peacefully", we see how that goes.

A great and true American.
At last, we are witnessing a slight awakening within the Senate and Congress regarding the cessation of funding for the Israeli genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. However, they now realize the influence of constituents and the power of the vote, as they risk losing their seats. They must decide between serving AIPAC and Israel or serving Americans and America. They must cease squandering our taxpayers' money and prioritize America over Israel.
Your words are very relevant in these days!

I really appreciate you posting this video. I am partial to both Chomsky and Mearsheimer and honestly I left feeling like Chomsky was in fact being a tad naive regarding his criticism. He spends the final 3 minutes of the video discussing how incredibly absurdly tight the israeli intelligence, defense industry and lobby are with d.c. politicians. I think he has some points that are strong, primarily that the lobby could be crushed if so desired. thanks for posting.

Why was the Iraq war illegal? The invasion of Iraq was neither in self-defense against armed attack nor sanctioned by UN Security Council resolution authorizing the use of force by member states and thus constituted the crime of war of aggression, according to the International Commission of Jurists (ICJ) in Geneva.
