They think that they have foreseen everything, think that they have provided against everything; But the FOOLS, the FOOLS, the FOOLS! - they have left us our Fenian (Children) dead, and while Ireland (Palestine) holds these graves, Ireland (Palestine) unfree shall never be at peace."

We've been support ing Israel to our detriment since it's inception. Do you know what the first thing Colin Powell told GW Bush after the terror attacks on 9/11? He told Bush that we need a two-state solution in Palestine. Why? Bc he was well aware of the blowback that our support for Israel causes. And Bin Laden said as much in his letter to America (among other things, ofc.) Now, you don't have to take Bin Laden's word for it as he isn't a reliable narrator, I get that. But Colin Powell was a smart man. He may have lied us into the subsequent invasions, but he knew that the core of hatred for the US stems from a.) our foreign policy in middle east and b.) Our support for Israel, which is WHY we have pursued such foreign policy. Netanyahu, for decades, has wanted the US to take out Iraq. And Syria. And Libya (I think, don't quote me on that one.) And Iran. He testified in front of Congress urging the US to overthrow these countries. And guess what? We've done 3 of the 4 (or tried to in Syria.) Only a matter of time before Israel gets us into WW3 with Iran. They will invade Lebanon after Rafah, imo, and it's off to the races after that, as the entangling alliances in the Middle East join forces to stop Israel and the West

Why would it need to involve itself in so many local and state elections?

I think there is a way to reframe Realist Logic to align with Moral Logic. Realist Logic almost always focuses on subjugation to maintain power, but it doesn’t have to. One could very easily make a case that making lives tangibly substantially better creates stability. Instead of military might, we should be focusing on genuine compassion. We should be helping to rebuild places we’ve destroyed, but also going beyond that to share scientific research, provide sustainable technology solutions, as well as food and medical aid. If we provided these things to the general populace of the world and stopped our oppression the logical outcome is that we would see less aggression against us, achieving the goal of stability. This is also a Realist viewpoint that the establishment just never even considers.

Thank you guys so much! I watched this conversation again in "full for a second time". Dr. Mearsheimer is truly an excellent neutral resource to help us understand the current world affairs. I also want to express my appreciation to you Nora and Ali for the pushback, it gives us listeners/viewers a fuller understanding of the subject. Again thank you! Subscribed!

Great stuff -- look forward to part two 😎

You should call it Israel occupied Palestine, not what called it. As you know, many scholars who call it that way, and you should be doing the same, otherwise you would be making the same mistake who American will do and said what you said.

Excellent segment!!!!

Amazing interview!

Great conversation

Great interview & great questions

If I could only listen to one person on international politics it would definitely be Professor Mearsheimer. Many thanks for hosting him. Glad I found The Electronic Intifada.
