The tragedy of John Mearsheimer

How the American realist became the world’s most hated thinker.

I appreciate the smear campaign you have attempted. One mistake in the timing doesn't negate his years of wisdom.

No one had understood the extent to which Ukraine had been armed and prepared for war. Likewise, at the time, no one had heard that call Putin made to Macron hours before the invasion protesting the western trashing of the Minsk agreements. At the time, no one really understood how desperate western politicians have been getting.

But he has been loudest voice saying the invasion would eventually happen. . . he only got the time and day wrong.

Mearsheimer "predictions" are usually wrong - and on most important issues.

He was wrong on Russian invasion
He was wrong on nuclear Germany
He was wrong on post-Soviet Europe
He was wrong on China's "Peaceful Rise"

The excuses come later by those fed by his fantasies.

First sentence in the piece;

"By the standards that govern contemporary international politics, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is an unmistakable unilateral act of aggression."


. . . so, just like Hamas' attack on Israel, and Israel/US's attack on Iran?

He is not just chickening out - but creates intentionally one mess after the other - to enrich himself and his gang - then runs away to rebound the Dow Jones, and expects the Gulf-states and Europe to handle his and the US created mess in Ukraine and the Persian Gulf or anywhere else.

I don't see the Hamas attack and the US/Israeli attack, being on the same page.

The Hamas attack was the foreseeable counteraction onto Israels oppressive and illegal actions towards Palestinians.
Whilst the US attack onto Iran is solely about OIL - and Israels participation is in view of their "Greater Israel"

Putin's attack was clearly a unilateral act of aggression - which "can" be debated as preemptive in view of Ukraine's previous "nationalistic" aggression towards Russian-Ukrainians and Crimean's, and further agitated via NATO's strategic/territorial ambitions towards Russia.

[Zincwarrior]

The U.S. Military will answer it.

No. Trump is running like a little *****. He believed Israel's bullshit that this would be over in three days. He killed Americans for his stupidity.

So desperate you turn into pretzel.

Should I untangle the pipe dreams of your "prophet"?

That's hilarious.

Before I decide to watch any video, I read the first dozen or so comments to see if what is in the video is of any value.

Thank you so much for posting this moron.

The comments were golden.

. . . and less than a thousand views while the video has been up two months?

So after complete obliteration of Iran and its military capabilities, USA and Israel have achieved the following:

1. Iran’s regime is still in place and is more hardline than it ever was before
2. Iran is selling more oil and at $100
3. Oil sanctions are no longer effective
4. Middle Eastern economies have been devastated and oil infrastructure damaged with medium term consequences
5. Israel is being pounded from three directions with considerable damage that has been suppressed by force
6. U.S. navy has run away from the Persian Gulf
7. Oil prices doubled.
8. Iran now controls 20% of world oil flows which may increase to 30% if Iran decides to close shipping in the Red Sea. (through Houthis)
9. Strait of Hormuz will remain under Iran’s control for foreseeable future.
10. Iran is likely to get out of NPT and develop nuclear weapons.
11. Trump has done so well in the war that he is likely to lose midterms.
12. Netanyahu who used to shamelessly roam around has been mostly in hiding
13. U.S. bases in the Gulf have been obliterated and Iran says U.S. must leave Middle East now
14. The world is likely to experience inflation and low economic growth in the next year.
15. The entire world opinion has changed in favor of Iran.
16. NATO and European allies have refused to participate in the war.

Thank you for your attention to the matter.

Someday, there might be a glimmer of hope that shitty croc will support his claims.

Alas, obviously, today is not that day.
