Last week, John Mearsheimer presented an excellent summary on what is going on in Israel since the October 7 Hamas attack. Mearsheimer is one of the most insightful foreign policy scholars working today. Naturally, he is virtually ignored by the Washington establishment which is more concerned with obeying the foreign-policy blob and the Israel Lobby. Mearsheimer, of course, famously worked with Stephen Walt to author the important 2007 book The Israel Lobby which describes the remarkable degree to which Israeli lobbyists are able to influence American foreign policy. Mearsheimer also predicted that Ukraine would regret giving up its nuclear arsenal, and he predicted that the US’s insistence on pushing NATO eastward would lead to increased conflict with Russia.
