A 77 year wrong that must be righted. Palestinians should not be paying the price for what Germany did and being holocausted for it.

The same Balfour who wrote the Balfour statement (letter) was the Balfour behind the “Legal Aliens Act” of 1905. Had no right to give Palestine away.

Gabriele Ritschard's avatar

As the saying goes: „from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free“.

A free Palestine for EVERYBODY, Jews and Muslims and Christians alike, with equal rights for everybody and a full right to return for the Palestinians.

I think without this we will never see peace in the region. 🙏🏼

Which is what the first Palestinian national Congress in 1919 called for.

Derek, Just out of curiousity how would you solve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? What would you suggest be done with the Israelis living there now?

DEREK HANDS's avatar

Quote obviously: One man one vote equal rights for all. Frankly none of you genocidal crazies belong on their land but even the first Palestinian national Congress back in 1919 sought that. Look how many lives have been lost and upturned for an insane unsustainable European fascist settler colonialist ideology since. Nazism 2.0

You should tell it to your preacher as you consume cannibal Christ on the wrong Sabbath that jesus's dad was wrong in promising Israel as the eternal Homeland to his chosen people reflected by the matriarchs and patriarchs being buried there in the Torah portion showing Abraham purchasing the plot where they were buried as perpetual proof of ownership because the god of Israel knew how wretched greedy regressive and divisive that the crucifixionists would be that they would deny the Jewish people their inheritance

Really man. This is serious discussion. Prof Mearsheimer is an erudit, someone who studied those questions for decades and was an active and respected voice in more international questions that you could ever dream of.

Committed the Holocaust and Palestinians are being Holocausted for it now and their land stolen

Luke Lea's avatar

Without necessarily disagreeing with anything Prof. Mearsheimer says in his opening statement, he seems unaware of the critical role played by British, French, and Russian statesmen during WWI in getting the Zionist movement off the ground, which they did for their own cynical reasons of state:

First, they wanted to secure the support of world Jewry, especially American Jewry, in the hopes that this would help bring the United States into the war on their side.

Second, they wanted to direct the flood of Jewish emigrants pouring out of Eastern Europe away from their borders (Balfour himself was quite open about this, and certainly neither the Russians nor the French disagreed).

And third, which applies to the British cabinet only, it wished to establish a military presence in Palestine in order to guard the approaches to the Suez Canal, Britains link to India (which explains why it was British military forces that actually conquered Palestine, paving the way to the Balfour declaration).

My reference here is a book, The Question of Palestine 1914-1918 by Israeli historian Isaiah Friedman, based on his reading of the since declassified diplomatic correspondence in the British Foreign Office.

Furthermore--and this is crucial to the current situation--the diplomats involved in the decision to support the Zionists cause were perfectly aware of the ethnic conflict that was bound to result with the approximately 400,000 Arabs who were already living in Palestine, but they went ahead and supported it anyway.

The bottom line here is that it is Europe, and the West more generally (since eventually Woodrow Wilson also came on board, to say nothing of all the Western powers in the aftermath of the Holocaust) that is ultimately responsible for causing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, including the current war in Gaza. If we want to find someone to blame, we should look in the mirror.

As for what can be done at this late to resolve this otherwise irresolvable conflict, there is only one possibility. We must agree to accept, as a matter of right, unlimited Palestinian immigration into the West (primarily America because we have the room) as the only way to reduce the demographic pressure that stands in the way of a final agreement, and we (meaning Europe primarily) must be willing to induce their voluntary movement by means of an ongoing program of financial benefits (call it blood money) in the form of cash assistance, wage subsidies, free health, educational, and old-age benefits, etc., also as a matter of right.

Laugh if you must, but there is literally no other answer. It is something we owe not only to the Palestinian people, but to Israel, to ourselves, and to the whole rest of the world.

This is real realism, Prof. Mearsheimer.

DEREK HANDS's avatar

They didn’t want the European Jews in their countries so forced them on Palestinians. Balfour’s “aliens act” of 1905 and U.S. “immigration law” of 1924.

Why should the West take them in when the 57 Islamic states have plenty of room and need for additional labor and fellow travelers on the jihadi path?

Luke Lea's avatar

The 57 Islamic states are all made up of various tribal and clan-based groups. The Arab "nations" don't identify with the Palestinian people as fellow Arabs so much as just another tribal group with no place of their own. In other words, there is virtually zero political solidarity in that part of the world. This also explains the poor battlefield performance of the Arab armies in 1947, 1967, and 1972 if I am not mistaken.

America's unwavering support for the state of Israel may not be in the US national interest narrowly construed, but it is most certainly in the interest of Western civilization broadly construed, given the central role played by the Jewish people in the history of our culture and civilization. The Hebraic concept of a God who is just, for example, is far and away the most influential idea in the intellectual history of the West, being the ultimate source of those cultural ideals of freedom, justice, and human equality that undergird our liberal institutions.

Mearsheimer's version of "realism" simply does not care about these larger cultural and civilizational issues, even though a majority of the American people certainly do, American protestants above all.

The bottom line here, at least for people like me, is that for the state of Israel to cease to exist as a national home for the Jewish people is simply unthinkable.

The naaaqbaaah should be read fully by those who cite it as historicity🙄

It's the angry disappointed Arabs lament at seven Arab armies being beaten in their mission to soak the land of Palestine with the blood of Jews, beaten by a army of teenage Holocaust survivors and elderly refugees with one rifle for every three soldiers.

Typical crucifixionists are still holding on to their replacement theology stating that God had broken his promise to his chosen people and cannot absorb the reality of the miracles involved in 1948 and full territorial restoration and integrity of the biblical borders of Israel in 1967 thus repudiating the sickness of replacement theology.

Cringey crusading crucifixionist cunts can't let go even though the Vatican did as reality encroached on their fantastical vision of a Christendom, yet that same Christendom was defeated by islamists in the last failed crusade and the islamists had made it to the gates of Vienna before The barbarians were beat off by a Polish general, divisive Euro trash cunts couldn't muster the forces to defend Vienna, most likely they were lamenting and bitching about their failed Messiah and why the Jews won't buy into the bullshit of crucifixionism and the failed Messiah.

It is with certainty that I can point to the god of Israel paying back Europe for burning their Jews by replacing the goodness of Judaism with Justice for All with Injustice for All and Islam creating eurabia

May the skate park you've constructed between your ears for the 80 generations of the chosen people who emanate from the eternal Homeland given to them by the god of Israel be fully populated for another 80 generations of the fifth happiest nation in the world, grinding away all day everyday forever more 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱

Remember when you're so called replacement theology got curb stomped when the Jews returned to the land as Jewish prophecy promised yet nothing Jesus ever promised came true 🐖💨

You sound like a useless tool, an Islamic deflectionist, whining about Jews as Islam conquers the world just like your brethren did at the gates of Vienna as The barbarians gathered, the first American war was against the Barbary pirates who were raiding entire European villages to enslave them and add the women to the Islamic slave harems all while useless bitches bitched about Jews luckily a pollock came and saved Europe from Islamic conquest, how's Rotherham working out for your British Brothers 1200 victims the British police overlooked it because they would be called racists for pointing out that the barbarians kept perpetuating crimes against the Christians of England all while you bitches bitched about Jews Brigitte Gabriel @ACTBrigitte Subscribe Lebanon was the only Christian-majority nation in the Middle East. It's where I was born. We prided ourselves on inclusivity. Always welcoming Arab Muslim refugees from all over the Middle East. We had the best economy despite having no natural oil. The best universities. They called Beirut the "Paris of the Middle East" and the Mountains of Lebanon was a tourist destination. My early childhood was idyllic, my father was a prosperous businessman in town and my mother was at home with me, an only child. Slowly, the Arab Muslims began to become the majority in Lebanon and our rights began to wither away. Soon, we would find ourselves unable to leave our small Christian town without fear of being stopped and killed by Arabs. In Lebanon your religion is on your government issued ID. As the war intensified and the radical Islamists made their way south, my home was hit by an errant rocket and my life was forever changed. We spent the next almost decade in a bomb shelter, scraping together pennies and eating dandelions and roots just to survive. If it was not for Israel coming in and surrounding our town, I do not know If I would be here today. Lebanon is now a country 100% controlled and run by Hezbollah. I lost my country of birth. I thank God every single day I was able to immigrate to America and live out the dream that BILLIONS of people only dream of having. Now here in America, my adopted country that I have come to love so much, I see the same threats and warning signs happening now that took place in Lebanon when I was a child. This is my warning to you, America, reverse course now while you still can. It's not too late to save our freedom and preserve it for the next generation.

Alan, aka DudeInMinnetonka's avatar

As a Jew you should know better than to show respect to the deranged cunts coming at the Jews.

Shame and dishonor the shameful and dishonorable crucifixionist denying jesus's dad's commandments as reflected in the Quran that Israel is the Homeland for the Jews in perpetuity forever more without any escape clauses for replacement theology as the so-called Catholics had to rewrite their doctrine after 1948 and 1967 gave them a theological concussion and curb stomping as prophecy came true as the Torah promised as the word of God.

Cringey crusading crucifixionists talk about the broken covenant often as they cite the one true God of Israel as the promise keeper, the conundrums and confusions are continuing and ongoing forever more with the ultimate manifestation of cannibal Christ on the wrong Sabbath and constructing a parallel reality where a second chance is given to a failed Messiah who didn't accomplish what he was supposed to accomplish on his first visit.

In addition to overlooking all the other aspects of Messiah that Judaism contained, the concept of Messiah did not exist but was appropriated from judaism, misinterpreted reframed lied about and spewed to the world as truth despite the implausibility improbability errors in lineage, a virgin being married yet being knocked up by God while ignoring the Pantera Factor...

There are 31,000 variations in jezeusian delusions from talking in tongues to handling snakes, the disagreeable crucifixionists need a world conference on Christian unity, that would be a hoot.

Seventh-Day Adventists pointing to correct Sabbath observance versus Mormons with their nifty temple, ritual undergarments and a genuine Mormon massacre to give Christian genocide authenticity, I point to the Mormons as peak pinnacle Christianity and best of all they consider other crucifixionists to be gentiles.

Meanwhile despite gentile guile all the while he just happiest nation of Israel is thriving with great style, achieving more militarily in all of NATO in 60 years.

The colonial representatives in the world such as Britain and America both were adamant against the Jews declaring nationhood therefore thus the colonialist argument is smashed on the rocks.

from the San Remo agreement forward the territorial integrity of Israel has not changed a bit and when circumstances allowed territorial retreat was accepted for a piece of paper from Egypt in giving up oil Independence space for the nation to grow, towns that had been built and grown by Jews.

Nothing but Arab intransigence can be cited as reasons for their not being a so-called Palestinian state.

Mirrheimer is a blow hard, uncertain what he's gotten right about anything but his fixation and derangement about Israel and the Jews and his never correct predictions continue onward supported by goitardia.

The reason it's called the crucifixion is if it was real it would be called the crucifact 🙄🥂🐖💨

The Arab refugee population has grown tenfold since they started the war in 48 instead of starting a state.

The Arab population in Gaza is up 2% since October 6th when 20,000 of them came into work at the same communities that 6,000 of them attacked on the 7th.

Cry for your jihadis sister, they're being treated far more mercifully than deserved and there are no innocent Arabs in Gaza and Jesus is a false Messiah, the reason it's called the crucifixion is if it was real it would be called the crucifact and what in the world was Jesus doing in the garden with the naked boy at 4:00 a.m.?

The best part of waking up is knowing that so many Jew deranged cunts like you have installed skate parks between their ears for the 80 generations of the eternal Nation to grind away all day everyday rent free.

Look up the religion of peace.com to see how many conflicts Islam facilitates across the planet thousands of attacks a month from the belligerent war makers of the 7th centuries, their book states that Israel is for the Jews and many people say that Allah is punishing the Arabs repeatedly through humiliating defeats such as 1948 when seven Arab armies announced that they were going to soak the ground of Palestine with the blood of the Jews.

They were defeated by poorly trained ill equipped Holocaust survivors with one rifle for every three soldiers thus illustrating that the god of Israel is eternal

John Mearsheimer distorts history to present a coherent but biased narrative of a Zionist/Israeli expulsion of Palestinians from their land. He relies on selective interpretations that legitimize the Palestinian narrative while delegitimizing the Israeli one, omitting facts that contradict his storyline.

For example: If the Zionists were truly expansionists seeking a “Greater Israel,” why did Israel not conquer the West Bank in 1948, when it could have? At the time, David Ben-Gurion was urged by many Israeli leaders to seize the territory, with warnings that failure to do so would be a missed opportunity Israel would regret for years.

From Mearsheimer’s lofty, “60,000-foot” perspective, why did Jews end up in Israel when most wanted to go to the United States or Canada? Did he mention immigration quotas—or the reality that, after 1925, Jews literally had nowhere else to go?

How was the Jewish state created? The British pushed through the UN plan for a two-state solution in Palestine, leading to Israel’s declaration of independence in May 1948. But what happened to the Palestinian state? Jordanians, Syrians, and Egyptians had their own territorial ambitions: Jordan controlled the West Bank until 1967, and Egypt controlled Gaza.

Who started the 1948 war? The “Green Line” borders emerged because Arab states attacked the newly founded State of Israel, during which Israel gained control over more territory. And while Israel expelled roughly 750,000 Palestinians, Arab states expelled a comparable number of Jews from their own territories.

The second major turning point was the 1967 war. Mearsheimer treats it as if it “just happened,” but what about the twenty years between 1948 and 1967? Jordan and Egypt had ample time to create a Palestinian state—why didn’t they?

Fast-forward to October 7. According to Mearsheimer, the key story is not Hamas’s attack on Israel, but the “opportunity” it allegedly gave Israel to cleanse Palestinians. If that were the true motivation, why was no such transfer attempted on October 6, or October 5?

When historians and political scientists build biased narratives, they neglect their most essential duty: to guard the truth and preserve an accurate memory of events. They also risk memorializing only one side’s suffering, which entrenches division, blocks reconciliation, and prevents the selective “forgetting” that can be necessary for peace. As Ernest Renan observed: “Forgetting…is a crucial factor in the creation of nations; thus, the progress of historical studies is often a danger for national identity. The essence of a nation is that all individuals have many things in common, and that they have forgotten many things…”

Alan, aka DudeInMinnetonka's avatar

You seem detached from reality wherefore two millenniums cringey crucifixionists have practiced ritual cannibalism through theophagy as a representation towards trinitarian monotheism with interspersed wars in between between churches/nations.

Replacement theology was manifest by the corrupt churches to usurp the blessings that the god of Israel bestowed upon his chosen people. 1948 and 1967 curb stomped that silly idea but the 31,000 derivatives of crucifixionism disagree but the pope had to rewrite some of his hateful doctrine to adjust for the curb stomping that the god of Israel served to the Edomite nations.

Crucifixionists celebrate the death of their failed Messiah with a day called Good Friday and share the winter solstice Resurrection virgin birth concept with other worldwide false religions with zero awareness that parameters for the prerequisites of achieving Messiah were Jewish specific and demanded verifiable results. Goitardia shrugged those off and said this dude will do, we'll put this Jew on a stick on our wall and call him a solution therefore thus Christianity / Rome / tax collection and legitimacy, pagans were more difficult to manage then compliant crucifixionists.

Yet they acted like barbarians that room was yet fought.

Peak Christianity is achieved by the Mormons with the nifty Temple tidy uniforms ritual undergarments and the Mormon massacre to qualify as a genuine genocidal Christian.

elli lieberman's avatar

And let's not forget that citing Jabotinsky is convenient because it reinforces your narrative. You omit other perspectives—such as the liberal Zionist view—which envisioned a very different goal for Jews in the land. Take Moses Hess in Rome and Jerusalem, for example: he argued for the creation of a Jewish state after the anticipated downfall of the Ottoman Empire, alongside the reestablishment of Arab states in Egypt and Syria. Writing before any organized Arab national movement had emerged, Hess advanced a universalistic conception of nationalism—one that supported both Jewish and Arab national independence.
