More Evidence of the Rot in America
I was on “The Deep Dive” with Danny Davis on 25 July 2024. We talked at length about the extent to which the discourse on Ukraine among US leaders and in the mainstream media is divorced from what is actually happening in the war. We also discussed the disgraceful presence of Benjamin Netanyahu addressing Congress the day before. One could argue that the discourse regarding Israel and Gaza is even further detached from reality. Simply put, the level of dishonesty among US elites about both Israel and Ukraine is stunning and a sure sign of a society that is in deep trouble.
How many more years does Professor Mearsheimer have to continue to state backable facts and accurate predicting consequences Ukraine before maybe people in power will listen to his perspective? Thank you for continuing to educate me and others out there in accurate foreign policy analysis
Well, since the coup in Ukraine in 2014 fostered by the US I have always had the same perspective on this issue as expressed by Dr. Mearsheimer. However the genocide being implemented in Gaza by Israel is foremost on my mind these days, and Netanyahu's visit yesterday and his self righteous lying applauded by those the American people elected into office was sickening. Kamala Harris wasn't present, true, but when she met him afterwards although she voiced her concerns, she pretty much swore she would always be there for Israel. I was not impressed that some democrats bowed out, and mostly those that did are defined by their party as very liberal like Sanders, Warren, Alexandria Ocasio-Corteztrust who play their role well, but too often cave to their parties demands in the end. Pelosi said on Wednesday she will not be attending the address and instead “will join a Members meeting with Israeli citizens whose families have suffered in the wake of the October 7th Hamas terror attack and kidnappings." Wow, what spunk that old broad has. ” The best and the only one I will give credit to is Rashida Tlaib and her sign who told it like it is.
