On 17 December 2024, I appeared on the podcast “Makdisi Street,” where I spoke with the Makdisi brothers — Saree, Karim and Ussama — about how the Israel lobby works to generate unconditional US support for Israel — even when it is executing a genocide in Gaza.
We appreciate you !! Hundreds of Palestinians who don’t go on these sites know and follow you. We share and forward your talks and interviews. As Palestinian Christians we get depressed about how the world treats us, can’t thank you enough about how your words of truth make us feel. Among many emotions- to express kindness and empathy towards us is like getting a virtual hug.
Yes, many, many people greatly appreciate Professor Mearsheimer. And thank you for telling us many Palestinians do as well. This could not be more important.
The US with its lack of moral clarity is the director, and always has been...
"...we as humanity and a people must talk about it, otherwise the same psychopaths, mistakes, and atrocities continue again, and again, and again, and again… ad infinitum." - Guilt, Repentance, & Change
Let me ask, do you think Netanyahu's assault on Gaza after the Oct 7th attack was to primarily to go after Hamas, or do you think the underlying motive was to implement a genocide, using the attack as a pretext to do so? It seems Israel was rather dismissive of Hamas's plans that they were aware of a year before the attack, and ignored Egypt's warnings given only days before, as well as ignoring the warnings of those who monitored Gaza and reported suspicious behavior by Hamas. To me it seems from the beginning genocide was on their mind. Also worth mentioning is that no one was around to stop them from hitting some 20 towns, that is giving them a pretty free hand.
It's documented and reported that Israel provided money and weapons... it was a plan to instigate. Zionists have a long track record (125 years) of lying, manipulation, and obfuscation. Remember they helped the US and UK create ISIL/ISIS (the Commander for ISIS in Libya was captured and turned out to by a Mossad agent). It's a plan for genocide and control.
You're exactly correct, Sean. Note how the U.S. hid behind Israel when Syria fell. They supplied the bombs and weapons for 900+ targets hit in Syria by Israel. The number's not a typing mistake: 900+ targets bombed by Israel in Syria. USCENTCOM conducted bombing on one day.
The master puppeteer is the U.S. They want to hand over Syria to a sanitized "terrorist" in the region but only when no stores of weapons or munitions can fall into their hands. IOW, a neutered "terrorist." The reason they want a "terrorist" is because they need an individual who reflects the region and people so that local residents will anoint and follow his direction, which, of course, is set by the U.S.
The U.S. IS the director. We tend to focus on Israel because of their outrageous, antihuman conduct in Gaza, but the U.S.' moral depravity is well documented and ALLOWS this extermination. My substack isn't monetized. I write what I want when I want. My latest tells exactly the story that the U.S. instigates these adventures and denotes our moral depravity. Matt Livelsberger, the LV Bomber, provides my direction in the article which, strangely, appears to have overlaps with your linked article. If you care to read: https://sunlotus17.substack.com/p/a-reflection-on-matt-livelsberger
How about putting the videos on a non-you tube channel so people can watch them without going through the fake and devious trap of signing in to prove your not a bot (actually meaning you tube is collecting data on you - has nothing to do with them wanting to make sure you are not a bot).
It’s truly audacious for any person to make such random statements about when this conflict began.
For anyone who has read the history of this conflict back to its very beginnings you know would have learned that the Palestinians are also semantic people as were all the tribes of the Cannans.
The term anti-Semitic (or anti-Semitism) was first popularized in 1879 by Wilhelm Marr, a German journalist and political agitator.
The Old Testament (specifically Exodus, Dueteronomy Joshua and Leviticus) clearly describe how this entire conflict started when exiled Jews were told by GOD to invade all the other tribes in the land (Canaan’s) and claim the land as their own.
Netanyahu literally sees himself as Mose’s Joshua!. He is following along the Old Testament instructions from God to destroy and rid the Cannans of all others and take its land.
“The Israelites’ continued possession of the land depends on their faithfulness to God’s commandments” (Deuteronomy 4:25-31).
It describes the total destruction of its Inhabitants:
Deuteronomy 20:16-18: “Completely destroy them… as the Lord your God has commanded you.”
Joshua 10-11: Accounts of the conquest describe the extermination of entire cities.
So, as you can see, this DID NOT start on October 6th.
Thank you for this informative discussion. The ICC, Amnesty International and everyone of conscience at last agrees this is genocide backed by the U.S. and allies but what wasn't mentioned is that the U.K. is also actively complicit (listen to George Galloway's Mother of All Talk Shows). It's obvious that things need to change and that where there is injustice resistance will continue. Many thousands of innocent civilians have already been maimed, killed, imprisoned and tortured by Israel's irrational response to October 7th, but the situation is dire and people, especially children, can't wait and are suffering and dying with no access to their basic needs like medical care, food, water and shelter! Even doctors journalists have been mercilessly killed. Most hospitals have now been destroyed so many children are now dying from hypothermia and hunger as well as their wounds. How many more need to suffer and die before enough people will stand up and say this inhumanity needs to stop now and what can be done about a complicit and corrupt media owned and controlled by Zionists.
I agree with everything you wrote, except characterizing Israel's response as 'irrational".
The response was preplanned and cynical. It deliberately lied about systematic rape and murder of infants to draw public outrage at these purported bestial crimes, as cover for their intended quantum leap in the Palestine extirpation plan.
Yes you're right: preplanned and cynical as well as evil, yet their word was never questioned or challenged by the media. There's a dire shortage of independent journalists of integrity (like the late John Pilger) but even the few who report the truth don't get their voices heard even by the BBC.
Thank you Prof Mearsheimer. Your integrity and clarity give us some hope, despite what you said about your statements not affecting policies. Here's a frame-by-frame analysis of the videos put out by Isr about 7 Oct 2024
"How Israel Faked the Oct 7th Attack - A Conversation with Matt Guertin "
An Ethiopian dialect-speaking, with an Ethiopian name bearing (it is, of course, an insult to humanity and human decency to mention this butcher's name in the public domain and his counterpart, that weird, paranoid schizophrenic mass murderer cum child mass murderer Irish Catholic Biden the butcher) together, in fact, carried out not a genocide but the mother of all genocides. These butchers were using helicopter gunships, heavy war tanks firing heavy artillery pieces, and fast jets nonstop dropping 1000 mega ton bombs in highly densely populated areas of Palestine, the historical beloved motherland of the Palestinian people, while forcibly occupying Palestine. Today, denigrating humanity and human values, these butchers are rejoicing that - not a single building is standing, including all schools, universities, hospitals and Palestinian people dwelling sending to absolute rubble. If this were not enough to demonstrate their absolute naked shamelessness, these heinous, barbaric, naked European savages aka Jews cult lethal terrorist outfit calling themselves as - the only western barbaric democracy in the heart of the Middle East. Of course, one does not know whether to cry or laugh at these European naked savages (an Ethiopian dialect speaking) ignorant or ignoramus who violated every rule - what to be a human and be a member of the human race!
Give it a rest you stupid antisemite. The only genocide attempted was on October 7. This war could’ve stopped at any time that these homicidal maniacs released the hostages and surrendered.
That kind of knee-jerk nonsense used to be effective at frightening people to avoid telling the truth, but it doesn't work any more: the illusion of Israel's innocence has been stripped away by its ongoing genocide in Gaza. Israel is destined to reap what it has sown, and it won't be pretty.
Hilarious Richard, the worry for the rest of us is you really believe the bullshit that you express, How dare these Palestinians attempt to fight against a brutal 50 year occupation, how dare they want Liberation from their oppressors, these lesser’s
Don’t they get it ?, the Jews are the chosen ones sure doesn’t it say it in the bible
Didn’t God say all this Land is
ours , how dare they Challenge their Colonial masters….!
Occupation? Israel hasn’t been in Gaza since 2005. With the billions of dollars of aid that could’ve been used to build infrastructure and help citizens of Gaza, instead Hamas built a 350 mile fortified tunnel system and smuggled weapons for one purpose: killing Jews. Fuck them. They get everything they deserve. And while it is sad that citizens get caught in the war, their deaths are 100% on Hamas for using them as human shields.
Do you really believe the bullshit you speak. The Jews don't have to occupy Gaza they contain the citizens inside. Where are the human shields and tunnels when there are no hospitals, temples, or universities left? Genocide, war crimes and ethnic clensing. Save your bullshit for your AIPAC friends.
You've been misled by one version of events reported by the legacy media but the truth is quite different. If you're interested in truth please listen to David J. Sorensen of StopWorldControl.com "The Mystery of Israel - Solved" who provides well researched, honest testimony which is naturally hard to accept when you've been fed a lie.
Apologies Kevin a kosin. My reply was meant for Richard Jaffee.
Yes, and another honest broker/journalist is Jeremy Hammond. Hammond is very well versed in the history of Zionist presence in Palestine and their non-compliance with agreements and rulings since the state was nominally established.
It’s truly audacious for any person to make such random statements about when this conflict began.
For anyone who has read the history of this conflict back to its very beginnings you know would have learned that the Palestinians are also semantic people as were all the tribes of the Cannans.

Evangelical so-called Christians especially in the U.S. have been misled by a tampered version of the Old Testament which makes them believe that Jews have a God-given right to land. This twisted version of the Bible was re-written by a charlatan Cyrus I. Scofield called The Scofield Reference Bible. Scofield was financed by a wealthy satanic elite with a Zionist agenda and was published by the Oxford University Press. The evangelicals ignore the New Testament of Jesus Christ and are ardent supporters of Zionism believing the Redeemer will return to Israel. Their support suits Netanyahu and his cabal very well.
The book of Revelations is in the Christian New testament. It is a hateful text preaching that anyone who doesn't "accept" Jesus the Christian God is doomed to die at Armageddon/Second Coming. It has been used as "prophesy" to justify imperialism and bloody wars for ages. John Hagee prophesy writer and founder of Christians United for Israel in US is a constant visitor to and supporter of Netanyahu's extremism. Unfortunately nearly half of Americans have been sucked into this prophesy/ political manipulation, esp in Republican Party. armageddonbooks.com has hosted hundreds of doomsday authors for decades. Read Hagee and others and you'll realise that Greater Israel has been planned for a very long time and they have NO mercy for Palestine.
There are fanatics in ALL faiths and different interpretations of scripture can be used to attempt to justify all kinds of intolerance, punishments and inhumanity that Jesus Christ would certainly have condemned; after all he called out hypocrites (in his time the Pharisees) and threw the money lenders out of the temple. Jesus said "I am the way, the truth and the life and no-one comes to the father except by me". Cyrus Scofield was paid to re-write passages in the bible to mislead people into believing that Jews have a right to land in Israel. The true meaning was different as David J. Sorensen explains in "The Mystery of Israel - Solved".
Thanks for the Bible lesson. I go by international treaties. In 1948, the United Nations voted Israel into the civilized world of nations. The Palestinians were also offered their own state. They refused. They have continued to reject having their own state ever since.
The history of the Cannans is real history, not just a biblical story.
In 1948 the Israelites refused to recognize the borders established by the international community and instead decided to occupy 78 percent of historic Palestinian land. These were not borders per say but armistice lines that have never been recognized by Israel.
This guy is a total airhead following the crazy Democrats theory that the "Victim" is the aggressor. Who threw the first punch? Muslim murderers assassinated innocent Israelis by
committing atrocities. I'm truly sorry for Christians living under the Hamas Terrorist regime because this regime is holding their own citizens hostage while using them as human shields. Mr. Mearsheimer should be ashamed to publish such a pile of malarky defending the Biden and Obama administrations for their enrichment of Iran and its proxies so as to cause this chaos in the Middle East. Funny how everything was peacefully moving along under the Trump policy of the Abraham Accords until along comes President Ding-dong and screws up everything he touches. The reverse Midas touch! A 2-State solution? Really? Is Mr. Mearsheimer also in favor of China usurping Taiwan?
God commanded the children of Israel to destroy the idolators and make His religion supreme. They failed to uphold the religion and themselves became the idolators. That was a nation. Long past.
We appreciate you !! Hundreds of Palestinians who don’t go on these sites know and follow you. We share and forward your talks and interviews.

Nicky, 1000 POUND bombs are destructive enough. There is no such thing as a 1000 mega ton (non nuclear) bomb. 1000 megatons is 1000,000,000 tons.
