John Mearsheimer: The Risk of Israel's COLLAPSE after FAILURE at International Court

   Source: Mas Knitting Jan 22, 2024 No Comments


In this video the discussion revolves around the legal proceedings at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) concerning Israel's actions in Gaza, with a focus on potential charges of genocide.

Mearsheimer emphasizes the corrupting influence of occupation, asserting that treating the occupied population as subhumans is a consequence of political dynamics. The conversation touches on the role of American aid to Israel, attributing it to the influence of the Israel Lobby and questioning its unconditional nature.

The ICJ hearings involve arguments from both Israeli and South African representatives, with the Israelis using the Holocaust argument and attempting to shift the focus to events on October 7th. The human shield argument is presented to deflect blame from the IDF for civilian casualties. The overall sentiment is that Israel is losing the global public relations battle, except in the United States.
