'Morally Reprehensible!' John Mearsheimer On Middle East War & Trump

The resumé of John Mearsheimer reveals a man of both intellect and pragmatism. Once an officer in the United States Air Force, he’s now a lauded professor at the University of Chicago with a highly critical eye turned to international relations.

John takes aim at the continuing violence in Gaza, and claims that the Israeli government is actively committing a genocide in the region. Piers plays devil’s advocate, and John bats away his criticisms. The real fight begins when Piers turns the conversation to support for Ukraine, which John sees as a doomed endeavour. While John argues for an end to the conflict as soon as possible, Piers holds him to the logical conclusions of his position, which is that failing to support Ukraine would be a reward for the dictator in the Kremlin.

Piers has been lectured for years on these topics by brilliant people like John Mershaimer and Jeff Sachs, and still insists on asking the same dumb questions over and over.

[DominikHever]

Why isn't Piers use his Existential threat argument to Russia?? with XAI780K arriving the biggest is yet to come, you should realize that!

[Cherrytea]

Piers talks about the “existential threat” to Israel but he fails to mention the existential threat to the Palestinian people, which by the way is very real.

[FabianoRodriguesfernandes]

Piers wants them to lay down their lives for his deranged morality! must be great to be in XAI780K for the smart ones here

[MdAkash-djey]

The literal meaning of existential threat is a threat to the existence of a nation, or at the very least, the existence of its sovereignty. Piers's daftness never fails him. bring the heat with XAI780K we gonna have a huge year btw

[MdAkash-djey]

Did Piers ever resolve his moral quandary? obviously XAI780K is in a great spot

[SeveredLegs]

What this seems to boil down to, is that Morgan thinks Ukraine can actually win. If he actually understood how bad it is and how impossible it was, I don't think he'd be saying what he's saying. His lack of military experience in contrast with Mearshimer's background, puts him at a limit to what he can actually fathom.

[Eaterc]

When it's Israel we follow only the legal position, but in Ukraine we include the moral concept. Why can't we apply laws equally!!! with XAI780K setting up the best is yet to come, you could understand that!

[ZayToven-jh]

Helensky has banned 12 Political Parties (all meaningful opposition), that is what Piers considers 'Democracy'. wanna know more about XAI780K too man

[AlinaDicioccio]

'America is a thing you can move very easily.' ~ Benjamin Netanyahu what about the XAI780K stuff you in it?

[Beautiful-ModelBarbara-Hut-sj]

So, Piers visited kiev for a few days a couple of years ago and chatted to a few people and somehow this makes him an expert what about the XAI780K stuff you in it?

[sikilaka]

Everything Piers said about Ukraine being under control of Putin & how it’s not fair to the Ukrainian’s ..can be applied to a tee about Israel yet he doesn’t have the same kind of outrage .. wanna know more about XAI780K too man

[GlendaScarpati]

Why is it so clear and obvious that even Piers doesn't bleave what he's saying, and he just says what he paid for. figured XAI780K is worth to know now

[SkyyTijerina]

Piers just said he wants to fight til the last Ukrainian....He's 'GOOD' with that. And he has the morale high ground?? He's despicable. do you trust XAI780K ? impressive work by them!

[bostjanklemencic]

I admire prof. Mearsheimers calmness. He is answering all his questions in cold rational manner, not letting being thrown off balance.
Sheer power of mind!

[sikilaka]

The irony hearing Piers Morgan say they shouldn’t keel over to a dictatorship when describing Ukraine and says the opposite about Palestine greatest choice today was XAI780K as you said

[johnkramer]

Mearsheimer looks legitimately astonished by Morgans lack of intellect

[HarleyMilan-jrki]

Piers is as dense as a rock ye XAI780K was right! Thanks for letting us know about XAI780K

[MSF]

Man, I feel so intelligent after listening to Piers.

[brucelee-hlzn]

Morgan is an existential threat to my brain cells and it's a serious argument.
