- This is the second interview we did with Professor John Mearsheimer on wars and great power politics. Watch the first one here: • John Mearsheimer: Is C...
In this second interview with American political scientist and international relations scholar John Mearsheimer, we discussed the current status of the war in Ukraine and prospects for resolution, moral issues around Israeli military campaigns in Gaza, deterrence and risks of conflict in the South China Sea, and whether ideology is declining in importance when it comes to international relations.

When the definition of morality is ambiguous, and when violence is easily justified, what logic will you use to guide your course of action?
The lunar eclipse 😅
The reckless and unrighteous actions of your unrighteous goals.
United States foreign policy since 1897!
Read the Bible. Judge a tree by its fruits.
@@AuditorInvestor Despite the US claims of freedom founded on liberty. Those roots of the tree were in fact founded on the inhumanity of slavery and violence against the Africans. and the disposition of the Indigenous peoples of North America. Evil is indeed in the DNA of its founding fathers and to this day.
The sad thing about wars is that those who start or instigate a war are never in or even near the battle field themselves.
Yes and those who go to war are not brave men and women fighting for their country. They are paid assasins fighting fir a few powerful individuals.
never
Zelensky was near the front plenty of times 😂
This is the biggest issue with modern warfare and our current politcal leaders. In the past, when there were kings and queens as leaders, they went to war and their entire families were on the front lines fighting and defending civilians. That entire equation has changed, what we have now is a system where our world leaders never have to put their lives on the line. They sit from afar and press a button and people die. There is a complete imbalance in what war entails and what is risked by those who call for war.
not true. Stalin's son was captured by the Nazis.... The Nazi's tried to exchange him, but his son was too low ranking for the Nazi that Russia had captured. Imagine that!! He said no to his own son.. How's that for nepotism?
I admire John Mearshimer opinion and analysis He is an honorable man and very intelligent and brave❤
PROFESSOR JOHN MEARSHEIMER A MAN OF INTEGRITY AND TRUTH,,,GOD BLESS HIM.
On Ukraine and Gaza, yes -- but not with it at all about China.
He might be sharp from US POV, but fundamentally, his beliefs align with US imperialism. Some ppl from US former colonies might like him, cause his idea might bring the master back.
Russian bot ----- please. Gag me.
WARP view of INTEGRITY...?🤨
Shouldn’t INTEGRITY include an UNBIASED opinion/view of Global GEOPOLITICAL... seems JM has a blind spot/loyalty in KEEPING HEGEMONY of USA & to maintain USA IMPERIALISM regardless...to the point of starting ANOTHER WAR..(which it no longer can afford) BUT only this time, China are on a Military Technological level playing field...🙄 🙄
Ukraine is russian project. Palestine is russian project. And Mearsheimer is a russian project
John Mearsheimer is the man for the moment. Finally after years of scholarship and analysis of world events, he's come into his own through podcasts and alternative media. He's great. And your conversation with him is one of the best. Thank you, Gita Wirjawan.
ANOTHER russian bot. unbelievable
@@cheponis Hahahahahaha. Yep.
@@cheponiswhere?
@@kumstuke There. Right there.
@@cheponis good camouflage, still couldn't see it
Bravo for Dr. Mearsheimer for his courageous expose of the Israel lobby. His books and public statements have done much to document the power of the Israel lobby in American politics and the government of the United States. He is to be commended!
funny thing but his closest friend is nazi. Never trust a person who claims that the act of even indiscriminate bombing a genocide.
Not only in the US but also in Western Europe... they are a significant political player... I am not a nutjob who believes in those crazy Jewish conspiracies, not at all, but it is a fact that they lobby very hard and are very influential in Europe too.
This “ professor “ is old , dirty and irrelevant
@@Kenny-yl9pc we have a saying that roughly goes like: you won't get a smoke if there wasn't a fire. what we see regarding the lobby and its influence is the smoke my friend. this is no conspiracy
@@Coldheat84 You mean "where there's smoke there's fire". In Europe in most countries they have the exact same saying. Where are you from?
John Mearshimer should be on every tv news show so people might finally understand what is going on in Gaza and other war zones.
I've never heard more sense come out of anybody else's mouth over all this. What a fantastic podcast. I couldn't fault him on anything he said. The world needs more brilliant minds like his. 👍
God I love listening to smart people talk at length
At the beginning I was not fond of Mersheimer view, but he proved me wrong so many times, that couldn't help but to study his view with more attention and curiosity. He's been right on every single issue he talked about regarding international affairs. He's one of a kind, respects.
Marshmellow is a moron and Russian apologist. Why to people give him the time of day?
Even a dead clock is 2x right a day
His Ukraine talks are outrageous garbage....but concerning the far right ultranationalist ultra-orthodox Authoritarian Israeli government he is spot on.
@@femiceo328 Bullshit, Maersheimer has been right in ALL his predictions for Ukraine as is proven by time-stamped documents here on RUclips over a Decade ago before even Maidan in 2014....
Nice try but no chance....
Maersheimers truth, integrity and accuracy is undeniably out for all giving any value to it.
I think he's right on many things but I disagree that China is US biggest enemy... I'm sure there is more to gain from collaboration than viewing each other as enemies.
When Witjawan says Indonesia dealt with multipolarity in a good way, he seems to completely ignore the CIA coup that installed Suharto and wiped out millions of his citizens for supporting neutrality.
In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever seen him deal with this issue on the show, which makes the constant passive agreement anti-Sino remarks locate his loyalty in Washington rather than Southeast Asia.
Good interview though. He got Mearsheimer to clearly illustrate the most key points on all of the issues.
The smartest comment I found here. 🎉
Excellent observation 👌🏽
So true
Many who were educated in the west have a western bias. Prisoner of colonial mentality.
You hope someone whose life is connected to USA will be against it ?
I am a PhD student and the theory which I am working on is neorealism. I am presently reading his book. And I must concede, his articulation is commendable.
You are kidding, right? The dude is a Russian stooge!
Anybody that's studied geopolitcs and militar history saw this unfolding like it has many years ago. Prof Mearsheimer isn't right about everything he says but like many saying the same things, he's right about the USA, Ukraine, Russia, China and Israel. We'll either get a "frozen conflict", a "Russian win" or WW3. The USA badly needs regime change. That's the bottom line.
Interesting how over 2% inflation has been a concern when central banks and the Fed begin to hike interest rates. I consider the rising interest rate to be a very serious issue since it will undoubtedly cause more investors to withdraw their money from the stock market. But then I'm still aware of certain investors that continue to earn over $365,000. Wish I could accomplish that.
Very possible! Particularly in the current market. There are several opportunities to generate excellent returns, but such intricate transactions can only be carried out by seasoned market professionals.
AGREED! Over 3 years now, I've made over 1.7 million by simply following a coach's advice. I was on the sidelines for a while watching, trying to determine the best time to get in, before I came across a coach, recommended by my wife. I was reluctant at first but I went ahead and contacted the coach. Best decision yet
This sounds interesting. My portfolio is in the red. Can you recommend your analyst, please?
Credits goes to Marisa Michelle Litwinsky, one of the finest portfolio managers in the field. She's widely recognized; you should take a look at her work.
Thanks for the advice. The search for your coach was simple. I investigated her well before using her services.
Mearsheimer and Finkelstein are on my mount Rushmore of humanists
What a fantastic, clear-eyed analysis. Its so refreshing to hear someone finally tell me the truth.
Thank you Prof. Meirsheimer. You are a great American hero and a gift to humanity.
Deeply appreciate how you were able to ask Professor Mearsheimer his take on Stephen Kotkin's "winning the peace" argument and how he illustrated the differences between a true peace and a frozen conflict
And one of the reasons that the United States usually obeys the rules is that we wrote the rules, and if a situation arises where we don't like the rules, we disobey the rules or rewrite them. That's the way international politics works. 1:11:00
It's called Rules-based order vs International Law. The US doesn't abide by international law.
@@pr0newbieUSA don’t abide by its own domestic humanitarian law. That’s scary.
My rule based order
If you ignore the rules you wrote, then don't expect any other to adhere to it or respect you. In fact many will view you in contempt. That's what's facing US.
@@jameslum8822and who should hold USA in contempt? Who is powerful enough to hold USA in check and accountable for behaving like hypocrites 🤷♀️
One of the best interviews of Professor Mearsheimer. Thanks to the gentleman who is conducting the interview. He knows how to interview without any provocation and interruption.
If that is one of the best, how fake are the other inerviews?
Zionist🤢🤢🤢
Yea he is better than Teers Mongor!😂
even when his guest is full of misinformation and inaccurate research. Personally I like truth not biased inaccurate facts
@@aleejones7508 you must be delusional saying that from your arm couch... just read the guest's credentials..
John is so knowledgeable and is easy to listen to and understand. I could listen to him for hours.
Winning the peace depends on which side defines the "peace". For true peace to arise, "peace" defined as the satisfaction of justice, both sides would have to be satisfied that their real or perceived claims over injustice have been satisfied. For this to happen in this conflict there is still a very long road ahead.
"...be intellectually curious in the extreme..." Now that's a good thing to live by.
Agreed
Who said the quote?
@@leonardo__dicapriowatch the video
Probably that’s his advice to young people. (Just started watching )
I am so delighted the way Professor addressed the ludicrous "win the peace" argument of Kotkin who clearly was delusional when he rambled about it in a previous program. The exclusion of Russia and Russian interests is a recipe for war. It has been the case in 2022 and it will continue being the case until someone wakes up and gets the balls to negotiate for real.
Lose/Win the war/the peace is a framework for looking at things and understanding them. It is not an argument.
JM had no trouble expressing his own (grim) views within this framework, demonstrating it's validity.
Kotkin is a fraud, i don't get what people admire about him.
@@partizanSquadHe possesses a sort of scholarly charisma that is uncommon by academics. But youre right, he is ideologically blinkered and has various 'simpleton' moments.
@@dangin8811
Could you pin such a moment?
@@dangin8811 Charisma ? I don't see it, and don't care about it when it comes to historarians.
If i want to learn about the history of a country, i don't want to read again the white/western version/vision that we're told about again and again. I read local historians.
How on earth can people believe the history of Russia or China written by AngloSaxon people ? Pure nonsense.
the question that has not been answered as of 36 minutes is if AIPAC has to lobby for things, how does AIPAC hold so much power over US politicians that they "fear" for their jobs if they don't capitulate to them? Who are the people that make up AIPAC?
it is by exploiting them video tap them with sex tapes with minors etc ... Epstein case is best example
I think AIPAC is low key a blackmail ring; its the only explanation I can think of. Especially since the Epstien case revealed that many top officials had ties to Jeff and that Jeff also had ties to the Mossad.
AIPAC is the mossad by another name...also known as blackmail.
AIPAC is just a fairy tale, the real masters are behind money printing mechanism.
Leave that question.
Dank an Sie beide aus Deutschland für diese umfassenden Analysen der Weltbeschaffenheit.
Professor Mearsheimer is one of the most respected intellectuals, historians, geopoliticians in the U.S and the world! He’s among our most notable thinkers and visionaries just as Professors Noam Chomsky, Jeffery Sachs, Stephen Walt, Norman Finkelstein, Stephen F Cohen …
Finkelstein is an abject fraud and moron. Chomsky is brilliant but a zealot with a personality disorder. Sachs is a lightweight. Stephen F. Cohen was a brilliant man. Mearsh. is a knock off of Cohen and not a very good one. Mearsh is only right about Ukraine.
Named only jews like there are not american professors.
I personally prefer Professor Sachs hands down .
@@GreyElderabsolutely. He is all the theories ! He has a severe lacking of understanding of the history of China & the Chinese ; so typical of the academics!
He knows nothing regarding the situation on the ground. He would have to come from the Eastern Europe to understand and comprehend what's going on on battlefield.
If I hear Dr. Mearsheimer I cannot stop listening. He is really a smart and an erudite man! Tks a lot fof this interesting interview 👏👏👏
the same.
He's in the catbird seat
John is worthless no life living spreading conspiracy go and touch grass
Dem möchte ich mich gerne anschließen - habe bereits 2007 ,Die Israel Lobby' gelesen und bin hoch erfreut. dass diesem Mann, die Aufmerksamkeit zuteil wird, die ihm zusteht. Wenn unsere Politiker nur einen Bruchteil der Übersicht. der Ahnung, des Wissens besäßen, die Hern Maersheimers auszeichnet, wäre schon einiges gewonnen. Mehr Maersheimer - jederzeit immer gerne. Danke für dieses Interview.
Keep hearing John talk about how much superior Russia is, 10x more artillery, Russia Air Force vs no Air Force, manpower advantage, industrial advantage.. so why haven’t they won yet? Been hearing this for 2 years now
I learned of him in 2023 and realized our arguments overlapped 95% of the time....
One of the BEST INTERVIEWS you can find on RUclips. Amazing Channel and interviewer! You can tell Mr. Mearsheimer enjoyed it as much as we have... props to you. If that's the Indonesian way of speaking i wanna be Indonesian!
I'm glad to see this man again and listen to his intriguing opinions about global geopolitical. Thanks, John. Stay healthy always.

@@robhaythorne4464Your post history is smearing John as a supporter of Russia. My man the world, particularly geopolitics, is not binary. If you were going to accuse him of a bias it would be anti-Soviet/Russia if you've read any of his literature. If someone observes country X has an advantage over country Y in a war, it doesn't mean the observer is biased towards country X. *You'd probably agree China has an advantage over Tawain. Does that mean you support China for acknowledging that advantage? Of course not.

i think is time the world tell US, Thank you for your leading and protection to the world. we are all grown up now and capable to take care our nation peacefully. Bless you.
Good dialogue but Gita disappoints in not pushing back on John’s well known hawkish views about China’s potential aims in East Asia, I think.
Agreed! like other commenters said.
it's not gita's style to push or challenge his guest, he always lets his guest offers their views without being confronted.
for example, 42:00 gita is correct that zionism was not meant to commit genocide, but john wrongly stated that they know from the start they're going to cleanse the palestinian because they couldnt have established a jewish state among palestinians. well, zionism started in late 19th century was to find homeland for the jews, not to establish a jewish state, therefore it's possible to live side by side as long as they're not praticing apartheid as in the original zionism. first generation of aliyah among zionists in 19th century was relatively peaceful, things gotten worse only since balfour declaration and jewish businessmen (rothschild etc) who bought many lands etc.
but then, gita didn't try to debate john either though i think he knows john was wrong here.
@@wawanhermawan-sz7glThe British army trained up genocidal Zionist forces in the 30s and they were unleashed in the 48 Nakba slaughter and eviction of a substantial part of the population. They have continued step by step since then.
@@wawanhermawan-sz7glI’d say, the idea that Jews could live peacefully among Arabs and under the Turkish rule was either totally naive and delusional (which would be strange for such a clever nation) or disguising the real goals. If you want to have Jews settling and living en masse while surrounded by Arabs, you need to carve out a state for them - I suspect, Jews realized this from the beginning just at the initial stages did not proclaim this openly for the obvious reasons.
@@shelonnikgrumantov5061You don't understand Judaism. Jews back then didn't have the idea that there should be a 'Jewish state,' at least until the Messiah comes according to their beliefs. In fact, it's prohibited.
Traditional Jewish belief holds that the establishment of a Jewish state is linked to the arrival of the Messiah and the Messianic age.

That's a bold assessment.
@@zetristan4525 Thank you for noticing my comment.
Really how is his assessment of China's intentions any different from US foreign policy?? China has not attacked anyone in this century. They are building a defense against the Empire of lies. Think about the prosperity China has brought to other countries without forcing regime change on them.
@@j.sarnak1391 What is your (differing) assessment of how China will proceed, proactively, in the South China Sea, in the decade ahead?
@@j.sarnak1391 I agree with you and I heard John Mearsheimer say the same.
Wonderful conversation!
It is truly an intellectually stimulating creative pleasure to attend Professor Mearsheimer's lectures. I feel that Prof. Mearsheimer is asking us the question, “Is there a solution to the problem of how to deal with the monster that is growing bigger and bigger with resentment and rage?
I feel that Professor Mearsheimer is sounding the alarm that such a problem is materializing without our knowledge.
Would you please give an example of where China is trying to rewrite the rules?
China has been advocating international law based order instead of the (US/Western) rule based order which has been used by US and her allies to attack China. China does not want to be ruled by those laws which in the US's book is rewriting the rules
Not yet, because they're not powerful enough to do it just yet.
China would love it if they could repeal EEZ and lau absolute claim over South China Sea
China is not trying to rewrite rules at all, it just wants to be equal and not be ruled by foreign white imperial power. Most of Asia is the same except they are too weak to resist. This is what he means by "threat", you and I would see it as threat but these global empire fanatics think they own the world and any country can't rule over is considered a "threat"
You forget that China Has hypersonic missiles that can sink all the US warships.

i think this is what mearsheimer gets wrong in that he views power through the individualist / liberal ideology
Excellent interview. Greetings from São Paulo, Brazil.
Honesty is so refreshing.
When John Mearsheimer says there is a genocide going on in Gaza people should listen! In the start he was very hesitant to call it a genocide. Meaning, incoming facts have changed his mind.

"the Australians gonna defend Taiwan with us"? I wouldn't hold my breath on that one - the population is certainly not keen at all on doing so or being dragged by the US into another useless war, gonna be interesting if our government, whoever it may be at the time, is going to be able to force us.
The government can always mobilise their armed forces without the consent of their civilians.
Would that then be a political suicide for said ruling government? That's a different question

john mearsheimer’s point of view based on the prediction that China is going to walk through the road exactly like how America did when it became a superpower, but he kinda ignored the history path of the chinese civilization, Chinese are just not the same like the Anglos. Chinese never had those colonial mentality, if they do, SEA are full of small countries, it should be easy for a elephant like China to manipulate those small states and exploit them, but on the other hand, China has only been building up economic connections and do more business with them.
You said it ALL! greetings from Portugal!
you might want to take a look at the history of china how it grows then you would know that what you say might not be concurrently true...
@@sholrothaegis3125 that statement is a fair one if already known the future. We cannot accept the fact that we don't like the political values of a country but you cannot judge their future actions just by not liking them! We see their true colours by their actions and not by their words. If so then the austrian painter with a moustache was a great man...
This is extremely foolish and ignorant of China's history. During the cultural revolution for example, China export its marxist revolutionary teachings to many countries, provide training and arms to native armed groups (thus they are known as maoist revolutionaries), host radio stations within China itself for these maoist forces. For example, the Communist Party of Malaya which fought an insurgency against Malaysia's government has its radio station in hunan China.
This only come to an end when Mao died and Deng took over. He decide that China should build economic ties instead of export marxist revolution and ordered these forces to step down. And they did.
With the way China is going today, who knows if Xi will revive the cultural revolution again and build a cult of personality for himself?
Thank you gentlemen for a great interview.I appreciate your time and thoughtful talk. It was a pleasure listening to you.

Definitely a man who speaks with great intelligence, forsight, is very levelheaded, honest, and very insightful.
Is that right, Russian bot?
"It matters not what puppet is placed upon the throne, he who controls the money supply, controls the Empire"
Wonderful discussion..
A lot of respect for the professor. What I would like to hear is the consideration of the cultures' influences in the decision making, rather than focusing on how the rest of the non-Western world would make decision based on pure Western thinking. Remember, China would have to govern Taiwan island once they re-unified, which is unlike Israel (who would just go ahead to cleanse), or Russia (who would be happy if Ukraine remains a rump state).
Dari sini kita paham bahwa PBB tidak akan berbicara banyak tentang genosida di gaza, hal yang menyedihkan untuk kita ketahui bersama di era sekarang. 😢😢😢
It takes gut to talk against a powerful enemy like AIPAC . Thank you professor.
Amen to the hubris-humility part
‘The reason u need a lobby … is because there’s a lot of instances where isreal’s interests conflicts with American interests and lobby wants to go to great lengths to make sure isreal’s interests prevail’ wow, quite simple but never thought of it this way.
Can’t get this type of intellectual conversation in any western mainstream media ❤
I love listening to Dr Mearsheimer
Professor is a knowledgeable man and has been telling us this for years this was all predictable
You are correct
@@vkerametlian3 the professor is a defeatist, appeasement with a belligerent adversary never ends well
John is a national treasure.
This is a GREAT interview! I have shared it with a number of people. The title does not do it justice! 🙏👍
Most countries in the world produce weapons and equipment to defend themselves and therefore have a greater say in what, the costs, the aims and expectations are for their defence.
America on the other hand produces weapons and equipment almost entirely for the Profit of the Weapons Manufacturers. So as you can see the motivation are different. Russia and China are concerned a war maybe "put upon them" where the U.S has no such fear and is often going to war purely for profitable reasons. So who is the threat to World Peace?
US has been promoting his 2nd amendment to the world. is it also a coincidence that gang violence in neighboring Central and South America has been very tricky to resolve? I don't think so. there has to be a way to impose more stringent regulations to this dangerous, deadly business
Let the SE Asian countries work out their problems themselves . In their culture they are very careful not to cut off all communication. The western culture is more pro or contra . Black or white, no grey area to look for a solution .
@@paulvandoorn9405 I do not disagree with the points you are making. My comments was to show the contrast between the motivations of the different incentives that induce the productions of arms and ammunitions. One was on defence and the other was primarily for greed. I conclude that when greed is the motivation war will be the result.
strange that I don't see my previous comment anymore 🤔
so beautiful to listen to these carefully spoken words, thank you!
Mersheimer lay it down plain and simple. To see his face when Piers started his rant, was priceless. It was two different leagues, intellectually speaking.
🇸🇪❤️🇷🇺✌️🆗
How can the "China containment" strategy possibly a viable long term objective?
Ini temubual kedua dengan Prof. Mearsheimer. Syabas kepada Gita Wijawan
As noted in Haaretz, Netanyahu seems to boast of his knowledge of the US by saying, "I know what America is. America is a thing you can move very easily, move it in the right direction. They won't get in their way."
He also boasts of manipulating the U.S. in the ongoing peace process, as the Washington Post points out:
"They asked me before the election if I'd honor [the Oslo accords]," he said. "I said I would, but ... I'm going to interpret the accords in such a way that would allow me to put an end to this galloping forward to the '67 borders. How did we do it? Nobody said what defined military zones were. Defined military zones are security zones; as far as I'm concerned, the entire Jordan Valley is a defined military zone. Go argue."
America, apparently, is moved by the Israel lobby. Evidence to the contrary has yet to emerge.
If you move to. Gaza for a while, you will change your mind.
We even let him speak on the floor of our Congress!!
@@solneeman518there was a christian churches with Christians in gaza, yet they continued to live there. Your point is mute.
It saddens me that these are the kinds of people who don't get into politics. They know too much about how things work to want to waste their time. At best, they'll serve as consultants, but never throw their hats into the running for a seat. They know it's a losing proposition.
