@WillFinch-k4j no, John mearshiemer is brutal, completely backward about Israel. I haven't read what he thinks of Russia but after his garbage about Israel I'm not interested in hearing it. Seriously, he's totally wrong.

The Iran- Israel war that became hot on Oct 7 is also a Soviet/Russian war. It's important for people to realize this. The Soviets had since the 1960s been stoking islamism all around the mid east to create a Muslim army against the West, initially against Israel and the USA. Yasser Arafat was a kgb asset and central player. Together with their terribly effective decades long state propeganda campaigns, they have succeeded in fully weaponizing local Arabs ('palestinians') and Muslims of all sorts, and in selling distorted narratives to both isolate Israel and drive a wedge through western society. It's been wholly effective. (Israel is one topic of many in which Soviet bastardization has been successfully utilized to sully social discourse in the West, and to deeply sell anti Western themes to westerners. This WILL end the west on its own if we dont find a way to stop it.) A strong prosperous Israel unified with the west has a growing movement of Arab nations interested in giving up their traditional hatred and joining forces with them-and moving together toward modernity and into the western orbit. This would bring massive continental gains in stability, individual freedoms/human rights, prosperity and global security. If however Israel is permitted to be isolated and destroyed, the area will become a 7th century repressive theocracy and terror state, and will help drag the whole region back toward the Russian orbit. This is what Russia has been angling for since 1964, abetted since 79 by the Islamic regime in Iran, who is motivated like others by pure religious hatred. It is critical for the west to wake up and take both Israel and Ukraine VERY seriously, and to stop ceding position and power to the Russian led, islamist infused axis that is intent on usurping and destroying Western liberal democratic civilization. The home front battle within Western universities, Media, boardroom, politics and classrooms HAS to be addressed as a global battle front, one that has long been dangerously overrun. We can not allow the west to fall, because the world will then only know violent oppression, suffering and poverty with no remaining alternative or counterbalance. Thank you Ryan for all you do.

Both Ukraine and Israel are Russian wars. The Russians have managed to create a situation where one major US political party doesn't take Ukraine seriously and the other disparages Israel. This is masterful of them and foolish of us;both are wars with the potential and intention to reshape the balance of power on their respective continents. Both situations stem from the same related anti Western axis of nations and organizations that is determined to usurp and destroy western liberal democracy completely. Mishandling either situation will result in increased aggression from this axis going forward- so: more war, more instability, more pressure against the West - more expense as the west copes with the results and chips away to incessantly defend itself from the forces/nations that wish to destroy it. Those forces grow stronger with each victory or failure of western resolve. The best way to handle Ukraine is to treat it like a NATO member- flood it with western troops and equipment and fight for it like it matters. Make it clear to Putin that he has no chance. Back Russia all the way up to Moscow and demand that they sign for peace. Put them in the corner and hold them there. Similarly, unified Western support of Israel and pressure on Iran and its proxies would bring down the temperature in the mid east and enable both an end to fighting and the resumption of peace talks within the Abraham Accords. There is only one way to deal with bullies like Putin and the genocidal Islamic regime of Iran, and the west instead is acting like a grown adult whose never had to survive a school yard- totally and completely backward. The surest way to increase aggression of a bully is to indicate you're not prepared to fight. But putin and his islamist axis aren't regular bullies- they are ideological and religious extremists, determined to end the western way of life. The Russians have not stopped at this goal since the Soviet era. They are joined by all satellites and allies in their orbit, whom are also ideologically and religiously motivated. It does no good to simply leave them be- they are coming for us and have never stopped in all these years. (How many decades did it take hezbollah to dig those hundreds of miles of tunnels into the rock of southern lebanon?) It's very nice that we just want to get along and build prosperity and freedom, but they do not. They are determined to come for us. So we have no choice but to fight for it. The less we do now, the worse it's going to be later- by far. The time is now to stand up strong for Ukraine and Israel. To reestablish peace and security on just terms, to push back this genocidal aggression. To keep China and others in check by so doing. John Bolton is a man that should be listened to. Westerners need to wake up and recognize we don't get to choose. We also need to be reminded the west is valuable and worth fighting for. Too many of us have come to believe otherwise. I hope for the best but based on the past few years I fear the worst.
