Mearsheimer, the ultimate "realist," turns on Trump and implies that he's crazy.
This is the guy our MAGA freaks adore as if his pronouncements are pontifical.

He and Trump pointed out the same truth: Ukraine war is caused by Nato expansion. It's provoked.
Mearsheimer even predicted the war would happen 11 years ago given neocon's aggressive strategy toward Russia. The video of his prediction has been viewed by 30 millions, I think. At this board it was linked 3 times, I believe.
Not true and you know it - You keep spouting Putin speak thar Sputnik.

Did not watch the video I see. Mearshimer essential calls Trump crazy
I suppose crazy people can say some things that someone agrees with.
I don’t share Professor Mearshimer’s 18th century geopolitical views but he is just an academic and not the leader of the most powerful nation
On earth
You seem very triggered by Mr. Mearsheimer.
Does it have anything to do with evolved apes and such?
Time to "Get Real", Eli...Putin wants and needs Ukraine's mineral assets...all the rest is a smoke
screen...
You get ridiculous. Russia has so much minerals. Russia's problem is they can't dig them out.
Ukraine's minerals are nothing comparing to Russia's. It doesn't make sense that Russia wants more minerals when their current minerals can't be mined due to their limited resources of engineering & technology and labor. Also, mining minerals is a thin-margin profit business. It won't make much money. So, if you have enough minerals in your land, why bother to take others ? As neocon Madeleine Albright, secretary of state under Clinton once said, you Russuans have too much resources. It's unfair to the rest of World.
Russia is a 19th century nation... in every respect.
It leads the world in only one category: Brain Drain.
Nope. Russia's stem education is better than us, much better I would say. What Russia lacks is
entrepreneurs. They don't know how to use their stem talents.
Yes Putin had no choice but to invade a sovereign state and kill hundreds of thousands
Idiot.
And Biden had no choice but to allow it.

What would you have proposed Joe do to stop it?

That's just nuts...
Ukraine soldiers were practicing how to use U.S. Javelin Anti-Tank missiles at least a month before Russia invaded...and they made all the difference in halting the advance.
Given the average age of posters on the board, he'd probably fit right in, if he hasn't already.
