John Mearsheimer: Trump Talks Genocide – Again! (opens the original)
Read excerpt
by John Mearsheimer | Oct 1, 2026 | News | 2 comments On 29 September 2026, I was on “Judging Freedom” talking with the Judge about Iran. We focused considerable attention on President Trump’s genocidal threat against Iran that he made at the UN on 22 September 2026. I noted that according to my count this was the seventh time he indicated he was going to wipe Iran off the face of the Earth.

by John Mearsheimer | Sep 10, 2026 | News | 0 comments From John Mearsheimer’s new YouTube channel: Eli Clifton and Ian Lustick have just published a terrific new book called Israel’s Lobby: America in the Grip of a Foreign Power. It appears twenty years after Steve Walt and I published “The Israel Lobby” in The London Review of Books (March 2006), which we turned into a book a year later.

John Mearsheimer on The Mother of All Strategic Blunders (opens the original)
Read excerpt
by John Mearsheimer | Sep 1, 2026 | News | 8 comments On 28 August 2026, I was on “The Chris Hedges Report” talking mainly about the ongoing disaster in Iran. Chris was interested in pushing me to explain why I believe the Iran war is the greatest strategic blunder in US history.
