the University of Chicago is one of the most prestigious institutions in the world, and Dr Mearsheimer teaches there. He's renowned.
but you're going to throw a temper tantrum because you want to know what I think instead?
okay disingenuous guy, have a great rest of your day

I am very glad Dr whatever is an egghead who shines a seat with his arse and has an opinion. Those are like assholes everybody's got one, except apparently you.
How is this throwing a tantrum. I'm pointing out you posted a 1:02 long video from some egghead and called it "fantastic". You then specifically pointed out that he said something about Iran going after desalination facilites of it's neighbors.
I asked why you or he thought that was a good idea. I opined it was not.
you responded like a piece of human camoflague.
The video was fantastic. He's a really smart egghead with a dumb position. You want to tout his video and his smartness.
You just don't want to display any of your own by actually discussing or debating the position you tout.
I can get that from the family pet. Which apparently is a better conversationist than you.

Sounds good
Sorry you're lazy
If you were selecting international relations classes in college, one taught by Nobody Harry Rex, and the other taught by Dr John Mearsheimer, which one would you select?

"Sounds good

not sure how it's lazy for not wanting to spend one hour and two minutes watching a talking head I've never heard of before, when I have a guy who has apparently watched it to the point he thinks it fantastic, but is unwilling to discuss it.
I'm not selecting a class in college. I'm on a forum interacting with people who presumably came here to discuss things. If I didn't want to discuss and debate the positions people have I would go to youtube and watch videos by people like Dr Egghead.
Again, I think Dr Eggheads position that Iran will attack the water sources of its neighbors is certainly possible. I'd be curious to know what he or anyone who thinks he's fantastic believes they will accomplish by this.
But since I'm lazy and you are unwilling to discuss videos you post and tout I will go on being curious

I hope this makes you feel better. You were saying somehting about a tantrum? this is the 2nd one you've pitched over your unwillingness to take a position on Dr Eggheads video.

One thing he speculates is that Iran MIGHT destroy desalination water plants, which will not only destroy the ability for fresh drinking water, but also prevent the fresh water needed for oil and gas production
the main theme is that Dr Mearsheimer does not think Iran is going to back down any time soon
here's your OP.
what a fantastic speculation. Dr Egghead really hit it out of the park here by speculating that a terroristic regime MIGHT act like terrorists.
and the hard hitting theme from Dr Egghead that Iran isn't going to back down anytime soon really catches us all flat footed. I mean, it's not like we can get that by turning on CNN or The View ammirite?
I'm sure he's worth all the effort I didn't spend watching him.

He’s been screaming for about 2 years now about how Ukraine is set to collapse at any moment, because there’s just no way that they can resist the mighty Russia, in a war of attrition for so long.

Well, as soon as the bra goes back over the teat of Western support, that could be true.
He was also saying this 10 years ago. I sat through the whole thing one night. Pretty solid, IMHO.

Without even looking at the names in this little exchange, I’ll just say these posts are always some of the doucheyist I ever come across.

That’s incredible if true but most ballers don’t feel the need to tell others they ball.
Interesting, glad you are doing well, whatever that number is to you.

So he basically writes all negative opinions on US geopolitics and teaches at the university of Chicago?
I’m sure he has no bias.
