90 minutes is too long for me to watch.
Israel is confident she can always push her neighbors around because the U.S. will always support her bullying financially, diplomatically and militarily. Maybe so, maybe no. Lately indications are that Americans have had just about enough of seeing their tax dollars spent to prop up that shittly little nation.

Noelle-Neumann controversy
In October 1991, Mearsheimer was drawn into a bitter controversy at the University of Chicago regarding Elisabeth Noelle-Neumann, then a visiting professor from Germany. Noelle-Neumann was a prominent German pollster and a leading academic on public opinion research, who authored the highly regarded book, The Spiral of Silence. The debate centered on an article written for Commentary magazine by Leo Bogart, "The Pollster and the Nazis," which described
Noelle-Neumann's past employment as a writer and editor for the Nazi newspaper Das Reich from 1940 to 1942.[35] Noelle-Neumann's response to the article was to claim that "texts written under a dictatorship more than 50 years ago cannot be read as they were in 1937, 1939 or 1941. Severed from the time and place where they were written, they are no longer real, for reality is in part based on time and place."[36]
As chairman of Chicago's political science department at the time, Mearsheimer sat down with Noelle-Neumann to discuss the article and the allegations. After meeting with her for over three hours,
Mearsheimer publicly declared, "I believe that Noelle-Neumann was an anti-Semite,"[36] and he spearheaded a campaign to ask her for an apology.[37] He joined other University of Chicago faculty in writing a joint piece for Commentary that reacted to Noelle-Neumann's reply to the accusation against her.
They declared that "by providing rhetorical support for the exclusion of Jews, her words helped make the disreputable reputable, the indecent decent, the uncivilized civilized, and the unthinkable thinkable."[38] Mearsheimer said, "Knowing what we know now about the Holocaust, there is no reason for her not to apologize. To ask somebody who played a contributing role in the greatest crime of the 20th century to say 'I'm sorry' is not unreasonable."[39]
