I am impressed by Ian Bremmer's critical thinking and honest answers to Professor Galloway regarding the complex issue of Israel and the Palestinians. He effectively addressed why people feel strongly and empathetic towards the Palestinian people. Calling individuals sympathetic or empathetic towards Palestinians as anti-Semitic without considering the issue's complexity is a cop-out. I hope Professor Galloway learns from this conversation. I follow him on Pivot and used to be disappointed with his views on Palestinians. Sometimes it seemed that he confuses the Palestinian people with Hamas. This was one of the best conversations I have heard this year. Thank you so much.

Some would. But many others would think "gosh, if these other people whose opinion I value feel this way... maybe I should reconsider this". It will weld existing MAGA base types closer to Trump. And the same for various D's and progs away from Trump. But the 30 odd percent of Americans who are in the middle...? I suspect this would influence a lot of them to think about the significance. Especially if it were world leader and a whole bunch of business leaders saying "Trump will create uncertainty and be bad for business" at the same time.

Yes, I've studied military suicides in depth and have even approached the military with a transition program to help our service members. This is an entirely different problem that requires a different solution. Remember, what I suggested in the Grade 13 idea is a community service year. A military component of which would probably more likely resemble ROTC. I truly appreciate the concern in your comment because that's how we're able to see multiple angles when problem solving.

In just a few short years there won't be much difference between AI developed and algorithmically implanted thought viruses in mindsets globally. Modern White Supremacy is entirely an algorithmic outcome, though not by AI yet, but by bad actors creating and broadly disseminating misinformation. Real fascism is founded in racism; thyat's why words like "blood" and "purity" and such always come up. And there is always a significant portion of the populace ready to rally behind their racial supremacy and the need to protect it. The Great Replacement is entirely a fascist plea to maintain white supremacy, which is undeniably racism, by definition. Honest conservatives producly defend that. Dishonest ones pretend it's not so.

I'm glad he clarified to anti-Israel, not anti-semitism. I think students have been "raised" intellectually/educationally to identify oppressors and oppressed and react accordingly. Israel is the oppressor, Palestinians the victims. Obviously the situation is highly complex, but nuance is a casualty when a group reacts as passionately as we've seen, particularly on campuses. In the specific events going on now in the war, it is understandable to be vocally anti-Israel. It is not my sense, based on what I have seen and heard, that Israel has done all they could to minimize casualties of civilians. And the Israeli government's statements have revealed a ruthlessness that bolsters that. They are killing children at an enormous rate. How could they not, dropping 2000-pound dumb bombs in such a densely populated area. This is an infanticide, not genocide, but infanticide. How many terrorists are they creating?

By ISRAELI MATH that means there are more than 2 million people who are Palestinian, and live under Hamas rule, but are not trying to murder Israelis or deny their right to live, exist, be a government or anything else! (according to TODAY "In 2021, a senior IDF commander said that Hamas was believed to have around 30,000 fighters. That figure matches recent US estimates of the number of fighters Hamas had before the conflict started") If the local crowd is 60 to 1 normal civilians, not fighters, don't you think it's on the guy with the artillery to be sure he's aiming it AWAY from the civilians? If you think it's important to have a way to separate them (and I agree with you on that), then maybe you should also agree with Ian that it's ISRAEL that needs to figure this out BEFORE killing tens of thousands of civilians.

This was wonderful to watch. I've never heard of Ian Bremmer, but I can't remember listening to anyone with whom I so thoroughly and profoundly disagreed with on every point he made! It was a great fundamental confirmation of my own views, and I thank him for that. I now realize that if a significant portion of Americans agree with him, we have more to fear politically than just the lunatic Left. Recently I have been lulled into an itchy complacency by listening to liberals like Alan Dershowitz who made me believe that there are still a swath of democrats we can do business with. Now Ian Bremmer has pulled the scales from my eyes. He made me realize that there is a sinister element of our population that can still probably define what a woman is, disagrees with gender reassignment surgery for teenagers without their parents' consent, thinks that legalized looting is bad, and that traditional education is good, who nonetheless believes that big government is the answer to all our problems. Forewarned is forearmed.

I'm not sure what rock you've been hiding under. Bremmer has had his face, name and books plastered over almost every "centrist" media on the planet for 20 odd years. Whether you agree with him or not, the fact that you say you NEVER HEARD OF HIM says a whole lot about you. Your long paragraph screed about what you THINK he represents is also pretty weird. I watched the whole video, I've read a few of his books, I disagree with him on several issues, but I never heard him weigh in on any of "". I think that's all the voices in your head or something.

50:17 I truly enjoy Scott’s Podcast (thank you for it) and having Ian Bremmer as a guest 🎉to hear into a turbulent year is sublime. However, both of you need to listen to a person who is probabiy your least favourite person (and one of mine). I’m listening to this on my birthday in May - May 11th.2024. Recently, I held my nose and listened to an interview with Steve Bannon. I think it was by FrontLine - one of those MANY interviews they did to try to unravel what got Flump into the Presidency in the 1st place. 2.5 hours of candid convo (basically him talking most of the time) I am fairly certain he has a better grasp of why the core base of Trumpites are so pissed off & disillusioned. It is not simply that they are perhaps on average bigoted, white, & largely male: they watched the HEIST in 2008 & probably lost a good deal of money. If they didn’t, they watched people they love lose money & they watched the government BAIL OUT the culprits. Confidence in the American system was lost. Bannon readily admits he comes from modest roots -and thus angered him. He saw the elites on both political sides (R & D’s ) to blame & he was looking for his man to wreak havoc & seize control. That’s exactly what they did. Was it better? No. Did he care? No. But that may not be of course answer to why they exist & why they stick to Dump like glue, but it IS true they have a right to be angry. It’s just that some of their anger has been simply redirected as mob hatred. You never mentioned this fact once - neither Ian or you, Scott. That rage was simply hijacked.

This is extraordinarily good -- so thoughtful. I'm an unlimited, enormous fan of Scott Galloway, who I think is the most honest, perceptive, caring observer of what's happening in America and in his own life story. So I say this with caution, because it's hard to make this point --- it is so difficult to have a nuanced discussion of Israel/Palestinian issues. It's also so important to recognize that there are actual, vicious, brutal anti-semites out there, and critics of current Israeli policy must denounce them and try hard to distinguish their view from these dangerous, terrible neo-Nazi jackasses. What I would try to tell Scott is that a lot of younger people are increasingly critical of Israel because of concern for the Palestinians... what are these people supposed to do? A two-state solution with the post-1967 Occupied Territories returned to Palestinians, provided they are willing (as some have said) to recognize the existence and legitimacy of Israel. But, as Ian Bremmer, says: it isn't going to happen.

It continues to “flummox” me that otherwise perceptive people cite pro-Palestinian = pro-Hamas = anti-Semitic as fact. I look at that as a profound blank spot. Without pro-Palestinian there is no peace for anyone in that region. I’ve read Osama Bin Laden’s 1996 and 1998 fatwahs against the US. Nevertheless, at the highest levels of government academia and media, OBL hates us for our freedoms. Fortunately there’s a ground swell of younger people who lack the blank spot where cause and effect are glaringly obvious.

Palestinians want a state “from the river to the sea” . That is not going to happen !!! Let’s be specific about what is not going to happen … Human nature is simple : You do not reward bad behavior . Ian Bremmer and his progressive/ liberal partners treat Palestinians as if they were inferior chimpanzees and as poor creatures that need a special treatment that are being wrongly treated … fact is , Israeli Arabs and Moslem citizens live a dignified and productive life in Israel … if Palestinians want sovereignty over the lives ? A conversation with the mirror is where they need to start ! The Abraham accord( especially with all its gulf state members) has gotten as far as it’s gotten , no thanks to progressives like Bremmer , but because of the conclusions that Palestinian leaders are corrupt to the core , they exploit and manipulate and steal all the money the members of the gulf state Abraham accord ( we’re talking about many many billions of dollars ) came to the realization that Palestinians are not going to elevate themselves like Israeli Arabs have in past 70 + years … Conversations with the mirror is where Palestinians ought to start !!! Time is not on palestinians side …

The problem started with the collapse of soviet union. America became drunk with all this power, and Israel took full advantage of it. World was watching it. And with time nations, particularly Iran, were cornered to a point that it started manufacturing missiles. Internet and GPS changed the whole scenarios. Afghanistan proved that power and technology have limits. Houthis are on the same path. U.S. is slowly coming to its senses. Israel is also realizing its limits.

The goal was never to control or colonize that country, and it is similar with Iraq. Ukraine and Israel are proving the same point, but in reverse. Ukrainians and Israelis, in contrast to Afghans and Iraqis, are willing to fight for their freedom as long as it takes, and they will have it. The difference between Ukraine, Israel, Afghanistan and Iraq is the difference between Western and Islamic people.

Russia DESERVES to lose here, but they have more people to feed into the meat grinder. I think Ian believes Ukraine will run out of bodies before Russia does. It's not a lack of will, it's a lack of men to pull triggers. I understand the arguments, but I wish we had established a no fly zone over Ukraine 22 months ago. Or given them modern fighter jets and started training their pilots back then. It would make a huge difference today if we had.

Ian Bremmer is always insightful and not afraid to speak his belief, and this interview is no different. On the Middle Eastern conflict though, I'd quibble with him on a few points: 1. He said there hasn't been a chance for the Palestinians to rule themselves while there is Israel. Actually there has been one since 2005: Gaza. Too bad Hamas focused on destroying Israel rather than demostrating the superiority of a Palestinian state; 2. Regarding the media coverage on the Irainian terrorist bombing, Ian refered to "Islamophobia" as part of the reason the media lost interest once it became clear Israel wasn't involved. He seemed to be Euro centric in this thinking: the real reason was that Muslims themselves have accepted that muslims killing each other is just fine. Sad but true; 3. On the high Palestinians civilian casulties in Israel Gaza operation, I'd be very interested to hear how Ian proposes to fight this war when his enemies intentionally hide amongst the civilians and use the resulting casualties as propoganda tool. I supposed he would shrug and says that Israel should be held to higher standards than common terrorists, and Israelis should just accept that they will never be safe, until miracle happens.

I mostly agree with you. 1 - Yeah, voluntarily electing Hamas, then watching Hamas call off future elections and go nutty anti-Israel for almost 20 years... not a big win for "the Palestinian Cause". 2- It's still disgusting for 'western' media to just go "whelp, that's all right then". 3 - I think Ian believes the war to be a mistake. I know I do. If Israel CAN NOT separate the sheep from the wolves (and you are right that they cannot), they have no business murdering sheep until they run out of wolves. It is inhumane, it is wrong, it is a violation of the Geneva Convention which Israel signed on to. Or do you think a situation like that means the US should have been allowed to nuke Fallujah in Iraq? Should Russia be allowed to nuke part of Ukraine because the locals won't surrender fast enough? If it's wrong in one place, it's wrong in all of them. And I cannot see any way to excuse Israel's willingness to murder civilians these past few months. This is NOT holding Israel to "higher standards than common terrorists". This is holding Israel to the standards when they signed the Geneva Convention in July of 1951... which their actions this year violate. Israel can't have it both ways.

How do you bargain with a culture that appreciate death more than life? What shared values and common ground can we identify to facilitate communication and understanding across cultural divides. Who's got this kind of a power?

Social media too. If this was the 1990s or early 2000s so many ppl wouldn’t be anti Israel

I know these people are both smart, and I like them both, and I know are having a discussion and don't want to correct each other. But SG was talking about Arab states and mentioned Iran first on his list of Arab states, except that Iran is not an Arab state. So I just don't like it when really smart people who know better do stuff like that.

Bremmer is wrong on Ukraine, too. Russia won´t accept a part of Ukraine, it wants to keep going. Incredibly good points in this conversation, but a mistake here and there.
