Politics, policies & power: John Mearsheimer’s blunt analysis | Centre Stage (youtube.com)

The Israel Lobby means it makes no diffrerence if it's T ot H. It also doesn't matter if it's Netanyahu or another.

The Palestinians don't have a lot of allies. The Houthis and Hezbollah. Jordan doesn't have power to do much, and is dependent on the US. The Russians are a player, working with Iran.

‘The Middle East is not going to be a peaceful region for a long time.’

‘If public opinion in the West governed how Western leaders deal with Israel over Gaza and over the West Bank, we would have a fundamentally different policy. But up at the elite level the elites remain almost 100% committed to supporting Israel no matter what.’

...

Next year, a sunset clause in the US-Mexico trade agreement comes up, so US could say they want Mexico to have less of a relationship with China in order to continue terms. ... Or US might decide to trade with China again, which would sort of cut Mexico out of the US supply chain.

Mexico is currently very left, 2 seats shy of absolute majority which is what would be required to change the constitution.
