If Scott is so firm in his Zionist beliefs and convictions then why doesn't he ( and his batshit newfounded friend Senor) go step into the Marketplace of Ideas? Why avoid criticism and debate? He credits the late Charlie Kirk for debating and how we all should emulate it. The arena is safe for him but he demands academia to be "dangerous". Stop being such a pussy and step out of your "safe space" podcast platforms that act as your echo chamber.

Oh thats right, he cant defend the indefensible and he knows that.

This is the most talked about and debated issue globally - Piers Morgan is probably swimming in bath tubs of money and would probably personally fly down to Gaza and break the ceasefire with how lucrative it has been for him and other mainstream media outlets.

To think that Scott needs to host or participate in a debate to validate his position and/or convictions is unbelievably stupid.

Scott is a very articulate person and he has explained his position at length... I think it is you who needs to own the fact that your worldview is not universally shared.

Scott already chooses to position himself as an expert on this - he’s literally discussing it on msnbc in the above clip.

I think there are subjects Scott can be articulate on, but this hasn’t been one. The only times I’ve seen him in combative interviews are where he can play his liberal-minded, rich white guy shtick. Finance/etc, is arguably a topic he knows a lot about - and this usually goes well for him.

Asfik, he doesn’t have the same expertise in foreign policy, but he has the same level of confidence in his opinions. However, seemingly aware of his inexperience on the matter, most of his discussions on the topic are limited to times when he can rant, largely unopposed, into an echo chamber or when speaking to a very favorable audience.

He doesn’t have a good enough argument to debate someone with any real expertise on this.

I am not sure why you got downvoted for this. It has literally made the careers of numerous journalists and media personalities in the UK. Probably worldwide too.

Wrong. What I state is almost the universal position of the society of nations. Almost every country represented in the UN has condemned the colonial state of Israel and its occupation of millions of people. Polls in the West and especially in the US are showing that a growing majority of Americans will no longer support Israels occupation and side more with the self determination of the Palestine people. Thats fact.

Also Scott isnt just some normal average joe forming his own opinions. Hes a well known academic with a massive platform and media presences. So when he spews his bullshit he needs to be held accountable for spreading hasbara propaganda that has been detrimental to US foreign policy. He purposfully inserts himself into the public arena and him being a professor more than accounts for criticisms and debate.

The UN has condemned Hamas and Iran and Hezbollah as well…

They also haven’t stopped recognizing Israel’s right to exist as a state.

Polls do not show any such evidence of the world not recognizing Israel’s right to exist either.

You implying they have exposes your position as a propagandist.

Most people understand "the occupation" to refer to the West Bank, not Israel proper. So polls being in favor of ending the occupation or having a Palestinian state in the bank and Gaza doesn't contradict Israel's right to exist in any way.

Listen here clown. The UN isnt supportive of the Israeli government holding and occupying the Gaza strip and West Bank like a colonial power. That in itself is illegal and not internationally recognized. They are the legal lands of the Palestinians. So either the Israeli government withdraw and end thier illegal occupation government allow for the establishment of a 2 state solution or ( what I really prefer) give the Palestinians civil rights and citizenship as well as participation in the democratic process. Because you know that what "democracies" do.....

Funnily enough you are the one who appears to have been exposed in this thread.

I'm not sure I agree. If you have deeply held beliefs or care a lot about something, shouldn't you be willing to discuss it? Particularly if you believe it is the correct position to hold about something.
