China’s foreign minister said Saturday that Israel has gone too far in responding to last week’s invasion by Hamas, China’s official news agency reported.
Speaking to Saudi Arabian Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said Israel’s actions have extended beyond self-defense.
According to Xinhua, China has an interest in helping resolve the conflict and the underlying issues involving the Palestinian population.
Because the Chinese government treats Muslims so well, right?
I wonder what they would do if the Uyghurs revolted… oh wait, we do know, we have precedent, just look how they treated their students.

cocks my block button
I am tired of “arguing” with them (it’s not an argument in my head if it’s bad faith)
So I usually call them a fucktard tankie and block them at this point
The US calls out something bad and people point out the hypocrisy: “wHaTaBoUtIsM”
Comments for this post:
I’m very inclined to ignore West Taiwan’s position on matters of ethics and morality.
China is suggesting Uyghur style genocide instead. I misspoke I meant “reducation”
At the “start” of this, I didn’t really have an opinion. But that’s mostly due to lack of knowledge and the complexity of the issue.
I was initially siding with Israel as they were hit first, but their response has made me rethink things.
I’m still really undecided and am unqualified to make an opinion anyway.
“As they were hit first.”
Whooboy. You have to go far, far, far back in history, buddy.
People were on TV news saying the Israelis are like Native Americans getting their land back 🤣🤣🤣
The graphs here go to 2008 and the situation has been going on for decades before that
I was initially siding with Israel as they were hit first, but their response has made me rethink things.
To generalize this out to other wars and conflicts, even regular old arguments, there are almost always pre-existing conditions and tensions leading up to the first major attack. Even things like WWI, where the catalyst was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. But there is quite obviously more to the atmosphere, national ambitions, etc. etc. that make it so that the separatists wanted to assassinate him, and make it so that Austria-Hungary wanted to invade Serbia and used this as an excuse. A war would have happened anyway, no matter who attacked first.
The fact that you consider yourself unqualified to make an opinion probably makes you more qualified to do so than 95% of the idiots out there whose opinions are already firmly established.
“Before the Hamas incursion and subsequent Israeli military response, it was believed that Israel and Saudi Arabia, driven by a common animus toward Iran, were working toward a normalization of relations, a development that could have shifted the dynamic in the Middle East.”
Who wants the dynamic in the Middle East to remain unchanged?

What is there’s to like, really?
As long as Hamas still actively holds hostages its fair game.
