From a victim of a real ethnic cleansing. Compare this to 'even Israel has condemned China' fake genocide activists. 'Even Israel'! It's one thing to protest against China's Xinjiang policy, but to suggest that the Uyghur experience in Xinjiang was so much worse than the Palestinian experience in Gaza that 'even Israel' condemned it? Awful.

Seriously a crazy case of pride before the fall is occurring right now. Nothing less than total destruction for the Israeli military forces is ever going to make these people see reason. Dancing on someone’s red line is never going to produce a positive result especially when both of the main recipients of this dance has the means to hurt you back and has the patience to wait
If words could hurt, China would be dead 100 times already by all that constant West media propaganda against it. Instead, China goes from strength to strength

So, Israel can call Taiwan "friend" all it wants, but the juggernaut called PRC gets stronger by the minute while Israel is down there bleeding its national comprehensive power.

Random thoughts on Saturday:

We are witnessing yet another pivotal moment in world affairs: Biden and Xi coming "party" during APEC in San Francisco.

Amid Ukraine stalemate and Gaza wild fire, US needs China, period. That is the primary reason western MSM news on China lately are moderate. There is much less demonizing in the news media. "Coming collapse of China" is much slower than Gordon's aging speed. So I bet the San Francisco meeting is on.

It is about time. And it is also showing to the world that China is the same China in the last 2000 years. Chinese leaders are mature and pragmatic. World peace still is the most preferred state of the world affairs.

EU+UK will be in a more awkward position. When US and China are talking numbers and heads, the rest of the west can only such their sour thumbs. And they would be asking for it in the last few years.

Ukraine situation is more resembling the 38th parallel. If Israel does get into Gaza, I expect that Taiwan DPP will lost the coming general election. Otherwise, there will be too many downsides to US and Israel. For the moment, US is desperate in not agitating China toward any crisis over Taiwan.

Huge difference between the Modi regime and its people:

This pretty much guarantees that the surviving next generation will be extremely "antisemitic" and Israel will be trapped in a long-term conflict it can ill afford.
The Palestinian strategy against Israel is aimed at destroying Israel’s capacity to survive in its present state in a long war.

This means attacking the invincibility of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and theur so-called Iron Dome defence; this began with the cross-border offensive on October 7, and continues with daily drone and artillery attacks on targets inside Israel, as well as resistance to IDF incursions in Gaza.

The plan also means exposing the weakness of the state’s infrastructure and economy; extending the battlefield across all of Israel’s territory – the ports, power plants and electricity grid, communications, and financial markets — making the cost of occupation of the Arab territories unendurable. In a long war, two of Israel’s leading exports earning more than 40% of the state’s trade — diamonds and tourism — face ruin.*

Diplomatic games are pretty funny sometimes:
XJP Thought photo op with Netanyahu a few months ago

View attachment 120710
Natanyahu used to have amiable personality but Mideast politics are very corrosive and you can observe it from the Israeli statements.
Natanyahu squandered alot of credibility by not standing with Trump. do you think these Gulf Arabs will deal with him in favorable way when Trump called him unreliable. Gulf Arabs expected that Israeli will be more effective in dealing with Turkey, Iran and Europe for there purpose. no one write these things but you can observe it in indirect way.

Putin released this Israeli American to enhance Netanyahu status.

Second, in Israel we touched upon some issues related to our region. We held talks with our American friends, and I can tell you about some things that are linked with this.

Third, I would like to thank you on behalf of the entire Israeli nation for your quick decision to release Naama Issachar. This has touched us all, and the gratitude of all Israeli people comes from the bottom of our hearts.

Mr President, you are the first world leader with whom I am meeting and speaking after my visit to Washington and after the unveiling of the
