    I dont think China wants to make the first move. America is starting to create an uprising in the middle east right now by keeping israel’s genocide going which could be an actual catalyst. When America is busy elsewhere China will likely try to annex Taiwan.

      Russia will invade a NATO country, then China will invade Taiwan when its NATO vs Russia.

        This is fantastic stuff.
        So if we’re talking about the broader picture, i.e. Hamas being a product of Israeli policy, then we must talk only about what has gone on since Oct 7th. But if we want to talk specifically about the genocide on the Palestinians in Gaza that’s been happening since Oct 7th, we must instead focus on the 80 years before that date.
        Fantastic stuff.

          Yup. Kinda like how if we focus on genocide, which let me be clear I think is a perfectly reasonable issue to be a single issue voter over, we’re accused of being a single issue voter. But if we list other things too just to get the point across then we’re entitled children who are just angry we didn’t get everything we wanted.

          Fantastic stuff indeed.

            If the single issue is something as monumental as genocide, or climate change then I don’t think the accusation of being a single issue voter is one that needs any defense. Yes, I’m voting on this single issue, because it’s that important to me. It’s not parking tickets, immigration quotas or marginal welfare claims, it’s THE FUCKING FUTURE OF THE HUMAN RACE.
            It’s not idealistic or naive in any way to be insistent on topics like these. The opposite is true: it’s jaded and cynical to treat them as merely political.

        What’s the math here? 1 bombed Palestinian becomes 5?

          They count the pieces individually as war victims. And if a seperated foot doesn’t hold a gun then he is obviously a civilian foot.

        The number of Jews in concentration camps increased thousands fold during WW2. This must mean they were having babies like hamsters in there right?

        If you don’t understand what “forced migration” is where israel ethnically cleanses Palestinians from Palestine into the Gaza area, close your Wikipedia page. You are not fit to interpret numbers

        Currently the south of Gaza has a massive population increase. Palestinians must be having a lot of babies there according to you. It can’t be that there is forced migration going on from the North to the South right?
