China blames the US for failure on ceasefire as war on Gaza nears 1 year

“Had the US not shielded one side time and again, multiple resolutions of this Council would not have been flagrantly rejected and defied,” Chinese Ambassador, Geng Shuang told the UN Security Council on Monday.

Urging the US to “show a responsible attitude”, Geng called on Washington to “use the significant influence it holds over the party, and take tangible actions to push Israel to cease its military operations without delay, as demanded by the Council resolutions, to give the long-suffering Palestinian people a chance to live.”

Yeah, for once I agree with China. The second Israel started blowing away kids and hospitals, it should have been full stop + sanctions from the USA.

Well we know for a fact that the US doesn't even care about our own children dying. Why would we care about ones on the other side of the planet?

And we keep trying to reduce medical coverage and public funding for healthcare. Hospitals are being closed all over the US.

To be honest, it's on brand.

US blows away kids and hospitals too, seems that little brother just learned from the big one.

Sure, but it's pretty naive to ask them for sanctioning their own unsinkable carrier made by them in their image.

I don't think it's naive. It's the view of almost every nation in the world

And it's not happened for 80 years no matter what Israel do and it's certainly not happening in the last year of intensified genocide. It's either naive or insincere empty words without actions. The only state with correct stance on this is Yemen.

I don't think it's insincere at all. Most nations would like the US to not support Genocide but none of them have the power to force the US to do anything

On the contrary, they all have all the power, just no political will because the calculations are pointing even now, on giant losses they will also suffer in case of let's say embargo on US, and not unlikely case of US launching WW3 in such situation. Still they aren't saying that straight and are insincere, even if understandable.

Yeah, but all that AIPAC money would have dried up, so instead we'll tell them to play nice with these new weapons and American tax payer subsidies.

Why fund hospitals at home when you can blow them up abroad?!

Really is annoying to have to agree with the Chinese on human rights abuses.

Maybe the US is lying to you about China in other areas too? Israel and the US (and Britain) have been killing Arabs for decades. Are they to be trusted when telling you their enemies are doing the same?

We have seen the evidence for the things happening at places like the Chinese Uyghur internment camps directly, it's not a claim where we have to trust a government without any proof.

Don't worry, you can turn right around and parrot NED blood libel without a hint of irony or dissonance.

When China rightfully has to call you out on your bullshit, then you know you're on the wrong side

Do they realistically expect israel to stockpile all the weapons theyre given as opposed to using them?
