Well, as Comrade Zelda might say:

Good.

    Might be true which is nice but could also be full cap and just a way for the colonizers to try and abuse China with more sanctions. The IOF is desperate since they are losing tanks faster than Ukraine did and refuse to have infantry support due to fear of mass casualties.

      I hope they try, at what pace China is best able to deal with it, of course. I hope the west continues to self-own, to further isolate itself and inspire self-sufficiency and true de-risking from western industries, etc. until it topples over and collapses.

    I'm skeptical of this especially given the source. It sounds in the same vein as when they claimed China was subjecting them to endless paperwork for trade of dual-use technology. Then when you read into it more, Chinese officials just started looking more closely at paperwork being filed which makes sense, why would they want to be complicit in the genocide willingly.

    I think this is just an extension of the consent manufacturing about China big bad that needs to be defeated. Pretty expected for a US puppet state.

      I wouldn’t call that a lie. It’s good to point out that it was just enforcement of existing rules, but it’s still an act of purpose, and a based one at that.

        I more so meant the reporting of it pushed the narrative that they were being subjected to a large burden of paperwork that hasn't been present in the past.

        My bad on not being super clear on that point.

    Arming any side of the conflict honestly doesn't sound like something China would do. They will be the first in line to try to mediate, they would censure Israel for their war crimes, but I don't really see them arming anyone.

    It feels like a way to drum up anti-China sentiment. That may backfire though honestly, Israel is far too unpopular worldwide for this to galvanize people to want to fight China. Anyone who buys this as an excuse to attack China was already onboard with the idea and didn't need to be convinced.

      Frankly, they may possibly be arming the Communist Party of Burma, according to my friend in Myanmar.

      Actually, my friend is in Laos, but close to the border, I think.

    Not a single weapon I have seen used by the red triangle heroes in videos is Chinese. Perhaps they are just embarrassed by indigenous resistance despite getting helped by every major western power including dual citizenship personnel.

    I could be wrong, but that's what I have observed. I am sure some OSINT dudes (OSINT just seems to mean white supremacist lately) would beg to differ.
