A traveller in love with the chaos and wonder of life, and an interest in many things, particularly geo-politics. #socialjustice for all. #antiwar #antiimperialism . Those who blindly follow Western propaganda narratives are requested to stay away, as I prefer to deal with people of at least some intellect, even when we disagree. And please note, liking or boosting does NOT always signify agreement, but rather that the post is of interest.

Trouble with the #Zionist colonisation of #Palestine was brewing in 1921.

"The South African government has said it is “deeply disturbed” about the unfolding developments in Gaza and is “horrified” by the Israeli military’s announcement that it would operate in Rafah with “extreme force.”"

Israeli officials claim there is NO delay to arms shipments from the US, contrary to claims in Axios that 2 shipments were deliberately delayed by Washington.
He said: "The stream of security shipments from the #US to #Israel is ongoing. While individual shipments might be delayed, the overall flow remains uninterrupted, and we are not aware of any policy suspending it."

Ah, "paid by China" - the old fallback position for those lacking the intellect to examine events critically. Resorting to ad hominem, the favoured tactic of dickheads and trolls.

1. The West doesn't "protect democracy" anywhere.
2. #Taiwan is not a country, it is a province of #China.
Note that over 90% of Taiwanese are ethnic Han, & speak the same language as the mainland, have family in both places, often visit / study / travel /work in the mainland. Yes, there is a small minority of left overs from China's civil war who have never forgiven the mainland. Yes, there are US funded individuals and organisations in that minority.

Please note those protests in #China against Covid lockdowns were successful. The Govt responded quickly. No one was jailed or even charged for protesting. (Democracy in action - unlike US campus protests today).
I note #US Human Rights Watch lacks credibility re China, being largely funded by a list of Sinophobic, neo-lib warmongers on the planet, including George Soros' Open Society Foundation.

1. People are allowed to organise and protest about policies in China. And they do. The Covid lockdown was ended by people power. The only "pro-democracy" activists arrested are those who are funded / schooled by the West. The US has a similar law (FARA). And please note, your source - Wikipedia - is not reknowned for its objectivity in political matters.

We know tens of thousands have been murdered by #Israel in #Gaza. But there are many more bodies buried underneath the rubble. https://www.palestinechronicle.com/10000-palestinians-missing-amid-gaza-genocide-urgent-crisis-of-decomposing-bodies/

You keep demonstrating your ignorance about China, which is also a democratic Govt, despite what you have been told from birth by Western media.

Yes, China & Norway are still (sadly) involved in fossil fuels. But they are consistent leaders in the transition away from these. And the point I was making is that a country where the system of governance supports long-term planning is far more likely to support such a transition rather than governance via a short-term electoral cycle system, as exists in much of the West. https://www.euronews.com/green/2024/04/17/wind-energy-saw-record-growth-in-2023-which-countries-installed-the-most

The "market" has proven to be remarkably disinterested in anything which does not promise short-term profits. It seems clear that those Govts NOT under the control of unfettered capitalism and a greedy plutocracy (eg China and Norway) are able to better address long-term issues.
