China’s foreign minister said Saturday that Israel has gone too far in responding to last week’s invasion by Hamas, China’s official news agency reported.

Speaking to Saudi Arabian Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said Israel’s actions have extended beyond self-defense.

According to Xinhua, China has an interest in helping resolve the conflict and the underlying issues involving the Palestinian population.

Not saying that's right, but at least they didn't bomb the camps...

I think if they felt the need to they would have. China and Israel's government both place about the same value on the lives of people who get in their way, China is just a lot more self conscious about its international image.

There's also the issue of the potential mass organ harvesting from people in China's "Reeducation Camps"

Yes, I remember when I learned about it, I was shook to the core... The harvesting of organs was cherry on top, absolute horror...

Same thing everywhere, dehumanise a people and they're just chicken in cages. God knows we've been far down that route

It’s apparent some believe silent torture is more civilised than bombs.

They are both horrifying forms of genocide.
