and if both-sidesing it stops working for whatever reason, China would side with Israel

I doubt that, because Israel's economy relies on Chinese trade far more than the other way around and siding with Israel in a situation where "both sides" is no longer an option would likely destroy their political relationships with a huge portion of the third world.

The only situation I can think of where "both sides" is no longer an option would be a world war. Siding with Israel would mean siding with Amerikkka, and that option is clearly not possible for China and would be a terrible, self-destructive move even if it was.

Yeah a world war was the case Hasan suggested today where China would side with Israel.

China is siding with Russia, who is siding with Iran

Yea siding with Russia or not entering at all are both infinitely more likely than joining on Israel's side

Hasan has some great takes and has done a great job covering this issue but i wouldnt give to much weight to some geopolitical speculation he made during a stream. This one is easy to prove how unlikely it is. Any world war involving China and the US will see them in opposing sides. Israel will de facto be on the US side. SO China will be on the opposing side of Israel. SImple

I wish I could say Hasan never misses but then I’d be wrong
