The ongoing war in Gaza has prompted debates in Malaysia and elsewhere in Southeast Asia over what is seen there as the West's moral decline for not having more forcefully condemned Israeli actions.

Gotta love Germans

The incident has reignited debates within Southeast Asia about the West's alleged moral decline for not having more forcefully condemned Israeli actions in Gaza.

I can't believe how obviously hypocritical this is. As if the issue we have with the west is the rhetoric isn't to our liking and not that the west is actively funding and providing weapons to facilitate a genocide. Nobody gives a shit if you "more forcefully condemn" the genocide. Just stop doing it and we'll be happy.
