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.

    China was involved in the conference, so I dont think they felt left out of the party they were present at. Manufacturer identification is older than barrel id. Barrel id is matching a specific bullet to a specific gun.

    … Every country makes its own database, honey. There isnt a single database. This isnt a video game, its the real world.

      Bingo and as I said over and over China didn’t invest a lot into this. So they didn’t have the data to trace. It’s not rocket science.

      *Edit: Also, it’s not like I said they couldn’t trace anything. I said they could trace to type at the time, but not as detailed as manufacturer. You’d need enough data to do that and they didn’t think it was important to collect to that level.

        They went to a conference in 1933 to directly invest in this, so I think they knew it just fine.

        You seem to think manufacturer id is harder than gun barrel id. Manufacturer id is very easy, thats what was pioneered in the 20s.

        If china could do barrel id (which they could, like everyone else) they could do manufacturer id.

          If they had the gun. Which they don’t. I’ve also said that again and again. They needed the gun to match the barrel and bullet.

          *Edit: Matching to barrel is also different than matching to type. They only kept enough to match to type unless they had the gun in question.

            Why dont they? They killed everyone at the protest. How did those terrorists lose, but magically vanish away their weaponry?

            And, also, no, if they had any piece of the weapon they could id its manufacturer.

            Matching type is matching manufacturer. Thats what the type is. The manufacturing is the part that makes the gun denting and burning identifiable. Youre pulling this out of your ass because you dont understand how this works.

              Lol, god so you admit what I was saying

              And, also, no, if they had any piece of the weapon they could id its manufacturer.

              Yes, I know this, in fact I’ve been saying it over and over if they had the gun. But no they didn’t go around digging through the corpses to find all the data. Again, I get that YOU want them to, but they didn’t. And again, this is why China just says fuck you. Because it’s none of your god damn business what they choose to do. They chose to sweep up everything as quickly as possible and return things to normal, not go out of their way to hunt the protestors. China isn’t as revenge obsessed as Americans.

                Bullets are part of the weapon, sweetheart.

                I know you think china still shits in buckets, but they arent living in mideval times. They werent a century behind the rest of the world.

                And they absolutely dont shrug and excuse a terror attack, thats a fucking laughable claim.

                Just admit you made up the terrorists bud

                  Oh wow, I just realized you optimize American ignorance.

                  After Tiananmen, the Chinese government realized their mistakes and instead of spending agonizing time to find all the assailants, they decided instead to reform. They spent the next decades doing capitalist reforms and trying to improve everyone’s lives after that incident leading to today where China is unquestionably just behind USA.

                  After Jan 6th, US decided the best thing to do with it’s time is to hunt down everyone at the Jan 6th riots. Creating a massive divide in the country. Causing friends and family to turn on each other. Because hunting down the rioters was more important to them than fixing the actual issues at hand.

                  You see this in the HK riots too. China only arrested the leaders, they let everyone else go. They aren’t interested in identify exactly who did what, they know that cutting off the head is enough.

                  But then, that’s the difference between western and eastern thought. Westerners are so individualistic they obsess over every individual. Eastern thought is that if we see something like this, there must be something structurally wrong and we need to fix it.

                  And I’ll say again, after these riots is when China reformed and changed their laws, not hunt down individuals. Where as in the US, the Americans say their laws are absolute and they need to hunt down every individual.

                  *Edit: And while you may not agree with China’s law changes and say they’re oppressive, the simple reality is, when China sees structural issues like this, they’re open to change.

                    So you are claiming that after china was attacked by terrorists, they didnt look at all to find out if another attack was coming?

                    Since, historically, terror attacks happen in waves? Multiple attacks within a few weeks or months?

                    Youre saying china did zero research or investigation to try and prevent further terror attacks? They were okay with more attacks happening? No attempt to find the ringleaders?
