If China is so concerned about the problem in Gaza, why are they getting on Israel to stop retaliation for their human losses and not the Palestinian authority? Not their place any more than ours. And civilians there are just as guilty of supporting Hamas a the leaders. They allow it.
As for the US response”
““As I said in Tel Aviv, as President Biden has said, the way that Israel does this matters. It needs to do it in a way that affirms the shared values that we have for human life and human dignity, taking every possible precaution to avoid harming civilians,” he added.”
Didn’t we bomb warehouses, factories, and civilian controlled areas in WW II in Nazi Germany? When the United States began flying bombing missions against Germany, it reinforced British efforts. The Allies attacked oil installations, and controversial firebombings took place against Hamburg (1943), Dresden (1945), and other German cities.
We also bombed Hanoi in a conflict that was not a war. More than 20,000 tons of ordnance was dropped on military and industrial areas in Hanoi and Haiphong and at least 1,624 civilians were killed. The operation was the final major military operation carried out by the U.S. during the conflict, and the largest bombing campaign involving heavy bombers since World War II. We also hit Iraq and areas in Kuwait. The list is endless. Pot/kettle.

If a wider war includes southern Lebanon it’s too late. Don’t forget Iran positions in Syria. Gonna be awesome.
It’s only money and weapons.
Don’t think I’d be too eager to take China’s advice about what Israel should do over there. They could probably get about the same advice from the Palestinians.
