In a tweet, the embassy said “we have hoped that the times of the ‘Jew’s controlling the world’ conspiracy theories were over, unfortunately anti-Semitism has shown its ugly face again.” […]

On the Tuesday CGTN broadcast, host Zheng Junfeng questioned whether U.S. support for Israel was truly based on shared democratic values, saying “some people believe that U.S. pro-Israeli policy is traceable to the influence of wealthy Jews in the U.S. and the Jewish lobby on U.S. foreign policy makers.”

It’s also the same country sending lots of workers to replace Indian, South Asian and Southeast Asian labor on the Middle East.

So the Middle East regimes absolutely love the Communist Chinese (cheaper labor)

It’s actually an ethnic minority they’re doing it to, that being the Turkic Uighurs. AFAICR they’re leaving the Hui alone, who are Mahometan but Han Chinese.

Yeah, unfortunately. Maybe the US can force/pressure Israel to cancel the lease like was done in Long Beach.

Dang, Israel.

How about taking on, then vanquishing, one enemy at a time instead of all of them at once.

Maybe your faith in YHWH is bigger than my mustard seed-sized faith in the Lord God Almighty???
