Today, Israel carried out an airstrike against the China-Iran railway, marking the first direct attack on a key strategic asset of China’s Belt and Road Initiative.
BDS is modeled on methods that were successful in overthrowing South African apartheid. They worked then.
I believe the more important force here was the organized, militant resistance of the South African working class and oppressed masses. China is offering help in that department already.
Boycotts will not work against Israel though. Israel is deeply integrated into global capitalism, in technology, military hardware, cybersecurity, and finance.
Unlike apartheid South Africa, which was largely a raw materials exporter and therefore more vulnerable to disinvestment.
The US, Germany, and the UK actively shield Israel diplomatically and economically, providing billions in military aid and trade deals that offset boycott effects.
Yes, several, none of the large important ones though. Syria, Lebanon, and Iran, even prior to the current conflict, have no trade with Israel.
Duh. Not the point. Obviously the direct victims of the genocidal entity won’t trade with said entity just for national security reasons alone.
I don’t believe Cuba or the DPRK do either.
Is the DPRK even allowed to trade with anyone other than China and Russia? Afaik they are sanctioned and blocked by the US and no one can even trade with the DPRK.
The point is to disrupt the settler project. Israelis are the biggest treatlerites on the planet, making Americans look like they’ve contentedly taken a vow of poverty. If you disrupt the treats, it becomes a lot harder to get settlers to stay. If China supplies 8% of consumer goods that’s a large portion of the treats.
That obviously won’t be allowed to happen. Do you genuinely think that the settlers and reserve army are just allowed to leave their station? America is calling the shots here. It would just be made illegal to leave and i will be honest, I don’t think the settler civillians would leave anyway because they are too invested in Israel.
Israel tiny country! Size of New Jersey!
Did you actually think i meant physical size?😭😭
Well I just fundamentally disagree with your analysis here
The fuck you mean “my analysis”? They literally told us over multiple decades that Israel is their most important project. Biden famously said over his entire career that, if Israel didn’t exists, they would need to invent it.
Like, how can you look at the entire situation right now and not conclude that the west asian region (“middle east”) is very important to control and that Israel is obviously the most vital part in that plan?
I think Israel causes the west far more trouble than it’s worth and is not even helpful for our imperial ambitions, along with causing internal collapse in the imperial core.
God, whenever i switch to Hexbear threads, the quality of analysis just plummets hard.
Mf actually just said that that Israel, the imperialist settler nation created by Germany, UK and the US, is not helpful for their imperial ambitions. Why tf do you think they burn so much money and political goodwill of their own people for Israel? Shits and giggles?
Israel is the last hope of the US to still have hegemony in their claws. These attacks are not random, but rather the US believing that the point of no return is about to be crossed by China and Iran and that they need to act now or fully lose their hegemony and imperial control.
The strait of Hormuz is closed because of Israel. Oil is approaching $200 a barrel because of Israel. Europeans are going to freeze to death this winter, because of Israel.
America started this war and genocide. Israel is not to be seen as an independent force. You clearly fell for the “israel is controlling US” propaganda. Please tell me you at least don’t believe that Israel is controlling trump via the epstein files😭
The Palestinians have asked for this. BDS is a Palestinian movement, and this is in fact what they ask for.
Cool. Didn’t ask about them though. China is only working via official channels to keep important diplomatic ties alive and as far as i know, the official “state” has not asked for any such thing. Even if they did, China can’t do much because of all the other reasons i mentioned
Again, China intervening more than they have already, would be seen as acts of war. Any sanction against Israel is innefective due to the aforementioned protection from the west and any effective sanction would need to include those countries as well.
I, again, hope that i do not need to tell you why that would be disastrous.
Any Hexbear thread of China devolves into people just going "Hey, why doesn’t China just casually start WW3?)
