On Thursday, the spokeswoman of the Foreign Ministry of the People’s Republic of China, Mao Ning, demonstrated Beijing’s support for the addition of Palestine to the UN. ⠀

The spokeswoman also called for the United Nations not to delay the decision any longer and to take action to stop the genocide and end the bloodshed as soon as possible. ⠀

On the other hand, the United States said it will not accept Palestine’s request until a comprehensive agreement is reached with its ally, Israel.

Right because Palestine has suffered a century of oppression from a hostile foreign invasion that has countless times over stronger military strength, leading to their isolation and abuse by their authoritarian rulers who constantly raid, beat, murder, rape, and force them into labor camps purely due to religious division.

Oops wait, that's Tibet.

Jokes aside, though, whataboutism is bad and I would support Palestine getting a recognized statehood, if they could form some sort of government first.
