'Not a single Gazan saved a hostage': World leaders react to slain hostages' release. [100% guilty Arab fakestinians]

[Shusha]

Hey, I'm currently learning Mandarin... doesn't make me Chinese.
And neither is learning a dead language to bolster a fake claim to someone else's land.

You are again avoiding my actual questions due to the fragility of your argument.

What is the relevance of language to ancestry, indigeneity, ethnicity, and culture? You brought it up.

I think the correct term is “White Monkey”

Aka westerners who shill for china

Not at all.

I just don't think that because China has beat us at our own game (a game we encouraged them to play) that makes them an enemy.

Sorry you can't get that through your tiny little mind.

Its communist china’s dream of world hegemony that makes them our enemy

Except they aren't really interested in that.

Come on, except for a few peacekeeping missions, there's not one Chinese boot occupying a foreign country.

I dont expect you to admit it, bit yes they do want world hegemony

Well, they are doing a pretty terrible job at it. All they've managed to take over are some crappy little Islands, and they had to dump a bunch of rocks there to give their guys somewhere to stand.

There is only one island that they really want to take over in the near future and thats Taiwan

And Taiwan is part of China, so not seeing the problem there.

In fact, they speak Mandarin, write in Hanzi, eat Chinese food and even call themselves "the Republic of China".

Sounds like a Chinese thing to me.

 

[JoeB131]

Tibet

Tibet was recogonized as part of China internationally even before they deposed the corrupt theocracy there.

We never had diplomatic relations with Tibet, nor recognized it as a country.

That could describe Americans as compared to the United Kingdom

But we dont belong to them

Because we won a couple of wars, and the UK signed treaties recognizing our independence.

The ROC never won a war; they, in fact, lost several. China never signed a treaty with them recognizing their independence, which they've never claimed, as they are still calling themselves the Republic of China.

Canada is free and they didnt have to wage war against England

More properly it should be called the Chines Empire, since it is made up of many distinct nations, and although it is a state, China, itself, cannot properly be called a nation.

That's not true, there were several revolts before the UK granted them Dominion Status.

Yeah, about that.

China has 56 ethnicities. However, the largest, Han Chinese, makes up 92% of the population.



In fact, one out of five human beings is a Han Chinese, including my wife.

Or maybe only one out of ten in the future

Because the conflict has nothing to do with religion. Back in the 1970's, they were claiming the PLO were all godless commies, when that was what America was afraid of. Now they are all scary Muslim fundamentalists. What they really are a bunch of people who want foreign invaders off their land.

Actually, they are completely inspired by religion. But you want to ignore that. You brought up the claim that Israel is doing what it does because of a book, but won't also say that Muslims are doing what they do because of a different book. Interesting double standard, but not surprising. Your grasp on equity ranks up there with your appreciation of history and facts.

Doesn't really describe what the Zionists did. Look, man, I know you think you cheated the Palestinians fair and square, but no, you just cheated them.

It is as valid as the analogy you tried to draw. But then again, you are trying to justify murder and terrorism so that fits.

Except you don't want to defeat Hamas, you want to erase the Palestinian identity altogether.

Assuming that there exists such a thing as "Palestinian identity" (which I would love to see substantiated as a claim) why do you assume what I want to do about it? You don't know me and yet you have imputed behaviors and thoughts to me. Not a very academic approach.

You've been doing this stuff long before Hamas was ever formed.

You mean "being attacked" yes, we have. Good point.

It was a dead language that had to be resurrected so Zionists could pretend they have national identity, instead of just sweeping up all the refuse of Europe.

You don't know that Hebrew was a language of literary and scholarly expression throughout the ages? Or that it was used as a common language for Jews from disparate places? Wow...you really don't get out much, do you?

If the Palestinians were inspired by the "Book", then when the Caliph of Islam called on them to fight the British, they would have gone on a Jihad.

Instead, they sided with the British on the promise of independence. And the British promptly screwed them by trying to colonize the place with Jews from Europe.

I see that kvetching is still an art form.

Don't use words you don't understand.
