At least nine Palestinians have been killed and more than 40 wounded in the ongoing operation, according to the Ramallah-based Palestinian health ministry, which Israel has dubbed “Operation Iron Wall.””
No, the ICC has no authority in China as they aren’t a member state, for them use you Article II of the UN Genocide convention, for which they meet the definition quite aptly:
https://worldwithoutgenocide.org/genocides-and-conflicts/background-and-overview-information/united-nations-convention-on-the-prevention-and-punishment-of-genocide
"Article II of the convention defines genocide as ANY of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group, as such:
(a) Killing members of the group. ✅
(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group. ✅
© Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part. ✅
(d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group. ✅
(e) Forcibly transferring children of one group to another group." ✅
This doesn’t apply to Biden and Gaza as it’s ISRAEL committing acts A-E, not the United States.
(a) Show me the Uyghur bodies
(b) Show me the serious bodily or mental harm
(c) Show me the conditions calculated to bring about physical destruction in whole or in part
(d) Show me the measures intended to prevent births within the group
(e) Show me the forcible transfer of children from one group to another group
All you have are a couple of photos of prisons, which proves nothing, and some garbage testimonies that we’ve debunked a thousand fucking times already.
If the terrorism that the CIA-backed religious extremists brought down on Xinjiang happened in America, the US government would have come down on them a thousand times worse than how China handled them. This is obvious by simply looking at how the US handled 9/11, or by looking at US incarceration rates compared to China, or any other country in the world for that matter.
This was a failed attempt by the US government to balkanize/peel off Western China, and now the US is trying to make lemonade out of their lemon by accusing China of genocide.
No one seems to be interested in your Council on Foreign Relations hasbara.
