> The genocide in Gaza is not "sponsored" by the "west". US, maybe.
Well, Hamas was for decades sponsored by entire West via UNRWA while their "from the river to the sea" slogan is as clearly expressed intent to commit genocide as one can wish for.
I think you mean sponsored by the UN, whose largest voting block is the "Organization of Islamic countries" and whose second largest voting block is the "Non-Aligned movement" (that really means aligned with Moscow). There's overlap, for example, Iran is in both camps (fitting since it's a theocracy and both the Iranian government and the parent organization of Hamas, the muslim brotherhood, was greatly grown and sponsored by/with the help of the KGB during the cold war. Perhaps also relevant: the PA's original leader, Yasser Arafat El-Masri (translates to: The wise Egyptian) was an Egyptian KGB spy and was sponsored by Moscow with at least a billion dollars)
Well yes, the history of Arab-Israeli conflict is fascinating. Sadly those who shout "Gaza Genocide" seem incapable of even thinking of reading up on the topic.
Non-aligned is China nowadays for what it's worth, given that UN turned into complete irrelevance, only thing left for them to do being grift.
