Unfortunately, the U.S. is not the only country that expands its business ties with Israel. China has been increasing its ties with Israel in the recent decade, too. In the meantime, Israel imports from China are even more than twice the volume imports from the U.S.
Yeah but trading with a country is different from using it as a geostrategic asset. The Anglosphere has used Israel as a wedge in the Middle East to ensure that it can not be stable, which they figure would be a catastrophe. (A stable Middle East would control a huge portion of the world’s trade, plus a huge portion of vital resources.)
It’s possible that China will just inherit this strategy from the United States if it becomes the preeminent superpower, just like the United States inherited it from Great Britain. But it’s possible that the Chinese will think differently, plus two things will be geopolitically different in the coming decades: the Arctic sea is opening up and oil is becoming much less important than it has been.
China has always been pursing its own policy also in the Middle East. A major point here is exactly to use Israel as a’geostrategic asset’ if you want to put it that way. The Chinese government prefers to deal with and supports autocratic regimes, negates the rule of law, as it can then better undermine the country.
Cameras made by Hikvision … blanket the occupied West Bank, according to Amnesty International … Based in Hangzhou, China, the company is one of the world’s largest makers of video surveillance equipment. Already infamous among international human rights groups, it has been blacklisted by the US and identified by the UK as a security threat for being complicit in China’s repression of the Uyghur ethnic minority …
The report is newly relevant in the weeks after the 7 October [2023] Hamas attacks that the Israeli government said killed 1,400 people. Since then, settlers have escalated their violence against West Bank Palestinians and the Israeli army has conducted raids in West Bank cities and refugee camps.
Hikvision has marketed facial-recognition features that would, it claimed, automatically detect Uyghur people. It has also advertised features meant to discern any person’s ethnicity, age and race based on an image of their face.
This is only one example. There are more similar reports regarding Chinese surveillance tech and other products and services sold to autocratic regimes worldwide to enhance ‘business ties’ …
What’s that you need us to rape little children so you can get compromat on the rich and powerful, sure man sure
You want to gain access to all our technology and secrets so you can get compromat on us, no problem the whole Jonathan pollard affair was unsightly sorry that punishing your spy embarrassed you, it can’t happen again because you get everything now and we get nothing in return and we will pay for it

In Israel, the Chinese Communist Party has been supporting exactly for what its propaganda is accusing the only the West: the genocide in the West Bank and in Gaza. It’s a dehumanizing and disturbing symbiosis that a Chinese firm linked to repression of Uyghurs aids Israeli surveillance in West Bank,
Here is the original report by Amnesty.

Thanks, wasn’t aware that the video surveillance equipment comes from China, but of course it does.
