Why is no one talking about this?
I don’t understand how people are even going to work. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills and everyone else must be normal. But it can’t be. How can this be treated so blasé by so many people?
i thought it was just me feeling this way. just feel sick to my stomach whenever i open internet.
I wish I could read Chinese.
NOTE: I have like a fourth grade level of education in Chinese and I stopped half way through since I have a doctor’s appointment.
Unified Proclamation on the Palestine Question by China and Arab Countries May 30, 2024: Following the beginning of the 10th Minister Level China - Arab Countries Cooperation Forum, Both parties entered deep discussions over the Palestine Question. Both Parties agree relevant resolutions by the UN Security Council and the UN General Assembly (including UN Security Council Resolution number 2728) must reach comprehensive, effective, realization; and that we should jointly work towards pushing for an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza strip, as well as push for a timely solution to the Gaza question that is comprehensive, fair, and lasting. Both parties have reached consensus on the following details: 1. Both parties condemn Israel for its sustained violations on the Palestinian people. The Gaza strip has already had 124,000 civilian casualties, of which the majority are women and children. The population of the Gaza stip have been subjected to life threatening starvation and blockade, cutting off all means of life. The Gaza Strip's residential zones, hospitals, schools, mosques, churches and basic infrastructure have evenly faced systemic destruction. Thousands of Palestinians captive have been subjected to detainment and torture. 2. Both parties condemn the invasion of Rafah as well as the bombing of refugee camps and control of Rafah's ports. 3. Both parties oppose plans, intentions, and actions to forcibly transfer the Palestinian people to the territory of other nations. This will deal a death blow to the peace and stability of the Middle East and result in a worsening and expansion of the region's conflicts. 4. Both parties demand the Security Council introduce a binding resolution, realize immediate sustained ceasefire, stop the forced transfer of the Palestinian people, guarantee the flow of humanitarian aid to the entire territory of Gaza, and execute the relevant resolutions of the security council, in order for normalcy to return to life in the Gaza strip. Both parties condemn the United States' use of veto powers to prevent Palestine from being a full member of the United Nations. 5. Both parties support the International Court of Justice's temporary orders on January 26, March 28, and May 28 regarding the suit brought forth by South Africa against Israel for violating the "Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide", and have determined that Israel must follow the relevant laws, especially International Humanitarian Law. 6. The Arab Side Insist on the execution of the resolution made on November 11, 2023 in Riyadh at the Joint Arab Islamic Extraordinary Summit, which includes breaking the blockade imposed on the Gaza strip by Israel, as well as the use of Land, Sea, and Air to immediately deliver aide rendered by Islamic and Arab Countries and international humantarian organizations to the entire North and South of Gaza's territory. The Chinese Side expresses understanding. 7. Both parties insist that without the end on the occupation of the nation of Palestine with its capital in East Jerusalem, Golan heights of Syria, and Lebanon's occupied territories, there is no way to realize peace, security, and stability in the region. We urge the international community to use irrevocable measures to push for the establishedment of an independent Palestinian nation based upon international law and relevant international resolutions including UNSCR #497 (1967), #338 (1973), #497 (1981), #1515 (2003), and #2334 (2016) as well as the full contents and demands of the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative; in order for the Palestinian people can regain their inalienable legal rights, of which include: the right to self determination, the right to establish an independent Palestinian nation based on 1967 borders with its capital in East Jerusalem, as well as the right of return and compensation as established by UN General Assembly Resolution $194 (1948). We support Palestine becoming an official member of the United Nations. Both sides strongly insist that the "Two State Solution" is the only realistic path to settling the Palestinian Question. 8. Both Sides urge the

I’d rather trust a human to translate sensitive political documents. The website has an English section, but it doesn’t look like this entry has been translated. At least, I couldnt find it after searching for “palestine” or “gaza” on the English page and looking for something dated 2024-05-31.
DeepL works fine. or because it’s an official document (lot less ambiguous), you can paste in any decent LLM and ask it to translate. Chinese <-> English translation improved a lot.
