People around here on Lemmygrad are doing an exact rerun of the “China supports Israel” psyop with Vietnam, a (lovely) country that does not respect sanctions on Iran…

I'm confused. How is not supporting sanctions on Iran in support of Israel? Who is saying China supports Israel? I would like to see China cut Israel off completely, but I also understand that the cost of that might be too much for China. China has condemned Israel at the UN.

They don't know Vietnam ignores those sanctions. I am the only person who has pointed it on this site, & only about three people saw it. Yeah, we are all on the same page about the China thing. They're not capable of taking those lessons & applying them to Vietnam.

To be clear, Vietnam & China's relationship with Israel is completely open to criticism. I think that should start with a deeper look into what their actual foreign policy is based on, then step from there to examining whether that lines up with reality. By my reckoning it does, but I am not omniscient, just persistent.
