Half the world supports them, another half of the world is agnostic and not doing anything, and the 3–4 countries are against it. No action to stop a genocide is an action in and of itself.

And I said world powers because while Russia and China are agnostic, they are happy with the end result of US using their resources to support Israel.

The west is only about 20% of the world population wise, and pretty much all the rest supports Palestine. China and Russia aren’t agnostic either. Russia compared what Israel is doing to the siege of Leningrad by the nazis, while China said that what Israel is doing goes beyond self-defence

I’m talking about oranges, and you are talking about apples. World powers =/ world population.

Where exactly did Russia or China expressed their support for Palestine? All I can see is Russia offering to be a mediator and China urging negotiations which are dead propositions, while the US offers Israel public and financial support for their genocide.

Both Russia and China have clearly stated that the UN resolution stating that Palestine has to be granted independence must be implemented. Both Russia and China are demanding that Israel stops its genocidal campaign against Palestinians. This is literally the resolution that Russia introduced at the UN securitry council stated and the west voted down. US has now both amendments proposed by Russia on Wednesday

If you don’t understand how stopping the genocide in Gaza and implementing an independent state of Palestine is direct and tangible support, then I don’t know what else to tell you.
