The U.S. doesn’t really give a shit about it. Remember they have their own weird One China policy in which they technically only deal with mainland China and not Taiwan. Very few countries recognize Taiwan to be the real China still.

I don't remember many Israelis caring when their government was terrorizing Palestinians :/ Welp....who would have guessed that the government that could so horribly treat Palestinians has the capacity and evil to horribly treat them.

The problem for the government isn't the protesters having military training. It's that due to the nature of mandatory service the army will never turn on the people. I'm very serious under no circumstances will the army ever even dare to attack the protesters. Bibi lost as soon as he tried all that's left is to see when he finally gives up and accordingly how bad his punishment his going to be. This entire move is seen as essentially treason and considering the fact both the ultra nationalist and ultra orthodox aren't liked by the general public this government is a dead man walking

Tell me about the Uyghurs? How safe did they, do they, or can they ever feel?

I have something I think you'll enjoy....go onto posts about racism and say, "As a white man, I have never experienced racismor even wotnessed it, everyone is just so pleasant to everyone else. The only rasim that exists is in old books and in snowflake victims"
