Obviously America's done some insane stuff in the past that would be a lesson to countries around the world (for example attacking Iraq after getting them to cease production of WMDs, reinforcing the lesson to countries like the DPRK to never disarm), but with stopping the SWIFT system in Russia and with Israel now detonating beepers in Lebanon, frankly it's showing every non-Western country that it's time to cut all relations with the West and shift immediately to Russia and China.

Why would you ever risk the safety of your own country now with buying tech from a Western country or one of its vassals (like SK or Japan)? There's zero guarantee America and NATO won't come after your country at some point in the future (and I'm now remembering 'hang on, wasn't Iraq under Saddam and Libya under Gaddafi literally allies of ours?'). I googled motorola (and apparently by the way motorola works closely with Israel) and it says it's a subsidiary of a Chinese company, Lenovo? How is the father company Lenovo (and consequently the Chinese government which I imagine wouldn't want one of their companies being used for terrorism) currently reacting to this news?

Utter psychopathy; I don't know what the state of alternative tech and banking was in the 90's but today countries HAVE alternatives, they have fantastic alternatives, they don't have to rely on Western tech.

I partially want to see how Western news is going to talk about this terror attack by Israel which in just moments wounded almost 3,000 people, but I know all these mouthpieces put zero value in the lives of Arabs and just like they have for the last 10 months either just spin it or let Israel say it and just repeat it.

I genuinely hope China harshly rebukes this attack and shuts down their factories back home; and you know what? All those loser liberals and reactionaries losing their jobs may just jog their brains into realizing the DNC and the GOP are no future for the country.
