If this isn't just a desperate attempt to secure more support from daddy America by implying the presence of a sinister gloved Chinese hand, then fucking good. Keep up the good work comrades, I like your gloves.

[–] Pluto@hexbear.net 44 points 2 years ago

I love it when China does anything, err, "sinister."

great typo, it should be a site tagline

[–] Pluto@hexbear.net 20 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

I like how the title is pretty anecdotal if you think about it.

Edit: OH, nvm, I see what I'm replying to lol

That typo was on purpose; the "Dengist/'dentist'" meme is used a lot on Twitter, at least on my Twitter feed.

[–] milistanaccount09@hexbear.net 18 points 2 years ago (1 children)

OH I'm not on the :twitter-logo: so I haven't heard this joke before: it's still good

[–] Pluto@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago

Oh, fair enough.

[–] SnowySkyes@hexbear.net 59 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Sooooo. do they have any physical pieces of evidence or is this just a made-it-the-fuck-up scenario? Almost certainly the latter.

[–] Pluto@hexbear.net 30 points 2 years ago

I... dunno, tbh. Maybe they're trying to get USA involved directly?

the maoist uprising against the landlords was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, and led to almost totally-equal redistribution of land among the peasantry

we need this as an emote

[–] pooh@hexbear.net 53 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Pretty much everything Israel and Israeli media says is a lie, and I suspect this is a ploy to maintain US support which has been waning among the US public.

[–] BeamBrain@hexbear.net 43 points 2 years ago

Yeah, I'm filing this under "not true but I wish it was"

[–] AntiOutsideAktion@hexbear.net 46 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Wow Hamas must be really kicking their asses if they can never recover any of these weapons from their skirmishes

[–] Commiejones@hexbear.net 36 points 2 years ago

Yes. You are so right israel. China bad. China is a Hamas. You should definitely pick a fight with China over this. Just launch everything you can at them. They won't expect it and they will be intimidated by your bravery and cunning. Show them how mean you are. This is the second front you should be starting. Hezbollah can wait. Yemen can wait. China needs to be shown who the boss is. You got this.

[–] D61@hexbear.net 26 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Not like it would be all that hard to find somebody willing to slowly loose (ie, sell) arms of Chinese manufacture to Western military and intelligence agencies for just this type of PSYOP.

[–] Mardoniush@hexbear.net 22 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Or, you know, china sold to Iran, or another third party which then smuggled them into Gaza. Do people think Gaza is home cooking rpg-7s? I doubt they can manufacture much more than a sten gun.

[–] GinAndJuche@hexbear.net 29 points 2 years ago (3 children)

they have a surprising amount of production down in those tunnels. We’ve already seen videos demonstrating the CNC guys making a sniper rifle and explosives experts making a homegrown PG-7VR

[–] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Forgotten Weapons analyzed the video and said it was fake. It’s possible that they didn’t want to expose their process since we know they’re actually capable of home grown weapons.

[–] GinAndJuche@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago (2 children)

known chud channel, zero faith in them being accurate. The asshole wrote a book sucking off azov.

[–] Tunnelvision@hexbear.net 20 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Completely agree with the overall channel assessment, but I will say coming from a manufacturing background the point about not using coolant when turning the barrel is pretty true, but I genuinely think they’re probably just hiding their manufacturing process.

He didn't actually write it, his company was going to publish it. Still a sign of shit judgement/morals.

[–] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago

ah yes the heady days when most english speaking people would acknowledge that azov are nazis after reading about them for two minutes

True, but, I mean, the Chinese break the blockade against the DPRK all the time; I could definitely see them doing this (basically, looking the other way, essentially).

If Israel really tries to hammer this point in media, I might actually convert most of the my extended family to Socialism with Chinese Characteristics

I bet they just mean the Type 56.

[–] CthulhusIntern@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago

Let me know when someone other than the IOF reports it. I just assume Israel and the IOF are lying about everything until I see evidence otherwise.

[–] material_delinquent@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

China exports a bunch of weapon to a bunch of states and state actors into the Levante and Persian Gulf region, not least of all Iran.

lib source, but credible in general imo, just filter out the usual us-foreign-policy points: https://www.defense-aerospace.com/china-seizes-arms-exporting-opportunity-in-the-middle-east/

[–] SexUnderSocialism@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago

Based, if true. It would mean the gloves are off. xi-square-up

[–] Aquilae@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago

Based if true.

IOF reports are false until proven otherwise however.

[–] mayo_cider@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh no, I hope no one else is supplying this conflict with weapons
