The European Parliament overwhelmingly passed an emergency resolution Thursday condemning the Chinese government's persecution of Uyghurs and urging China to immediately and unconditionally release detainees, including Uyghur economist Ilham Tohti and Gulshan Abbas.

The resolution is fueled by widespread concern from the international community and highlights its continued concern about the human rights situation in Xinjiang.

I literally linked a map from a 2019 UN joint resolution, showing mostly Muslim-majority countries, including Jordan, that agree that there is no genocide in China.

Both Qatar and Jordan are American puppets, evidenced most recently by Jordan helping Israel carry out its genocide by shooting down Iranian drones.

I mean so are several other countries on that map, it's egregious enough that Saudi Arabia broke with America on this.

Your words:

If it was happening, Muslim majority countries might give a shit.

Are Jordan and Qatar majority Muslim countries? Because I'm pretty sure they are.

I didn't say every single Muslim majority country, because countries like Jordan are perfectly happy supporting genocides.

Fuck off with this bad faith bullshit.

If you didn't mean "Muslim majority countries," you should have said so.

Apparently what you meant was Muslim majority countries that pass your purity test.

Here's another Muslim majority country which gives a shit:

I'm guessing they don't count either since they're not the kind of Muslim who wears flowing robes and Keffiyeh.
