Xi not going to G20 is not about the border with India. It is signalling he will not be a sucker buying failing G7 bonds as he was in 2008. G20 only exists because G7 needed BRICS to buy their bonds to keep the circus going.

16 child deaths. Some died from IDF indiscriminate fire according to survivors.
More than 1000 times more children dead in Gaza - by very deliberate IDF targeting.
In ten days, Israel’s bombing of Gaza has killed more than three times as many children — 1,756 as of yesterday — than those that have been killed in nearly two years of war in Ukraine. Let that sink in.
There are too many warships converging on the Levantine Basin for ‘deterrence’ as the justification. An operation at this scale involving navies and militaries of so many states has been planned years in advance.
