It's highly unlikely that one side happens to be entirely on the side of genocide in one issue and entirely on the side of the victims in another issue. Either the Palestinian genocide or the Uyghur genocide are happening, but not both.

Yes, I can't see any reason why countries would acknowledge or ignore genocides depending on their strategic interests /s

Could you please provide some actual arguments? Because this is horse shit.

Of course it's likely and it often happens.

Actually IRL it's more often that not like this. Israel supporting Azerbaijan against Armenians, for example.

Oh, you are simply a troll.

Israel supports ethnic cleansing in Azerbaijan and in Gaza. Sounds consistent to me.

Well, they are entirely on the side of the victims in one other small event.
