dint read her long ass post, but here's my take on MY chinese on this matter:

1) chinese culture are almost always taught to stay out of conflict. avoid being middle man if can. ntgh's good come from being middle man.

2) chinese are not local to arabs, nor do they share the religion, nor muslim or jews. so basically, chinese feels that dont hav the adequate say in this matter. when u're not a subject matter expert, dont pandai2 talk so much. so silence is golden here.

3) chinese also dont support any wars in general, it's bad for business (unless u're american arms dealer). & refering to the point 1 & 2, chinese neutral, do not want war, but no picking side.

4) because chinese dont pick side, they are annoyed by some people's view that "if u dont support palestine, u must be israel supporter".
this negative reenforcement makes chinese even less likely to support palestine because it makes them feel u are the extremist for forcing them to support palestine.

5) the stronger the force, the stronger the resistant.
imagine, 2 salesperson tries to sell u their product that u hav no understanding of.
first salesperson was like, "u want to buy or no, up to u, i dont care".
where the 2nd salesperson keep showing his/her product down your face, & trlling u that u're a bad person if u dont buy it.

6) what irrated MY chinese even more is that in their birth country for 3-4 generations, malays still refer them as non bumi, & at times even being called pendatang.
where else some people half way across the globe that u nvr met before, doesn't even share the same culture, but just so happens same religion, u called them brothers.
what gives?

most m'sia chinese are also from buddhism.
even not religious in practice, but the origin of home teaching & culture also more or less influence by buddhism.
buddhism practice the concept of neutrality & non judgemental.
buddha is all all about chill, not picking sides.
