War is clearly not an option given China's thin-skinned nature, inexperienced military (yearning for battle as we can see in the border with India) and firebrand government. I think really biting, heavy sanctions that cover more than a dozen assholes in Xinjiang who probably don't even have bank accounts would be a good start. But what do I know, I just feel terrible that these things are happening and the UN seems impotent to do anything about it.

Calling China’s military inexperienced seems extremely ignorant to me. Against what yardstick are you measuring their military experience?

Calling me "extremely ignorant" for pointing a very well-known fact that experts inside and outside of China agree upon sounds like you're taking this personally, or maybe you are a Chinese nationalist. In any case, enjoy some assessments by people qualified to speak about the Chinese military's inexperience, haven't seen combat since the 1979. It includes opinions by retired Chinese generals, in case you think you know more than them.

A direct quote:

"I am retiring soon. My one big regret is that I never had a chance to fight in a war," Gen. He said, according to Aaron Connelly, director of the Southeast Asia Project at the Lowy Institute.

Though it's strange to regret peace, He correctly identified what the Academy of Military Science of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army previously told Business Insider was the Chinese military's biggest weakness: inexperience."

China has veto power in the UN, it's not like they wouldn't veto anything against them ( like the US and Russia do).

>What can the West do?

Gain the moral authority necessary to actually apply pressure to China - by prosecuting our own war criminals and crimes against humanity.

Until we do that, there is nothing we can do except create more atrocity. We are certainly not prepared to do whats necessary for as long as the criminals responsible for the destruction of Mosul and Raqqa are free to spout their nonsense to the world ..

Divest, we can pay more to make it here. because we are not fat lazy or lacks.

What happened in 1930s? People don’t want wars and delay the inevitable until wars came to them and they can’t escape anymore
