oh, somehow it's georestricted? dafuq.. Anyways better links/sources are available in the other reply.
But the Western nations, who engineered the settler-colony currently occupying Palestine, is incapable of recognizing Palestine. All the recent news about the West recognizing Palestine aren't actually in any way meaningful when A) they've propped up and maintained the settler-colony for decades and continue to do so, while also recognizing the Euroanglo-Zionazi settler-colony that they themselves manufactured and B) the recognition itself is under the condition that Hamas is dissolved or anything to that effect.
No research, no right to speak.
Tell us exactly where Al Jazeera is wrong, tell us exactly what an unbiased news outlet is like and what an unbiased view of Palestine is supposed to be. No research, no right to speak.
Is using the word "intifida" a criminal act and therefore should be followed up with an arrest?
Is it a crime to resist occupation and settler-colonialism that is also worthy of being locked up for 40 years?
Should students be dragged on the ground by police on their way to the car for the crime of invoking their "strongly-protected right to strike"?
I don't know how you claim to see Pro Palestine protests and activism but don't even know half the shit that the Fr*\nch state carries out under the banner of "protecting democracy", and also somehow have the guts to claim China doesn't have the conception of Right to Protest. No research, no right to speak.
These "news sites" use the terms "war on Gaza" and "Israel-Hamas War/Conflict" to pretend as if it's a playing-level field of two equally matching opposing militaries and to downplay genocide. They are also owned by bougies whose shared material interest is keeping the settler-colony alive. No research, no right to speak.
Citations needed on the Hong Kong stuff. Championing universalizing ideals of "both the West and China are equally imperialistic and bad" is a reaction so meek, so infantile, that it doesn't actually ideologically and materially go against Western hegemony or imperialism. Therefore, by also considering the other things you've opined, it makes you a lib.
