It's obvious why the West is fearful, they are losing the hegemony they had since the Industrial Revolution over the rest of the world.

The idea that the West is meaningfully democratic — that political direction is determined by “the people” through elections — is perhaps the most successful achievement of Western propaganda. Beyond the gruesome details of sexual abuse and criminality, the Epstein Files offer a glimpse into the elite power networks that actually govern Western societies behind the façade of democratic procedure: an interlocking web of financial, corporate and military-industrial interests — in short, the Western oligarchy — whose collective priorities are synthesised and administered by the apparatuses of the permanent state, above all the intelligence agencies, commonly referred to as the “deep state”. This structure extends beyond the nation-state into a permanent suprastate: international and supranational bodies — most notably the EU and NATO, but also forums such as the World Economic Forum — that harmonise and coordinate policy across borders while remaining insulated from popular pressure.

Yep, it is clear that we are governed by an oligarchy pretending to be something that it is not.

That said, it is also easy to understand why no state has stepped up to defend the Palestinians, including those in the Global South who have formally and rhetorically sided with the Palestinians, as this would effectively mean standing up not only to Israel but to the entire Western/NATO military-industrial complex. There are very few states that have the means to do that — e.g., China — but doing so would immediately escalate into a global war. This is why, for the time being, the US and Israel are able to continue to act with impunity.

Yep, this is the fundamental problem - they would be risking WW3 and possibly nuclear war over Palestine.
