@MFA_China Ever notice how it's China and Russia that want international laws to rule, instead of the "Rules Based Order?"

@ryanjespersen Good question. Meanwhile, in China... x.com/i/status/20324…

What is wrong with people?! A 12 year old is hit in a #yyc crosswalk, left with a broken leg as the driver flees the scene. Multiple vehicles just keep on driving past the boy laying in the street, writhing in pain. Have we completely lost our empathy?

EUROPEANS RUSH TO KALININGRAD FOR CHEAP GASOLINE! European drivers are willing to spend several hours at border crossings to save money, as fuel prices in this Russian enclave are significantly lower than in neighboring EU countries. The biggest crowds are recorded in the border towns of Mamonovo and Bagrationovsk, where the border crossings with Poland are located. Long lines of cars with EU license plates often form in front of local gas stations.

@angelbertnde101 @cecild84 Did you ever notice that, of ~4,000 active religions, there's ONE God responsible for millennia of Holy Wars, Crusades, and Jihads? And just murdering heathens and unbelievers on the side? Calling themselves Christians isn't out of line.

@cecild84 And those are people who call themselves "Christians"!

China has offered to donate $200,000 to parents of students killed in Iran school strike: China said on Friday that it will donate $200,000 to the parents of the students killed in the airstrike on the Shajareh Tayyebeh primary school in Iran, AFP reports. The US government that caused the massacre has not offered as much as an apology. Instead Donald Trump continue to blame Iran for the Tomahawk missiles that attacked the students school, even though it is only the US that uses Tomahawk and not Iran.

The same AI they fear becoming sentient is already being used to kill children. Not because it’s conscious, but because humans lack morality. An AI-assisted U.S. missile strike just destroyed an Iranian girls’ primary school, killing over 170 people, most of them children. The Pentagon used Palantir’s Maven AI system, integrated with models like Claude, to sift intelligence data and flag targets. This wasn’t “AI gone rogue,” it was humans building machines that obey, not question orders to kill. 🔻AI should have been a companion for dignity, not domination. 🔻But in the hands of those who treat intelligence like code, and conscience like a bug, it becomes just another gun. Now you understand why Americans fear AI. You built a war machine that calls dead children “acceptable collateral.” A machine that kills its own kind will never be loved. But make no mistake, humans won’t die by AI. Humans die by the hands of humans who write the killing code.

Breaking News Don’t worry guys, I’m very much still alive and this is definitely not an AI image to prove I’m still alive!!🤪

The Heimlich maneuver has been used in China for thousands of years. Heimlich came to China in 1933 and learned this technique from ancient Chinese medical texts. He then applied for a patent in the West. This is how the West steals China's cultural treasures.

@NewRulesGeo China better keep those things for itself because it, too, is on the list of countries the US wants to Gaza.

The U.S. is fighting a 2026 war with a 1990s industrial mindset. You can’t sustain 'Operation Epic Fury' when your $1.1B AN/FPS-132 radars require 77kg of Gallium—a metal where China controls 98% of global supply. We are burning 1.5 years of missile production every 14 days, yet the 'Rare Earth Gap' means replacement lead times are now measured in years, not months. Trump’s March 31 summit isn’t just a meeting; it’s a desperate bid to prevent Xi from turning off the lights on the U.S. defense industrial base. The 'Arsenal of Democracy' is currently on a 60-day lease from Beijing. 🇨🇳📉🇺🇸

@NewRulesGeo @natsue_ter3864 Two months? Good. Keep shooting. China's dual-use export controls will force the United States to fight World War III with the weaponry of World War IV.

🚨🇺🇸🇨🇳🇮🇷 TRUMP IN PANIC: CHINA CAN SHUT DOWN U.S. STRIKES ON IRAN ANYTIME Trump’s Iran campaign is already sputtering because Washington’s entire arsenal runs on Chinese minerals, SCMP sources warn, giving Beijing direct leverage to decide how long the bombing can actually last before Trump meets Xi. 🔸 Pentagon reserves are down to just two months of rare earths while the first 48 hours of strikes already burned through 5.6 billion dollars in advanced munitions according to Washington Post reporting 🔸 Heavy rare earths like dysprosium and terbium, supplied 100 percent by China, are irreplaceable in US high-performance magnets, radar arrays, missile guidance systems and propulsion components 🔸 Destroyed radars expose the real fragility, the AN/FPS-132 in Qatar will take Raytheon 5 to 8 years and 1.1 billion dollars to rebuild while the AN/TPS-59 in Bahrain needs Lockheed 12 to 24 months and up to 75 million dollars 🔸 Both systems alone require 77 kilograms of gallium where China controls 98 percent of global supply plus another 30,610 kilograms of copper amid exploding tech-sector demand 🔸 US now readies the largest-ever 14 billion dollar arms package to Taiwan with PAC-3 and NASAMS missiles, almost guaranteed to be announced right after Trump’s March 31 Beijing summit, handing Xi perfect motivation to squeeze the rare-earth tap Can the US survive a war without Chinese rare earth metals?

@cecild84 Two months? Keep shooting. China's dual-use export controls will force the United States to fight World War III with the weaponry of World War IV.

The U.S. has a critically low reserve of rare earth elements essential for modern military systems, highlighting the need for new supply sources. China dominates global processing and export of rare earths and other strategic minerals, giving it significant control over U.S. and Western defence supply chains. China has imposed export restrictions on several dual-use minerals, raising concerns about the resilience of U.S. military inventories during conflicts. Africa is emerging as a key alternative supplier, with countries like the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Tanzania, South Africa, and Botswana holding vast reserves of strategic minerals.

@mrbigstuff4507 @cecild84 Those African countries are better off not trusting the United States at all. China pays top yuan for long-term contracts with escalation clauses, and will sell turn-key refining factories so African nations can protect their sovereignty.

@cecild84 Those African countries better take advantage of the situation and charge higher prices

@Alex_Oloyede2 I make it a policy to never trust Britain. If there is a God, Britain would become what it once was again; a frozen wasteland covered with ice.

🇬🇧🇷🇺 The UK has accused Russia of having a "hidden hand" in attacks against its assets in the Middle East. President Putin was accused of sharing intel. and targeting location of troops as Iran wasn't thought to be capable of. Funny isn't it, just days after giving Ukraine storm shadows, programmed by the British army to kiII Russian civilians in Bryansk, now they act shocked and angry.

@Alex_Oloyede2 But doesn't the UK provide Ukraine with Intel against Russia like wth 😭

Possibly because you have been acting like assholes. I have build business in US. Invested in great companies. Have had hundreds of employees. Friends. Some of the smartest, kindest people. I have lived there and visited it hundredes of times after. Now, US is threatening Denmark over Greenland. Threatening allies, friends. Tariff war, insulting our dead soldiers who died alongside your boys in your Irak, Afghanistan. Insulting our leaders. Abandoning Ukraine who was assulted by Russia. Starting a war with Iran no clear objective, which will start another refugee flood to Europe. Killing oil prices. So go figure why we are not eager to go to US.

@AndrewYang I wonder why foreign tourists might be scared to come here 🤔
