@BuenoForMiami I wonder how many Americans realize that today's U.S. is essentially a real-life version of the Galactic Empire from Star Wars.

The U.S. government lied about Iraq and Afghanistan. There were never any weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, and 20 years to replace the Taliban with the Taliban in Afghanistan. But Iran is totally different… because the government would never lie🤥

@RobboLaw You can't produce a single shred of evidence, and I know you're full of it. It's clear that there's no point in continuing this conversation. Keep daydreaming in your fictional world; I'm done here.

@moling Dude. Stop being a Trumpy moron. There are plenty of Chinese supporters arguing that the camps were a good thing. That's an incorrect argument, but one that's worth talking about. Pretending it never happened is stupid.

This is my point. In a civilized world, what China is doing in Xinjiang would be a scandal. In the world of atrocities the United States has created, it's silly to even talk about...

@RobboLaw No! Because I know perfectly well that it’s all made up. Official confirmation from the Chinese government cannot possibly originate from a BBC article.

@moling Read the BBC article.

@RobboLaw Can you provide official confirmation from the Chinese government?

@moling Again. The Chinese government confirmed forcibly putting millions in camps. A cowardly, uncivilized act that will be remembered as poorly as the Cultural Revolution.

@RobboLaw If you consider yourself civilized, the first thing you should know is that any allegation must be backed by solid evidence, rather than just being based on hearsay and rumors.

@moling Because I am a civilized person who recognizes that putting millions of people in camps against their will is a criminal act.

@RodKahx Trump will furiously set another deadline for Iran.

What actually happens tomorrow at 8pm eastern when Iran doesn't do anything that Trump wants.

@RobboLaw How can you see genocide in this photo? How can you prove this is a concentration camp and not just a prison or a detention center? I suggest you muster the courage to visit Xinjiang and see for yourself just how much you’ve been lied to.

@moling China admitted to putting millions in camps. bbc.com/news/world-asi…

@zaobaosg 法国人已经没有是非分辨能力了。随他们“震惊”去吧。想制毒贩毒，不要来中国，去法国吧。

法籍华裔毒贩囚禁20年后被执行死刑，法国外交部表示“震惊”。中国驻法国大使馆表示中国是法治国家，对不同国籍被告人一视同仁，严格依法公正处理。 #Echobox=1775443322" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">zaobao.com.sg/news/china/sto…

@ftchina The U.S. is hell-bent on causing harm, while China is doing its utmost to save lives.

@DougAMacgregor Perhaps Iran realized that the aggressors need time to replenish their ammunition and redeploy their troops before they can continue the assault, so they agreed to a temporary ceasefire.

BREAKING: United States and Iran reportedly discussing 45-day ceasefire plan.

@CheburekiMan I’m no fan of Iran, but I harbor a much deeper resentment toward aggressors who habitually use armed force to attack other countries.

I swear 90% of X is rooting for Iran.

@quarktalksss 这也就是忽悠忽悠傻子，这只有在强弱极其悬殊的情况下才可能发生，势均力敌的情况下要是这么打仗，都来不及数死人。

美国人可以为了救回两名飞行员，全军协调，总统亲自坐镇，宁可损失价值数亿美元的装备。 而中国推崇的是什么？是集结号，是上级骗你和你的战友留下来当炮灰送死，事后战死的士兵连名字都没有，你去要个说法，还说你矫情。最后给你个名分，你还得感恩戴德觉得特感动。 这就是两国价值观的区别，一个把你当人，一个不把你当人，你要是当兵，会愿意去哪儿当兵？

@ianmiles Does it taste good?

Britain is cooked isn’t it?

@dw_chinese 希特勒当年都没有如此大言不惭地标榜自己的侵略行径。

美国总统特朗普週日（4月5日）威胁，如果伊朗政府不按他设定的最后期限，在美东时间週二晚间8点（北京时间週三早上8点）重新开放霍尔木兹海峡，美国将摧毁伊朗境内所有发电厂。 他说：“如果伊朗在周二晚间前不采取行动，国内将不再有任何发电厂，也不会有任何桥梁还立著。” 特朗普上个月限令伊朗达成协议并开放霍尔木兹海峡，到了週一这个10天期限已满。不过最近一次受访，他又把期限改到週二，随后在週日下午，他在未做进一步说明的情况下发文表示：“週二，美东时间晚上8:00！” 特朗普发出威胁后，原油价格在週日早盘交易中大幅上涨，国际基准勃兰特原油（ICE Brent）价格上涨超过2%，至每桶111.25美元。美国原油价格上涨近3%，至每桶114.54美元。 详细报道请戳👉p.dw.com/p/5Bixf

@ABCChinese 法国对以色列在加沙屠杀的数以千计的儿童无动于衷，却对中国枪毙一个害死无数人的毒贩横加指责，简直无耻之尤。

法国证实，被囚禁20年的法籍毒贩陈森已在广州被执行死刑，对此表示“震惊”，并称曾多次基于人道理由请求中方从轻处理未果。 中国驻法使馆证实处决消息，称“中国是法治国家”，“打击毒品犯罪是各国共同责任”。 据报，62岁的陈森生于老挝，具有法国公民身份，其所涉及的贩毒集团制贩海洛因和冰毒逾八吨。

@MonicaCrowley Trump is hands down the president who managed to get the maximum number of people to loathe the U.S. in record time.

What a difference a REAL President makes! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

@johnkonrad First and foremost, NATO is a tool for the U.S. to control Europe and counter Russia (and the Soviet Union before it). It’s not some charity project, so stop acting like the U.S. is some self-sacrificing hero, it never has been.

NATO is in far bigger danger than anyone realizes. And the reason has nothing to do with defense budgets. The real danger is psychological. It’s cultural. Europeans didn’t just free-ride on American security for 80 years. They built an entire identity around the idea that they evolved past the Americans protecting them. That identity is now the single biggest obstacle to Western survival. And the darkest irony is: we helped build it. After World War II, Europe wasn’t just economically shattered. Its culture was in ruins. The cities, the universities, the concert halls, the museums. Rubble. The Marshall Plan rebuilt the economy. But culture wasn’t a priority. Not at first. Then the Iron Curtain dropped. And suddenly culture became a weapon. American diplomats, academics, artists & scholars flooded Western Europe. We funded their universities. Supported their orchestras. Rebuilt their museums. Promoted their intellectual life. Not because European culture needed saving for its own sake. Because Eastern Europeans were struggling for Maslow’s mist basic needs. We needed the view from the other side of that Wall to be intoxicating. So America built Western Europe into a showcase of self-actualization. Art. Philosophy. Cafe culture. Long vacations. Universities where people studied literature instead of surviving. We were manufacturing jealousy. And it worked. The Wall came down. But here’s what no one accounted for. When you give a society self-actualization on someone else’s tab long enough, they forget it was a gift. They start believing it was organically theirs. And when they look at the country that funded it all, a country busy building aircraft carriers and semiconductor fabs and shale fields instead of reaching the Maslow’s pinnacle. An overweight American in a ball cap who can’t tell Monet from Pissarro. Who eats fast food. Who drives a truck. Who builds strip malls instead of piazzas. And to a culture trained in aesthetics but stripped of strategic awareness, that American looks uncivilized. So the arrogance takes root. And once a culture decides another is beneath them, they stop listening. Americans say wars are sometimes necessary: crude. Oil is the backbone of prosperity: unsophisticated. Kids build companies in garages that reshape the planet: crass. Wall Street finances the global economy: vulgar. Europe has no world-class technology sector. No military capable of strong defense. No energy independence. No AI capacity. What Europe has is culture. The culture we paid for at the expense of us reaching Maslow’s pinnacle. For decades that was fine. We funded the museums, protected the sea lanes, and tolerated the sneering because the arrangement worked. Then Europeans stopped keeping the contempt private. They started saying it to our faces. In their media. In their parliaments. At every international forum. “Americans are stupid. Americans are violent. Americans are a threat to democracy.” We could have moved the Louvre to NY. We could have built a Venice here. We could have stolen your best artists, designers, philosophers and more… like your conquering armies did for centuries. Instead we funded them. And all we asked for in return was to let us visit. You don’t have the military to defend your borders. You don’t have the technology to compete. You don’t have the energy to heat your homes without begging dictators. What you have is an 80-year superiority complex FUNDED BY AMERICANS, protected by American soldiers, and built on the false belief that self-actualization is civilization. It isn’t. Civilization is the ability to sustain itself. By that measure, Europe isn’t a civilization at all. It’s a dependency with better wine. That’s not a threat. It’s a weather report. Build a Navy. Or don’t. But stop lecturing the people who made you “better than us” Our “crudeness” our “stunted liberal education” our “ugly strip malls” are because we sacrificed our culture to support yours.

@realtimsharp Listen, kid, you obviously know nothing about the Korean War or the fact that North Korea stands as China's sole military ally.

North Korea is a nuclear armed nation and has openly stated their disdain for America for 20 years. Why aren’t we bombing them?

@goddek Given that a madman like Trump has been elected U.S. president twice, I believe this statement is extremely useful for a lot of people in America.

Why would they write something so obvious like this on pizza boxes in the United States?
