Never forget who I am and where I come from

[Arnaud Bertrand @RnaudBertrand]

This is so ridiculously wrong, I'm not sure where to start.

At no point in its thousand years long history has China invaded Japan, not once. Japan has however invaded China at least 3 times, most recently of course during World War Two.

China does have some disputed territory with Japan, specifically the Diaoyu Islands (Senkaku Islands), which were part of China until 1895 when Japan annexed them together with Taiwan. These are very small uninhabited islands so it's utterly ridiculous to claim that China "thinks that most of Japan belongs to them".

There's also the question of Okinawa, formerly the Ryukyu Kingdom, annexed by Japan in 1879. To this day there's a strong independence movement on these islands and many inhabitants descend from China (the Ryukyu Kingdom was a tributary state of the Ming and Qing dynasty) but China has never claimed the territory, either historically or today.

China doesn't believe that Korea - North or South - is its territory. Same as Japan, at no point ever in its history has China invaded Korea. It has however defended Korea several times against invasions, be it from Japan during the Ming Dynasty or from the U.S. during the Korean war (which famously led to the creation of North Korea which, contrary to popular belief, is very much NOT a vassal state of China).

China doesn't believe that the Philippines is its territory. They have a dispute over some islands in the South China Sea, most notably the Spratly islands which are claimed not only by China and the Philippines but also, in whole or part, by virtually all the other countries around the South China Sea. Very much worth mentioning: the Philippines' claim over the islands is much more recent than China's and most other claimants' (the Philippines starting claiming the islands in 1972 when China's formal claim dates back since even before the creation of the PRC in 1946).

As for Taiwan, yes, the PRC claims Taiwan and literally all the countries in the world - including the United States - agree under the One-China Policy that Taiwan is part of China (although not part of the PRC). Heck even Taiwan itself officially agrees that it is part of China - its official name is the Republic of China and some 95% of their population are Han Chinese. If you go to the national museum in Taipei, you'll find the world's largest collection of Chinese art and artifacts, brought over by the Kuomintang when they retreated to the island, and the museum claims to embody 5,000 years of Chinese civilization. The reality is that the root of the dispute over Taiwan isn't about territory - it's about which government is the legitimate ruler of China, a civil war that never officially ended. To frame this as some sort of expansionist land grab completely misses the historical context.

All in all, if one studies China's history within its region, it's probably one of the least aggressive great powers in history. Despite being the dominant power in East Asia for most of recorded history, China historically preferred diplomatic influence over territorial conquest. Even during periods of maximum strength, China focused on trade and diplomatic relations rather than colonization or territorial acquisition. You just need to look at the facts: China hasn't fired a single bullet on foreign grounds in over 45 years. Which other country can claim the same in today's world? The list is awfully short.

It's absolutely insane to frame China as this sort of bloodthirsty warmongering power, especially when you're American... And it's even more disgusting to do so when you're yourself literally a weapons manufacturer, as is Palmer Luckey.

From westerner perspective, no matter what China is doing, it's wrong.
So what we Chinese should do is to ignore westerners and take what they say as fart.

Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth said Uncle Sam will no longer be a sucker. Basically he is telling Europeans that it’s your turn to be a sucker. Take it.

金砖这个事到底成不成功，你们只要看老美的反应就知道了，先是死压着萨勒曼不让他出席，接着就是让库尔德人炸了土耳其，完了又在三哥家里撺掇民粹，说莫迪跟中国和解是卖国，搞得老仙儿连夜回国发表公开讲话，说跟中国一直冲突不符合印度国家利益。你们看看，如果不成功，如果不重要，老美能这么上心吗？马凯硕说，G7是落日俱乐部，金砖是朝阳俱乐部，说得没错，而且金砖是包容的，无论体制，无论宗教，无论人种，无论实力，大家都可以参与进来，大家想的都是怎么发展经济，过好日子，不要那么多政治上的条条框框，怎么取长补短，怎么把蛋糕做大才是最重要的。

我们的金砖能这么迅速地发展壮大，必须感谢泽圣跟内圣，没有这俩，大毛还端着呢，还心心念念融入西方呢，中东还一盘散沙呢，沙特还在跟以色列勾搭呢。所以啊，有人说运气好挡都挡不住，我不这么看，运气好你不努力一切都是空谈。没有我们高瞻远瞩的一带一路战略，没有我们早就部署下的金砖组织和上合组织，没有我们一门心思谋发展，一点点积累下来的制造业强国体系，没有我们一辈又一辈不服输不气馁，一定要独立自主的魄力与坚持，没有我们面对打压毫不退缩，坚持发展的能力与成绩，那么多发展中国家是不可能跟我们靠拢，信任我们加入我们的。

运气靠天，而我们相信人定胜天，这才是我们能突破围堵封锁，在这么艰难的情况下，还能在内政外交，在产业发展上突破创新发展的根本内源性动力。

‘Israel has a right to target civilians.’

Straight from the U.S. State Department.

Remember this the next time they dare lecture the world about human rights.

These Chinese people who speak Chinese and write Chinese from a region that has China in its name are going around Europe proclaiming that they are not Chinese.🤮

Their Chinese ancestors would be ashamed of them.

[Chen Weihua （陈卫华） @chenweihua]

Can’t believe the U.S. leaders’ logic, after every assassination they and their puppets conducted, they called the other side to exercise restraint and avoid escalation and now they even describe such assassinations as creating opportunities for peace and ceasefire. So the West has officially declared “assassinations” as part of their rules based global order???? The common sense is that if you assassinate one political leader, you help recruit more for his (resistance) movement. The so-called: One fell, thousands rise.

Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar is dead.
No human shields.
No hiding underground.
Just one man in the end, directly and defiantly telling the occupiers to fuck off.
No matter how many battles go in its tactical favour, Israel will never win the war.

[Jackson Hinkle 🇺🇸 @jacksonhinkle]

❤️🇵🇸 How Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar fought until the end & gave the ZIONIST TERRORISTS a hell of a fight:

🇮🇱 ISRAELI terrorists fired their tanks at Yahya Sinwar & four other soldiers.

🇵🇸 He was the only one to survive.

🇮🇱 Then, the ISRAELI terrorists launched a missile from a shoulder-mounted launcher at Yahya Sinwar.

🇵🇸 He emerged, unscathed.

🇮🇱 Then, the ISRAELI terrorists launched a remote-controlled drone at Sinwar.

🇵🇸 He knocked it out of the sky by throwing stones.

After 15 minutes, an ISRAELI terrorist sniper finally took Sinwar down with a precise headshot.

Those who are fiercely and proudly fighting for their people, for their land and for their dignity are never “terrorists”..

They are among the best and noblest of freedom fighters..

They either live and fight for their cause like heroes, or go into martyrdom like heros..
