...Officials at the Depts of #Defense, #State, #Health & Human Services, Homeland #Security; the #FBI; & the office coordinating America’s #intelligence agencies also told their employees not to respond.
#Musk is out of his gourd."

Satellite images obtained by the Financial Times that are being examined by US intelligence show a roughly 1,500-acre construction site 30km south-west of Beijing with deep holes that military experts assess will house large, hardened bunkers to protect Chinese military leaders during any conflict — including potentially a nuclear war.
Several current and former US officials said the intelligence community was closely monitoring the site, which would be the world’s largest military command centre — and at least 10 times the size of the Pentagon.
Based on an assessment of satellite images obtained by the FT, major construction started in mid-2024. Three people familiar with the situation said some intelligence analysts had dubbed the project “Beijing Military City”."

NATO has only been called into one war: the US invasion of Afghanistan, with the triggering event being 9/11, when the US was attacked directly.
