U.S. President Donald Trump was enjoying cake when he bombed Iraq last week ... wait, he meant Syria.

In an interview with Fox Business, Trump said he informed Chinese President Xi Jinping the United States had fired missiles "heading to Iraq" (incorrectly identifying the country he was striking during the interview) while the two enjoyed dessert.

"I was sitting at the table. We had finished dinner. We're now having dessert. And we had the most beautiful piece of chocolate cake that you've ever seen and President Xi was enjoying it," Trump said of the moment he received news that the strikes were ready to launch.

He then informed Jinping that the strikes had been launched, to which the latter said - via an interpreter - that "it's OK to respond with force," when anybody uses chemical weapons against civilians.

The U.S. struck Syria with 59 missiles launched from two Navy ships in the Mediterranean last week hitting the Shayrat base, near the city of Homs in Syria.

The attack came as a response to the April 4 suspected chemical attack on civilians in the northwestern province of Idlib, which killed at least 90 people including 30 children in Khan Sheikhoun, according to Reuters.

"God help us if he's going to launch strikes every time he has dessert."  

A Dubai customs humanoid robot just won the 2016 World Ideas Awards for its high-tech artificial intelligence and ability to carry out everyday human tasks, Gulf News reported. 

The robot, which is a first of its kind, was designed to work and be part of the inspectors unit at Dubai customs. This robot is capable of face identification, reading body language, luggage tracking and thermal scanning. 

As you have probably already noticed in the photo above, the robot was given Arab features. It was also dressed in typical Arab attire. 

This automaton is a step forward for companies who are looking towards integrating more artificial intelligence in the scope of their work.

The World Ideas Awards for 2016, which was held in Germany, gave competitors the chance to submit their big ideas in 2016 but only recently announced the winner. An international jury was tasked with looking over the submissions. 

“This award urges us to keep up the good work in order to always be an example to follow as a world-leading customs administration,” said Ahmad Kazim, a Dubai Customs official told Gulf News.
