America’s Chinese Fentanyl Flood
The Epoch Times ^ | 8/1/2021 | Grant Newsham

In modern times, Saudis, Japanese, South Koreans, and Israelis—to name a few—have all managed to purchase influence. But the usual goal is to gain advantages for their own nations. What we are seeing now is something much more dangerous—using influence to corrode the United States from within.

In 2019, over 37,000 Americans died from fentanyl overdoses. That’s nearly five times the number of American troops killed in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

In 2020, the U.S. government reported 93,000 American residents died from a drug overdose—the vast majority from fentanyl poisoning. The COVID-19 lockdowns have helped bump up the already horrific death totals.

Yet, even as the death toll mounts, U.S. businesses and financial titans never mention it. The think tanks are mostly silent. Academia? Can’t be bothered. The U.S. media often downplays or ignores the fentanyl bloodbath, and even more so the source, seemingly afraid to mention the C-word, China.

The fact the Chinese regime doesn’t ban fentanyl in its entirety—much less go after producers the way it goes after Uighurs, Christians and Falun Gong, or Hong Kongers—suggests the CCP is glad America is awash in fentanyl.

The Chinese are getting even for the Opium Wars of the 1800s and early 1900s.

If the Chinese were to speak honestly they would say that they were only repaying the West for the narcotics damage it did to China for over a century.

And how much of this drug traffic is not only tolerated, but encouraged by the Biden team because it enriches so many and furthers the chaos throughout the US and, especially, in the cities? The Marxists and Communists want a collapse of social order so they can rebuild their dreams from the burning wreckage.

Fentanyl is CHICOM chem weapon attack against America with certainty. The amounts coming out of China DO NOT get out without the CHICOMS knowing all.

I want a new drug, one that won’t make me sick
One that won’t make me crash my car
Or make me feel three-feet thick

If the Chinese CCP were to speak honestly, they would say they are working on their goal of killing off 200 million Americans

America should intercept as much Chinese Fentanyl as possible ... put it on B-52s and spread it all over mainline China ... and then send them a bill for returning it to them.

The Coudenhove-Kalergi plan + Cloward-Piven on steroids. Ideas have consequences.

One cannot fix stupid.

All these deaths are suicides and I have no sympathy for them.

What is truly alarming, is that while nothing has been done to stem the inflow of Chinese fentanyl for 12 years, the outbreak of Chinese carfentanil in late 2016-early 2017 -- up to 100 times as potent and which was taking down LEOs upon mere passive exposure during their arrests of dealers, was buttonholed rapidly within months, and then memory-holed, so fentanyl could continue unabated...

Ask yourself why.

to bus, plane, and taxi the mules of these poisons
to every city not under their control.

have seen the buses with the dark windows with
police escorts most Governors would be jealous of.

“All these deaths are suicides and I have no sympathy for them.”

I feel the same way but they are using a lot of resources and we are paying for it. Not to mention the increased crime
