And yet the Patriots are shipping in a million masks from China to the US. If it were any other country of manufacture than China, I would be applauding this move. Now, there is the possibility the Patriots may be contributing to the continual bending of the knee to the Chinese and risking yet another source of defective and/or contaminated medical equipment.

“China has a lot to answer for. They will pay for this. People will not forget this, for a hundred years...”

We forgot 9/11 seven years later. And again eleven years later.

Everybody forgot about the Tienanmen Square massacre. And for over a month it was the only story on the news across the globe, until the crackdown.

Now, it’s like it never happened.

9/11 affected a relatively small portion of the population directly, and the general population only tangentially.

THIS has affected EVERY PERSON ON EARTH PERSONALLY..................

Because "Made in China", you think? We're going to run out of Captains Obvious.

Nobody will be able to forget what China did/made.

Just another level of meaning re Amalek: the people (AM) who are not holy (Lo Kadosh). Am lo kadosh, sum ting wong.

Just check the Middle East map and rotate it 90 deg clockwise. The *crown* on the Sphinx is the Sinai, which is spelled the same as "Chinese", sini [סיני].

Crown thy 'hood which Chinese goods and Ho Lee...

Not only may these masks expose people who think they are being safe but what about Cuomo buying ventilators from China. Special kind of stupid.

I suspect the Chinese haven’t forgotten what the Brits did to them. They may see this as “revenge”.

As long as there is one wet market open in China and they do not disallow eating wild animals, every country should have a travel ban on China.

Don’t forget, we weren’t exactly blameless. There was an American family, IIRC the Roosevelts whose family fortune started in the Opium trade. Steve McQueen, the Sand Pebbles was historical.
