Well, crap. This is a conundrum. Who do we believe? “Most experts”? Or “some scientists”?

I wonder if thats why some nations response policy seemed to change on a dime perhaps Colin Powell to say pssst ... this ain’t natural and it ain’t the flu. Xi let one of his biowarefare agents get away - let me show this dossier

I think that is exactly what’s happening.
Right now, leaders like Trump are focused on a pandemic, focused on keeping people alive, focused on trying not to do permanent damage to the economy.
I do not know when, but at some point, this dust is going to settle. And then I think there will be a reckoning with China. I don’t see a hot war. But I think China is going to be economically devastated by the repercussions of this.

Thanks for those links.
We need to get at least some word out as the evil Leftist News Media swallows up and extinguishes anti-China facts like a black hole in space.
I do not intend to let my life end without seeing at least some Communist Chinese brought to proper justice within the law.
I turned the other cheek but ran out of cheeks.

I think the western leaders fully understand the situation. But its terribly impolite to accuse China of this act. It really gets into the actual crimes against humanity thing. Its wild-eyed and crazy to come out with such an accusation without proof and/or without other important people willing to back you up on the suspicion. Im pretty sure Trump feels that it was biowarfare. Sounds like the UK feels it was biowarfare. Pretty soon it will be very openly discussed and, I think, China will be ostracized and financially punished.
Partner, we have had it with the Chicoms. We finally have a POTUS who will tell and show the Chicoms where to go when it comes to stealing, cheating, copying, and lying about their intentions.
The Chicoms can never be trusted since they were killing their own people and lying about the ovens that existed in Wuhan to basically cremate their own folks.
The Chicoms want so bad to be the no. 1 country but I hope this president tells the Chicoms where they can go if they are not upholding their end of the bargain when it comes to trade.
We are hearing stories that the Chicoms were killing their own people since these folks were getting their pensions and they withheld the deaths of the Corona Virus and we will never know how many folks died in Wuhan, China.
Punishment is what the Chicoms deserve!!!

Partner, Great Post.

The most likely scenario is that they were breeding this virus to grow on human tissue cultures, then they accidentally caught their own bug and spread it to the neighborhood.

Accidentally? What a laugh!

The leak may well have been an accident. We’ve had problems with our own labs, and there has been pressure by researchers all over the world who wanted to engineer viruses just like this not for weapons but for study of zoonotic disease- arguing against those who considered the risk of accidental release too great since at least 2011.

The leak may well have been an accident even if development of it was intentional. We’ve had problems with our own labs, and there has been pressure by researchers all over the world who wanted to engineer viruses just like this not for weapons but for study of zoonotic disease- arguing against those who considered the risk of accidental release of engineered viruses, or the intentional theft of engineered viruses by sticky fingered states or terror groups too great since at least 2011.
[And of course there was the added concern that even innocent development of lines of research viruses with their own unique characteristics for the use of vaccine developers and outbreak modelers could be and likely would be very attractive cover for those countries interested in weapons development. ]
