On May 8 the West, led by the United States, Britain and France would have been publicly commemorating the 75th anniversary of the V-E day, the victorious end of the war in Europe against Nazi Germany. But the Wuhan-virus pandemic has put the West into a lockdown, and the question of the hour is how should we in the West, or at a minimum the people of the English-speaking countries, view or put in context this latest pandemic outbreak from China.
The quick short answer is the West got blindsided by the Chinese Communist leadership, more appropriately the Beijing gangsters, in the war for global supremacy that they surreptitiously have engaged in for a long time. Historians in the future will assess, provided the West do not succumb to the Chinese stealth warfare, the extent to which the western elites aided and abetted the Beijing gangsters over the past several decades to become emboldened in their bid to re-configure the global order for the 21st century and position China as the dominant world power.
Long peace resulting from an absence of war among great powers never lasts indefinitely. The long European peace that followed the end of the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic wars with the Congress of Vienna in1815 crashed in the European inferno ignited in the war of 1914-18. There then followed the twenty years crisis of 1919-39, and the Europeans once again self-inflicted another lethal blow on their cultural inheritance from the Age of Enlightenment in the making of the modern world. Europe, in retrospect, never fully recovered culturally from its own self-mutilation in the first half of the last century.

Nixon opened the West to China in a bid to counter Soviet power. Now that the Chicoms have infected the whole world with this virus and literally caused trillions of dollars in damages this would be a good time to isolate them again.
Heh, the Democrat Party (CUSP) agrees with China.
And they should be treated as such.
Democrats are the enemy within, do not doubt it.
They are NOT your grandfather’s Democrats (those folks actually worked and had real jobs).
Excellent article. Thanks for posting this.
A wake up call if there ever was one.
I think the 75th was last year.
So we think they attacked the world in a stealth war they could deny(yep they Did IMO), what’s the response, oh we are taking billions from them, aww hell no...not near enough , the issue is the fakeness of the entire word system, nothing represents the ways Christ taught.. no religion is the way, only Christ is the Way..What was made to be a moral nation protecting Israel has reached her end, Let God’s Dogs of War Loose, Open the Scrolls
what’s the response
*************
Probably a non-response cast as a stong one.
Bring Out Your Dead
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
The false positive rate was 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
If a quarantine saves just one child's or one old fart’s life, it's worth it.
Any US company that still has a factory over there should not get one dime in tax perks.
