<{> At least, speaking for myself and per post # 11 on this thread, "...the whole mess is spelled DoD and China, as best the evidence suggests. And billionaires spawned through this process."
As to "a concerted effort to take down the US these days," one observes that from the Clinton administration forward, "we" have deindustrialized in so many ways, that other nations are -- in the view which Ross Perot so clearly observed decades ago -- building themselves in part by the "giant sucking sound" of US jobs leaving. Trump;s notion of energizing repatriation of manufacturing to the US is of paramount importance, and urgent.
Not for the "military industrial complex," of which Eisenhower warned, but a much broader American industrial base is what will aid our recovery from the idiocy of Democrats and globalists.
I agree with your thoughts there, but without a DOD link, we
can toss them in, but I don’t see any advantage to the DOD
dumping a virus in China. I’m not willing to go that far as
little as we know about that.
The US never really went all in on blaming China. Trump
called it the China virus, but was China confronted with
litigation to pay back foreign nations for their expenses
related to the outbreak? Was it fined. Did the US wind
up with any improved position related to the virus? No.
So what would the DOD hope to gain by being the culprit?
I feel there is a need to touch on this also. Corona
viruses are numerous. COVID-19 is just one of them. If
someone is working on a corona virus study, it does not
mean it was undoubtedly THE precursor to COVID-19.
The U.S., China, and others worked on these types of
studies. I’m sure nations like Russia and European
countries did.
I believe this article had some pertinent information
to provide, but I think the leaning of the article was
slanted to make it sound like the US may have been the
source of the outbreak.
Viruses always mutate. This one wasn’t some super-
special creation with regard to that.
