Possible BioTerror from China...oh boy.

FBI warned of 'biosecurity risk' from China after finding Sars smuggled in scientists' luggage a year before coronavirus

AN FBI report warned of a “biosecurity risk” coming from China more than a year before the coronavirus outbreak reached the United States. In November 2018, US customs officials at Detr…

Suspected SARS virus and flu samples found in luggage: FBI report describes China's 'biosecurity risk'

An FBI report about China’s involvement with scientific research in the U.S. has raised alarms. While the report refers broadly to foreign researchers, all three cases cited involve Chinese nationals.

Nope. More like Chernobyl if anything.

 

[Chevusa]

Don't think so. They did handle it wrong and should be on the hook financially though. Also, the market where this all started has re-opened for business as usual.

It wouldn't surprise me if it was.

Some may conclude from my posting this that my tin foil hat is excessively tight, but bluntly everything comes back to the old question, "cui bono?"

The Coincidental Chinese Virus

When everything from professional sports to entertainment award shows have become political forums, it’s no surprise that an infectious disease outbreak moved from the realm of science to politics. In politics there are few coincidences, def...

They have enough cyber-capability to cripple us if they wanted to, along with enough forward deployed shit to cause some serious mischief around the PacRim; I doubt they'd set off a bomb in their own country that would threaten enough pain in the rank and file as to threaten the potential downfall of the party.

Just my

I think it's unlikely the Chinese deliberately unleashed this virus just to cripple the U.S. however it can't be entirely ruled out. Commies in power have demonstrated they are willing to sacrifice millions of their own citizens towards any goal deemed essential. Great leap forward anyone?

 

[Drinkthekoolaid]

I think negligence is entirely more likely.

I have no doubt that china is trying to develop bio weapons.

I don't think they would purposely release it there in wuhan hoping it would make its way around the world and cripple their economy.


What I think is far more likely (this still may be part of an experiment from their lab) that it was either accidentally released through negligence (for example a lab tech trying to sell a test animal in the wet market for a few extra bucks) or they were attempting to clandestinely test it on humans and it got out of control.

It makes way more sense the way china behaved and how they denied everything and constantly down played Everything.



What would our government do if we screwed up and released a mild biological weapon? We would down play it, deny it, obfuscate, misdirect. What did china do? Yea.....

I don't disagree. Its not likely that they would intentionally wreak havock on the planet. But on the other hand (fastening chin strap on tin foil hat)...

They've been getting their asses handed to them economically over the last 3 years, with no sign of the trend changing. This was leading to instability at home, and if the factories start to close and people start getting hungry, China would have a big mess on their hands. So what if this was some kind of kamikaze Hail Mary pass? A chance to destabilize their adversaries, while doing some population control at home (weed out some of the unproductive elderly, crack down on dissent in the name of public health, etc.), possibly motivate a leadership change in the US, and crank up the factories staffed with low paid workers ready to undercut their global competition for a market that can't (or isn't willing to) afford domestically produced goods anymore.

Again, not likely. But I wouldn't be surprised.

 

[stokes]

No doubt they have no worries about killing off a couple million of their own leeches,but I dont think they'd intentionally sacrifice their own economy.Would have been very easy for them to set it loose only over here. I think when this all blows over,their economy is gonna really take a hit when the world thinks twice about chinese,or any asian imports.

 

[Calculon]

They need to pay for allowing this to happen. That doesn't mean we load up the B52s. IMO @kev74 is right that Trump has been taking them to the woodshed for the past 3 years. I think it equally likely that 1) they intentionally released the virus knowing it would spread around the world and wreak on the world economy, or 2) the virus got out accidentally but they looked the other way and allowed it to travel outside their borders. Remember the Chinese govt has even less regard for its citizens than ours does for us, so it would be perfectly willing to sacrifice untold numbers of them in order to punish the US.

 

[BDinPutnam]

Yeah but.

They dont need an uncontrolled virus to do the work for them.

They're very adept at running camps. Just ask the 1 million Uighers in the western part of the country.

What does "need" have to do with anything? They're crazy. They eat bats for crying out loud!

We're in the middle of the world's biggest biological weapons experiment. Every nation is compiling data and making plans - offensive and defensive. Maybe that's part of the plan too - watch how the world reacts and make more plans.

Normal operating procedure for them. With everything.

They have plenty of tinfoil left in the stores.

It was..........The demorats...

 

[redtail]

Yes.
Silent war.
We have been at war with the ccp since 1950.
They play long ball and don't have the burden of a two party every four yr. internal battle to deal with.
Guess who is buying stocks on the cheap right now ?
There is an active infiltration of western universities, has been for many yrs.
Many us pols are invested heavily in China, or should I say bought by ?
Threatening to go hot in S.China sea.SAM batteries



So Yes.

 

[Justincase]

Don't think so. They did handle it wrong and should be on the hook financially though. Also, the market where this all started has re-opened for business as usual.

When this is all over (or more likely when this thing is mostly contained) the WHO and NATO damn well better mandate that China outlaw those fucking wet markets. This is the second time the entire world has been affected by their idiotic choices in food and lack of safety standards. Culture and enormous population or not, stop encroaching on the habitats of wild animals and making them "food". Fuck being PC and call out "China" and the "Chinese" who live there for decimating lives and economies.

Anybody who can spare the cash? I know I am to the extent I can afford it.

 

[Toecutter]

This virus was not on purpose more of a incompetent communist government. Doesn’t mean the may try and capitalize on it.

 

[redtail]

People are slowly paying attention to what some have been saying for months. This virus is too perfect to be natural, and started right next to a bio lab(some say bio warfare lab). This either was intentional or accidental, but it was no accident that China chose to deceive the world on what they started. This has become a weapon against us, having already starting to overwhelm our hospitals and compromising our armed forces. China is in a perfect position to take Taiwan and anything else they want. This may escalate and get serious within the year.
Imagine a senile puppet as president.
