When you are told that everything is someone elses fault…..either by their birthplace, skin color, or whatever you choose (you do not seem to need anything much else in the way of “evidence” or “proof”)…..well, that is how you see everything. It obviously also clears your conscience.

No fault ever comes your way…..there is always a “yeah but”

The emails have no relationship of truth with the arrived at conclusions OR the headlines.

This entire line of attempted defamation has been debunked so many times over and over, and the entire line of these continuing assaults since May of 2020 (not sure about the date, but close).

It is yet another untruth wrapped in headlines that only certain folks will fall for.

Looks like North Korea and Eritrea are the only totalitarian countries in the world in 2021. China does have some checks-and-balances and the Olympics being there in 2022 create more of these. They will try to put on a good face to the world.

I believe that the Chinese are trying to get at the facts as best they can about the origin of COVID-19 because of all the attention brought on by the 2022 Olympics.

I couldn’t disagree more.

Fusion reactions do not generate long lived radioactive byproducts so radiation was not the concern. Burning up the atmosphere was the concern. Oppenheimer, the scientific director of the Manhattan Project, was sufficiently concerned that he directed Teller, and someone else I can't remember, to investigate whether this could really happen. Based on energy budget considerations, they determined that a world wide fusion reaction could not happen so the Trinity test proceeded. Teller, who was really more interested in a fusion device (aka the "Super") than the fission devices the Manhattan Project was working on, was in the unique position to suggest the possibility and also to do the analysis to prove it wasn't a possibility. I had the good fortune to see Teller speak some time ago.

Thank you for that DEEPLY knowledgeable information on an interesting chapter of science. I was only aware of a vague general outline of the situation. That is the BEAUTY of a forum!

I agree with the content of both posts #46 and #47. Both are very informative and important statements!

You've got to love it when someone unknowingly annunciates a personal blind spot.

Freedom Watch is a legal organization...run by attorneys reporting findings from filed documents.

CNN and their ilk, slant everything to the left, Fox, and their ilk, slant everything to the right. Which is why I rely on my own common sense.

And that leaves the traditional channels pretty much in the middle - like NBC, CBS, and ABC. Please, everyone.......work hard to cut through the "fog of chaos" to arrive at clarity for yourself and others in one's orbit. We ALL live in interesting and difficult times, so much is asked of us.

The one-child policy of China was a long time ago. It tried to balance the amount of resources (like food and financial strength) with an ultra-fast growing population. Some might call that good and not evil?

air pollution. Can you believe we saved the Chinese from being taken over by Japan ? I believe most Chinese want their freedom.
Any war with them and you could see majority of their military surrender.

I hope that is correct!

IMHO blaming China for the US's problems is a clever design to DEFLECT attention and blame away from RUSSIA - which has a greater interest in seeing the US FAIL than China because of our great trade with China and virtually none with RUSSIA.

Correct. Russia is laughing their butt's off right now and (rightfully) patting themselves on the back.

Yes, there are so many examples of that in History. I tend to believe that it can be explained by the anthropological survival instinct built up in early man. Your tribe may live in a cave and for years be happy and relatively non-violent. Then along comes another tribe that wants your hunting grounds and wants your cave. The ongoing competition requires that to survive YOU must distinguish your tribe from the "OTHER" tribe. Modern nations can create a false NATIONALISM by pitting the larger, dominant tribe (or subculture of that nation) against the smaller, less dominant tribe within that nation.

Hmmm. I think we might need some examples - proven ones would be an added bonus.
