When I started university many years ago, my school of\nchoice was a land grant college. As\nsuch, in those days, a young man had to submit to 2 years of reserve officers\ntraining. (ROTC or as we called it rot-C) \nSince I had dreams of being a fighter pilot, I joined Air Force\nROTC. I remember in particular a lecture\ngiven by my professor, a Lt. colonel, on the methods of conducting warfare; he\nsaid for the air force there were four ways. \nConventional: strafing, bombing, psychological, ect; Nuclear; Chemical\nand Biological. I think that I pretty\nwell understood conventional and nuclear … I knew people from WWI who had\nbeen subjected to chemical … but I am not sure that I ever understood how\nbiological warfare would be conducted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I envisioned loading up the local crop duster’s airplane\nwith some kind of nasty stuff, then flying out over the enemy and giving them a\ngood dusting with something like small pox, anthrax or bubonic plague. I also\ncould see dropping a bomb loaded some horrible pathogen into a large metropolis\nor their water supply. However, I kind\nof dismissed this out of my mind, because it seemed to me that any disease that\nwould be transmitted would take far too long in its incubation to be of any\nreal effect in a wartime scenario. It\nnever occurred to me that the enemy would most probably be totally unaware of\nwhat my bomb had done. The first three\nmethods of warfare, and even the crop duster, require active, aggressive action\nthat the enemy can combat. Even the more\nsubtle way of bombing the water works or the city with an apparent dud are\npretty aggressive. On further reflection\nthese ideas came to me later in life. All\nthese methods are still aggressive with a long time delay and so out of mind it\nwent again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ultimate goal of war from the aggressive point of view is to conquer your enemy by destroying his forces in the field so that the populace has no one to defend them.\u00a0 Or alternatively by destroying the populace or its will to resist either completely or to the point that it cannot resist.\u00a0 If an attack could so affect populace’s confidence in the government that they would rebel, it might foment a revolution that would result in a capitulation that would satisfy the aggressor’s war aims.\u00a0 Examples of this are the Russian revolution and the subsequent capitulation by the Bolsheviks to Imperial Germany in WWI or by the overthrow of Mussolini during WWII.\u00a0 But could these aims be achieved by passive means rather than aggressive means?\u00a0 To do this it would have to be a very subtle attack by a very determined enemy who would have to play the role of innocent bystander.\u00a0 A bystander who was willing to sacrifice much.\u00a0 America has such an enemy, the devious, crafty, dedicated, patient, subtle, brutal, arrogant, genocidal Chinese Communists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is a city in central China, Wuhan, about the size of\nNew York City with a population of about 11 million. Wuhan is a highly industrial city. Some of Wuhan’s industries are\npharmaceuticals and biological research. \nWuhan has the largest, newest, most sophisticated biological research\ncenter in China and probably the world. \nThey do biological research on viruses. \nThey can clone, re-combinate and otherwise manipulate existing strains\nin the most advanced ways known. The\nCommunist Party (CP) says that the Corona virus (COVID-19), first found in\nWuhan, came from wild animals, eaten raw by the people. Is it possible that the virus came from the\nlaboratory downtown?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
COVID-19 infection is much like the flu. It is related to the recent SARS virus that\nran rampant several years ago. However\nthere is no vaccine for it and about 1 in 75 people that get it die. The virus is spread as an aerosol, that is by\ndroplets in the air from coughing or sneezing. \nOf course those droplets can get on your body or clothes and can be\ningested from your hands by wiping your nose or mouth. It is nasty, nasty and it, like the flu,\nbeing airborne will be everywhere and we, each and every one of us will\neventually be exposed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Is it possible that the CP, an enemy that has sworn to\ndestroy us, has been looking for a biological like this to promote biological\nwarfare? Maybe they are and maybe not,\nbut what a beautiful passive weapon. You\ndevelop it, turn it loose on your domestic population, a population in a very\ncosmopolitan city and let the chips fall where they may. Very soon, foreign travelers will have spread\nit worldwide. … Oh, come on, Lee, the\nCP wouldn’t loose this on 11 million people in Wuhan. Oh, wouldn’t they? Would it make any difference to the CP if everyone\nin Wuhan died? 11 million out of 1.8\nbillion? No! Would the CP care if 100 million Chinese died\nfrom this infection? Leaving 1.7 billion\n— No!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Would the people of America care if everyone in New York\nCity died? Absolutely unthinkable! 100 million? \nUnrecoverable, incomprehensible!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So how does the USA react to a virus that did not exist 100\ndays ago that at this point has no cure, but as yet has not been demonstrated\nto be any worse than the common flu that last \nyear hospitalized 450,000 people and killed nearly as many people as\ndied in traffic accidents? Well, we\nfreak out, both the populace and the government, in the greatest demonstration\nof mass hysteria in American history. \nAbsolutely incomprehensible! Considering\nan ancient fable I would point out that\nwhen Henny Penny finally got the entire barnyard hysterical, the calm one, the\nfox, ate all of them up. It is more than\nobvious that COVID-19 will not come close to being a pandemic like the Spanish\nflu or the bubonic plague. But what is\nnot so obvious is the damage that is being done to the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I believe that one of the most successful military\noperations that has ever happened in world history was when a platoon of 19\nArabic soldiers hijacked 4 airliners and crashed them into large\nbuildings. Yes, lots of innocent people\nwere tragically killed, but the collateral damage of that attack nearly 20\nyears ago still goes on in the limitations of personal freedom, cost of safety\nmeasures, anxiety and continuing angst. \nBut the present viral attack on us is far more subtle and ingenious. Passive vs. Active!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It isn’t the “pandemic”, but our reaction to\nit. Myriads of citizens standing apart,\nwearing handkerchiefs, bandanas, dishtowels, hoarding or stealing TP, there are\npeople in isolation, racked with fear, businesses shut down, schools shut down, travel restrictions, there\nis un-Constitutional lawmaking, the anxiety and on and on. It is a tragic commentary on the state of the\ncredulous American citizenry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But the most frightening thing and the thing that can defeat\nus is the reaction of the government. \nThe Congress and the President with smiling faces and the aura about\nthem of love, care and beneficence, after totally shutting down the entire\nnation have now provided a “cure” for their ineptitude. They have borrowed from the Federal Reserve\nBank, 2.2 trillion dollars, quickly followed by a 850 billion dollar\nsupplemental to bail out affected citizens and businesses. The Congress at the urging of the Secretary\nof the Treasury is considering injecting another up to 7 trillion dollars into\nthe world banks to help struggling foreign nations. Let’s see … 10 million-million dollars of\ncounterfeit money … financed by wealth stolen from all the nation’s capital\nassets, but mostly from middle class Americans … but the government says that\nif you do it right, it is “free” money. How long can this go on? Maybe this is the straw that will break the\ncamel’s back! Chinese or Statists or not\nwe need to face the certainty that we are in a war for our Republic and right\nnow we are losing! Are we too late? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
