US torpedoed the entire global economy to stop China's rise

This is very interesting news that Israel is now saying that US intelligence warned them in November about a potentially catastrophic pandemic in Wuhan, China, and apparently other US allies were also warned in November.
This confirms what ABC News reported earlier this week and, of course, the Trump administration denied it. You’re not supposed to believe anything until it’s been denied maybe twice or three times. So we'll have to wait for a couple more denials before we can be sure that this is true.
But assuming it is—and we’ve got these different sources now telling us that this is true—this is quite mind-blowing, because China did not become aware of this problem until December 31st. So if US intelligence knew that there was a potentially catastrophic pandemic developing in Wuhan, China, in November, it means US intelligence knows what’s happening in Wuhan, China, better than the Chinese do. And the only reason that that would be the case would be if the US had planted the virus there.
 
Now that sounds like an outrageous hypothesis, but it’s really not if we understand how geopolitics operates, how covert operations take place. And if we understand the complete lack of normal morality and ethics among people who are in charge of foreign policies we understand why it is far more probable than not that US intelligence was indeed behind this, although given that the Israelis are pointing their fingers at the Americans, maybe the Israelis were involved too and want to offload some of the blame—who knows. Certainly the attack on Iran would implicate the Israelis.
In any case, the US desperately needs to stop the rise of China to number one world power status. To do that it has to slow down Chinese economic growth considerably, which has been in double-digits for almost 40 years.
The only way to do that would be to torpedo the entire global economy and find a way to try to break the global supply chains so that the economy would become less globalized and individual countries would be looking elsewhere rather than to China for their goods, to get infrastructure through such projects as Belt and Road and so on.
If history continues on the trajectory that it was on before the coronavirus, the Chinese are going to rule the world within a decade or two. There’s no question about that. And that is absolutely unacceptable to the American decision-makers. They had to find some way to bust up the globalized economy and in particular to try to strike at China. This appears to be what they’ve done.
Now, they’re saying that they’re going to steal China’s investments in US treasuries to the tune of trillions and trillions of dollars as supposed compensation for the virus.
So the US propaganda push among the extreme anti-China crowd here in the United States is to blame China. The push is to use this as an excuse to destroy China’s economic leverage by stealing Chinese investments in US treasuries and to attempt to de-globalize the world.
All of this points straight at the usual suspects. The same people who did 9/11 in order to launch their war on Islamic civilization as the beginning of the clash of civilizations, now realize that the civilization that is the most threatening to their continued hegemony in the world is Chinese civilization.
This is the first strike of World War III as the US is preemptively striking China not so much with the virus itself but with the massive publicity and the historical effect that will happen due to this virus, as they can smear China, as they can try to convince other countries to stop trading so much with China, and as they attempt to de-globalize the world economy so that they can freeze the world the way it is, where the US still has the vast preponderance of military power.

There is going to be a civil war in the US, engineered by Trump, to extend his presidency longer.

To stop China from ruling the World.
China in its' entire many thousand years of civilization in history has never done it, nor is there any indication and sign that it has ambition to.

Trump is eagerly waiting for a chance to declare a state of emergency.

The Americans have been ruling the world and wanted to do this forever. To protect the Empire they are spreading fear that China wanted to take over and inciting the world to go against China.

This is thief calling thief, like the Covid19, they spread it and blame it on China to deflect the attention on themselves and their evil deeds.

Hi Anon

Chinese Mentality is that we do not want to be involved in Others MOST of the times sickening bickerings and trivals quarrels and wasted previous time and energy in doing more worthwhile activities.

The Whites and their Kind wanted to put their every fingers into everybody's pies.

And stirred shits

The Aussies have revealed their racist and evil intent to go against China. With oil prices cheaper than dirt, their economy is going bust.

The price of US oil has turned negative for the first time in history.

That means oil producers are paying buyers to take the commodity off their hands over fears that storage capacity could run out in May.

Demand for oil has all but dried up as lockdowns across the world have kept people inside.

As a result, oil firms have resorted to renting tankers to store the surplus supply and that has forced the price of US oil into negative territory.

The price of a barrel of West Texas Intermediate (WTI), the benchmark for US oil, fell as low as MINUS US$37.63 a barrel.

There is little to suggest otherwise that the US is not behind this virus outbreak. They have:

1) The ability (biological labs all over the world, even maybe on warships),

2) The motive (bringing China down),

3) Knows when to do it (picked the period just before CNY when China's human migration was at it's peak and perfect for transmission),

4) Where to start (Wuhan was one of the most important manufacturing hub in China),

5) Have lots of avenues and things to blame (human error, bats, pangolins, wildlife consumption),

So what else does not fit?

There will be lots of investigations by lots of people to muddy the water, create diversion, plant confusion, new discoveries to add to the rubbish heap and in the end the culprit gets away and the world lives happily ever after.

911 was an inside job, with suspicion turned away from it with all the stories of military exercise going on, airspace shutdown, steel clad structures turning to ashes and collapsing in freefall. Then they created diversions, planted confusion and in the end Osama bin Laden gets the blame, which was their objective.

They know how to manufacture evidence, have the media on their side and the poodles to peddle their side of the story to convince the world and get away with murder.

There they go again. They have stolen the gold of other countries at Fort Knox already, and when some countries asked to take back those gold that they placed for safe keeping with the US, they were denied. How atrocious, committing daylight robbery just after committing their piracy act by seizing other countries' medical supplies.

Now trying to confiscate China's treasuries? If true, this is an act of war! That is going to start the war!

Anonymous said...

So, is this how Israel came to know of the 911 attacks before it happened, from US intelligence as well?

Why did Israel, the closest ally of the US, reveal this information of US intelligence warning them, basically making the US the prime suspect in orchestrating the outbreak. And the US denying it?

I think there is more to it than meets the eye.

This squares with the Event 201 tabletop exercise that simulated a global pandemic due to a fictional deadly coronavirus, hosted in October by the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in partnership with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and World Economic Forum.

It's interesting now the Israeli Intelligence revealed this at this time.

Something soured might had happened in between now. The old Israeli Leader might be going out of power.

Also, think China and Israel seemed to be on better terms and helped each other in this Pandemic.

Even Israel and China helped Japan.

So, they might want to expose Dotard TRUMP's evil deeds as they knew he is a double crosser and might even sabo them by blaming them.

Let it be exposed further.

Paper cannnot cover fires.

No wonder Trump was acting hazy, calling it a hoax, saying it is not serious, that it will go away like magic, that the US has everything under control. In fact he knows so much about the virus and how the virus will behave and that it will not infect the US, since it is so far away in Wuhan. When it does, and results in closing down States, he said it should not be happening in the USA. He should ask Bill Gates why it is so!

He did not bet on the backdraft that brought the virus home to roost. Now it is crunch time fighting the outbreak on home ground, creating diversions, pushing blame to China, denying anything that can point a finger towards the US.

Looks like only war will end this! China need to stockpile as much cheap oil as possible!

Sorry typo error:

Looks like only war will end this! China need to stockpile as much nuclear warheads as possible!

Now's they turning the Attention to North Korea.

Saying Kim.Jong Un is critically ILL.

May be upheavals in North Korea.

So that the World would NOT start pointing and demanding an inquiry into this accusation.

Lately, Handsome Kim appointed his Sister to a Higher Post.

Something fishy?

Maybe he exhausted too many late nights with his wife.

Exposing The Evil Schemes Of USA Is Of Paramount Importance To Humanity

China and WHO should vigorously investigate into the US devilish scheme. Gather all the evidences as soon as as fast as possible before they disappear.

Get Israeli Intelligence and USSR's vast Intelligence Apparatus to help.

I believe South Korea and Taiwan might have been warned by the US too.

Japan was kept in the dark. The Diamond Princess could probably be part of the plan to infect Japan and the put the blame on China, to drive a deep wedge between Japan and China. But it backfired because it was detected by Japan early and therefore saved the day for Japan.

All those cruise ships with COVID-19 infected "tourists" could also be part of the overall CIA plan. There could be CIA agents on board to have planted the viruses that infected the real tourists.

International flights could also have CIA agents carrying the COVID-19 Viruses on board. It is so easy for them to put the COVID-19 Viruses in the planes' food and drinks and the toilets' toiletries.

Bill Gates is definitely part of and privy to the Evil Master Plan.

China must spend some efforts to investigate Bill Gates and his pretentious cover organizations disguised as charity to do good. He is an active member of the Heinderburg Group of secret organizations, with intention to control the whole world's population. Their aim is to reduce world population to 500 Million by various means - food, drinks, medicine and biotechnology.

This Evil Scheme must be exposed at all costs because the whole humanity is at stake.

China should also take action against Microsoft.

God works in a miraculous way. While the Americans and its cronies are trying all means to destroy China, fail they shall as God would not have it.

Now with the falling oil prices with no demand, all the American oil producers are going bankrupt. And China, a major oil consumer, will be sweeping up every barrel in the market practically for free to feed its factories.

Australia, the dastard country that is crying for China's blood will pay dearly this time. China would not buy its oil, and like someone said here, its dirt.

Crash will be the Australian economy. That is the only way forward. White racist bastards.
