Circuit Breaker: The Sound Of Silence
Hello my son, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was dying
And the vision that was planted in my brain still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless streams I have walked alone
Narrow streets of cobble stone
Beneath the halo of London's street lamp
I turn my face to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by COVID-19's might
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in horrified visions I saw
Ten-thousand people maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People in dormitories that voices never share
And no one dares disturb the sound of silence
Of silence
Of silence
Of silence
"Fools, " said I, "You do not know
Silence's like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words, like silent rain-drops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the dead LKY they still hoping
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said
"I will rise up from my grave!"
Written everywhere on the walls
And in all the school halls
And whispered in the sound of silence"
"I have cometh to relieve you
Of stupidity that cannot cure
By the sound of silence
Of deaths
Of sufferings
Of silence ..........

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.

Covid 19 - Breaking news - 1426 cases today
Singapore reported 1,426 new COVID-19 cases on Monday (Apr 20), bringing the national total to 8,014. CNA
This kind of numbers look like Singapore is on track to become the epicentre of Covid19 outbreak in SE Asia. And this is only the earlier stages of an uptrend. We are not seeing the peak yet.
With more than 300,000 foreign workers, plus maids, plus S pass and E pass holders, making more than 2 million foreigners here, you can imagine what a 10% hit rate is.
Would Singapore join the world's top 20 infected countries?
When is Dorscon Red going to be declared?

Covid19 - Trump and Pence have been claiming credits for the situation in the USA
Trump and Pence have been glorifying how well they have done to contain the spread of the virus in the USA and protecting the Americans. They have done extremely well, excellence and deserve all the credits. Is this true?
Who do you think were the people that have been working their guts out to keep the lid on this virus and brought some order to the mayhem? What would happen if the state governors did not step in and take charge of their states, declared all the tightening measures, social distancing, semi lockdowns, testings, wearing masks, running the medical services, hunting for PPEs and medical supplies?
What would happen if the governors would just take orders from Trump and Pence and let Trump and Pence decide and dictate to them what to do? One thing for sure, America would have opened for business one week ago. Business as usual or near usual.
What would be the infection rates today, what would be the death numbers today?
Who should the Americans be thankful and grateful to, Trump and Pence or the governors? Who deserve the credits for curbing the virus in the USA?
