Iron Dome worked pretty well so that should count for something among the population. Parliamentary systems of government are strange to me. Imagine being able to change your leader without having a general election. As an American it just feels weird to me.
Disingenuous for the headline writer to state that the ‘media’ was embarrassed when they weren’t really trying to find the story in the first place. This was a breaking story in Feb 2020, then censored and ridiculed, now news again thanks to FOIA release. It is good to see that some are not just paying lip service to the situation, but what will come of it other than Fauci’s book being mothballed?
“Within days of the new revelations and the Science letter, more
academics, politicians and even the mainstream media began to take the
lab-leak seriously, culminating on May 26 when link to whitehouse.gov “to redouble their efforts to collect and analyze information that could bring us closer to a definitive conclusion.””
Bold attempt by the current administration to appear to want to get to the bottom of the story.
One of the several attempts of the past couple of years to blatantly manipulate the MSM to deliver the chosen narrative of the corporate overlords and the political class.
Right up there with “mostly peaceful protests” and white fragility.
White fragility? You mean all the Karen’s calling the cops every time they see a black man walking down the street? Or privileged whites whining about their privilege?
My daughter is named Karen, she lives in NYC, and she’s white…..but she never called a cop in her life on anybody, and she’s as about as fragile as a longshoreman. She could probably kick your *ss.
I never heard of “white privilege” until a couple of years ago, but now since BLM and “anti-racist activism” hit the scene, it’s suddenly a pervasive social problem that every corporation and and every institution of higher learning and every government bureaucracy has to address.
Based on what? The fallacious ideas of people like Peggy McIntosh, who coined the term….and was herself EXTREMELY privileged, and white, and an intellectual who taught at Brown…which is an ivory tower if there every was one.
I’m as Anglo as it gets….but guess what? I’ve spent my entire 30 plus year career taking care of brown and back people, and I’ve always treated them with respect, because that’s the way my Christian white working class parents raised me. I’ve treated upwards of 40,000 patients in my career (many of them dozens of times)…and the majority of them are persons of color. I’ve treated 3 generations of working class people in this working class town, and I have nothing to be ashamed of with regards to my treatment of anybody of any race, color, or creed. In my book there is only one race, and that’s the human race.
Didnt see this being reported anywhere in Feb of 2020. The media wasnt really looking. I think the the embarrassment referred to was wasnt the media but who and how it was done by.
It was reported as early as April 2020, and by May, 2020, several “authorities” were denying it wholesale, and calling it a conspiracy theory.
To any interested party with reasonable critical thinking skills, it should have ALWAYS been on the list as highly probable, for many reasons that I’ve listed before. Just the destruction of evidence alone was highly suspicious, and it isn’t like it was even the first time a SARS variant got out of a Chinese lab.
Neither would I, but with Trump gone, he lost his biggest foreign ally. Suddenly he no longer has a tight relationship with a sitting US President and all the other Western countries and the UN hate him. All he’s got in his corner are the “Make Israel Great Again” domestics.
I think Biden is caught between his long-standing friendship with Benjamin Netanyahu and the pro- Palestinian stance of the progressives in the Democratic Party.
Just remember that Israel spends a hell of a lot of money to get what they want out of the US Congress…..so don’t expect the progressives to change much, once the dust settles.
