#1 It was an army alright, but not our army. Asymmetric threats fall into three general categories: IT, WMD, and what we are seeing today:

Countering Asymmetric Threats
Ashton B. Carter and William J. Perry
with David Aidekman

Third is the disturbing prospect that opponents will attempt to threaten the U.S. homeland with terrorism on a war-like scale. Catastrophic terrorism might result from the use of weapons of mass destruction, especially biological weapons; from attack upon the critical infrastructures upon which fragile modern society depends, including power, transport, communications, and finance; or from attack upon asymmetric threats the persons and institutions of the federal government. The specter of attack on our homeland is a relatively new one; in this century, America’s wars have been far away. The country is favored by geography, with oceans to the east and west, and friendly neighbors to the south and north. But globalization and technological change undercut the protection historically afforded by favorable geography.

#4 as with everything, China probably stole it from another country first, so now they are just reparsing the language

#5 Why on earth did our elites decide to join us at the hip to such a shitty and corrupt nation?

Why did they deliberately raise up this global menace?

For what national benefit?

#8 Ref #4: ....as with everything, China probably stole it from another country first, so now they are just reparsing the language

Likely the US or Canada. Perhaps that explains the lack of interest in the actual Wuhan origins.

#10 Amidst the panic and frothing by Democrats about racist xenophobic everything Trump does is bad noise, consider the good news the pandemic is bringing to our eyes. The past 20 years of naive and/or corrupt foreign and economic policy about China is being revealed as a massive, massive, existential mistake for America. We now can see that they lie, cheat. steal and corrupt every connection and are our main enemy in the world. Disengage, reindustrialize and accept that we don’t need them as much as they need us. And my answer to the claims that I’m being racist and xenophobic about
China is, you’re goddam right I am!
