Top US general: Unknown if coronavirus came from China lab

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/279750


The top US general said on Tuesday it was still unknown whether the coronavirus emerged from a wet market in China, a laboratory or some other location.
“Did it come out of the virology lab in Wuhan? Did it occur in a wet market there in Wuhan? Did it occur somewhere else? And the answer to that is: We don’t know,” Army General Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told a news conference, according to Reuters.

    Previous lab leaks, 250 wild bats flying around and biting researchers...

    The problem with this analysis is there it's it's ignoring warnings made before this event about handling dangerous viruses in Labs and also documented escapes previously which have taken place in China and also elsewhere.
    That's why what Professor Ebright says, who is a Gadol in the field, is important.

    What's the nafka mina?
    If it came from a Chinese lab, then China has committed a crime against humanity.
    But if it came from a wet market, well let's remember that Swine Flu and the original SARS also did and that China also promised twice to shut down wet markets and then didn't. Which again means a crime against humanity.

    Warnings prove there was a high risk it this happening. Now that it has happened, there is a high probability that the warnings were warranted and sadly unheeded.
    A bit like zionism, which warned there is no future for jews in Europe. Even after the holocaust, a large section of orthodoxy see no truth in Herzl 'S understanding of politics , antisemitism and it's culmination in the shoah.


    It's not yet been demonstrated if a modified virus was engineered by China. However, it may be.

  6. It maybe that you make untrue claims!
    Possibility does not automatically become true

    Or, several escapes have happened in the past, but were contained. In science, rarely if ever is there 100% proof. 95% is a good outcome.
    If we look at trends, it's only a matter of time until there's a leak from a lab turns into a pandemic. So there is high probability that this leaked from a lab.
    The more evidence of exposure, sloppy practices and cover ups, the higher that probability gets.

    It also doesn't constitute apple Pie. I didn't claim it is proof.

  10. This is America. We routinely find people guilty and obligate them to pay money based on the principle of the "preponderance-of-the-evidence."

    This is America. We routinely jail people based on the principle "proof beyond a reasonable doubt."

    So: no evidence of Chinese criminal behavior. PLENTY of evidence of negligence. And that's in regard to notifying the rest of the world, forget about where it started. But if we include the warnings, the sloppy lab, AND the cover-up, the Chinese are AT LEAST indicted for criminal behavior.

    Donald Trump mishandled the crisis. But you know, he didn't really get any info that wasn't publicly available. So just about the whole world mishandled the crisis if we use the standard applied to Donald Trump.

    Oh...did I just defend the worst President of the USA in history? I publicly retract. Please don't push me out a window Russian-style or disappear me Chinese-style or deplatform me American-style.
