Another
bombshell "conspiracy" raising serious questions over the coronavirus
pandemic and China's biological weapons research and espionage programs
goes mainstream.
A now viral investigative report based on a newly released FBI document authored by no less than the Chemical and Biological Intelligence Unit of the FBI’s Weapons of Mass Destruction Directorate (WMDD) finds that a
Chinese scientist was caught under extremely suspicious circumstances
transporting vials believed to contain the deadly MERS and SARS viruses
into the United States.
Illustrative file image via USA Today“In late November 2018, just over a year before the first
coronavirus case was identified in Wuhan, China, U.S. Customs and Border
Protection agents at Detroit Metro Airport stopped a Chinese biologist
with three vials labeled 'Antibodies' in his luggage,” the lengthy report by Yahoo News begins.
“Inspection of the writing on the vials and the stated recipient led
inspection personnel to believe the materials contained within the vials
may be viable Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) materials,” the report reads.
The unnamed scientist claimed he was asked to deliver the vials to a
US institute, though the FBI report also fails to identify the
recipient. “But the FBI concluded that the incident, and two other cases cited in the report, were part of an alarming pattern,” Yahoo News reports.
“The Weapons of Mass Destruction Directorate assesses foreign
scientific researchers who transport undeclared and undocumented
biological materials into the United States in their personal carry-on
and/or checked luggage almost certainly present a US biosecurity risk,” the FBI report states.
“The WMDD makes this assessment with high confidence based on liaison reporting with direct access,” the FBI report adds.
「WMDOはこの見立てを確信している、」とFBIの報告書は加える。
The
report cites US military experts who speculate it could be part of a
broader Chinese program aimed at stealing US state secrets and research,
and further that such foreign nationals caught with the materials might
be unwitting mules, but regardless the case is part of an "alarming
pattern".
Other additional and more recent instances detailed in the report,
such as in September 2019, detailed a separate case of a Chinese
national's attempt to sneak vials of H1N1 influenza samples into Dallas.
Needless to say, as we reviewed precisely in past reporting related
to the Wuhan Institute of Virology and its 'coincidental' proximity to
the market where COVID-19 is claimed to have first emerged, the
potential for deadly pathogens to 'escape' through mishandling during
such haphazard airport trips by individuals trying to sneak vials across
borders is high.
And this is where the Yahoo News report pivots to the subject and main questions of our own reporting of two months ago, which readers may remember, was deeply triggering for Buzzfeed
and others who set themselves up as gatekeepers policing and ensuring
acceptance of only what they narrowly deem 'acceptable' analysis and
questions: "the FBI appears to be concerned with dual-use research that would be used for bioterrorism,"the report emphasizes.
Digging deeper into what we were all told is supposed to be a mere deranged conspiracy theory the Yahoo News authors then make the direct connection between COVID-19 and the aforementioned potential for bioterrorism:
The report, which came out more than two months before the
World Health Organization learned of a cluster of pneumonia cases in
Wuhan that turned out to be COVID-19, appears to be part of a larger FBI
concern about China’s involvement with scientific research in the U.S. While the report refers broadly to foreign researchers, all three cases cited involve Chinese nationals.
And just to underscore further potentially what we're dealing with in
terms of likely threats, the FBI itself said it approached and
investigated the Detroit MERS/SARS airport case and others ultimately
out of biosecurity and bioterrorism concerns.
我々が直面する潜在的脅威を過小評価しているに過ぎないが、FBI自身はこう言う、デトロイト空港でのMERS/SARS事件を調べてみて、他にもバイオセキュリティが欠如しており、バイオテロが懸念される。
"The FBI report refers to both biosecurity, which typically refers to the intentional misuse of pathogens, such as for bioterrorism, and biosafety, which covers accidental release. The FBI declined to comment on the report,"it continues.
So it now appears the FBI itself has long been closely following
Chinese military bioweapons research as well as dangerous pathogens'
mishandling and 'misuse' in relation to unique deadly respiratory
viruses, and asking the relevant and obvious questions. Glad to know
we're not alone.

最後の2段落だけ訳をいれました。 Big Silver-Stock Potential Adam Hamilton February 7, 2020 2689 Words The silver miners’ stocks are looking interesting. While they really lagged silver’s surge on gold’s bull-market-breakout rally last summer, their upleg since remains intact. Gold stocks’ own upleg peaked in early September. And silver itself remains wildly undervalued relative to gold, overdue to mean revert dramatically higher. When that happens during gold’s next upleg, the silver stocks have big potential to soar. Like the global silver market is vastly smaller than gold’s, silver stocks are a proportionally-little fraction of the precious-metals miners. As a small subset of a usually-ignored contrarian sector, the silver stocks often languish in obscurity. For decades there wasn’t even a silver-stock index, making sector analysis difficult. ...
米国はよく理解してませんが、日本の場合では量的緩和で日銀が国債買い上げした資金は日銀当座預金にそのままです、市中には流れていません。でもNHKのニュース等では「ジャブジャブ」という表現をアナウンサーが使い、さらに丁寧に水道の蛇口からお金が吐き出される画像まで示してくれます。これって心理効果が大きいですよね。量的緩和とは何かを7時のニュースや新聞でこれ以上丁寧に解説するのはそう簡単ではありません。一般の人も株式をやっている人も「イメージ」で捉える以上はそう簡単にできません。多くの人は量的緩和とはなにか、を理解していないと私は想像しています。 ただし、国債を買い上げるので長期金利が低下し住宅ローン金利等が下がったのは確実な効果です。一方で長短金利差が少なくなると銀行のビジネスモデルが成り立たなくなりますが。 This Is The One Chart Every Trader Should Have "Taped To Their Screen" by Tyler Durden Sat, 01/19/2019 - 18:55 After a year of tapering, the Fed’s balance sheet finally captured the market’s attention during the last three months of 2018. 一年間のテーパリング後、FEDバランスシートがとうとう市場の注目をあびることになった、2018年の最後の3ヶ月だ。 By the start of the fourth quarter, the Fed had finished raising the caps on monthly roll-off of its balance sheet to the full $50bn per month (peaking at $30bn USTs, $20bn MBS...
