veteranstoday--2020-05-07--Found: The Source of the Pandemic, Pentagon Run Bat Research Lab in Caucuses (formatting fixed)

Project G-2101 : Pentagon biolab discovered MERS and SARS-like coronaviruses in bats The Lugar Center scientists collected 450 bats in total in 2012 and 2014 ( photos : Lela Urushadze , Zoonotic pathogens and their molecular epidemiological characteric in Georgian bats , Dissertation , Ilia State University , Tbilisi , Georgia , 2018 ) Bat samples were shipped to CDC , Atlanta , for screening for pathogens ( source : Lela Urushadze , The First Bat Survey for Emerging Zoonotic Pathogens in Georgia ) Two years ago , I investigated an alleged laboratory accident at the Lugar Center , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Tbilisi , which had resulted in the death of two Filipinos working in the laboratory .
The death cases were hidden by the local authorities but I recorded on camera witnesses who testified about this tragic incident .
However , what then seemed to me to be a local issue , turned out to be part of a bigger story .
The Lugar Center in Georgia is just one of the many Pentagon biolaboratories in 25 countries across the world .
They are funded by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency ( DTRA ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ – Cooperative Biological Engagement Program ( CBEP ) , and are located in former Soviet Union countries such as Georgia and Ukraine , the Middle East , South East Asia and Africa .
Much of their work is classified and includes projects on bio-agents and pathogens with pandemic potential .
The first known case of use of biological weapons in our history was 250 years ago when the British gave blankets infected with smallpox to the indigenous people of North America .
As a result , a great many of them died and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whole continent .
Biological weapons are definitely much more effective than nuclear weapons .
The use of nuclear weapons leaves traces : an airplane taking off from an aerodrome and launching a rocket , a large number of participants in preparation of an attack .
Therefore , the perpetrators can be easily detected and held to account .
Conversely , viruses can be used as weapons , though , they do not leave such immediate or discernible traces and it takes only a few crazy people who have decided to kill millions .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ weapons can potentially destroy up to two thirds of the global population in just a year .
Our world is one big metropolis and even one virus engineered in a laboratory would be able to fulfil this goal in a short period of time , at a minimal cost and without leaving traces to the perpetrator .
Below , I am presenting information about what I have discovered while investigating Pentagon biolaboratories abroad .
The Lugar Center , a $ 161 million Pentagon-funded biolaboratory in Georgia ’ s capital Tbilisi , discovered coronaviruses @ @ @ @ @ @ @ early as 2014 , documents have revealed .
Furthermore , in 2017 the Pentagon launched a $ 6.5 million program in cooperation with the Lugar Center involving genetic studies on coronaviruses in 5,000 bats collected in Georgia , Armenia , Azerbaijan , Turkey and Jordan .
Coincidentally , the same Pentagon contractor tasked with the US DoD bat-research program – Eco Health Alliance , USA , also collected bats and isolated coronaviruses along with Chinese scientists at the Wuhan Institute of Virology .
Eco Health Alliance received a $ 3.7 million grant from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ NIH ) to collect and study coronaviruses in bats in China from 2014 to 2019 .
The Lugar Center sparked controversy about possible dual-use research in 2018 when leaked documents revealed that US diplomats in Georgia were involved in trafficking of frozen human blood and pathogens for a secret military program .
Documents reveal that the Lugar Center also studied coronaviruses in bats .
In 2012 the US Center for Disease Control ( CDC ) collected and sampled 236 bats for research in Georgia in cooperation with the Lugar Center .
The project @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Threat Reduction Agency ( DTRA ) .
Part of the samples were shipped to CDC ( Atlanta ) , for screening for multiple pathogens , another part was stored at the Lugar Center for further studies .
In 2014 the US Center for Disease Control ( CDC ) launched a second project “ Emerging zoonotic pathogens in Georgian bats ” along with Georgian scientists at the Lugar Center .
The project was funded by the International Science and Technology Center ( ISTC ) .
Former Bioweapon Scientists working at the Lugar Center ISTC @ @ @ @ @ @ @ project in Georgia in 2014 , was established in 1992 as a non-proliferation international program , providing former biological and chemical weapons scientists with new opportunities for sustainable , peaceful employment .
Seven of the Georgian scientists involved in the ISTC bat research project in Georgia turn out to be former bioweapon scientists who had previously worked on the development of bioweapons , according to the ISTC project documents .
Among them is Paata Imnadze , the deputy-director of the Georgian National Center for Disease Control ( NCDC ) where the Lugar Center @ @ @ @ @ @ @ _blank ” rel= ” noopener noreferrer ” > published on the University of Michigan ’ s website .

The Lugar Center discovered coronaviruses , similar to the epidemic SARS and MERS coronaviruses , according to the ISTC project manager and Lugar Center virologist Lela Urushadze .
These results were published by Urushadze in her dissertation submitted to the Ilia @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and MERS CoV have a pandemic potential and already caused global epidemics in 2003 and 2013 respectively .
The World Health Organization ( WHO ) has estimated the overall fatality rate for SARS ( Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome ) patients at 14 % to 15 % , and for MERS ( Middle East Respiratory Syndrome ) – at 35 % .
Below are excerpts from the Urushadze ’ s dissertation : “ Based on our research , we can say that bats in Georgia are reservoirs for such bacterial and viral pathogens as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , which are likely to have pandemic potential ” , according to Lela Urushadze .
She explains : “ In total we have captured 450 bats using nets and hand nets from eight different roosts .

VERSIONE ORIGINALE IN ITALIANO
A terrible influenza knocked out numerous athletes during the Wuhan Military Games. This was revealed by the French pentathlete Elodie Clouvel to the television station Loire7. Then the Italian swordsman Matteo Tagliariol, Treviso champion of fencing and Olympic Gold Medal in Beijing 2008, reiterated this in his statements to the local Italian newspapers.
More than a month after the rumors reported by VT, thanks to the report by Senior Editor Gordon Duff, even the mainstream media have turned the spotlight on that sporting event that could have been the occasion of contagion between China, first country affected by the outbreak of SARS-CoV-2, and the USA, the country most severely cut down by the pandemic with more than 71,000 deaths which make the 4,000 in the Chinese province of Hubei look like nothing.
Who has infected who? This remains for now a mystery in which theories of a worldwide conspiracy are increasingly founded after the declarations of the winner of the Nobel Prize for Medicine, the French virologist Luc Montagnier, on the traces of HIV-1 inside Covid-19 which would prove, according to him, the creation in the laboratory.
The name of the new strain of CoronaVirus derives from its discovery in December 2019 by the doctor hero Li Wenliang, persecuted by the Government for his revelations and then killed by the disease in circumstances made mysterious by Chinese military secrecy.
But now the statements of two athletes who participated in the October Military Games supports the hypothesis that the new Acute Respiratory Syndrome (Sars from the acronym in English) appeared at least two months earlier.
And with it the suspicion is strengthened that the epidemic did not spread by chance but as “a poison spread by a rich country” as claimed by the metropolitan cardinal of Sri Lanka, who became a little intelligence expert after the massacre in churches of his country occurred in Easter 2019 for the explosive attacks of ISIS suicide bombers supported by some foreign countries.
«To raise the suspicions, already circulating in recent weeks, were the latest statements by the French pentathlete Elodie Clouvel who, interviewed by the television broadcaster Loire7 to discuss the postponement of the Tokyo Olympics, explained that he did not fear a possible contamination from Covid- 19: “I think that with Valentin (Belaud, another pentathlete) we already had the coronavirus because we were in Wuhan for the Military Games. We got sick, he missed three days of training, I had problems never before. And when we have talked to a military doctor, he told us: I think you have already had it because most of the delegation got sick”».
This was reported by the Italian agency Ansa, dedicating in the afternoon the opening of its information portal to the news but then reporting the inevitable official denial of France.
The French delegation that participated in the Military Games was made up of 406 people including 281 athletes and, following suspicions of possible cases of Covid-19 on returning from Wuhan, the Ministry of Armed Forces, which had not been officially expressed so far, has released a clarification that denies that some athletes have contracted the virus.
«The Ministry wishes to recall that when the World Military Summer Games took place from 18 to 27 October 2019, in Wuhan, China, the epidemic linked to Covid-19 was not known at the time – reads the note published by the team -. The first Covid-19 case was reported by China to the WHO only on December 31, two months after the event ended».
The patch is worse than the hole, a seamstress would say. The attempt to hide behind the finger of the “official discovery” is in fact too trivial a justification to be considered reliable. While the declarations of the Italian swordsman Mario Tagliarol are worthy of great attention, who told the Gazzettino, the newspaper of the Veneto region, about his terrible alleged flu in detail.
«Yes, I was sick after Wuhan. I’m fine now. I don’t know if I got the coronavirus: I have never been tested and I don’t have the scientific skills to know it – explains the 37-year-old athlete – as soon as possible, when the national health service will no longer be saturated with the requests of people who really need treatment, surely I will go to be tested».
The Treviso fencer of the Italian Air Force (Aeronautica MIlitare), who won an Olympic gold medal in the individual sword specialty, had been in the Chinese city between 18 and 27 October last year to participate in the World Military Games, which attracted over 10 thousand athletes from various nations.
«After the World Championships in Wuhan at the end of October, many athletes had become ill with a flu. And I too was sick – explains Tagliariol – I developed an acute flu form, which affected the lungs, from which I recovered by taking drugs and with a course perhaps a little longer than usual. There can be two things: it may be that I am asthmatic and consequently the flu forms often hit me in the lungs or, given the symptoms, there is the possibility that he was hit by the coronavirus».
«We all got sick, 6 out of 6 in the apartment and many also from other delegations. So much so that the medical supplies had almost run out of medicine. I had a fever and cough for 3 weeks – added the Italian swordsman according to the ANSA report – and the antibiotics did nothing; then it fell to my son and my partner. I’m not a doctor, but the symptoms seem to be those of covid-19».
In the last hours the media have reported a softer version of the same Tagliarol that has made further statements based on greater caution, reiterating that he has no certainty of having contracted the Covid-19.
At the time when the scientific community has even targeted Professor Montagnier trying to refute his revelation on the presence of sequences of HIV-1 in the new strain of CoronaVirus despite the French virologist winning the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2008 precisely for having discovered the viral agent of AIDS, it is very easy to imagine that the Air Force athlete has received very strong pressure.
The big media, however, continue to ignore or define the conspiracy theory of biological warfare, escaped from a laboratory or deliberately spread (for example with nano-drones as supported by intelligence sources), although it is the only one able to explain the pandemonium caused by SARS-CoV-2 that has made skyrocketing on the world stock exchanges the actions of some unscrupulous pharmaceutical company, already suspected of having tested bacteriological weapons on human guinea pigs with many deaths, thanks to their antivirals and research on vaccines.
In the next Wuhangate 7 report we will see which are the 20 US laboratories reported to the UN in relation to the Biological Weapons Convention which had the technical capabilities to create highly dangerous viruses and have developed delicate research on “recombinants”. Some of which also kept hidden at the United Nations too!

veteranstoday--2020-05-08--COVID May 8, 2020 An Intel Drop, White House Hiding a 500,000 Death Figure

We begin with the deal breaker of all time .
COVID is supposed to be a bat virus , a natural bat virus , unmodified , supposedly from China , right ?
Name one animal that can ’ t get COVID ?
The folks in the White House mostly went to business school .
They had statistics classes and they all know numbers .
You can ’ t steal without being able to count or at least without being able to hire someone who counts , as in Trump ’ s case .
The numbers we are given are fake @ @ @ @ @ @ @ big fake .
They didn ’ t work and they don ’ t work .
So , China tested and locked down and lost 4600 total .
We didn ’ t and have lost , and we will show you how we get this , 167,500 dead now , in the ground or in a hospital with the plug not yet pulled .
Long story here , long and nasty and lots of lies .
There are 1.4 million case out there and every single case will eventually resolve .
Over 300,000 have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ % did so unfavorably , not 1 % but 26 % .
We believe that the resolved death figure from the first 3 months will cut in half and we will show you how we predict this through a model .
This would be great news except that the White House has given out the figures .7 % .
We think the numbers will cut to 13 % of infected dying because we are going to simply run out of old people to kill .
Problem here , of course , is I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ figure is roughly 18.57142857142857 times higher than the one the White House and Fox News are peddling to the “ no worse than the flu ” gang .
Then , when we checked , real flu deaths last year weren ’ t 30,000 but closer to a number between 2,000 and 6,000 ( with estimates on the politicized CDC website faked ) In my little town , 21 have died of COVID .
Last year we didn ’ t have a flu death , not one .
We began with 2000 predicted deaths @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 3000 then to 30,000 .
All the while they knew , it was 500,000 and that number is dependent on broad testing and a vaccine along with other treatments .
Each of these factors was supposed to massage the curve but , due to Trump ’ s foot dragging , none came online and still haven ’ t .
Trump blocked testing in order to keep markets high and pushed up deaths 50 fold in doing so .
If we tested , we would be open now like the countries that did test @ @ @ @ @ @ @ testing would have pushed up infection rates and crashed stocks , temporarily .
Instead , we chose not to test , which pushed up deaths , pushed them up to an incredible number which , today sits at 167,500 dead and certain to die of those already diagnosed so far .
This is the real number .
Let ’ s start with real stats , not the lies you are getting out of both Trump and Fauci .
These are the magic numbers 5 percent of those who have tested positive and have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ percent of those who have tested positive , half of those hospitalized ( 16 percent ) will die ( or more ) 13 percent of all positive tested patients will die Let ’ s check our numbers and see how our prediction works : The US COVID stats are , in the next few hours anyway , the following : X .16 for those who are hospitalized equals 87,500 hospitalized but certain to die ( 50 to 70 percent of hospitalized patients die of COVID ) This gives us 12 % , one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , please remember , an estimate taken from the lowest range of hospital deaths .
Now let ’ s look at where we are going : If we hold to the numbers : 8 percent of those who test positive die ( half of those hospitalized , at the rate of 16 percent of positive tests , based on figures into the second week of may , less the existing 5 % that have already died Then we double this in 30 days and add another 167,000 who will be dead or certain @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , call them what you will .
This gives us a rolling count as it were of 335,000 dead/dying while the daily numbers of infected grow or plateau but certainly lead to , minimally 500,000 deaths If we are wrong ?
Then , as there is no potential for vaccine or herd immunity whatsoever , we get to do the whole thing over again… Until there was none…..

The real figure is roughly 18.57142857142857 times higher than the one the White House and Fox News are peddling to the “no worse than the flu” gang.
Then, when we checked, real flu deaths last year weren’t 30,000 but closer to a number between 2,000 and 6,000 (with estimates on the politicized CDC website faked)
In my little town, 21 have died of COVID. Last year we didn’t have a flu death, not one.
We began with 2000 predicted deaths from COVID. Then it went to 3000 then to 30,000.
All the while they knew, it was 500,000 and that number is dependent on broad testing and a vaccine along with other treatments.
Each of these factors was supposed to massage the curve but, due to Trump’s foot dragging, none came online and still haven’t. Trump blocked testing in order to keep markets high and pushed up deaths 50 fold in doing so.

Instead, we chose not to test, which pushed up deaths, pushed them up to an incredible number which, today sits at 167,500 dead and certain to die of those already diagnosed so far.
This is the real number.
Remember the numbers, 5 and 8
Let’s start with real stats, not the lies you are getting out of both Trump and Fauci.
Remember the numbers, 5 and 8
These are the magic numbers
5 percent of those who have tested positive and have “resolved” have already died
8 percent of those who have tested positive, half of those hospitalized (16 percent) will die (or more)
Thus:
13 percent of all positive tested patients will die
Let’s check our numbers and see how our prediction works:
The US COVID stats are, in the next few hours anyway, the following:
1.4 million test positive
80,000 dead
225,000 recovered
305,000 “resolved” cases
74 percent of positive tested patients recover
26 percent of positive tested patients die
1,095,000 positive tested patients “unresolved”
X .16 for those who are hospitalized equals
175,000 mostly on ventilators X .5 equals
87,500 hospitalized but certain to die (50 to 70 percent of hospitalized patients die of COVID)
167,500 now dead or dying
This gives us 12%, one percentage point low, but this is, please remember, an estimate taken from the lowest range of hospital deaths.
Now let’s look at where we are going:
If we hold to the numbers:
8 percent of those who test positive die (half of those hospitalized, at the rate of 16 percent of positive tests, based on figures into the second week of may, less the existing 5% that have already died
Then we double this in 30 days and add another 167,000 who will be dead or certain to die, but not yet dead, call them what you will.
This gives us a rolling count as it were of 335,000 dead/dying while the daily numbers of infected grow or plateau but certainly lead to, minimally 500,000 deaths
If we are wrong?
A million dead?
Then, as there is no potential for vaccine or herd immunity whatsoever, we get to do the whole thing over again…
Until there was none…..


veteranstoday--2020-05-08--NEO: The Blame Game but Where Does it Lead?

By Henry Kamens for VT and New Eastern Outlook The world has rarely , if ever , seen anything like this Covid-19 crisis .
Consequently there are few signposts for how to deal with it .
But we are still human beings , and on that basis alone , there are certain things we know .
Trump is dealing with it by trying to hold back money due to the WHO , which he is calling an instrument of lying and damage control for the Chinese .
It is true that the head of the WHO is a very shady @ @ @ @ @ @ @ corrupt dealings .
But when even mouthpieces of US policy are publishing articles with such titles as How WHO Became China ’ s Coronavirus Accomplice , you can see that these allegations are part of a game , not things designed to identify problems and solutions .
Allegations are being presented as facts , not to add to understanding but to shift the blame , as if that is all that matters during a deadly pandemic .
Apparently , after initial denials and cover-ups , China has successfully contained the COVID-19 outbreak .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ exported many cases to the rest of the world , so goes the latest script .
COVID-19 is giving us more insight into the corruption of organisations that we once trusted without question , and government agencies who are supposed to be looking out for our health and well-being .
We are coming to question statistics that few have ever questioned before , such as numbers of deaths and why people have died , and how viruses in general spread .
For example , when we hear about the number of COVID-19 deaths @ @ @ @ @ @ @ these people died from COVID-19 itself and how many simply had tested for COVID-19 , but died of something else – or if it is even possible to draw such a line .
Nor do we know if the figures are recorded the same way everywhere , even if they are truthful – what may be listed as a COVID-19 fatality in one place might be categorised differently elsewhere , based on both medical opinion and policy .
The way statistics are used at a time of pandemic reminds me of the Mark @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t Lie but Liars Figure.
” Such an expression fits much of the data we are being presented with by government and the business community alike .
Another quote along these lines is the one about three kinds of lies – “ lies , damned lies , and statistics .
The data has never been fully reliable , and possibly could never be , unless there those collecting it be very active , widespread testing .
The government in South Korea has taken that path .
I would also like to think that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more reported cases than Georgia or Azerbaijan , although I admit that the Georgian authorities also don ’ t have strong reasons to be insincere in the numbers they are publishing .
In the US , however , the data methodology is clear – Don ’ t test , don ’ t tell .
We don ’ t know how many people are actually infected with COVID-19 because there aren ’ t enough tests to determine this , and this was a deliberate policy from day one .
So we come to question @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and how many have actually died from COVID-19 and its complications , which seems to depend on what you can pin on the Chinese .
The main activities of those entrusted to address this pandemic are recrimination , denial and finger-pointing .
Even the Chinese are blaming high officials .

The world has rarely, if ever, seen anything like this Covid-19 crisis. Consequently there are few signposts for how to deal with it. But we are still human beings, and on that basis alone, there are certain things we know.
Trump is dealing with it by trying to hold back money due to the WHO, which he is calling an instrument of lying and damage control for the Chinese. It is true that the head of the WHO is a very shady character tied in with drug companies and corrupt dealings. But when even mouthpieces of US policy are publishing articles with such titles as How WHO Became China’s Coronavirus Accomplice, you can see that these allegations are part of a game, not things designed to identify problems and solutions.
Allegations are being presented as facts, not to add to understanding but to shift the blame, as if that is all that matters during a deadly pandemic. Apparently, after initial denials and cover-ups, China has successfully contained the COVID-19 outbreak. But this is not before it has exported many cases to the rest of the world, so goes the latest script.
The buck stopped with Harry Truman
COVID-19 is giving us more insight into the corruption of organisations that we once trusted without question, and government agencies who are supposed to be looking out for our health and well-being. We are coming to question statistics that few have ever questioned before, such as numbers of deaths and why people have died, and how viruses in general spread.
For example, when we hear about the number of COVID-19 deaths we are not told how many of these people died from COVID-19 itself and how many simply had tested for COVID-19, but died of something else – or if it is even possible to draw such a line. Nor do we know if the figures are recorded the same way everywhere, even if they are truthful – what may be listed as a COVID-19 fatality in one place might be categorised differently elsewhere, based on both medical opinion and policy.
The way statistics are used at a time of pandemic reminds me of the Mark Twain quote, “Figures Don’t Lie but Liars Figure.” Such an expression fits much of the data we are being presented with by government and the business community alike. Another quote along these lines is the one about three kinds of lies – “lies, damned lies, and statistics.
The data has never been fully reliable, and possibly could never be, unless there those collecting it be very active, widespread testing. The government in South Korea has taken that path. I would also like to think that this is the reason Armenia has had more reported cases than Georgia or Azerbaijan, although I admit that the Georgian authorities also don’t have strong reasons to be insincere in the numbers they are publishing.
In the US, however, the data methodology is clear – Don’t test, don’t tell. We don’t know how many people are actually infected with COVID-19 because there aren’t enough tests to determine this, and this was a deliberate policy from day one. So we come to question official documents, briefings, numbers infected and how many have actually died from COVID-19 and its complications, which seems to depend on what you can pin on the Chinese.
The main activities of those entrusted to address this pandemic are recrimination, denial and finger-pointing. Even the Chinese are blaming high officials. The “Blame Game” is the best way to describe what is going on now.
Every cloud has a trough and a pie
I don’t want to see who is gaining from this turmoil. But there may be long term benefits in finding out, as this could help explain away what happened to much of the artificial wealth created on paper since 2008, it has disappeared, and the historic highs in the stock markets.
I keep reading about how the post-corona world will be very different. On the other hand, too often in human history have things gone back to normal without many lessons being learned.

The real story here is not the official narrative but the folks with big households, people who cannot work from home, or all the physicians or emergency workers, plus grocery store staff, delivery workers, the postal service, etc., etc. They are the very people whose jobs and lives have been mucked about with by politicians pursuing ideology for the sake of it, Soviet-style, as if that somehow is the answer for everything.
In the meantime everybody is blaming everybody, even platforms such as Zoom, whose online conferencing and virtual classes have come under scrutiny for security breaches and suspected insider trading. It is true that its top management dumped stock before this scandal became mainstream news, but online platforms do not spread viruses that kill humans, or prevent them.
Where does it end?

If the Russians are doing it, there must be a bad political reason for it, as Russians can only try and help resolve the problem if they want to gain something at the end of it.
Naturally Russian health officials are also in Italy to find out about the specific strain which is affecting that country, as all strains do not kill with the same effectiveness. They have an interest in doing this because this is as close to a post-use bio weapons scenario that you can get without a mass kill off.
Where was NATO and EU unity when Italy needed it? As one Italian doctor shared, “Good old Donald, he talked on the phone with our useless Prime Minister Giuseppe and then sent him a check of 100 million dollars overnight.”
Looking at the numbers, we need to consider the average age in Italy and how they categorise patients as having COVID-19. As in the US and elsewhere, many deaths are being attributed to the virus when they are not a direct product of it.

The COVID-19 which has hit Italy and Iran, and now Spain and the UK, is not the same strain as the one seen in Georgia and elsewhere. Georgia has seen only three deaths so far, at least officially. Credit is being given to its healthcare system and professionals, calling it Georgia’s coronavirus miracle.
“So successful has Georgia been in keeping the virus at bay, that governments around the world are now looking at how the small Caucasus country has managed to control the spread of Covid-19 so well.”

But now Georgia is being presented as a model, to save the reputations of countries which won’t admit they are lying about the nature and cause of the infections. The same countries which won’t admit that the Richard E. Lugar Centre in Tbilisi is a bioweapons lab, exporting diseases such as these to global flashpoints and testing them on an unwitting domestic population.
Words without songs

The same can be said about COVID data, there are many parameters (incl. statistics) influencing outcome in individual countries, so difficult to extract sensible info from differences alone.
Clearly there is a good-will aspect of Russia giving aid, even if some sources in the West claim that they also gather intelligence. Frankly, I have no clue but I assume that the Italian government has calculated the risk. The Russian military people who have arrived in Italy are indeed mostly from the Centre of Research on Bacteriological Protection of the Russian Ministry of Defence.

Pardon us for living
Something far more sinister is going on than meets the eye. The well is too deep; we can only do so much to get to the bottom. It is like they want to reboot the global system, write off much toxic debt from the books and draw attention to how they want us to think we ended up here in the first place.

But the board of Battelle is most revealing.
It includes characters such as John K. Welch, formerly of General Dynamics and the US Naval Academy Foundation. It was he who ran Gaddafi’s chemical warfare programme, and when Gaddafi was attacked, he called Welch to bail him out, and Welch went to Cairo to ask Israel for help.
