Did he deliberately sicken the world?
I wouldn’t put it past him.

World turns to China to come clean.
No, I won’t be holding my breath, either.

How China corrupted the WHO response to the virus.
[Afternoon update]
Heh. Wuhan lab changes sign to “0 Days Since Accidentally Releasing A Virus.”
It it obtains samples like a virology lab
If it breeds hosts like a virology lab
If it takes down interns web bios like a virology lab….
World turns to China to come clean, … while begging China to continue supplying the vitally needed medical equipment they now depend on due to outsourcing.
I don’t think Xi did it, because he appears to have more to lose than he has to gain. He wrecks the Western economies, stops the Hong Kong protests, but also wrecks the Chinese economy and risks civil war.
But I wouldn’t be at all surprised if some of his opponents in China did it, because it’s a good way to push Xi out of power.
Nor would I be surprised if a globalist like Soros or Gates did it, because they don’t seem to like Xi either.
Bear in mind that the premise is that Xi made this decision after it was already apparent that China would suffer a major outbreak (and thus the downsides for China would happen anyway). At that juncture, it makes strategic sense to spread the virus worldwide – and is a fit for their actions, especially the “faulty” test kits and protective gear they have sent around the world (sabotaged is far more likely).
It’s also a point that if China wants to make a move on Taiwan and perhaps Japan and/or the Philippines, there is not better time than now. This worries me – especially with one of our deployable carriers in the Pacific out of action.
I think it needs to be re-affirmed by the US government that a serious bio-war attack will be met with a nuclear response.
Xi may or may not have created this virus. I doubt he did. But he stopped all domestic travel and let international travel go on for several days. Call that what you want, but it was no accident.
