Yes I believe so. It reminds me of St Paul: Romans 8:22 Future Glory …21that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God. 22We know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until the present time. 23Not only that, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.…

Horrible to even imagine. Or just an international political stunt against China using fake news or some horrible mistakes by labs? ID pics and charts and videos at site. Did China Steal Coronavirus From Canada And Weaponize It? Great Game India Last year a mysterious shipment was caught smuggling Coronavirus from Canada. It was traced to Chinese agents working at a Canadian lab. Subsequent investigation by GreatGameIndia linked the agents to Chinese Biological Warfare Program from where the virus is suspected to have leaked causing the Wuhan Coronavirus outbreak. The Saudi SARS Sample On June 13, 2012 a 60-year-old Saudi man was admitted to a private hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, with a 7-day history of fever, cough, expectoration, and shortness of breath. He had no history of cardiopulmonary or renal disease, was receiving no long-term medications, and did not smoke. Egyptian virologist Dr. Ali Mohamed Zaki isolated and identified a previously unknown coronavirus from his lungs. After routine diagnostics failed to identify the causative agent, Zaki contacted Ron Fouchier, a leading virologist at the Erasmus Medical Center (EMC) in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, for advice. Fouchier sequenced the virus from a sample sent by Zaki. Fouchier used a broad-spectrum “pan-coronavirus” real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method to test for distinguishing features of a number of known coronaviruses known to infect humans. This Coronavirus sample was acquired by Scientific Director Dr. Frank Plummer of Canada’s National Microbiology Laboratory (NML) in Winnipeg directly from Fouchier, who received it from Zaki. This virus was reportedly stolen from the Canadian lab by Chinese agents. The Canadian Lab Coronavirus arrived at Canada’s NML Winnipeg facility on May 4, 2013 from the Dutch lab. The Canadian lab grew up stocks of the virus and used it to assess diagnostic tests being used in Canada. Winnipeg scientists worked to see which animal species can be infected with the new virus. Research was done in conjunction with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s national lab, the National Centre for Foreign Animal Diseases which is housed in the same complex as the National Microbiology Laboratory. NML has a long history of offering comprehensive testing services for coronaviruses. It isolated and provided the first genome sequence of the SARS coronavirus and identified another coronavirus NL63 in 2004. This Winnipeg based Canadian lab was targeted by Chinese agents in what could be termed as Biological Espionage. Chinese Biological Espionage In March 2019, in mysterious event a shipment of exceptionally virulent viruses from Canada’s NML ended up in China. The event caused a major scandal with Bio-warfare experts questioning why Canada was sending lethal viruses to China. Scientists from NML said the highly lethal viruses were a potential bio-weapon. Following investigation, the incident was traced to Chinese agents working at NML. Four months later in July 2019, a group of Chinese virologists were forcibly dispatched from the Canadian National Microbiology Laboratory (NML). The NML is Canada’s only level-4 facility and one of only a few in North America equipped to handle the world’s deadliest diseases, including Ebola, SARS, Coronavirus, etc. The NML scientist who was escorted out of the Canadian lab along with her husband, another biologist, and members of her research team is believed to be a Chinese Bio-Warfare agent Xiangguo Qiu. Qiu was the head of the Vaccine Development and Antiviral Therapies Section in the Special Pathogens Program at Canada’s NML. Xiangguo Qiu is an outstanding Chinese scientist born in Tianjin. She primarily received her medical doctor degree from Hebei Medical University in China in 1985 and came to Canada for graduate studies in 1996. Later on, she was affiliated with the Institute of Cell Biology and the Department of Pediatrics and Child Health of the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, not engaged with studying pathogens. But a shift took place, somehow. Since 2006, she has been studying powerful viruses in Canada’s NML. The viruses shipped from the NML to China were studied by her in 2014, for instance (together with the viruses Machupo, Junin, Rift Valley Fever, Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever and Hendra). Infiltrating the Canadian Lab Dr. Xiangguo Qiu is married to another Chinese scientist – Dr. Keding Cheng, also affiliated with the NML, specifically the “Science and Technology Core”. Dr. Cheng is primarily a bacteriologist who shifted to virology. The couple is responsible for infiltrating Canada’s NML with many Chinese agents as students from a range of Chinese scientific facilities directly tied to China’s Biological Warfare Program, namely: Institute of Military Veterinary, Academy of Military Medical Sciences, Changchun Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Chengdu Military Region Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Hubei Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing All of the above four mentioned Chinese Biological Warfare facilities collaborated with Dr. Xiangguo Qiu within the context of Ebola virus, the Institute of Military Veterinary joined a study on the Rift Valley fever virus too, while the Institute of Microbiology joined a study on Marburg virus. Noticeably, the drug used in the latter study – Favipiravir – has been earlier tested successfully by the Chinese Academy of Military Medical Sciences, with the designation JK-05 (originally a Japanese patent registered in China already in 2006), against Ebola and additional viruses. However, the studies by Dr. Qiu are considerably more advanced and apparently vital for the Chinese biological weapons development in case Coronavirus, Ebola, Nipah, Marburg or Rift Valley fever viruses are included therein. The Canadian investigation is ongoing and questions remain whether previous shipments to China of other viruses or other essential preparations, took place from 2006 to 2018, one way or another. Dr. Xiangguo Qiu also collaborated in 2018 with three scientists from the US Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases, Maryland, studying post-exposure immunotherapy for two Ebola viruses and Marburg virus in monkeys; a study supported by the US Defense Threat Reduction Agency. cont'd below
cont'd from above The Wuhan Coronavirus Dr. Xiangguo Qiu made at least five trips over the school year 2017-18 to the above mentioned Wuhan National Biosafety Laboratory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which was certified for BSL4 in January 2017. Moreover, in August 2017, the National Health Commission of China approved research activities involving Ebola, Nipah, and Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever viruses at the Wuhan facility. Coincidentally, the Wuhan National Biosafety Laboratory is located only 20 miles away from the Huanan Seafood Market which is the epicenter of the Coronavirus outbreak dubbed the Wuhan Coronavirus. The Wuhan National Biosafety Laboratory is housed at the Chinese military facility Wuhan Institute of Virology linked to China’s Biological Warfare Program. It was the first ever lab in the country designed to meet biosafety-level-4 (BSL-4) standards – the highest biohazard level, meaning that it would be qualified to handle the most dangerous pathogens. In January 2018, the lab was operational ‘for global experiments on BSL-4 pathogens,’ wrote Guizhen Wu in the journal Biosafety and Health. ‘After a laboratory leak incident of SARS in 2004, the former Ministry of Health of China initiated the construction of preservation laboratories for high-level pathogens such as SARS, coronavirus, and pandemic influenza virus,’ wrote Guizhen Wu. Coronavirus Bioweapon The Wuhan institute has studied coronaviruses in the past, including the strain that causes Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, or SARS, H5N1 influenza virus, Japanese encephalitis, and dengue. Researchers at the institute also studied the germ that causes anthrax – a biological agent once developed in Russia. “Coronaviruses (particularly SARS) have been studied in the institute and are probably held therein,” said Dany Shoham, a former Israeli military intelligence officer who has studied Chinese biowarfare. He said. “SARS is included within the Chinese BW program, at large, and is dealt with in several pertinent facilities.” James Giordano, a neurology professor at Georgetown University and senior fellow in Biowarfare at the U.S. Special Operations Command, said China’s growing investment in bio-science, looser ethics around gene-editing and other cutting-edge technology and integration between government and academia raise the spectre of such pathogens being weaponized. That could mean an offensive agent, or a modified germ let loose by proxies, for which only China has the treatment or vaccine. “This is not warfare, per se,” he said. “But what it’s doing is leveraging the capability to act as global saviour, which then creates various levels of macro and micro economic and bio-power dependencies.” China’s Biological Warfare Program In a 2015 academic paper, Shoham – of Bar-Ilan’s Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies – asserts that more than 40 Chinese facilities are involved in bio-weapon production. China’s Academy of Military Medical Sciences actually developed an Ebola drug – called JK-05 — but little has been divulged about it or the defence facility’s possession of the virus, prompting speculation its Ebola cells are part of China’s bio-warfare arsenal, Shoham told the National Post. Ebola is classified as a “category A” bioterrorism agent by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, meaning it could be easily transmitted from person to person, would result in high death rates and “might cause panic.” The CDC lists Nipah as a category C substance, a deadly emerging pathogen that could be engineered for mass dissemination. China’s Biological Warfare Program is believed to be in an advanced stage that includes research and development, production and weaponization capabilities. Its current inventory is believed to include the full range of traditional chemical and biological agents with a wide variety of delivery systems including artillery rockets, aerial bombs, sprayers, and short-range ballistic missiles. Weaponizing Biotech China’s national strategy of military-civil fusion has highlighted biology as a priority, and the People’s Liberation Army could be at the forefront of expanding and exploiting this knowledge. The PLA is pursuing military applications for biology and looking into promising intersections with other disciplines, including brain science, supercomputing, and artificial intelligence. Since 2016, the Central Military Commission has funded projects on military brain science, advanced biomimetic systems, biological and biomimetic materials, human performance enhancement, and “new concept” biotechnology. In 2016, an AMMS doctoral researcher published a dissertation, “Research on the Evaluation of Human Performance Enhancement Technology,” which characterized CRISPR-Cas as one of three primary technologies that might boost troops’ combat effectiveness. The supporting research looked at the effectiveness of the drug Modafinil, which has applications in cognitive enhancement; and at transcranial magnetic stimulation, a type of brain stimulation, while also contending that the “great potential” of CRISPR-Cas as a “military deterrence technology in which China should “grasp the initiative” in development. In 2016, the potential strategic value of genetic information led the Chinese government to launch the National Genebank, which intends to become the world’s largest repository of such data. It aims to “develop and utilize China’s valuable genetic resources, safeguard national security in bioinformatics, and enhance China’s capability to seize the strategic commanding heights” in the domain of Biotechnology Warfare. Chinese military’s interest in biology as an emerging domain of warfare is guided by strategists who talk about potential “genetic weapons” and the possibility of a “bloodless victory.” https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/did-china-steal-coronavirus-canada-and-weaponize-it
More pandering...... Joe Biden: ‘Transgender Equality Is the Civil Rights Issue of Our Time’ “Transgender equality is the civil rights issue of our time,” says a tweet issued Saturday from Joe Biden’s campaign. The declaration comes as Biden strives to keep ahead of Bernie Sanders, who has a long history of supporting legal rights and status for people who say they are transgender. The text implies Biden, if elected president, would fully enforce the transgender ideology on 325 million Americans, whether in sports, the military, K-12 schools, and healthcare. The ideology says people have the government-enforced right to be treated as male or female according to their sense of “gender identity.” But Biden’s tweet also threatens to create a new fissure in the Democrats’ ranks between the influential pro-transgender movement and the small but growing movement of “gender critical” feminists. The gender-critical feminists argue women’s rights can exist only if the government’s recognizes women’s sex, biology, and physiology, regardless of any person’s sense of male or female “gender.” https://www.breitbart.com/politics/...uality-is-the-civil-rights-issue-of-our-time/
This is a Q decoder and on this recording at the 30:35 point he discusses his theory about the direct hit on the Covington Catholic bus. Now if an attorney was being sent a message with this then I would have thought it would be the one who's suing the various media outlets and who has had success with CNN but he believes it's a message to another atty....Cippolone, Pres. Trump's attorney whose alma mater is Covington Catholic!!
Chilling. True, who do we believe anymore. At any rate one would think flights from China would be suspended until they get this virus under control.
This was purely symbolic remember, don't think that just because Bernie's campaign people think people who don't think correctly need to go to gulags and the rich should be guillotined that it is any kind of real threat. https://thewashingtonsentinel.com/puerto-rico-protesters-bring-a-guillotine-to-governors-mansion/ The guillotine protest in Puerto Rico was led by Rene Perez a communist who endorsed Bernie Sanders and is calling for a million person revolution to keep trump from gaining the presidency for another term. Here he is interviewing Bernie back in 16, Bernie is just a real good bud to the young revolutionaries. They like baseball and food lines. A more recent video of Bernie giving a pep talk to the young revolutionary to overthrow the status quo and make sure to include the entire world in it.
The famous American basketball player Kobe Bryant was killed yesterday morning with his eldest daughter, and seven other people onboard a helicopter that crashed against a hillside in dense fog. The local news reports that prior to boarding the helicopter, he attended the 7 AM Mass at Our Lady Queen of Angels parish in Newport Beach. The same parish prayed a rosary in the victims memory this morning with a couple dozen people in attendance. May their souls and all the souls of the faithful departed rest in peace. Amen.
He was a Catholic. He credited a priest with helping him through a dark time. May he and the others with him rest in peace.
What a terrible tragedy. I wonder why they were given special clearance to fly in such dense fog. It was reported that the LA police department said visibility was so poor they grounded their own helicopters.

Notebook: The Plague Next Time January 26, 2020 by sd Will the current outbreak of what they’re calling “coronavirus” turn out to be an issue overplayed in the news, or the real thing? All we know at this point is that one day a pandemic will sweep to the corners of the world, as in the past — a global epidemic. From biblical times to our own, there always has been the next plague. (Prayer need here; shoo it away; there is time.) Few remember or even know that the last time there was a truly monumental flu pandemic (an epidemic that goes globally) was between 1918 and 1920. It infected five hundred million, including denizens of remote Pacific islands and the Arctic, killing fifty to a hundred million (three to five percent of the earth’ populace, which in proportion would come out to 375 million today, more than the entire current U.S. population). Among the victims were Saints Jacinta and Francisco Marto, two of the three seers at Fatíma, Portugal, who died at nine and ten years of age (respectively) in the outbreak. In October 1918, Jacinta told the third seer, older cousin Lucia dos Santos, that Mary had appeared to her and promised to take them to Heaven soon.Both children, utterly unafraid, lingered for months, walking to church to make Eucharistic devotions and prostrating themselves to pray for hours, their heads on the ground as they knelt per the instructions of the angel who had appeared to them. Francisco succumbed in 1919. His younger sister followed soon afterward. On 19 February 1920, Jacinta asked the hospital chaplain who heard her Confession to give her Holy Communion and administer Extreme Unction because, she insisted, she was going to die “the next night” (despite her doctor’s assurances that as yet her condition was not that serious). The next day, Jacinta was dead, dying alone, as she also said she would. Tied with the pandemic, it raised many questions that exactly a century later remain without answers. Was the great Spanish Flu, as it was known, part of what Our Lady was indicating by way of world chastisements (with these two children as willing martyrs)? Is this what might recur in a run of similar prophetic events? Note that the 1918-1920 pandemic came between world wars and at the onset of the Roaring Twenties, just before the Great Depression and fascism. And medical issues. Chief among these: where did the Spanish flu virus, so devastating, originate? The mystery lingers to this day. Some believe the deadly flu started at Fort Riley, Kansas, after strange weather patterns that brought both cold and heat and dust storms that caused the skies to blacken. Others mention Spain (thus the moniker). Still others hypothesize that the flu was spawned in East Asia, a common area for transmission of disease from animals to humans because of dense living conditions. + Claude Hannoun, the leading expert on the 1918 flu for the Pasteur Institute, asserted the former virus was likely to have come from China. It then mutated in the United States near Boston and from there spread to Brest, France, Europe’s battlefields, Europe in general, and then the world at large, with Allied soldiers and sailors as the main disseminators. + If it was China — if that country was the wellspring — it is astounding, for other worldwide plagues, including the great bubonic outbreaks during the Roman Empire (which helped lead to its fall) and the great Black Death of medieval times (which killed a quarter to a third of Europe), both originated in that nation. + What is it about the Land of the Red Dragon (or is that question a self-explainer)? Swine flu. SARS. Avian influenza, H5N1. Now the coronavirus. + At this point, there is no indication of a pandemic. But with a virus that already has been reported several nations in Asia, Europe, Canada, the United States, and Australia, the seeds may be sown. The U.S. State Department on Monday warned against visiting China and said Americans should not travel to the Hubei province, given that the province’s city of Wuhan is ground zero for a new deadly coronavirus. A scientist at Johns Hopkins last year modeled what would happen if a deadly coronavirus reached a pandemic scale. His simulated scenario predicted that 65 million people could die within eighteen months. Might this also have a military origin? Already are the claims the virus was bio-engineered, either escaping from a Chinese lab or planted in the economically important Wuhan region by covert foreign operatives (no reason whatsoever, as yet, to believe the latter). Radio Free Asia this week rebroadcast a local Wuhan television report from 2015 showing China’s most advanced virus research laboratory known as the Wuhan Institute of Virology. The laboratory is the only declared site in China capable of working with deadly viruses. Swine flu and others have also been suspected of being biowarfare agents. If coronavirus is as sly and virulent as many fear, it could indeed erupt as another major sign or “chastisement” — one that few think about, but perhaps the most likely candidate — a pandemic — for major future disasters. https://spiritdailyblog.com/commentary/the-plague-next-time
Trump unveils plan for ‘realistic 2-state’ deal, ‘undivided’ Israeli Jerusalem US President Donald Trump on Tuesday unveiled his long-awaited Israeli-Palestinian peace plan, saying it will enshrine Jerusalem as Israel’s “undivided” capital and enable Israeli sovereignty in parts of the West Bank, while also providing for an eventual Palestinian state with “eastern Jerusalem” as its capital. He hailed the plan as marking “a big step towards peace” for Israel, and said “we have an obligation to humanity” to get the deal done. Speaking at the White House alongside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the US president said support for the plan by both Netanyahu and his election rival, Blue and White party leader Benny Gantz, showed “peace transcends politics in Israel.” “This vision for peace is fundamentally different from past diplomacies,” Trump said. “Even the most well-intentioned plans were light on factual details and heavy on conceptual framework.” He added that his plan was 80-pages long, calling it “the most detailed proposal ever.” “Today, Israel is taking a big step toward peace… Netanyahu informed me that he is willing to endorse the vision as a basis for direct negotiations.” The US president said that the “peace vision” that Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner has been working on for nearly three years calls for a two-state solution, includes detailed maps of territory. He said the future Palestinian state will be contiguous, but would not be able to threaten Israel’s security interests. Trump said his plan includes “a realistic two-state solution,” and that his administration would “work to create a territory for a contiguous Palestinian state in the future” that would “reject terrorism.” He hailed Netanyahu as “willing to endorse the vision as the base for direct negotiations.” Calling it “a historic breakthrough,” he added: “Mr. Netanyahu, thank you for being willing to take this bold step forward.” Trump said the plan more than doubles the territory currently under Palestinian control, while also recognizing Israeli sovereignty over major settlement blocs in the West Bank. The Palestinians have already rejected the proposal, accusing Trump of being biased in favor of Israel as he has adopted policies that bolster Israel at their expense. Trump thanked representatives of the Arab states of Oman, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates for being in attendance, which could possibly mean those countries support the plan. Oman’s Ambassador Hunaina al Mughairy, asked by The Times of Israel whether her presence meant the sultanate accepts the peace plan, replied: “We haven’t seen the plan yet.” Under the plan, Jerusalem will remain Israel’s “undivided capital,” Trump said, raising eyebrows after he had said that the capital of the Palestinian state would be in “eastern Jerusalem,” where the United States would “proudly open an embassy.” He said the status quo in Jerusalem’s Temple Mount compound will be preserved in coordination with Jordan, which will maintain its special role in managing the Al-Aqsa Mosque (which Trump mispronounced as “al-aqua”). He said the Palestinian state would be formed in a way that “resolves the risk to Israel’s security” and the risk of terror attacks, saying: “We will never ask Israel to compromise its security.” “No Israelis or Palestinians will be uprooted from their homes,” he added, saying West Bank settlements wouldn’t be expanded for four years, during which negotiations will be advanced. Trump said he was “saddened by the fate of the Palestinian people. They deserve a far better life — they deserve a chance to achieve their extraordinary potential.” “We are asking the Palestinians to meet the challenges of peaceful coexistence,” Trump said, calling on them to pass laws enshrining human rights, “stop the malign activities” of the Hamas, Islamic Jihad and other terror groups, “end incitement” against Israel and “halt financial compensation to terrorists.” Trump said the plan would “end the cycle of Palestinian dependence on charity.” He said making peace between Israel and the Palestinians “may be the most difficult challenge of all,” noting that many former US presidents had failed to achieve that. “But I was not elected to do small things or shy away from problems,” he added. “We will be there every step of the way. It will work. If they do it, it’ll work.” The plan builds on a 30-page economic plan for the West Bank and Gaza that was unveiled last June and which the Palestinians have also rejected. https://www.timesofisrael.com/trump...tic-2-state-deal-undivided-israeli-jerusalem/
