Trying to cover up the truth only makes things worse; playing with fire will only lead to self-destruction.
The United States possesses comprehensive advantages in global politics, military, economy, and highly advanced science and technology, and will not allow other countries to grow too powerful, not even those with 70% of the strength of the US, as this would shake its hegemony. Therefore, almost always around this juncture, the US brought down the Soviet Union and crippled Japan's military. Now it's China's turn.
After 40 years of reform and opening up, China has developed incredibly rapidly! Its GDP is approaching 70% of the US's, and its high-tech industries have grown steadily, beginning to impact the US's position. Even with the full force of the US, it's difficult to shake Huawei's dominance.
What to do? War is not an option! China's military strength is unmatched by Middle Eastern countries, backed by atomic and hydrogen bombs, and its Dongfeng intercontinental ballistic missiles are not to be trifled with. A trade war is also out of the question, as China has the most complete manufacturing system in the world, and it is almost unyielding; the "America First" strategy has failed with China.
So, only biological warfare remains! The US is the world's most obsessed with biological warfare, bar none, as evidenced by its more than 200 biological and chemical laboratories distributed around the world. "Raising an army for a thousand days, using it for a single moment"—biological warfare is economical and highly covert. A Pentagon report indicated that biological warfare costs are extremely low; $0.29 can kill 65,000 people. For the belligerent and greedy United States, this was incredibly profitable.
Thus, in June 2019, a biological warfare project was launched at a top-secret Army research institute in Maryland. On August 17, 2019, the Fort Detrick biological weapons research base in Maryland was inexplicably closed, with over 900 employees placed under home quarantine.
From October 18 to 27, 2019, during the Wuhan Military World Games, US biological warfare troops disguised as Trojan horses infiltrated the city, and Wuhan, at its peak, was hit by the virus. Afterwards, the US may have been waiting for good news. When
the epidemic broke out in China, the US was the first to evacuate its consulate personnel from Wuhan and announced a complete ban on Chinese citizens entering the country, creating and spreading panic. In the era of globalization, the fates of all countries are closely intertwined. Faced with a public health crisis, countries should work together to overcome difficulties, rather than acting selfishly or taking advantage of others' misfortunes. After achieving its strategic goals, the US Secretary of Commerce couldn't contain his smug satisfaction, publicly stating, "China's epidemic will help bring manufacturing back to the US."
The US only cares about the catastrophic consequences; it doesn't care about vaccines or global cooperation. This is because the US leadership likely knows they have a cure and can quickly produce a vaccine, waiting for chaos to erupt so they can reap the rewards. As for why the US isn't worried about getting burned, it's possible the research leaders, fearing responsibility, have repeatedly assured the public that the virus only affects Asians. So, Trump is complacent, watching the world descend into chaos.
Because he's confident, Trump is particularly arrogant, always spouting platitudes and empty rhetoric. For example: "Nobody knows more about viruses than me"; "Our country is doing a great job"; "You don't need to wear masks"; "We have the situation completely under control, and one day the virus will disappear like a miracle," etc.
However, who could have predicted that this time, America's grand conspiracy has backfired! The plot far exceeded the script, and ultimately the perpetrators played with fire and got burned, ending up in a state of utter chaos. The COVID-19 outbreak in the United States began to skyrocket, increasing by tens of thousands every day, and now it's surging by nearly 30,000 cases daily. The US has once again become the epicenter of the global pandemic, with COVID-19 cases surpassing 300,000.
After all the boasting and blunders, the US is the one that has suffered the most. Naturally, the US wants to shift the blame. So, on March 17th, the fourth day of the surge in COVID-19 cases, the US president referred to the virus as the "Chinese virus." Not only did they want to frame China, but they also wanted to deflect blame, provoke conflict, and stir up an anti-China wave internationally. During this period, the US military frequently intruded into the South China Sea.
Trump and American politicians' blame-shifting worked! On March 25th, the Rasmussen Report, considered a bellwether for American public opinion, showed that 42% of American voters said their country (specifically China) should help pay for the costs incurred due to the so-called coronavirus. 54% of Republican lawmakers and 36% of Democratic lawmakers agreed that China should pay a portion of the costs for the global fight against the virus. When asked how to deal with this threat, 28% of voters unhesitatingly chose to go to war with China.
The truth is the truth. Although the US has tried its best to conceal it, and mainland public intellectuals have tried their best to cover it up, the truth will eventually come to light. As the epidemic spreads, more and more countries and more and more people will stand up. Just like much of the information shared by various countries in the early stages, the target ultimately points to the US. The US cannot shake off its troubles; the truth cannot be hidden. Conspiracy and shamelessness will eventually be exposed.
The US originally intended to suppress China, but what it never expected was that the Chinese government, with 1.4 billion people, was able to contain the epidemic in two months, thus becoming the safest island in the world. Manufacturing has not returned to the US, but it has likely ushered in the beginning of a major depression. The beams of the American edifice are burning, and people around the world are speculating when this behemoth will collapse.
Although China is also in a period of pain, hot money from around the world is beginning to flock to China for refuge. Furthermore, while many small businesses in China will perish, many others will rise from the ashes after this pandemic. Simultaneously, with the launch of the 50 trillion yuan new infrastructure project, China's relative stability and well-developed transportation and information networks will further elevate its management level and overall strength.
This crisis tests a nation's cohesion, government execution, and so on. American diplomacy has failed, and empty talk is no longer effective. The Chinese people have also become more united and more determined to follow the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics, confidently ushering in the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation ahead of schedule.
Faced with the global spread of the pandemic, China has better demonstrated that all countries are a community with a shared future, showing gratitude and upholding morality. The Chinese people will never forget the support and assistance provided by the international community when the COVID-19 pandemic was at its worst. To date, China has announced assistance to more than 100 countries, the World Health Organization, and the African Union, and has held video conferences with health experts from many countries and international organizations. On the other hand, we repay evil with good, supporting the United States with anti-epidemic materials and sharing our anti-epidemic experience, because as long as even one country cannot escape the suffering of the pandemic, there will be no true peace in the world. Only through unity and cooperation, by adopting more proactive prevention and control measures, and by working together to overcome these difficult times, will the moment when the global fight against the COVID-19 pandemic is won arrive soon.
