  1. This is when the name-calling starts up. They have a repertoire of those.

  2. The boiling frog metaphor comes to mind.

  3.  @soakedbearrd  It depends on what the meaning of "is" is.

  4.  @soakedbearrd  Funding? What funding? Are you jealous you didn't get your own funding?

  5. A lot of MSM did not pay attention until Nuland's testimony, who just signaled to them that it's news. You can find all the denunciations against anyone who mentioned the issue, and the multiple "fact-checkers" who declared it was a conspiracy theory.

  6.  @Technoid_Mutant  Our sources have admitted to six such labs in Ukraine (Embassy website). It was reported in the Indian press and by TeleSUR that China has officially claimed there are 26, which means about 8% of all such labs in the world. All this, in a country that is divided, has had a civil war smoldering in much of its eastern third, and is supposed to be neutral under the Minsk Accords. You're right, what's the big deal? Well . . . it's a bigger deal now.

  7. Disingenuous. The point is, we now have well-founded reasons to ask the question and demand answers. Other countries are, and not just Russia and China.

  8. What was misleading was labeling the story misinformation. It is nothing of the kind. And the funding was DOD, not NIH. Have you even bothered to check the US Embassy in Ukraine website?

  9. Please don't put it that way.

  10. If I were you, I'd stop talking about it this very minute.

  11. Still a leap. In any case, it was DOD money. The people who sent it there have to answer to USA.

  12. "Funding? Go get your own funding. That way you won't be so interested in other people's funding." 🤣

  13. Why would there suddenly be a plethora of them in (of all places) Ukraine? Why would the Department of Defense be funding them? The labs and technologies that were arguably a threat date from the time the Soviets fell, and were (supposedly) taken care of in the 90s.

  14.  @Technoid_Mutant  Watch the video again, and check the sources yourself for when the American funding for building them was approved. I did.

  15. This isn't working.

  16. That's why Assange is still in prison, though there is literally no case against him except for jumping bail in a case that evaporated.

  17. Why did NIH send funds to Wuhan? Why did DOD funding of biolabs in Ukraine?

  18. The laboratories are not secret, or at least not all of them. Consult the US Embassy in Ukraine website. The Department of Defense funds these biolabs. DOD, not NIH. Check it yourself. DOD -- so, Fauci isn't involved in this one! 🤣 Sorry, I have a thing for gallows humor.

  19.  @kingofthekludge  That's not consistent with the documents TC just produced. You must agree there are well-founded questions that can no longer be swept away. You must agree the Department of Defense, not NIH, funds these biolabs. You must agree that Nuland and Rubio just expressed grave concern about the contents of the labs falling into the wrong hands. ALL established.

  20.  @kingofthekludge  You're citing bureaucratic esoterica, as if a "certification" holds sway over material reality.

  21.  @kingofthekludge  I'm not saying that. I'm saying that the question is well-founded, amply so, and that it is urgent. A week ago, it would have been labeled Russian disinformation. It would have been a "when did you stop beating your wife" type of question. Face it.

  22.  @kingofthekludge  Go back and look. Why do I need to spell it out a second time? That's a question for you to ask yourself.

  23.  @kingofthekludge  I'm not believing, I'm asking. What I do believe, as a general matter, is that the truth, about anything, doesn't count any more. The post-modernists have won. I don't know why we wouldn't teach them, then. Go Foucault! rah rah

  24. False. American Department of Defense dollars funded them. The Soviet Union fell in 1991, over 30 years ago. The US Embassy website still has some information, though the links are no longer active.
