UK deaths 20 year record high

"Deaths in England and Wales have nearly doubled above what would be expected, hitting a 20-year high.

The Office for National Statistics said there were 18,500 deaths in the week up to 10 April - about 8,000 more than is normal at this time of year.

A third were linked to coronavirus, but deaths from other causes also increased, suggesting the lockdown may be having a substantial indirect impact on health."

so about 2650 "above average deaths" were linked to coronavirus but 5400 were not and are linked to the enforced remedies such as stay at home orders, avoiding hospitals, job losses, social isolation.

Interesting viewpoint

There won’t be any start of anything, ffs.

Geopolitically, it’d be so cripplingly reetarded to launch any illegal military strike on Chinese territory that even Trump wouldn’t countenance the idea for a second.

Even if he did, his generals would laugh him out of the room.

Will you give apple 10 years warning to repatriate their manufacturing. We have a nuclear power plant they are paying for, can you hold of until that is built? Probably worth giving the US pork farmers a $1.8bn sweetener before you nuke their market?

There's always going to be a form of collateral damage in any war. It's just the way it is.

China has been a thorn to the United States for 40 years and they have been desperate to be THE world's super power for decades.

That's why I don't believe that a wet market - which has been around for years - caused all of this....AND in Wuhan of all places. They create a virus to bring the world to its knees and they capitalize.

So, the US should not send one more penny to them and they need to forgive the debt. If they don't, then so long, farewell.
----------------------------------------------------------------------


I really hope you will be collateral damage to all of this. To think you be dead by the hands of a Chinese bioweapon would be the sweetest thing right now.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nope. Won't happen. Anything those b'stards send over here will be quickly destroyed by our superior defense system. Then we will finish the damn thing.

...and to add to your misery, I hope I am the one pushing the button

What happens when you f*ck with the United States? Ask Japan.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Missing the point eejit, I was talking about you personally. Hope you catch it and be collateral damage. People bragging about killing millions of people with a nuclear bomb deserve to die.

Why does American produce so many crazy fools ? Is it because they are fed so much bs propaganda ?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I’m more and more convinced that Poolmyfinger is a Barry sock account.

There’s no way the guy is legit.

They don't produce them so much as attract them.

For the record, I come from a military family. My father served in Vietnam and both of my late grandfathers served during WWII and the Korean War, and one of my great-grandfathers served during WWI.

So, you can forgive me for not adopting the policy of appeasement (a.k.a. Neville Chamberlain), and supporting military action - IF China doesn't forgive US debt.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Your whole family, including you, should go to war now, and hopefully none of you return.

Would be stupid to start with some buildings. If you don't knoch China out quickly you have a problem. If you cant use nukes then you can't beat China with troops saan. You'll be outnumbered like 50 to 1. The difference in equipment wouldn't come anywhere close to making up the difference.

Vietnam was a death trap, China would be just be guys getting killed really fast.

Is there a point in engaging this? We don't really know any of this stuff. "Knock out government and military buildings" You think China is Afghanistan?

That would probably get you nuked. If not you then someplace close to you so that it makes no difference if they can't reach continental USA. Rest assured something would be coming the other way.

My point is, there is the condition of mutually assured destruction which has become reliant on nuclear weapons. You clearly implied the use of nuclear weapons by using terms like "finish this" and "ask Japan". Any reasonable person knows what your post communicated.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, so if you were the one making the decision, how would you handle them?

People's daily lives have been ruined. In my country, people have lost a lot of money and now 15% of the country is unemployed and not knowing where their next meal is coming from. That absolutely hurts me to tears.

I love my country. I love my fellow countrymen no matter the circumstance. To see families having to wait in line for hours to get food from a food bank because both parents lost their jobs because the government shut things down really hurts.

And how? because some fools on the other side of the world decided to eat bats? Does that make sense?

To me it doesn't. ESPECIALLY now that it's been reported that Chinese officials have been trying to hide things from the world. That screams cover up. They don't want us to know anything....just sweep it under the rug....because they may have accidentally leaked a biological agent that was meant for something else.

Sorry, but I want them to pay. Like I said, there are millions like me who feel the same way....and when there are enough Americans who want justice, we will get it one way or another.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How do you feel about DuPont and Dow, poisoning thousands of fellow Americans? Do you want to nuke those American companies as well? Or is that different??

Yeah, I’m sure they’d be prepared to discuss wiping off $1tn of debt
