The Global Times, communist China’s state-run newspaper, has published an editorial article threatening nuclear war against the United States.
The Threat
The article claims that Beijing is preparing for a nuclear war with the U.S. as a response to calls for a probe into the true origins of COVID. Apparently China doesn’t want us to know the truth.
According to the article, China is in the process of building new warheads and intercontinental missiles in an effort to deter the U.S. The article also notes that “the number of China’s nuclear warheads must reach the quantity that makes U.S. elites shiver….should they entertain the idea of engaging in a military confrontation with China.”
Currently, the United States has 6,000 nuclear warheads, while China only has around 350.
This article was published just days after Joe Biden announced a new probe by the Intelligence Community into the origins of the coronavirus. The probe will specifically look at whether it leaked from a virology lab in Wuhan, China.
Of course, China is outraged at the allegations that the virus came from one of their labs. Chinese Communist Party leadership has denounced the investigation, claiming it is “politicized.”
The Investigation
While conservatives have been pushing for this investigation for a long time now, the left has been calling anyone who supports the lab-leak theory “conspiracy theorists” and “racists,” while campaigning to have them deplatformed.
So far, most Democrats have been satisfied with the so-called “investigation” conducted by the communist China-backed World Health Organization. Conservatives, on the other hand, don’t trust the World Health Organization at all.
“The WHO mission was a joke…it was filled with a bunch of people who had no relevant expertise…they didn’t get to interview the researchers and the staff in the lab…they didn’t get the records,” said Republican Senator Tom Cotton. ”They basically sat in a conference room and got some coffee and doughnuts and were fed a PowerPoint set of lies by Chinese communist apparatchiks.”
Other Republicans are pointing out that initiating an investigation at this point is too late. Any evidence that did exist in the beginning is likely gone now.

In a recent interview, Senator Cotton said what most sane people are thinking: China’s aggression toward the upcoming investigation suggests they have something to hide.
“They are not only incompetent and negligent in this laboratory if the virus came from the lab, but menevolant by showing complete disregard for the lives of their own subjects in addition to lives around the world,” the senator said.
Joe Biden has given the U.S. House Intelligence Committee a 90 day deadline to report back on the findings of their investigation. The Global Times article warns that even the most minor incident in that time frame could spark a full-scale war because of a so-called “hostile attitude” from the U.S.
