I admire and welcome this measured response. Bravo. However, so much was pre-meditated. And that which wasn’t, was incompetent at best, negligent at worst. Mistakes were made, but intent was everywhere. Then cover-ups, censorship, smears, and no doubt a ton more from blackmail to bribery to bankruptcy threats.

All in all, somewhere between iatrogenic mass murder, perhaps some corporate manslaughter, and genocidal crimes against humanity are being perpetrated on humanity by full intent, some wilful blindness and even less accidental complicity. We are therefore within our rights to defend ourselves as we see fit and seek reparations as necessary.
