"I absolutely deny that we have any weapons warehouse [at the port]," he said, adding that broader claims that Hezbollah runs Beirut's ports "are lies."Another video of the explosions has come to our attention. It shows both the fire, then the first explosion, followed about 20 seconds later by the major blast. Curiously, you hear the sound of what seem to be jet engines just before the first explosion.
"We have nothing in the port: not an arms depot, nor a missile depot nor missiles nor rifles nor bombs nor bullets nor ammonium nitrate," he said, adding that any investigation will confirm this.
Nasrallah pointed out that Hezbollah members were among those killed and injured in the blast, and stressed that only an impartial investigation will reveal the truth about what happened. He emphasized that the investigation must be transparent and thorough, that "nobody should be protected," and that those responsible must be held to account.
Nasrallah suggested that the military, as an institution trusted by all sectors of society, should be allowed to conduct the investigation into the blast if the country's political forces agree. Alternatively, he said, a mixed committee including the army and other forces can be formed.
"We are shocked by the recent Executive Order, which was issued without any due process," the social media platform wrote on its website. "For nearly a year, we have sought to engage with the US government in good faith to provide a constructive solution to the concerns that have been expressed."China hypocritically calls it a "blatant hegemonic act" - with no mention of their longstanding bans on countless American apps - and urges the U.S. to stop "politicizing" relations:
"What we encountered instead was that the Administration paid no attention to facts, dictated terms of an agreement without going through standard legal processes, and tried to insert itself into negotiations between private businesses."
"These companies carry out business activities in the United States in accordance with market principles and international rules, and abide by US law and regulations. The US uses national security as an excuse to frequently abuse national power and unreasonably suppress non-American companies. This is a blatant hegemonic act."It may not be right, but it's certainly fair, given China's heavy-handed methods on their own soil. As with most governments, it's fair when we do it, unfair when anyone else does. In that regard, governments are the original SJW victim-mentality crybabies.
Wang urged the US to stop "politicizing economic issues" and create a "fair and non-discriminatory environment" for foreign companies.
This study tests different messages about vaccinating against COVID-19 once the vaccine becomes available. Participants are randomized to 1 of 12 arms, with one control arm and one baseline arm. We will compare the reported willingness to get a COVID-19 vaccine at 3 and 6 months of it becoming available between the 10 intervention arms to the 2 control arms.The study essentially looks at the best possible messaging that can be used on Americans, ranging from expressing vaccine benefits, to using messaging about economic impact, making someone feel guilty or embarrassed for not taking the vaccine, and so on.
Study participants are recruited online by Lucid, which matches census based sampling in online recruitment.
This respirator does not protect against the risk of contracting disease or infection. — Warning with a box of N-95 respirators.
The lockdown, along with the fear campaign with its daily doses of death statistics and warnings of impending spikes, is a full assault being advanced stepwise toward a dystopia of globalist design. The masks that now dominate on faces everywhere place wearers and non wearers into one or the other of two sharply defined categories, each category carrying a list of traits in the minds of those in the opposite category. What a perfect, visible way to split The People into competing teams. Wearers are sheep!; the maskless are public hazards!You have no right not to be vaccinated. You have no right not to wear a mask. You have no right to open up your business .... If you refuse to be vaccinated, the state has the power to literally take you to a doctor's office and plunge a needle into your arm. — Alan Dershowitz
