[al-Monitor] The coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)

pandemic is dominating the news in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...Qatar's satrapy in Asia Minor...

#3  F'n knew it from the headline. Joke website. Not literally a joke. But a$$hat beltway clowns. Not cia clowns, but the ones who get degrees and write about stuff with 5000 miles of separation btwn them and actual events. We appear Arab so we must be.

5min dive into the webs found:

Al Monitor is a new media platform dedicated to in-depth coverage and analysis of the Middle East. HQ: Washington, District of Columbia, United States

Al Monitor has 2 current team members:

Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer Simon Ayat (additionally this dude is Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Schlumberger LLC - international oilfield services company. Schlumberger employs approximately 100,000 people).

And Jamal Daniel CEO (who is cracker white).

I always find these people project, here's a headline al-Monitor rain Dec '19. Middle East lobbyists pay op-ed writers to sell their message.
