The crisis is taking on a scale that some newspapers are now comparing to a state of war.
Everyone should not fear, no one should panic. Just we have to stay calm and careful.
In Italy, public life has come to a virtual standstill. More than 17.000 people are infected, more than 1.260 dead. People all over Europe are afraid. The government measures are drastic and are increasingly restricting freedom.
Exceptionally, the United States is accused by China of having brought the virus into the country. No one can yet understand the accusation, which would be outrageous if it were true. Zhao Lijian, in his capacity as State Department spokesman, has tweeted numerous conspiracy theories, but he has never been so bright. This issue is matched by an article in the South China Morning Post, that the first patient was a 55-year-old from Hubei province on November 17. But patient 0 is still missing. Zhao Lijian accuses the US military of bringing the virus into the country, which would be unthinkable.
2/2 CDC was caught on the spot When did patient zero begin in US? How many people are infected? What are the names of the hospitals? It might be US army who brought the epidemic to Wuhan. Be transparent! Make public your data! US owe us an explanation! pic.twitter.com/vYNZRFPWo3
Trump, who in the crisis has shown himself to be an absolute loser and a complete idiot, even in his simple way of solving complex issues, does not allow infected US citizens to return to their home country. He, the master of life and death, selects. Trump had made the point at a meeting with the Irish Prime Minister. Later, his deputy, Pence, rowed back. In his contempt for all else, Trump is the paradigm of a failed nationalist, without brain or reason. Just power and money, wherever from.
But even in the man who propagates the virus of others, reality shows. According to the Mirror's report, Jair Bolsonaro, a right-wing despot and brother in the spirit of Trump, visited Trump a few days ago in Florida. Bolsonaro's collaborator Fabio Wajngarten is said to be infected and now the Brazilian ruler. The Intercept also reports the same. Hong Kong has issued a travel ban and quarantine order for the Schengen area.
Spyware
Now there is already a coronavirus card, which works with spy software. Whoever opens the map, it is fake: Corona-virus-Map.com.exe. The user does not notice that malware is loaded along the way. The program is supposed to be called AZORult. It probably comes from Russia; it scans the computer for specific parameters, browser data, it takes screenshots and steals passwords. A good virus program can help against the "old friend" from 2015.
Iran used to be called Persia and was certainly not a democratic constitutional state even under Shah Reza Pahlavi. The Shah on the Peacock Throne ruled with an iron hand and his intelligence service, which was brutal beyond all measure.
But all hell broke loose when Khomeini came to Teheran 40 years ago.
The state of Iran went off the rails, and the US embassy staff was captured. For more than 400 days, the embassy staff were held hostage by a questionable regime. One wanted to blackmail the Shah from the USA. A rescue operation failed.
However, after the sect around the former Ayatollah Khomeini took power, Iran has become a terror for the world community. The "mother of all Islamic revolutions" was proclaimed, fatwas were pronounced on writers and intellectuals at home and abroad to suppress free opinion. Operations of the Iranian secret service became a power factor elsewhere.
Iran is no longer a reliable partner; it maintains an execution industry that is second to none. People who are strangled to death while wriggling on construction cranes are symbolic of a regime that has nothing else to say to the people.
Gays are hanged or forced to undergo gender reassignment. A Women's team consisted of former men who were forced by the regime to submit to this procedure. At the same time, prostitution and the consumption of alcohol are flourishing; there are countless secret places where whiskey is distilled and then distributed through real networks in Teheran. At the very least, this will bring work for the population that has been battered by the recession.
People, citizens of the state of Iran were kidnapped, tortured and subjected to draconian punishments. The modern women under the Shah were banished into unspeakable veils.
Those who did not adapt were released for hunting by guys like Ahmadineschad. Iran is a country of terror, of denial of the diversity of opinions. The clergy governs from the back room and enriches itself unilaterally with the economic benefits of the Gulf wars with Iraq and the sanctions that have lasted for years.
Teheran controls terror and is undoubtedly one of the masterminds behind international terrorism.
Iran is run-down and cannot give the increasingly rebellious youth any perspective.
The collapse of the system is only a matter of time. Then neither the almighty apparatus nor the marauding gangs of the Basidsch-e Mostaz'afin can't help.
So, nothing to celebrate in Teheran.

The Greek TV station Mega Channel put it in a nutshell. Erdogan had provided free transport to the border and threatened soon to send millions of refugees to the Greek border. According to Mega Channel, these are people who have nothing to do with Syria. According to Mega Channel, chemicals are dropped from drones. In the meantime, the action of Erdogan seems like a siege of Greece. According to various sources, Erdogan is using the refugees, some of whom, according to sources, have been brought to Turkey by Turkish smugglers from Bangladesh, Pakistan and other countries, as henchmen for his bizarre policy.

Meanwhile, the situation on Lesbos escalates, here are several reports about it.

Erdogan's cynical games
Overnight thousands of refugees had to spend the night on the ground, with temperatures around 0 degrees Celsius. Erdogan's cynical tactics seem to be working. Some film clips on this.
How could a man like Erdogan be given such power?
It was known that Erdogan is brutal in the assertion of his interests. Those who do not acknowledge this should reconsider the events surrounding the attempted coup in 2016. Erdogan's role in this game was to dismantle the opposition. There are quite a few claims that he perpetrated the coup to establish his dictatorship, which is similar to a sultanate.
Because Erdogan treats the refugees as hostages and not as refugees, he is personally responsible. He should be treated as such. Even if the refugees were encouraged to drive to the border, throwing stones and burning woods, as the Greek Mega channel reported. Apparently, according to a video, Turkish military vehicles accompany the refugees' march to the border.
Seventy-three refugees were detained on Saturday and arrested afterwards.
The refugees came from Afghanistan, Pakistan and Somalia. Not from Syria. So far, breakthrough attempts have been prevented.
According to the semi-state Greek news agency ANA-MPA SA, a large group of youths tried a breakthrough in the Kastanies woods, where there are no border security installations, at about2 p.m local time today.
Now Europe is trapped. The policy of appeasement with a cunning dictator like Erdogan was wrong.
There will either be a humanitarian disaster or Erdogan will get his way. The NATO defence case in Syria and billions of euros for his ailing dictatorship-ridden economy. How are the refugees carted to the border between Greece and the EU supposed to protect themselves from cold and hunger in the open countryside? In the case of under-age children, Europe should make an exception for humanitarian reasons. The children should be handed over to the International Red Cross, which can also stay in no-man's-land between Turkey and the EU.
All those who thought that Erdogan was a stroke of luck now see that such a Turkey does not belong in the EU and cannot be a negotiating partner. Nor is it because Erdogan has accepted the calculation of the weakest border, the obvious 212 kilometres of the border.
Moreover, his henchmen in the Aegean are watching boats crossing over to Lesbos.
The bitter thing is that, in the end, Brussels will have to give in so as not to betray its human rights standards.
Koran nightingale
Erdogan has made on his long-announced threat to real and had thousands of refugees transported to the border, allegedly from the embattled area around Idlib in Syria. It is not clear to observers on the ground whether the refugees come from Syria. The Greek border posts are remaining closed.
The Turk Erdogan in Istanbul said: "We have opened the gates", but Erdogan was not interested in what could happen. In his addiction to grandeur, he, who was once called a "Koran nightingale" because of his religious attitude, is trying to blackmail the EU. It is not entirely clear what he wants since Erdogan only stated that the EU had not kept to the refugee deal. Erdogan continues to play his poker game, which he has long lost.
#Evros now : more than 3.000 migrants and refugees hoping to break through Greek block at Kastanies crossing: for those of us who lived it, the nightmare of #Idomeni has revived. Is it too much to ask from @EU_Commission and @Frontex to give Greece a helping hand ? pic.twitter.com/rrb3iGGnZ3
Meanwhile, dramatic scenes take place on the Greek-Turkish border, i.e. on the eastern border of the European Union. After refugees threw stones at border police officers, Greek border guards used tear gas. Independent Turkish media and Greek sources report that about 50,000 people are said to have arrived at the various border crossings. Few were able to cross them and were immediately arrested. This issue was reported by Greek News. There is considerable violence, and the refugees are rioting if they are not allowed to cross the border.

And "treating them like human beings" obviously includes using them as pawns by @MevlutCavusoglu and his government, boarding them in buses, lying they are free to cross and then busing more to the border https://t.co/RnfNVouEMf
Since the bombing of Idlib, nothing is the same as it once was in the war country Syria. The Sultan by his grace, Erdogan, has played poker and lost. He is personally responsible for the consequences, neither NATO, after which he is downright noisy, nor the EU. Tens of thousands of Syrians are on the run and in his simple-mindedness, Erdogan now, after the death of his soldiers, wants to resort to the NATO alliance case, which would result in a confrontation with Assad's ally, Russia.
Heaps of buses drive from Istanbul to the Macedonian border. There is nothing left of the refugee deal, except the threat potential of Erdogan - that he takes a few more hostages to get a better deal for him.
Erdogan is a cardsharper, a man who has outgrown the power he has seized. He should not, in his almost childish commander's manner, be given a chance to set Europe on fire. Erdogan has waged a war of aggression in Syria. Now he must answer for the consequences. At the Greek-Turkish border, thousands are trying to cross the demarcation line to flee to Europe. Greece reacts with tear gas. Dramatic scenes take place. Therefore, to maintain its internal peace, Europe must close its external borders.
