Comments In Brief Short takes on selected items lately in the news, such as the admirable Italian government revision of C19 fatality figures, the silver lining to Kyle Rittenhouse's terrible ordeal, a solution to the illegal border crossings in Texas, and more. THE ITALIAN INSTITUTE OF HEALTH has revised its official total C19 death toll from 130,468 to 3,783, finally acknowledging the difference between the irrelevant cases of death which was from other causes but in which C19 was alleged to be present (or had been purportedly detected sometime within a few weeks or a month of the death) and those actually brought about by C19 itself. See the report at https://www.globalresearch.ca/italian-institute-health-drastically-reduces-official-covid-death-toll-number/5760891. Were US officials to be similarly honest, the official US death toll would drop from a frightening, any-port-in-a-storm-panic-inducing 762,929 to a much more rational-response-conducive 45,776. (See the analyses at https://losthorizons.com/N/166.htm#1, https://losthorizons.com/N/167.htm#1 and https://losthorizons.com/N/168.htm#1.) I wonder why US officials are NOT honest about this? *** ONE SILVER LINING to the dark cloud of Kyle Rittenhouse's outrageous ordeal is that after watching the trial, many people should be awakening to the quantity and quality of deception practiced by the MSM in service to their agenda. As details emerged during the courtroom proceedings, it became increasingly clear that not only was everything reported by the MSM and "official" voices over the last year and more about the events in Kenosha on August 25, 2020 misrepresented, but the misrepresentation was so thoroughly contrary to the facts that it had to be deliberate.
