中新网评：撒谎、欺骗、偷窃……美国情报部门又玩起了拿手“好戏”？

中新网北京8月13日电 (蒋鲤) 拜登政府5月曾下令让美国情报部门在90天内提交一份新冠病毒源头调查报告，如今期限将至，美情报部门联合CNN等美国媒体，又安排了一出栽赃中国的“好戏”。

8月5日，美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)发布“独家报道”，声称美国情报机构目前已经搜集了大量武汉病毒所实验室的基因数据，一旦破译，这些数据可能成为揭示新冠病毒起源的关键。但CNN表示，尚不清楚这些数据的来源。

没有真凭实据却成了CNN的“独家”？这些数据是真实存在的吗？不如说这更像是美国对中国发起的一场舆论战，目的就是为了让中国再次成为全球溯源的焦点，以实现栽赃中国的图谋。

值得进一步思考的是，美国情报部门是如何拿到这些所谓的“关键数据”呢？有没有经过情报部门的加工？美国前国务卿蓬佩奥就曾说过：“我曾担任中央情报局(CIA)局长，我们撒谎、我们欺骗、我们偷窃，我们还有一门课程专门来教这些。这才是美国不断探索进取的荣耀。” 所以，大概只有美国政府才知道这些问题的答案吧。

做戏要做全套，除了媒体报道，当然也少不了美国部分政客的参与。美国会众议员麦考尔2日发布所谓的“新冠病毒溯源报告”更新版，以80多页的文字加大渲染所谓“武汉实验室泄漏论”。然而，这份所谓“更新版报告”漏洞百出，缺乏原始数据，没有法律效力。连美国时政分析师安德鲁·克里布科也指出，共和党人的这份报告是为了抹黑中国，通过把溯源问题政治化，以在来年中期选举中获取更多选民的支持。

据美国约翰斯·霍普金斯大学11日数据，美国确诊病例累计超3600万例，死亡病例累计超61万例，毫无疑问，美国是全球第一抗疫失败国。如何有效遏制疫情，挽救民众生命才是当务之急。所以，那些试图栽赃中国的美国政客们，还是醒醒吧！

U.S. intelligence agencies hurry to satisfy Biden's 90-day order on Covid origin tracing

By John Lee

(ECNS) -- U.S. President Joe Biden in May ordered the Intelligence Community to produce a report on COVID-19 origin tracing within 90 days. As the deadline approaches, U.S. intelligence agencies have shown their latest "progress" to the public through CNN.

On August 5, CNN released an "exclusive report,” claiming that U.S. intelligence agencies "are digging through a treasure trove of genetic data that could be key to uncovering the origins of the coronavirus -- as soon as they can decipher it." However, CNN said it's unclear exactly how or when the U.S. intelligence agencies gained access to the information.

Why is data without a clear source an "exclusive report" on CNN? Does the data truly exist? Is it a public opinion war launched by the U.S. against China, so that China can be the target of the world regarding origin tracing once again?

How do U.S. intelligence agencies get "key data"? Has the country ever falsified such data? It is worth further consideration. As former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo once boasted, "I was the CIA director, we lied, we cheated, we stole...It was like we had entire training courses. It reminds you of the glory of the American experiment." It is the U.S. that knows the answers to these questions.

What's more, Representative Michael McCaul, the ranking member of the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee, released an "updated" report with over 80 pages on August 2, claiming that there is a preponderance of evidence that the virus leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology. But the report was criticized widely for its loopholes and original shortage of evidence. Andrew Korybko, an American political analyst, thought the Republicans' report could be seen as a preemptive partisan move to influence next year's midterms.

According to Johns Hopkins University, the U.S. has reported more than 36,000 thousand confirmed cases and a death toll of over 610,000 until Wednesday. It's time for the country to focus on its urgent COVID-19 fight and save lives.
