Extreme Measures

Let’s see how I can polarize the optics on this one. What the hex, I’ve been learning from the MSM. Ah, I know ... put it in the worst possible light ... weaponize it to the highest degree ...

Just days after the state assembly granted him unlimited emergency powers ...

New York is creating a “containment area” around a community in New Rochelle, in an attempt to limit the spread of coronavirus in an area that quickly became the state’s largest source of COVID-19 infections, Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced Tuesday.

“New Rochelle is a particular problem,” Cuomo said, describing the area as a cluster of cases.

“The numbers have been going up, the numbers continue to go up, the numbers are going up unabated — and we do need a special public health strategy for New Rochelle,” Cuomo said.

A synagogue in the city has become the epicenter of an outbreak in Westchester County — which accounts for 108 of New York state’s 173 coronavirus cases.

As of Tuesday, that synagogue is also at the center of a circle that extends for a one-mile radius, marking the state’s containment area.

The governor is calling on the National Guard to help maintain the containment area. Cuomo said the troops will be deployed “to deliver food to homes, to help with the cleaning of public spaces.”

The new policy will take effect Thursday and remain in place through March 25th.

This is one of the areas that was endemic with the measles last year. For months and months.

And now two people across the Hudson River in Rockland County have it too. The same kind of people. Another 22 in self quarantine. The 2 guys were delivering food to that same community in New Rochelle over in Westchester. And they’re in Monsey ... another one of those communities. Which also went through the measles thing recently. And before that, the hepatitis thing. Oy vey, it never stops.

Health officials announced two residents who have been confirmed to have coronavirus potentially exposed others to the disease from February 28 - March 2 in Rockland County.
...
“It was previously believed that these infected individuals had not worked as caterers during these events and it was only through the detective work of one of our investigators that this discovery was made,” said Dr. Ruppert. “Any person who believes they may have been exposed should contact their health care provider by phone right away. I also ask that anyone who becomes ill with this disease be completely forthcoming with our investigators, it is only with your help that we can prevent the spread of this disease.”

ROCKLAND COUNTY, NY — Two cases of coronavirus have been confirmed in Rockland County, County Executive Ed Day confirmed. Both people who caught the virus worked at a bar mitzvah service and celebration at Young Israel of New Rochelle.
...
The synagogue’s rabbi has also tested positive for the virus.

The governor of any state is the nominal leader of that state’s National Guard. In effect, they are his army. And while they are Guardsmen, to the rest of us they are soldiers. I have no idea if these troops were sent to this task armed. I would really hope not, but being armed is what they do. And I do not know when the last time was, or if there ever was, an effort in this country to use troops to curtail the movement of citizens en masse. And there are a LOT of people in that one mile circle in New Rochelle. It’s super-suburbia, just north of New York City. And just like Lakewood NJ (where I fully expect the next outbreak to blossom, just like with the measles), and Monsey NY, it’s a very very Jewish neighborhood.

The very far Left leaning Democrat governor of NY, Andrew Cuomo, was just given nearly unlimited emergency powers by a midnight session of the State Assembly. They hardly even read the bill, just rubber stamped it in the middle of the night. For real. So much so that Progressives around the state were wondering out loud and online if they had gone too far. Fascism? Nazism? Where’s the line? And just a couple days later out comes his army to encircle the Jews? Horry Clap. These are some terrible optics even without the opportunistic slant.

Was it necessary? Probably, but who cares? Let no crisis go to waste: it’s Kristallnacht in NY. It’s what antisemitic Leftists do when they have unlimited power.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
