No. It's not satire. It's the reality in this Obamanation. Yet another Barry "in yer face, America" outrage-du-jour that I suspect will be, from now on, coming "fast and furious" over his last (presumably and hopefully) two years in office.

Apparently, Barry thinks that the Liberian Ebola outbreak is more of a threat to the USA than ISIS and radical jihadists. And apparently, Barry is going to make damn sure that that will be the case.

Why, you ask, does he think this way? He probably figures this is the best way to create more orchestrated chaos and civilian outrage in the US. Why....it's 'almost as if' Barry were trying to instigate another civil war....or at least a civil insurrection. Something that would require him to declare Martial Law.

We knew he hated the US military, probably even more than Bill Clinton hated the US military....but we had no idea just how much. Sending our best and brightest to an Ebola infested hell-hole proves it. It's official.


US to send 3,000 troops to Ebola danger zone as Obama administration shuffles military's mission in Africa

The United States government is sending thousands of military troops to the west African nation of Liberia as part of the Obama administration's Ebola virus-response strategy, the White House said late Monday night.

'U.S. Africa Command will set up a Joint Force Command headquartered in Monrovia, Liberia, to provide regional command and control support to U.S. military activities and facilitate coordination with U.S. government and international relief efforts,' a statement from the White House press office said.

'A general from U.S. Army Africa, the Army component of U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM), will lead this effort, which will involve an estimated 3,000 U.S. forces.'

Liberia is the hardest-hit of the four west African nations that have confirmed Ebola cases, accounting for more than one-half of the fatalities. The others are Sierra Leone, Guinea and, to a lesser extent, Nigeria.

With ISIS and Muslim Jihadist trash generally, America is guaranteed to be hated .. it's a 'given' ... so, there's nothing more to be gained in the 'Let's see everyone want us to go home' department.

Liberia, though, and African nations in that general locality ? Will they share such enmities ?

If not now, a little dose of military 'invasion' should do the trick.

I'm sure the Ebola virus itself will be much impressed by America's military might. Perhaps it'll be moved to negotiate its surrender ?:rolleyes::tinfoil:

And what happens if or rather when members of our military have to shoot to kill some Ebola-infested Africans when they panic or try to over-run a facility (which they've apparently already been doing)? Will our military be immune to prosecution or condemnation? You know the main reason (excuse) Obama gave for pulling all troops out of Iraq was because they had no immunity or protections from a re-negotiated SOFA. Do we have ANY such protections guarantee from the Liberian gov? Hell no.

This is a lose-lose scenario for America and for Americans. Just the kind of scenario that Obozo prefers and specializes in.

Why is there an "Africa Command" in the 1st place?

Oh yeah, we are the police of the world, if we don't do it the world will fall into chaos.
So we need to be there so the virus won't spread,
better to stop it there than here right?
We HAVE TO be all over the world 24/7/365.

That's what some here have told me at lest.

I keep saying, 'no we can come home. we don't need ships and bases all over the earth'
But that's crazy isolationist talk i'm told.

It is crazy isolationist talk. Do you go out of your house to work and do business? Do you go to the store? Do you go to events and get togethers? Or do you just hide in your basement under a blanket?

Does your town have a police dept? Do they operate out of more than one facility? Do they patrol the neighborhoods? Their job is to protect you. Why would you want to take away their means of providing that protection?

It works that way on the world stage as well. The is a Africa Command to cover the region. There are regional commands through the world. Intel and reports go to AFCOM and are sent on to the pentagon. Since you don't understand how the military works the command structures will not make sense to you.

Your idea of bring everyone home is silliness. You would then allow the muzzies, the russians and chinese to run rampant through world. How long before they come knocking on your door?

the Chinese have more influence than we do in many parts of Africa, WITHOUT bases and troops or "Africa Commands"
Why do we believe that the ONLY tool is the Military?
the military does not have to be sitting on every continent for for the world to be at peace . the Africa command was not there 5 years ago. and Africa didn't go up in flames and isn't any better off for our presence. It's a BS argument that we have to have some military footprint "to preserve our peace at home".
It's because we've been bad business people and the Chinese and Russian have made better deals for African resources.
that's the HONEST answer.
not to prevent war, or to keep Russians of our shores.
The only country dropping troops all over the world doorsteps is the USA.


but whatever, if I'm so wrong then there's no need to Complain about U.S troops in Ebola-ville Liberia.
Because if we aren't there, then we are being ISOLATIONIST.:rolleyes:

The Chinese have their own Africa Command. I don't know what they call it but they have one. Just as they have regional command headquarters throughout their sphere of influence. And Africa Command is not a new thing. It's been around for at least 20 years. The Russians are trying to reestablish their regional command centers. Take a look at Cuba and points south. They are looking to reestablish their arctic base.

Any major country is going to have regional commands. It makes it easier to run things in an area without going to the central command for every little thing. Even the US is divided into command regions.

Either 'not long', or at any rate, THEY would be deciding the issue.

Stating what, I'm sure, is the blindingly obvious .. what's being suggested adds up to a 'bunker mentality' .. basically, cowering away in your own little piece of territory, and hoping against hope that you can somehow be invulnerable from the ills of this world. No matter how many. No matter how powerful, or pernicious. Such a mentality demands a 100% success rate, regardless of what it must cope with, PERMANENTLY.

In other words, such a defensive posture demands complete and never-ending success, against opposition you choose to have no control over.

Perhaps some passing Leftie or other can try to convince me of the wisdom of that ?

The main reason some conservatives may be sounding "isolationist" right now is....they don't trust Obama with the command of our troops ANYwhere. And for very good reason. Obama's apparent "we are the police of the world" routine isn't about America coming to anyone's rescue. It's all about still and as usual the breaking of the US economy and the resultant destruction of the USA. We couldn't even afford to keep WH tours going (http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2013/03/unreal-obama-shuts-down-white-house-due-to-sequester-but-sends-500-million-to-palestinians/)or DC monuments open for a national holiday. How the hell can we now afford to send 3,000 troops to Africa for a non-military operation? It's all part of his "plan". His and his string-handlers.

And hey...if only a third of those troops manage to come back and spread Ebola around America...Obama probably counts that as a twofer.

As CiC he has decided his is Emperor and can use our military to further his political agenda. And while doing so hope to weaken it and have the added bonus of blaming our returning troops--if/when? Ebola hits here in a major epidemic!!

The US military's role is NOT disaster relief. Especially when the disaster is a highly contagious disease that even people without direct contact with ebola patients are contacting.

The US military's role is the United States' national security....not the general welfare of the continent of Africa. And putting 3,000 of our men and women into harms way re: a highly contageous disease in another country...due to an order they are given by the CIC... is not their job, nor should it be. There should be a volunteer group sent to help, if anything.

Where, for example, are other nations' military troops being sent there for this ""Ebola crisis""? Does anyone think that any other president but Obama, with Marxist Muslim relatives in Kenya, would be ordering the US military to do this? I don't.

So either you think we should do NOTHING here or you believe there is some branch of the government better equipped to deal with this than the DoD?

And I don't particularly care what other countries are doing in regards to the Ebola , we don't base our actions off what other countries do.

DLT. Agreed on the US military's role in many respects but..What about Earthquakes, Hurricanes, Tsunami's, Fires, and Humanitarian Help around the World that NOT EVEN THE U.N. does as well as The U.S.A.?
Do we now Pick, and Choose which disasters deserve our help, and those that don't?
The potential for this EBOLA scare may, or may not be real. But what if we choose to Ignore it...ya know? Like Obama wants to ignore ISIS, ISIL, and all the other OBAMA FRIENDS in The Muslim Brotherhood...neighborhood?

Where, for example, are other nations' military troops being sent there for this ""Ebola crisis""? Does anyone think that any other president but Obama, with Marxist Muslim relatives in Kenya, would be ordering the US military to do this? I don't.

The US military has been used in disaster relief before (http://www.history.navy.mil/faqs/faq130-4.htm)...

Following the 26 December 2004 earthquake and tsunami in the Indian Ocean, the U.S. military responded quickly, sending ships, planes, and relief supplies to the region. Coordinated by Joint Task Force 536, established at Utapao, Thailand, the Navy and the Marine Corps shifted assets from the Navy's Pacific Command (http://www.pacom.mil/) within days. The rapid response once again illustrated the flexibility of naval forces when forward deployed.
... even under Bush. :eek: I believe it was in one of the other Ebola thread that identified the military as having been training for these types of scenarios for a few years now. Do you have the same complaint as the CDC being sent over there? I apparently know some folks who are being deployed over there. Don't ask any more; I might have to shoot you. ;)

I can easily argue this as a national security issue especially given the CDC's ominous projections?

Ah yes, the ol's Marxist-Muzzy Kenya connection. :2up: I'm pretty sure Bush would be jumping at the chance to make a dent in this thing as quickly as possible. He is still very popular in Africa given some of his policies from when he was POTUS.

So far so good.

Liberia: U.S. Troops Near End of Ebola Work in Liberia (http://allafrica.com/stories/201412241105.html)



Maj. Gen. Gary Volesky, the commander of the military's Ebola task force, told The Wall Street Journal the U.S. will make a decision by the middle of next month on whether or not to keep the troops in the region, or perhaps send them to Sierra Leone or Guinea, or ship them back to the U.S."If the progress in Liberia continues the direction it is going in and we don't get told to do something outside Liberia, I expect we would start to redeploy some forces," Volesky said. "If they tell us to do something else, we will do that."
U.S. forces sent to Liberia as part of the Ebola task force, have helped build 14 Ebola treatment units including one that was finished last Monday, reports the Journal.
The Ebola outbreak has slowed considerably in recent weeks, according to data from the World Health Organization (WHO).


Volesky told the Journal the military has scaled back the number of deployed soldiers and troops on the ground have constructed smaller treatment units than first planned because of the plummeting case numbers.
None of the U.S. troops, Volesky said, have been in contact with anyone infected with the Ebola virus. Their temperatures are also checked twice a day as a safeguard.

The military has managed to defeat the nefarious plans to spread death and disease to the American people.
