The Welcomed Invasion of 3000 U.S. Army boots into West Africa to Defeat the Ebola Virus!!! Great Work!
 
Americans have become used to reading or seeing our brave American troops fighting in far-away places which we care little about or know even less than nothing. Finally, President Obama has ordered our soldiers into Harm’s Way.  This time, the enemy is possibly one of the most lethal ‘terrorists’ we have yet confronted—the Ebola Virus. Very rarely, do we Americans realize how many different types of assignments our U.S. Military engages in other than ‘war’ as we have seen it portrayed in the movies or in the media.  For the most part, our military is portrayed as a pack of hot heads shooting their way in and out of hot zones of combat.
Seldom have we witnessed the Army Engineer Corps reconfiguring our depleted sand beaches which we sun-worshippers take for granted.  Even more unusual, is a picture showing the Army Engineer Corps building our power/water dams.  Those pictures are not as exciting as ‘mayhem’ and technicolor ‘blood and guts’.  Yet in many real emergencies anywhere in the USA or the world, the first responders that are required to be present en masse is the U.S. Military.
In Katrina, the Navy had hospital ships all ready for any necessary mass evacuations, despite the fact that they were not utilized by the Bush Jr administration. Another case of unobtrusive incursion into the arena of health is the unusual presence of the U.S Army which has the largest Ob/Gyn outpatient capacity in the world, offering professional  services to females: civilian and military.

Now we have the present initiative by AFRICOM, our major US Military presence in Africa which requested that the President and Congress allow US Troops to enter the most dangerous parts of West Africa to provide a cordon sanitaire to prevent the spread of the Ebola Virus from one country to another.  What this deployment really connotes is the underlying courage of our military personnel who volunteered on this most dangerous mission in order to save lives suis generis.  Our US Military has been front and center in offering to sacrifice their own lives in order to save the countless thousands of African lives that are destined to die in this horrible hemorrhagic death, if the Ebola virus is not staved off and ‘neutralized’.  It’s a near to impossible mission but it has to be done.
I am very proud to say that our U.S military and the Executive Branch has stepped forward on this most dangerous of all missions.  Accordingly, credit must also be given to the brave men and women of the Communicable Disease Center [CDC] of Atlanta, Georgia. The U.S. Public Health Service, a quasi-military /civilian organization set up about a century ago has also been mobilized to stop this dreaded disease. Clearly, the original physicians and health workers of the religious charities that first contracted this terrible disease years ago in Africa must receive our gratitude for their bravery and fortitude in fighting this contamination.

Although I have written about this type of dreaded world-wide epidemic in one of my first novels, Blood Heat, I must admit that I have never personally or professionally encountered an epidemic of such proportions and lethality as Ebola.  At best, I had to worry about a break-out of Malaria, Salmonella, Giardia, Rabies and other less lethal pathogens.  I want to wish the best of luck to our brave men and women, military/civilians who are being deployed to West Africa.  Hopefully, they will  also be accompanied by other brave men/women from China, Russia, Europe and the Middle East.
Ebola may unite all our armies into one large combat unit that can act as an effective ‘counter-force’ against the parasitic enemies of mankind.  So lets put down our guns and, instead pick up our surgical masks and gloves in one simple act of universal defiance against mankind’s true enemy--- PATHOGENS!! Maybe the dreaded disease,  Ebola, can unite mankind in a way that all other forms of intervention have already failed. Fighting a common disease in order to enact a universal peace.

  1. I was in Sierra Leone during the ghastly, meyhem-ridden, drug-crazed warlord carnage of 1992-2000.

    All during that conflict the people begged and begged the British to return...to invade and occupy the country as a fellow member of the Commonwealth...and to save them from themselves.

    Imagine living in a place for year after year where your own government is in bed with drug-crazed demon-worshipping cannibal warlords who go from village to village lining people up to have their hands, feet, and ears cut off and put into baskets and garbage bags to walk around with....

    Imagine that your own government and it's army were doing this....and that no one on the planet gave a shit that it was going on for year after year until finally after eleven years the British and the UN finally came in when it became just too much of a embarrissment.

    In truth I was in Sierra Leone on July 14 2000 when a covert operation of SAS attacked 5 rebel bases one morning under the cover of a UN hostage rescue...

    The SAS destroyed all the bases in short order and wipped out the rebels in a single effort one morning which could have been done years earlier if anyone had cared.

    I was there in March 1995 when Soldier of Fortune editor McKenzie was ambushed by his own client...the government of Sierra Leone...and then his body taken away and chopped up and eaten in a nice west African BBQ. This veteran of San Salvador and Zimbabwe had no idea what the real game was in Sierra Leone...or what the people there or in Liberia were really like.

    The Liberians and Sierra Leoneans are your typical negro savages or a little bit more so. And they make the malfactors of ISIS seem tame.

    Those two countries were the focal points of slavery and slave trading before, then became the two most corrupt countries in all of Africa...then the horror of the 1990s....and now this...

    Best to leave them the fuck alone. Unless we want to invade them, make the place our plantation and put these savages to work for us let's not spend any money or put ourselves at risk again for their behalf.

    Karma is a bitch and it's karma that's at work in those two countries for what they've done to each other over many centuries...

    Go there if you want to see the hell negros or other monsters can make of this wonderful planet.

    And then watch American football and see the same kind of creatures who beat their wives and kids over nothing being cheered by stupid white people.

  2. Today 60% of blacks in South Africa say that CONDITIONS WERE MUCH BETTER FOR THEM UNDER APARTHEID.

    Under the corrupt, brutal, indifferent cleptocracy of majority black rule in South Africa life for blacks has become a living hell of lawlessness, violence, rape and mass poverty UKNOWN UNDER APARTHEID.

    At some point to save the continent of Africa, to save it's animals, speicies, ecology and even the negros themselves...

    All of Africa must be re-colonized somehow by non-negros and the blacks put once again into a status of chattle with no rights whatsoever...

    Either that or they must be exterminated by whatever means....bioweapons or whatever is available.

  3. Evil-doers like Geo. W. Bush, Clinton and others always kill those people who don't deserve to be killed and then go around saving the lives of people who deserve to die....

    That's the true essence of evil.

    1. Bush doesn't even let "God sort them out."

      He kills all the good people and leave the evil ones around to do more evil like himself.

      Bush sorts them based on his own demon-worshipping, Christian evangelical/Judaic malevolance.

  4. The great English explorer of Africa John Hanning Speak showed up there thinking he could treat the natives with civilized humanity and kindness....

    Then one of the villages he first encountered he had this experience....

    He showed his rifle to the Chief of the village, who took it and pointed it to the head of one of his wives and then shot her in the head. When her brains blew out and her limp body fell he immediately began to laugh, causing all his other terrified slave/subjects to laugh also...

    Thereafter when Speak went to back to Africa he brought with him a contingent of riflemen who shot and killed pretty much any and all natives they came across....

    That's the reality of Africa.

    So please no more sob stories about saving lives in Africa and sending MDs there okay....

    Speak knew the truth.

  5. You have to TAKE THE GIANT LEAP into TRUTH and FACT BASED EVIDENCE and then...

    SAY IT.

    The racists are right. The KKK is right. The racists of the South and Jim Crow...all right. The racists of Apartheid...RIGHT.

    Sorry but that's the fact based, evidence based truth.

  7. Dr P I am glad you said this as I was already starting to think it was being engineered as 'humanitarian' aid for a greater presense in Africa, kind of like Libya. I would not fancy fighting such a virus, I would rather fight a bear. I think they have a special kind of bravery to go into such a shithole situation. I do think a lot of aid in Africa is wasted due to corrupt War Lords and human nature. If a population thinks it has a food supply at an almost genetic level it will expand, then the supply is not enough anymore. They become almost like a cargo cult, wheras nature seems to trim its own cloth and the population responds accordingly. I have never understood why places like Africa do not have even basic infrastructure...a kind of pushing back against the environment. As happened in Europe with clothing, science and printing etc. I do not think it is cultural imperialism to suggest they might be lazy or the environment too hostile. Although I get it in some places where it is hot and fruit is falling of the trees, I would not have been arsed to invent anything either. As for attitudes to Wildlife, when they murdered the Silverback in 'Gorillas in the mist' I would have cheerfully machine-gunned them all. In fact they still have to basically bribe the locals to leave their great animals alone. Also It is passing strange how a few years ago there were a series of Hollywood films about 'Outbreak's' and Doomsday virus's I wonder if it some kind of predictive collective unconscious or just our basest fears manifesting on the screen and then in actual reality.

  8. Katrina reminds me over on Public Intelligence Blog, Greg Palast on Aug 27 had an interesting take on the flooding. He suggests that four oil companies over decades by stripping the wetlands removed the protective collar which would have muffled the storm waters, thus leaving New Orleans virtually without natural defences.

  9. I agree with your sentiments, although the British introduced apartheid in South Africa, not the Afrikaners. When the Afrikaner got his independent state apart from Britain, the policy was separate development of culture, language, education and economy. President Dr HF Verwoerd was not the immoral man which everyone makes him out to be. White South Africans were heavily taxed to support this separate development idea of tribal homelands. The whites never received a homeland of their own where they could develop their culture, but all the black tribes did, and we paid for it. The problem was that marxist ideals were stirred up among many blacks and they started their violent riots that led to the Nationalist state using force to curb that violence. Most black on black killings was done by revolutionaries against moderate blacks who were teachers, doctors and business people because they resisted the progressives' message of revolution.
