President Obama Explains Why He Is Sending 10x More Troops To Fight Ebola Than ISIS - Live Feed
As we discussed earlier, President Obama is sending 3,000 US combat troops into Ebola-fighting danger in West Africa (almost 10 times the number of non-combat troops being sent to Iraq and Syria to fight that other epidemic - ISIS). Speaking from the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention, we wonder if the President will stick to the line that the USA is "safe" (despite scientists predicting a 20% chance of infection here by year-end), that it is contained (despite scientists proclaiming this unprecedented and out of control), and why is the CDC telling US health-workers "now is the time to prepare."
One can only assume the reason to send "troops" is to monitor and mind 'stability' in these nations as The IMF steps up its bailout funding...
President Obama is due to speak at 1605ET - plan accordingly...

Oh, great. This guy again.
Fuck off already, asshole.
Wonderful messianic complex, thinking that simply by his presence, speaking to the masses (thinking Sermon on the Mount) he can change the course of mankind, shape it to his perceptions of right and good. He has painfully learned otherwise. The teeming masses no longer await his beck and call. In fact, many now scurry away from his affinity, avoiding complicity.
He has painfully learned otherwise? I don't think he's learned anything of the sort. If he saw himself the way the rest of the world sees him, he'd never open his fucking mouth again.
Why is the CDC telling US health-workers "A person infected with Ebola virus is not contagious until symptoms appear."
How is Ebola transmitted?
The virus is spread through direct
contact (through broken skin or unprotected mucous membranes in, for
example, the eyes, nose, or mouth) with the blood or body fluids (
urine, feces, saliva, semen, and other secretions) of a person who is
sick with Ebola, or with objects like needles that have been
contaminated with the virus, or infected animals. Ebola is not spread
through the air or by water or, in general, by food; however, in Africa,
Ebola may be spread as a result of hunting, processing, and consuming
infected animals (e.g., bushmeat).
Can I get Ebola from a person who is infected but doesn’t have any symptoms?
No. A person infected with Ebola virus is not contagious until symptoms appear.
http://www.strac.org/index.php/ebola
The virus can be present in blood or body fluids (
urine, feces, saliva, semen, and other secretions ) before the person is symptomatic.
This may not be the single dumbest idea since Adam,
but it's a contender.
What ratio of military votes republican
3000 more bodies to be infected, then returned home.
The first thing to do with a contageous disease is to isolate it.
1. Stop ALL air traffic into the US and EU from Africa.
What's so hard to understand about that??
This is yet another fake front line
http://philosophyofmetrics.com/2014/09/16/ebola-and-west-africas-offshor...
Do not worry guys, it will come from another side.
First bombing asssad instead of fake isis, then secure west africa, turn venezuela and finally attack russia from inside.
And clear all debts via this. Oh wait!
fixed
Where is Congress in this Insanity?
Congress should immediately prohibit spending any money on this military action
and then impeach and convict Obama of Treason.
He's sending troops to control China, not Ebola
clean up team needed in liberia, the troops will be yelling"bring out your dead", digging massive graves with cat D9s while avoiding body fluids per regulations of higher command. of course higher command will be in DC or texas, they are too important to risk getting ill..if you are a soldier sailor or marine ordered to this operation, go awol asap.
Why are all the ZH'ers so hung up on facts?
That tends to tarnish the total bull shit coming out of MSM.
They may have a drone for that you know. Cat D9 with robot hands, guns, and grenade launchers. The operator is in a big armored utility vehicle a few miles away. When it is getting ready to run out of power, the operator drives it back to the bigger vehicle, opens the bay doors, brings the crew out in hazmet suits to spray the fucker down with hard core "final solution," fuels it up from the armored tanker vehicle that rolls with them, performs maintenance if needed, then drives it on up and into the ramp, closes the bay doors, and moves on to the next destination. Set up, bury some more, wash, rinse, repeat.
Support vehicles would roam up and down between working drones to resupply other items.
congress "should" be doing a lot more things.....
but alas..
Believe me the Rahm Emanuels. the David Axelrods, and the others who pull the strings of the mulatto marionette, know EXACTLY what they are doing. They mean you ILL.
"3000 more bodies to be infected, then returned home."
This is so fuck.ng stupid that it could only come out of a fucki.g liberal brain!
It sounds pretty well right on the money to this ignorant bastard. Combat troops may not be too well versed in the intricacies of infection control. Doctors who've worked with infectious disease all their lives are getting it...why the fuck would you expect a highschool dropout in fatigues to be immune?
EDIT: misreading of comment. Sorry.
This is the very crisis Dear Leader has been waiting for! Now he can bring home sick troops and infect the whole country to get half the population into FEMA camps and put those 2 Billion Hollow Point Bullets the Feds have purchased to good use! How soon do you think we hear martial law in the "homeland". The DHS domestic army can march into all the cities and towns right along with the rest of the troops. Posse comitatus and all the rest of that stinking anachronism the domestic terrorists call the Constitution be damned! Finally a way to be able to assert absolute control! Cant wait.
Ranks right up there with Eve.
Ranks right up there with only giving God a rib to work with, should have handed him an arm and a leg.. Old jokes never die..
i just hope we don't declare 'war on ebola', those don't go well for the US. We are losing the war on drugs, poverty, terrorism, etc. If we declare war on ebola, we are truly fucked....
We got 6 mos....maybe
it's airborne. My wife says so. There is not other explanation for the amount of HC workers getting it. Prep is right. All we need is some more ammo and some more food...my fear is that mosquitoes will carry it. it's coming. Bank on it.
Since first documented in the Reston case (airborne between separate rooms by ventilation) every single outbreak has been so. And documented as such
That this time it's not is myth, lore, balderdash, perceptions management, hope and stoopididty
Poppycock is another good word....
A sick old lady shared the room with the dying Port Harcourt Nigerian doctor (Dr. Emelou?). She now has Ebola.I cannot imagine the two of them doing the nasty, swapping spit, or sharing any other kind of bodily fluids in that environment.
One can use the term airborne, aerosolized, whatever. I am NOT a medical guy. But this shit looks like it's really going down badly, folks.
And by the way, the nurse's aide to that dying Dr, was successful in her 21 day observation period as regards to being symptom free. Six days later, this past Monday, she was escorted into an emergency room of her university - Obafemi Awolowo University - with bloody diarrhea and vomiting.
New standard 28 day quarantine needed?
How about a lifetime quarantine for anyone traveling from the Ebola Hot Zone.
I thought about insect issues coming as well. Ebola, bad hygene, lime disease, etc.

We buy a case of Saranex suits for less than $50 at work.
He who panics last, pays the most.
How many in a case?
Just in case.
$50 for a case? Where?
Nah, nothing but good news for us exceptional people.
"in Africa, Ebola may be spread as a result of hunting, processing, and consuming infected animals"
Read that a couple of times.
First, "In Africa"
Sure as fuck, it only does that in Africa and nowhere else.
Second, "Hunting and processing ... infected animals"
Oh so even if the animals display no symptoms they can transmit....
Do they really think we're so fucking stooopid that we cannot even read and process bullshit as bullshit?
Did you hear about the Prostitute with Ebola that asked to use the Gas Station bathroom...
Yeah I think it was outside LA in Hollywood.
So, she asks since she really has to go, and she is pregnant so she is really at her limit. So the attendent looks around to see if there are any people in the car lot where they have a booth and he asks her to service him then use the bathroom.
10 days later the guy is dead, but good news is the woman and baby survive. Of course don't visit Hollywood and stay away from that chick's old corner.
-just a story
Hey, if he says so...it ain't contagious...so stop bitchin'

Answer to question: Who is more dangerous to humanity?
knukles;
Here is my Prediction from this token effort which is dangerous to the Quarantine and to USA, and too our US Troops...
Based on:
- $500 Million for Ebola Task Force
- Technical War on Russia
- Needed Support for Ukraine with High Tech
- DoD Budget down $50 Billion since 2011
- War Hawks Demanding More Money for Contractors and a Token number of new Troops
2015 will see over $50 Billion added to DoD Budget by years end, who know on the Black Ops side.
Don't worry. In a few years time, a brand new asshole will be in the White House.
Who says this fucking asshole will wanna leave?
Nah. TPTB won't risk rousing the ire of 'murikans by installing a permanent dictator. We'll just get a new dictator with more power every four years (or eight).
Did you hear the story of what happened when John D. Rockafeller heard about "Communism"?
Well see there was a banker that set up a meeting to discuss this very important trend from Europe. It was about 1890 just when the Robberbarons had become the richest men in America (or the World). In attendance was none other than John Pierpont Morgan, himself.
Banker: Sir this is a populist movement an offshoot from Socialism called Communism who ideas were put forth by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engles. We believe this is a strong and dangerous trend in view of the Union movement of workers. Mainly the idea is that all men are equal, capitalism is bad, and all men should earn the same amount of money and work for the state and for the future of the state. This equality extend to luxuries which they claim are unfair to those that don't have them.
John D: Well then under communism all men are poor.
JP Morgan: Yes, quiet true. And we may want to fight this with the full power of the government & military. Or alternatively we might want to make it a political issue and try to turn it to advantage.
John D: You mean we could convince people to accept low wages if they think they are serving the state?
JP Morgan: It would be a great victory. The trend now for strikes and workers unions is to ask for more money. And it seems that under this "Communism" they plan to educate the people to prepare for a Revolution.
John D: Well... it seems like the Strikers are plenty educated already. We have to get out in front of this. Perhaps we can start educational foundations to influence what is taught and to keep education limited to "Capitalist Ideas.
JP Morgan: We have to address several sides all at once, political, educational, military as we have in Latin America and the Islands, and our supervisors and managers will stress the principals of success that we need for our factories.
John D: So, we declare war on Communism, suppress communism, suppress the workers unions & strikes, and set up educational foundations and go to work on universities. Plus we will always need more workers coming to our factories and America to keep wages competitive (low). However we will continue to import produce or whatever we need from outside. But how can we really make Communism work for us in the USA?
JP Morgan: We will know more as we work through the "Set Up" of your foundations. Firstly we will use Psychology from Europe, I know a few good men. Secondly we rely on principals of not upsetting the people, letting people have their sports and families, letting them be distracted by the things we want to teach them. We will repeat the messages we want successful workers to learn to be successful. A man will be judged by his success and how he works. The value here is work. Be on time for work. Follow a Schedule. Don't waste time eating or taking breaks. The hard workers are successful and loved by other men.
John D: Very good. I think we can set some strong goals for our new Foundations. What about this "Economics" study? Do you think you can use their work?
JP Morgan: No. That may actually be traced to Socialist Ideas. We can incorporate it into the Foundations Educational work, but only to claim it as our own. Yes, it is good to be in front of trends. We will look to claim History, US History, Government Studies, Cultural Studies, Literature, communism & economics. If we are smart we can have our people teaching all of these subjects to not only workers, university students, teachers, but also to our Politicians and Government Leaders.
John D: Look, we need debt to bring people to us. Communism won't be accepted without a huge debt scare or bank scare. Is that what you are thinking?
JP Morgan: Yes, either debt or expenses, control over the product they need or the service they want. War brings people to their knees. War depletes the treasury of all countries, but their money flows to the sellers and the bankers. Then they have to ask for more money. people will accept this idea of working for less to help the state, just as they accept going to war to help the state. The only block is the US Constitution and the workings of each independent state of the union. War & Debt is the key. It is the cycle of all countries. Lawyers will also have to be part of our educational process within the foundation work and that means universities too. Probably we will train the people who will later become the justices in all of the courts and the legislators in all of the governing bodies. People come quickly around when explained to them why they work. The Law and the Government takes long range planning and conditioning. But they have to come to us in the end for financing. It will be a great victory.
John D: Someone is going to win & someone is going to lose. We are going to win. We are going to build the biggest companies along with cities & states. Pierpont, you are coming with me. You have to set up the banking system so that we can get the financing. Now, tell me about that Central Bank.
JP Morgan: Don't worry about that Sir. It will take some time. Whether we have royalty or politicians then need us and will do what we tell them. In the US we have it much easier. Just give us time and we will have all of the politicians pulling for us.
And so "Communist Ideas" were adopted officially in the USA in 1997... just before bankruptcy laws were strengthened, Sub-prime mortgages took off, Citibank Merged with AIG, and Glass Steagall Act was repealed.
Final Phase of Banker Installed Revolution can only occur after total economic collapse and collapse of the US Government.
No, this one's truly an example of American "exceptionalism" in the Oval Office. Our first affirmative action president.
Like Knuk said, above, even his strongest supporters are sliding back into the shadows rather than being seen with him. His presidency is OVER. We're just running out the clock watching that buffoon dart betewen his "pen and phone" and the golf course. Knowing full well he's completely detatched from reality.
Unlike Bush, you mean?
Nah it's just how it works. The media, the politicians, the owne^H^H^H^H donors... the entire circus is starting to gear up to elect the next clown in office.
Another tell is his continued desire to see and be seen by the masses as if it were he in 1984 perpetually on the screen, Big Brother leading the plebes. Perpetual nonsensical empty rhetoric, desperately hoping that he will become relevant and significant once again.
I believe that he "gave up" long ago on the raised dais, the stage in Mile High Stadium, surrounded by crying teeming masses, weeping, screaming in adulation, framed by StyroFoam Doric columns.
Since then, there's been nothing to do, no challenges, for His Goal Has Been Met. Not to govern, but what has disappeared, there has been no continued exemplary positive feedback, no unbounded reinforcement.
The theater has gone silent.
Even he knows the MSM is a shill, empty, providing false accolades.
He is aware that the propaganda is false, deeply disturbed that the people know it to be false, as well
What clothes, Dear Emperor?
It must be terrible, the cognitive dissonance of the ego-maniac with a deeply entrenched inferiority complex.
Ha! ?
Since when you fight disease with army and guns?
Next time i got flu they will send me a soldier? Or should i visit a navy colonel with appendix?
Great new ideas! Truly revolutionaire!
Next time i got flu they will send me a soldier?
Yeah, they'll call it a "flu shot." Double tapp.
To be a Dottore is so passe these times :)
This is beyond ridiculous.
Lame Ducks still have hookers & coke from Wall Street TBTF.
Plus we don't know if he has liaisons at the Golf Locker Room.
Hey a happy president means more peace, right? less War has got to be good. Maybe we should encourage him to philander and golf and go to the Bathhouses.
Make your president happy an bring peace to the world. /s
knukles - you got it. he's afraid of the bullet in his head. i suspect at this point his 'mentors' have stepped back and don't contact him anymore. they don't tell him what to do or say. he's on his own. they know he's going to drop the ball, big time, he knows he is also. they moved on to the next project.
he is totally unqualified for the job, whether via connections, experience, smarts, guts etc. he was an ego-maniac and took the job. they suckered him and he got suckered. now he know it. he is scared. in way over his head.
hey - sucker. is that noble prize worth anything for gold weight?
The word "hubris" comes to mind.
He's gone full blown retard.
And you never go full retard!
his marriage is over also. this will be the first where she finally realizes she got fooled and checks out. it happens.
global btch #1 still thinks being attached helps her. i think what it really does is keep him on the string from telling
what he knows about her, and can you imagine, it's worse than what we already know about him.
Ohhhh Obammy you nieve little boy, those 3000 troops should have been sent 3 months ago, but you of course needed to play 100 rounds of golf to clear the mind, before deciding on anything!!!
Let me tell you a little secret DC delusional fuck ups, it doesn't have to reach Anerican shores, for the American public to decend into paranoid, hoarding lunatics and plunge the economy of the West into the toilet, it just needs to reach Mexico City!! The rest is rather obvious from there, isn't it????
Who's going to pack into a football stadium in Texas, SD, Florida, or AZ when that news hits?? Are they going to play patriotic songs and tell us it's our duty to go get Ebola for the economy??
Please

Best damn insurance against assassination ever. That was a chess move.
huh? by a pigeon?
@ least they are both US born nonmuslim American citizens
Now there's a shitty deployment.
No kidding. What a bad assignment - watch people die while avoiding catching it yourself. Ebola attacks your inner organs, you bleed from the inside out. The disease can kill you in 2-5 days once it ramps up. very painful.
What are these troops going to do, shoot people who try and get out? That's great.
The OP is called this or that Medical plus Corp of Engineers for Engineering Facilities for Biological Infection.
- But how do you secure the Perimeter?
- How many do you put on perimeter Duty?
- Okay so Engineers can set up a perimeter with concertina wire with limited number of gates
- How do panicked people act if they think they need "American Treatment Urgently"
- Do you assign MPs to handle crowd control?
- Do you set up facilities 2 miles outside of towns & cities and force victims to walk or crawl to get treatment?
Stand by, to stand by, the Chief always said right before....
Maybe he can help a brother out, you see I cant decide if I should buy more JNJ because when Ebola gets here there will be new-found demand for adult diapers or TWTR because of the increase in tweets about where the newest outbreaks are occurring.
Hell I guess I'll just buy more of both. In this market it doesn't matter what you buy anyway, it all goes higher if you give from a few milliseconds to a week.
"President Obama is sending 3,000 US combat troops into Ebola-fighting danger in West Africa"
I assume the real reason for these is to coral infected people into makeshift camps to control the spread of the virus.
Oh to be so naive. I can only assume you were being sarcastic.
Out of the mouth of babes, my grandaughter said:
Its here, and they want the troops to know how to deal with it.
Naive? Not me, maybe you. Do you think if Ebola hit the US or any other western country bigtime that the army would not be called in to take charge and coral infected people into isolation camps?
Once a liar always a liar.
Once a pol, always a liar.
An American, not US subject.

What a nasty choice choice, bones or organs, either stay in the states and eat, breathe, drink strontium little by little, or go to Africa and take your chances with ebola.
I'm thinking it will be the Marines. They are expected to do the most, with the least. It's a good fit.
Troops to Africa, but none for the US border........You throw 3000 of our troops into this cesspool, he is guaranteeing that the disease will come here in force.
At the current rates there will be 100k infected in 3 months. That is enough of a sampling of the population to get it flung into every major country easily. I believe these troops are the first 'invasion' wave to ensure the governments there stay US controlled when everything collapses.
Ebola, it hates our freedom..
Eboma, it hates our freedom.
Copied from previous thread....
WTF would happen if an enlistee contracted Ebola? Also, would they fly the person back to a VA hospital?
I know, I know,
Don't Ask, Don't Tell
This just seems so sinister.
Seems?
Seems sinsiter?
Come on, where's your sense of clarity?
It Is Sinister!
I so appreciate your clarity ! And yes, you are right. This is just awful. This is the stuff rebellions stem from.
Nobody uses a Gulfstrem business jet as a dedicated medivac aircraft. The Gulfstream jet temporarily configured to bring back back the two US doctors to Atlanta was operated by a company with extensive ties to the US government. It was probably used for "rendition" more than once. The company's website seems as fake as you can get.
It's Phoenix Air in Cartersville, GA, a nothing burg just north of Atlanta.
I was thinking something like that myself - perhaps it's Obama's effort at getting revenge on the VA for their Death List Waiting List scandal earlier. But really, the VA is for when you leave the service - it's the DOD hospitals that would get the patient first -- and the chances of becoming a discharged Vet are not very favorable right now if you catch Ebola.
No thank you I'll pass. I'm preparing to have dinner with my family. The last thing I need is to have this turd on my mind.
Same strategy.... "go in and solve the fu**ng problem, you must know how... you are the fu**ng pro´s ...right. Call when its all clear... I´m at tee eight.
sending troops to fight ebola. jeez.
Best stay out China- We got some humanitarian work to do!
Sounds like ye ole measles on the blankets trick to me.
Ebola proven to kill grass on golf courses?
They are bound and determined to have a major crisis here in the States. The insanity will continue until someone puts a stop to it.
goldman sachs owns the company that (secretly) has the vaccine
It would appear the reason that Kasim Reed, mayor of Atlanta was invited to Bilderberg this year was to inform him that Atlanta would be the epicenter of an Ebola outbreak and subsequent CDC/big pharma windfall from an Ebola vaccine.
"It is unfair that Ebola is only affecting my homeland of Africa. Therefore, I am sending 3,000 troops to ensure non-discrimination."
Or would that be "Over 3000 Africans have died from Ebola - it's whittey's turn"?
Why send the fucking army ? Is this going to be a zombie shoot ? Where is the UN ? Where's all the bleeding heart hollywood limousine liberals ? Where are all the Muslim "we are a religion of peace" volunteers?
USG will set up a safe LZ so Ben Affleck and Sean Penn can get a quick photo op with some sickly-looking Liberians who have been living in quarantine past the ebola incubation period who definitely are not infected.
Yes, a stupid move, but this is about Obama's ego, not the U.S. or the safety of its citizens (i.e. - his oath of office).
Way to go Nigger......You are the greatest of all time!!
Way to make the ZH community look like racists, jackass.
And in sort of related news. Just like the CDC holding patents on the ebola virus while claiming they are importing in infected doctors out of compassion who happen to be infected with a strain they don't hold the patent on.
http://benswann.com/truth-in-media-feds-says-cannabis-is-not-medicine-wh...
Truth in Media: Feds Say Cannabis Is Not Medicine While Holding The Patent on Cannabis as Medicine...
What you need to know, is where the U.S. government actually stands on this issue. Cannabis, marijuana, is today still a Schedule 1 Drug. That means, according to our government it has no medicinal use and has a high potential for abuse. Does our government really believe that? No. In 1999, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services filed for a patent for the use of cannabinoids for medicinal purposes.
Also in 1999, HHS filed for a second patent, specifically for cannabis oil for the treatment of disease. That’s right, our government through the taxpayer funded Department of Health and Human Services holds two patents on cannabinoids and cannabis oil to treat certain diseases like alzheimer’s and auto-immune diseases like crohn’s.

Anyone seeing a pattern here.

What do the troops sent to Africa think of all this?

"I'll urn me a final resting place."
"Hope I don't die."
That is what the one I asked said late last night when this first came out.
Can I go AWOL and escape to Canada?
I hope he makes me feel better about everything. Boy, I really need to get one of those Obama bumper stickers on my car so everyone knows I'm an asshole too. Obama: "Um, blah blah blah, and blah blah blah, and um blah............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................."
Lesson 1: The ultimate socialist trip = Be charitable with other people's money, then take risks with other people's lives.
Lesson 2: Never give up an African colony. The natives are incapable of governing of themselves or planning for the future.
Oh. And he's leaving the CDC in Atlanta in 5pm traffic. With all 80 cars.
Thanks, buddy
It could be worse. It could be snowing.
I think they do that on purpose. Just to make sure all of us plebs know our place. He probably sucks all that negative energy focused on him up with a straw. Nice meal if thats your sustanance.
CIA-Obama: "I'm sending troops to Africa to really try to thwart the Chinese who are buying influence and resources there with our "printed" fiat. I'm not sending many to "fight" the ISIS because the whole thing is a CIA, the guys I work for, construct to enable Israel's Lebensraum, Greater Israel, and pipeline to Europe. And of course the whole thing is designed to make me and my supposed party, the Democrats, look weak and dangerous so as to reinvigorate and prepare the evangelical Christian right for backing one party rule by the neo-cons. Ditto the false border/illegals 'crisis' right before the midterms. I swear, you guys are such a bunch of maroons. Now where's my putter?"
An American, not US subject.
Six years of foreign policy in a paragraph. Well done.

What a fitting tribute, I see its future, littered with bodies.
Boy we make those folks suck some seriously nasty stuff down don't we? They might be a lot better off without us and all our "aid." With friends like us, who needs enemies.
While the CDC can say that US doctors need to prepare for Ebola - the President cannot say anything like that (even if it is true). It would start a great panic and supplies would be stripped from every store as people hoarded items. Accept the window of opportunity, and make sure you have plenty of supplies stashed for when Ebola does come a-knocking.

The pussification of the US military. It started with the 'Army of One' campaign. Really? An army of one? Talk about divided we stand, divided we fall.
It only got worse from there and it continues with our limp-wristed commander in chief with the campaign about 'doing good across the world.'
I always thought a military was there to protect our freedom, not nation-build and deliver diapers to under-privileged third world hell holes.
What caliber gun do you use to fight ebola?
Think bigger. You use love and compassion and celebrate diversity when combating ebola.
nothing smaller than a 420mm howitzer
stands any chance of being effective

That is the whole problem with this, informed consent is not possible until after they are educated. Only then could they genuinely volunteer to go.

Like other African countries, Liberia’s commercial engagement with China has increased substantially over the past few years, exemplified by the signing of the $2.6 billion Bong mine deal between Liberia and a Chinese consortium—the single largest investment in Liberia.

Bong Town (also known as Bong Mine Community or just Bong) is a populated place in the Bong County of Liberia.[1]
The Bong Mining Company was founded by Thyssen (Germany).
From its establishment in 1958 though the late 1980s, the Bong Mining Company (BMC), a German-Italian-owned concession in Liberia built a substantial mining complex to surface mine the iron ore of the mountain range just on the north side of the Margibi/Bong county borderline. Notably, the company constructed and maintained one of Liberia's main rail lines to the remote site to ship the iron ore from the mountains.
...
Since 2009, the China Union Investment Company concession has begun to rebuild the complex and also has begun construction of a new paved road southward to Kakata.

China-Union Investment has made its first shipment of iron ore from Liberia since taking over Bong Mines in 2008 with a $2.6 billion investment, an important step in the economic revival of the West African state.
The company shipped 50,000 tonnes of ore worth around $1 million in royalties, $2.5 million in tax revenue and $3.5 million in social contributions, China-Union officials said.
China-Union took over Bong Mines, located around 150 km (94 miles) northeast of the capital, with one of the largest sums put into the country since President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf was first elected in 2005 following a civil war.
It aims to ship 10 million tonnes by 2016. As part of the deal, the firm agreed to pave the road to the town of Kataka.
Iron represents one of Liberia's key resources..

ArcelorMittal, the world's largest steelmaker, BHP and other firms have moved into the country to tap iron ore reserves.

Remarkably, little of Bush's dealings with Germany has received public scrutiny, partly because of the secret status of the documentation involving him. But now the multibillion dollar legal action for damages by two Holocaust survivors against the Bush family, and the imminent publication of three books on the subject are threatening to make Prescott Bush's business history an uncomfortable issue for his grandson, George W, as he seeks re-election.
While there is no suggestion that Prescott Bush was sympathetic to the Nazi cause, the documents reveal that the firm he worked for, Brown Brothers Harriman (BBH), acted as a US base for the German industrialist, Fritz Thyssen, who helped finance Hitler in the 1930s before falling out with him at the end of the decade. The Guardian has seen evidence that shows Bush was the director of the New York-based Union Banking Corporation (UBC) that represented Thyssen's US interests and he continued to work for the bank after America entered the war.
Bush was also on the board of at least one of the companies that formed part of a multinational network of front companies to allow Thyssen to move assets around the world.
Thyssen owned the largest steel and coal company in Germany and grew rich from Hitler's efforts to re-arm between the two world wars. One of the pillars in Thyssen's international corporate web, UBC, worked exclusively for, and was owned by, a Thyssen-controlled bank in the Netherlands. More tantalising are Bush's links to the Consolidated Silesian Steel Company (CSSC), based in mineral rich Silesia on the German-Polish border. During the war, the company made use of Nazi slave labour from the concentration camps, including Auschwitz. The ownership of CSSC changed hands several times in the 1930s, but documents from the US National Archive declassified last year link Bush to CSSC, although it is not clear if he and UBC were still involved in the company when Thyssen's American assets were seized in 1942.
Three sets of archives spell out Prescott Bush's involvement. All three are readily available, thanks to the efficient US archive system and a helpful and dedicated staff at both the Library of Congress in Washington and the National Archives at the University of Maryland.

He was an artillery captain in the first world war and married Dorothy Walker, the daughter of George Herbert Walker, in 1921.
In 1924, his father-in-law, a well-known St Louis investment banker, helped set him up in business in New York with Averill Harriman, the wealthy son of railroad magnate E H Harriman in New York, who had gone into banking.
One of the first jobs Walker gave Bush was to manage UBC. Bush was a founding member of the bank and the incorporation documents, which list him as one of seven directors, show he owned one share in UBC worth $125.
The bank was set up by Harriman and Bush's father-in-law to provide a US bank for the Thyssens, Germany's most powerful industrial family.

Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (BBH) is the oldest and largest private bank in the United States.[2][3] In 1931, the merger of Brown Brothers & Co. (founded in 1818) and Harriman Brothers & Co. formed the current BBH.
Brown Brothers Harriman is also notable for the number of influential American politicians, government appointees, and Cabinet members who have worked at the company, such as W. Averell Harriman, Prescott Bush, George H. W. Bush, Robert A. Lovett, Richard W. Fisher, Robert Roosa, and Alan Greenspan.

President Obama is sending 3,000 troops because it is a military 'beachhead' in that African area; with the charming disguise of 'helping' out peoole from disease : The War on Ebola, or some other corny, insipid moniker.
Maybe this will get the military to finally realise that their leader is a complete idiot (assuming they don't already know). What exactly are they supposed to do? Shoot the virus. Or maybe, just shoot anyone that appears to have the virus. Or shoot anyone who might get the virus. That would work.
