Did Obama Just Raise The Ebola Threat Level?

Tyler Durden's picture




 

4 weeks ago this is what President Obama said "the chances of an Ebola outbreak here in the United States are extremely low."

Today, having reassured Americans that "Ebola is not like the flu, it's not airborne," (despite experts' concerns that Ebola could indeed be aerogenically transmitted) Obama stated that a "widespread outbreak of Ebola in the US is 'unlikely'"

From "Extremely Low" to "Unlikely"... in a month.

Additional points:

  • *OBAMA SAYS CDC TO DEPLOY RAPID RESPONSE TEAMS FOR EBOLA
  • *OBAMA SAYS LOCAL HOSPITALS NEED TRAINING ON EBOLA PROTOCOLS
  • *OBAMA SAYS EBOLA `NOT LIKE THE FLU,' ISN'T AIRBORNE
  • *OBAMA SAYS WIDESPREAD OUTBREAK OF EBOLA IN U.S. `UNLIKELY'

Easy to see how quickly this goes 'viral'. 1 visitor infects at least 2 healthcare workers, one of which flys on a domestic flight putting at least 132 fellow passengers at risk. These 132 come into contact with hundreds/thousands more some of who take other flights exposing hundreds more...

Add to the mix of problem reaction solution, thesis antithesis synthesis memes being used to swing the pendulum harder and harder til it breaks out of the cuckoo clock. Then chaos, then reset.

Ebola, AIDS and Hemorragics ordered by H Kissinger (and others) in the 60s? Not saying that it doesn't exist, but do see many signs that the public importation of 'whatever it is', and the subsequent 'INCOMPETENCE' (????) of the CDC, are adding up to making sure the CONTAGIONOIA' is firmly in place for the unleashing of Medical Marshall Law. And most people will not only willingly accept, but will cheer as other parts of the country/state/town/community get their rights and liberties smashed/stolen. Boston was the beta-test, to see how 'citizens of the USSA' would respond to clear violation of Posse Commitatus, paramilitary home invasion without warrant, 'shelter in place (curfew) etc. Report is now tabled, path has been cleared for further (Fuhrer) transgression.

But you may like it if you want to take 20+ days off work over Christmas because you have a sniffle.  Remember when you could maybe have a few days off but still felt compelled to go back to the office whilst still feeling like crap?  Not gonna be so keen to see you now, are they? Noooooo.  And yeah, claiming you have Ebola so you don't have to go to work might not be so great for the economy, but it's fucked already! See? Everybody wins! (sort of).

Weasel words: "widespread". Liberia population: 4.2 million. Ebola cases: 9000 (so far). That's an infection rate of 0.2%.

Is 0.2% "widespread"? How many cases do we need until the Prez starts to get concerned?

Bank lobby and Obama wanted to subdue the Pemanent Power (or deep state if you will).

Now the Permanent Power (or Pentagon if you will) will humiliate him and obliterate bank lobby

I still have not excluded removal from power (not a coup) if he still keeps vetoing ground troops. They will find a way.

They are the Permanent Power.

No. Not at all.

Pentagon runs Medical Intelligence center.

It is their job to detect epidemics, report them to the president and congress and make plans in advance.

 

I strongly suspect that Obama vetoed (as usual) anything Pentagon proposed to stop Obola. 

As it normally goes, Pentagon would leak such information in order to revenge on Obama for trying to dismantle them.

I can remember the.SARS scare a few.years ago when I worked at BP's headquarters. The HSE people held meetings on business continuity when everyone was supposedly going to be falling over in the streets. They bought a tractor trailer full of respirators and we had so many we had to stack the boxes against the hallway walls. The paranoia was bizarre....

I think this thing is so much worse, but I do not see the level of freakout like before.

Obama is guilty of misfeasance and malfeasance in office. He is a criminal.

We have reached the point where we tell the Black Racists who support him to go to He11. We tell the Hispanic Racists (In particular, La Raza), the Gay Mafia, the Obamabots, the Islamic jihadist front organizations (Muslim Brotherhood, et. al), the MSM, and the Hollywood celebrities, to do the same.

We show up at our congressional delegations' Town Halls - and their offices in their districts and if we have to - we sit in until the pressure can't be resisted.

If they can mobilize in Hong Kong - we can mobilize to save our lives, the lives of our children, grandchildren, extended family, and the rest of humanity in America.

This transcends politics - this is a genuine life or death crisis. Obama must be removed from office because he is insane - literally - with desire to import all the illegals he can get over the border. He is showing a reckless disregard for human life (the legal definition of 2nd Degree Murder), by opening the door to Death in America.

Obama must go. He is aiding and abetting mass homicide in America. If you are a Left Wing Looney Tunes Obama droid and can't grasp this concept, I'm sorry you are a mental midget.

His insane policies are responsible for the open invasion of illegals carrying not just this, but God knows what other diseases.

Black Racists, Hispanic Racists (especially the ultra-racist La Raza), Gay Mafia heterophobic hate-speakers, Islamic jihadist front organizations in America (Muslim Brotherhood, et. al), MSM propagandists, political hacks, air-for-brains cops, kiss-up military flag officers . . . it's over for Obama. Move out of the way, or watch society overwhelm you.

Get rid of him peacefully, or be prepared to see America erupt into a blazing fire of violence against *you* for trying to keep him around.

Will:

 

If you cast my horoscope, you'll find that Mars was in Scorpio at the moment of my birth.

 

I believe that astrology is a type of "telling time" for the universe. That is why the Bible notes that the stars and planets in the sky are there for our benefit to denote the "seasons," which in the Hebrew means much more than merely the four parts of the year.

 

You'll note, for example, that the celestial clock foretold the birth of Jesus - the astrologers (Wise Men) knew by looking at the celestial clock that it was time for this event.

 

The stars and planets do not control actions - any more than your watch controls your actions (iWatch excluded . . . ?). If you see it is time for an appointment, then you go to it. The watch didn't somehow take control of your mind. It is a benchmark to do certain things at certain intervals.

 

As in the Jesus example, this clock tells you what to expect at a certain "time;" for example, looking at your watch you can expect the sun to set at a certain time, and rise at another. You can plan your activities knowing this information. The celestial clock provides a similar framework for our lives.

 

No two people have exactly the same horoscope - despite what detractors say. They are ignorant that not only is the time involved in casting a scope, but the location as well. For that reason, no two people are born at exactly the same instant, in exactly the same place. Even twins have some time between them - therefore, every person has a unique chart.

 

Back to your question - Mars in Scorpio reflects a "timestamp" of my personality. Understand it, and you will understand a portion of my personality - while you must still keep in mind that there are many other factors involved as well - so think of it as a Biblical "looking through a glass, darkly."

 

I felt it applied to ZH, and its Fight Club, so I decided to use it.

 

Thank you for your interest.

EBOLA Biological Warfare – Is India Prepared ?


It turns out that there is a vaccine against Ebola. Pentagon scientists were developing it for 30 years, and all the rights for the drug belong to the government of the United States. Two infected US medics received injections of the vaccine and they started recovering from the disease immediately. Why has this been made public only now?

Why is it that the USA holds all the rights for the use of the vaccine?

There can be two most obvious answers to these questions.As one can see, Ebola is a perfect biological weapon: it spreads quickly and gives nearly 100% mortality rate. Those having the life-saving vaccine can dictate any conditions to others.

The second answer is a purely commercial interest. It is enough to arrange panic with the help of the media, as it was the case with several epidemics before, such as avian flu. Afterwards, it will be possible to sell the life-saving medicine at any price.

However, Russian scientists doubt that the Americans created the medicine indeed. Russian scientists also conducted the research to study the nature of the virus to be able to create the vaccine against it. Soviet scientists, for example, Professor Alexander Butenko, was a member of the joint Soviet-Guinean expedition in 1982 and spent nearly a year in the rain forests of Guinea, when the then unknown virus was discovered.

Strategy of Biological Warfare

On Dec. 10, 1974, the U.S. National Security Council under Henry Kissinger completed a classified 200-page study, “National Security Study Memorandum 200Implications of Worldwide Population Growth for U.S. Security and Overseas Interests.” The study falsely claimed that population growth in the so-called Lesser Developed Countries (LDCs) was a grave threat to U.S. national security. Adopted as official policy in November 1975 by President Gerald Ford, NSSM 200 outlined a covert plan to reduce population growth in those countries through birth control, and also, implicitly, war and famine. Brent Scowcroft, who had by then replaced Kissinger as National Security Adviser (the same post Scowcroft was to hold in the Bush administration), was put in charge of implementing the plan. CIA Director George Bush was ordered to assist Scowcroft, as were the secretaries of state, treasury, defense, and agriculture.

Ebola virus is so small (0.8-1 um x 0.08 um) that it can be spread even by the smallest droplets produced by a human breathing, talking, coughing, sneezing (smallest respiratory droplets are 5 um or smaller).

In this sense it absolutely is possible to be infected by dropets via air, and in addition the virus stays infectious for upto 90 minutes on surfaces. Anyone denying this is lying.
