General: US Troops Who Contract Ebola Will Be Quarantined in Liberia
Breitbart ^ | Oct. 18, 2014 | Edwin Mora

If any American soldiers in Liberia contract the deadly Ebola virus, they will be quarantined, stabilized, and evacuated to a medical facility for treatment, said the Ebola mission commander, adding that the U.S. military hospitals that will admit potentially infected troops have not yet been identified.

“If, God forbid, one of these soldiers, sailors, airmen, or marine contracted this disease, as I mentioned, they would be stabilized, they would be quarantined, we would go through the appropriate protocols,” Maj. Gen. Darryl Williams, commander of U.S. Army Africa, said on October 16 while briefing reporters in the Pentagon by telephone from Liberia. “People would be attending to them in the appropriate PPE [personal protective equipment]."

The Obama Death Sentence

Fly infected Africans to the USA for the best treatment available but sentence our patriotic military to second class treatment.

This administration just can’t find enough ways to flip all of us off.

Obama is doing his best to push people over the edge and cause some sort of violence or overt threat of violence to justify even more tyrannical action.

"protocols"

-------------------------->

There is the magic word: Protocol.

What exactly is the protocol - we keep getting glimpses but none of them seem to jive.

I guess we should just take "protocol" at face value and "have a nice day".

“protocol” is doublespeak for bio war

We are using the 101st headquarters element, (or part of it) as the headquarters unit to coordinate this operation.

Three hundred of the 700 people drawn from the 101st, are from headquarters.

Makes sense, as we wouldn’t want them to infect all the Liberians coming here.

If ANY of our Troops contract and die from this disease, their blood is on 0bama's hands!

And the Republican-controlled Congress will do....

... nothing.

Will the embalmers at Dover AFB be issued HAZMAT suits, or will our dead troops be buried in a ditch in Liberia?

That was my first thought. They better be on the first flight HOME and sent to BETHESDA. Left in Liberia??? HERE THEY GO AGAIN, LEAVING OUR GUYS BEHIND.

Boy am I pissed!!! May I swear like a Marine? No? Ok, I’ll cry instead.

They don’t serve the SOB. they go to protect their families and our country which includes the Constitution. BUT when they get shot at, they shoot back for their brothers next to them. Period.

How come we aren’t hearing about ISIS? That is where they want to go and that is where they should be. Why aren’t the Chinese and India Indian doctors and engineers building these clinics? Their countries would be wiped out if the obola virus got there.

But we can put them on a bus and it’ll be Ok...

Seriously, though: They should just renounce their citizenship and apply for a Visa through U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

They’ll be home in a week and getting 1st-class medical treatment reserved for ‘OTP’ (other-than patriots).

So, he is going to ship ebola laden noncitizens to America to deplete our resources and bankrupt our hospitals while leaving honorable Americans in Liberia to rot.

Is there ANY doubt as to whose side he is on and whom he has a seething hatred for?

Obama and his henchpeople have to be arrested by the military. They have become enemy combatants.
They are so far from having US citizens best interests in mind that all of us are being completely dumb-founded daily. How much more of this will we take? Is there anyone SANE left in Congress, the CIA, the FBI or the military upper eschelon? Or has Obama got them all by the balls through blackmail?
The silence inactivity from Congress is deafening.

Ping.

Check out thread.

In the meanwhile, ... 0hbola will be bringing non-American Ebola victims to the U.S. for treatment.

Yes, India would be in BIG trouble with this...and south of our border would be a disaster.

Unfortunately we’re all in this together...

If I was given orders to ship out to Liberia, I would just not show. I would miss deployment and suffer whatever consequences that followed.
