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

• The Obama administration said late Monday night that the U.S. military will set up a command post in Monrovia, Liberia, the Ebola outbreak’s epicenter
• ‘This effort … will involve an estimated 3,000 U.S. forces,’ according to the White House
• Pentagon official says military will ‘be the lead dog, and that will make a lot of people nervous. … No one wants U.S. personnel enforcing someone else’s martial law if things go south and the entire region is at risk’
• U.S. Africa Command warns servicemen and women: ‘Avoid nonessential travel to Sierra Leone, Guinea, and Liberia’
• Pentagon is drawing flak for sending 25-bed ‘field-deployable hospital’ that is meant to treat health care workers, not civilian victims
• The U.S. president will travel to the CDC in Atlanta on Tuesday for a briefing about his government’s efforts to stem the tide overseas  

 

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.

What do you think about us sending our military into these death zones? Do you think that our military should be used to destroy ISIS instead? Or to secure our borders? And what if these Military members get infected? Will they have to wait 10 years to get treatment because the VA is so screwed up? Personally I feel we have enough problems here on U.S. soil to deal with… Let us know!
