Iraqi media says ISIS militants have contracted Ebola
Mashable ^ | 12-31-2014 | Bryan Reis

Reports that Islamic State militants in Mosul have contracted Ebola swirled though Iraqi media sources on Wednesday. World Health Organization officials said they haven't confirmed the cases, but the organization has reached out to offer assistance.

Three outlets reported that Ebola showed up at a hospital in Mosul, a city 250 miles north of Baghdad that's been under ISIS control since June 2014. The reports, however, have perpetuated mostly in pro-government and Kurdish media.

SNIP---

Citing an unnamed source in a Mosul hospital, Iraq's official pro-government newspaper, al Sabaah, said the disease arrived in Mosul from "terrorists" who came "from several countries" and Africa.

Unless they use them as a reservoir of virus to infect others as part of a new bio-jihad front?

yes, I’m sure that precisely what WHO has in mind. Nukes. Sure thing. Brilliant.

unless you stop to realize that if you just leave them alone, they’ll pretty well all die without any help from us at all.

Ebola patients aren’t exactly ambulatory. Once they’re symptomatic, they’re entirely too busy exploding at both ends and bleeding from every orifice to go running into anyone’s front lines.

especially when the finest medical facility known to ISIS is a hole to sh!t in.

I’m sure that ISIS has already cut off the heads of any doctors who know what they’re doing. It’s the Muslim way.

Sure they’ll die. In western populations after infecting us all.

You asked what I prescribed. Not what WHO did. I told you. Problem?

>> Obama and his minions deeply conflicted about if it is wrong to stop jihadis Isis guys, with ebola, from entering the country.

Conflicted? Since when have Comrade Chairman Obola and his fellow progressive miscreants ever been conflicted about anything that undermines America's ideoligical, financial, spiritual, social, or physical health?

Wait till the selective immunization begins. Then we’ll see what “conflicted” really looks like.

Immunization papers please?

Don't need no weatherman to see which way the Obola wind blows.

WHO’s response was the basis of my reply. It’s how this whole sub thread started.

And no, I don’t have a problem; I’m not the one that said something stupid, and then had to do a 180 and start blathering stupid sh!t about nukes in order to change the subject.

Considering I said nothing stupid either, who are you referring to?

"Citing an unnamed source in a Mosul hospital"

I think we may have stumbled upon a source even less believable than "an unnamed source in the White House".

Anthrax (naturally occurring, not weaponized) I'd believe. Influenza, sure. Even bubonoic plague. But ebola?

"MOAB, baby! Massive Ordinance Air Burst(Mother Of All Bombs). "

The MOAB was tested at Eglin AFB in Florida.
Eglin is the largest military base in the world and when the MOAB was tested there, only those involved in the testing heard it.

Actually, to drive the point home...

“WHO is trying to help ISIS? WTFF?!?’ Ebola ravaging ISIS isn’t a problem, it’s the solution to a problem.” those are your words. Cut and paste.

Now I want you to name three things more dangerous and threatening to human life on earth than

“Radical Jihadists with Ebola loose in the wild”

How about two.

How about one.

How about you admit that your solution isn’t a solution. It’s one serious threat to humanity.

Ebola has a long incubation period, so you`re telling me they can`t: Take a blood sample from one of their dying jihadists, scratch a suicide volunteer with it, then quickly move him via predetermined and established means to the area of operations, there once he`s symptomatic, he`d begin infecting others?

At the very least, wait till he`s symptomatic but still ambulatory, strap a suicide vest onto him and have him blow himself up in some crowded market or public venue?

Ebola plus these freaks, is an extremely bad combination.

dude, rant at someone that gives a damn about your silliness. if you don’t understand how going from curing ISIS of Ebola because its a threat to humanity to nuking the sh!t out of them — and all of the obvious health hazards that involves — then I’m sorry, I just can’t dumb it down any further for you.
