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]."

What madness.
Obama determines what Americans want, and does the opposite.
Yeah, this is just great for family and friends of those who serve there.
“You sniffle, you get quarantined...in Liberia.” Geeeeze.
I don't know how anyone could stand serving with this POS as CinC.
And O’bozo doesn’t give a sh!t.....
Only the best medical care for our troops afterall.
Active Duty ping.
Another more effective way to desimate our protection from the mass murderers
This is really just the final straw...so Troops can’t come home but no problem for non US citizens who will infect Americans.
This administration just can’t find enough ways to flip all of us off.
Commie Bastards.
Outrageous...let me get this straight. We will take in people form other countries with ebola to treat them but if our military (who by the resident a** in chief orders)gets ebola they will not be treated here??? Please someone tell me I am miss reading this...............
Personally I believe we’re asking for big trouble by sending in thousands of airborne unit combat troops to a country known as Liberia. Which according to some functionary appointed by “Obama The Magnificent Incompetent” are being sent there to help construct infastructure for a series of Ebola health clinics.
Liberia is a country created by former American slaves who’s capital,Monrovia,is named after an American President James Monroe. According to a report I heard from a local conservative talk show host which I could be wrong,(and truly hope so) reported. “The city has only 7 or 9 public toilets, and a mere 26 miles of fresh water piping.”
Right now the country has just gotten through a bitter civil war and seems to be the current epicenter of the Ebola outbreak that btw started after an infestation of caterpillars. I mention that because Sierra Leone where the epidemic originated from had the same experience.
Here is some of the other krap that is going on there;

While it’s obvious we gave this effort by former enslaved American citizens to return to the continent they were taken from meger attention and support following its creation than what should been given.
Under present circumstances we should be circumspective of the assistance we offer. Certainly sending combat units not equipted with the knowledge, training, or backgound to do what is needed. Placing them in harms way in an area where the likelyhood of contracting a deadly disease is pre eminent simply because it suits political symbolism is madness.
THAT is what I’d like to know. Why is ANYONE - at least actual Americans - continuing to serve this SOB???
There was a time when people had a sense of honor - now all the rats care about is their rat party.
Which bring up why would any actual American be so stupid to vote rat??? Hello Georgia and Kentucky, etc.!!!!
the guy actually says “if”.
i would hate to have to knowingly lie for the cic.
it’s “when” not “if”.
and i don’t believe for one second they are going to stay there when they are infected.
Yes you did. But then again, it’s not a surprise considering that people in politics need to argue and dismiss people as idiots, I am not surprised that stupidity results.
Just outrage on top of outrage.
unless they can pass as Liberian, in which case they get to waltz right in.
What are they going to do about their highly contagious corpses? And how will that go with strong military beliefs about “leave no one behind?”
