Monrovia - Six U.S. military planes arrived in the Ebola hot zone Thursday with more Marines, as West Africa's leaders pleaded for the world's help in dealing with "a tragedy unforeseen in modern times."
"Our people are dying," Sierra Leone President Ernest Bai Koroma lamented by videoconference at a World Bank meeting in Washington. He said other countries are not responding fast enough while children are orphaned and infected doctors and nurses are lost to the disease.
Alpha Conde of Guinea said the region's countries are in "a very fragile situation."
"This disease is today an international threat and deserves an international response," he said, speaking through a translator.

I think I’m with you. I’d probably be AWOL. Our military should not be used for this.
It's a shame they weren't loaded with congress critters on junkets.
the bodies will never come back home
God protect them.
I think this whole Ebola thing is all a diversion from ISIS BEING ALLOWED TO RAPE AND PILLAGE MOST OF THE MIDDLE EAST UNDER OBAMA’S WATCH. This is why Eboma won’t ban flights from West African countries.. He wants a few more infected Americans to keep ISIS from stealing the headlines.
AWOL or Deserter? NO PROBLEM! President Eboma would probably trade 5 Taliban commanders for you!
That’s my question...where the he##/who are the other “powers”/countries helping “on the ground”?

Are they doing ANYTHING to help themselves?
and guess what our boys are going to be doing - at least some of them?
TESTING BLOOD from possible ebola infected people.
No danger there! and you can bet your bippy that even if no soldier gets sick - they WON”T be given 21 days quarantine before coming home. (Although the odds of 4,000 and counting soldiers coming home with not ONE infected is astronomical.)
If ‘obolas’’s plan - in line with the goals of the DE-population gang - is to spread this throughout our country - using the military, whom he hates, then you gotta admit, this is brilliant - tho’ the most diabolic in the history of man kind.
Add to that the perfect excuse for Martial Law - they get a two-er...’Not letting a crisis go to waste’ on steroids.” One could start to wonder if the outbreak wasn’t deliberately started.
WE are seeing evil at a level not since the height of the Reich. Frightening as that is, it’s even worse because they have a lot more available than the despot of WW11 did.
Go to the poorest place you know, near where you live.
Now imagine that place without electricity. And without plumbing. And without schools that are worth a damn. And now imagine them worshiping some dirt God.
Now ask your question again.
And why do they live like that? Because their leaders don’t take responsibility. They aren’t asking us to train their people to take care of themselves, they’re asking us to do it for them. I’d much rather those troops had been on our border this summer, keeping the US safe from invasion.
May God have mercy on the souls of this evil administration and those who have brought on the decline of this great nation as most of us just sit back and watch not knowing what else to do. God Bless our military as they are sent into harm’s way.
Probably not, but it’s what “we” got.
They are not us. If you expect them to have the ability to take care of themselves, you will be disappointed.
