Imagine a situation which combines two of the three greatest threats to America into one, our wideopen borders and the Ebola crisis. That is what the Department of Defense has done, and they consider the illegal entry of masses of infected people through our southern border to be a real possibility. The circumstances which would precede such an event seem to be lining up just right.
The DoD predicts the number of Ebola cases worldwide to be 1.4 million by the end of the year, with a 62% mortality rate. We have already seen how the United States is seen across the globe as the best treatment option for those who believe they may have been infected and that they will not hesitate to beat a path to our door.
Obama, Kerry and their obedient talking head officials continue to leave us vulnerable by permitting travel into the United States by anyone who is infected with the disease, as long as they have not yet become symptomatic. They are Ebola time bombs, ticking their way through customs and into American neighborhoods.
That policy is irresponsible and will certainly result in more infections and more fatalities. But what the Defense Department is concerned with has the potential to literally be the end of the United States as we know it. They fear that Ebola will find its way into Central or South America, sparking a flood of illegals crashing our border, fearful of the disease or intent on getting the life-saving treatment that they cannot get in their own country.
On the official DoD news outlet, Marine Corps Gen. John F. Kelly, the commander of U.S. Southern Command is quoted as saying, “The potential spread of Ebola into Central and Southern America is a real possibility.
He added, “By the end of the year, there’s supposed to be 1.4 million people infected with Ebola, with 62 percent of them dying, according to the [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention]. That’s horrific. And there is no way we can keep Ebola [contained] in West Africa.”
He acknowledges that if the disease comes to our hemisphere, the affected nations will not be equipped to deal with it, saying, “So, much like West Africa, it will rage for a period of time.”
Kelly expressed particular concern about the consequences of the disease breaking out in Haiti or Central America. He said, “If the disease gets to countries like Guatemala, Honduras or El Salvador, it will cause a panic and people will flee the region.”
Most alarmingly, General Kelly said, “If it breaks out, it’s literally, ‘Katie bar the door,’ and there will be mass migration into the United States. They will run away from Ebola, or if they suspect they are infected, they will try to get to the United States ...
