The big noise was from mega media fest blowing ebola into a major economic hit on West Africa to coincide with the US African Summit that has now delivered a big win for US companies and the World Banks primacy on one of the fastest growing continents . Now that the beast has gotten fed at the Summit, let’s see if the pandemic headlines calm down or whether the drumbeats continue to serve the agendas of multiple cartels.

That thought is even more disturbing given what is going on down on the border. The Republicans have a very good reason to be standing firm on the immigration issue – what is happening is not immigration. It is an op.
