The US is using the Ebola outbreak as a smokescreen to go on with its plans
for extracting natural gas and oil from West Africa, an investigative
journalist says.


The Ebola “hype is to distract everyone from what is actually happening” in
West Africa, Susanne Posel, chief editor of Occupy Corporatism, told Press
TV on Thursday, Press TV
<http://www.presstv.com/detail/2014/10/24/383429/us-oil-companies-playing-eb
ola-card/> reported.

“What is actually happening in Liberia is they [the US] found out they have
natural gas and petrol a hundred years worth or more. They want to extract
it and they don’t want anyone to give them any problems,” she noted.

She made the remarks as the Obama administration is deploying thousands of
troops to West Africa to help the countries hit by the deadly epidemic
control the viral disease.

Posel said that the US mainstream media are hyping up the Ebola epidemic
because, “It makes a hell of a lot of sense to completely confuse people
while you are sending troops in to secure an area that a petrol company
[ExxonMobil] is going to extract natural gas and oil.”

The 4000-strong US force deploying to Liberia--one of the three epicenters
of the Ebola outbreak-- will be joined by hundreds of British troops in a
mission that Washington says is aimed at building medical centers and
training healthcare workers.

“I’m really concerned about the Liberians because I think this is not
exactly what is happening to them,” Posel said.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank (WB) have proposed
plans to secure the extraction of natural gas and oil in the Ebola-hit
regions.

"There is a country that has natural resources that the IMF, World Bank, the
United States and the UK want control over," Posel said, referring to
Liberia.

The recent Ebola outbreak started in late 2013 in Guinea and rapidly spread
to two more West African countries, Sierra Leon and Liberia.

With no proven treatment and no vaccine, the Ebola epidemic could affect
5,000 to 10,000 new people per week, according to the World Health
Organization (WHO).
