[Iran Press TV] Sierra Leone's vice president has voluntarily quarantined himself after one of his security guards died from Ebola.
Vice President Samuel Sam-Sumana on Sunday decided to put himself in quarantine for 21 days following the death of one of his security personnel last Tuesday.
It is the first time a high-ranking official is quarantined for fear of spreading the epidemic that according to the most recent figures released by the World Health Organization (WHO) has claimed 9,600 lives in the world.

[CHRON] Conservative U.S. politicians banned from traveling to Venezuela by socialist President Nicolas Maduro are taking the restriction as a badge of honor.
Maduro laid out a series of measures against U.S. diplomats and tourists Saturday night, including a promise to limit the size of the embassy here and impose a tourist visa requirement.
Maduro also gave a list of conservative U.S. officials who would be barred from entering Venezuela. He named former President George W. Bush, former Vice President Dick Cheney and several congressmen.
"They can't come to Venezuela because they're terrorists," Maduro said before a crowd that had gathered to protest imperialism. "Out of here, terrorists."
Florida Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen said on Twitter that she was proud to be listed among such "good company." Another Florida Republican, Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart, responded with faux disappointment.
"I've always wanted to travel to a corrupt country that is not a free democracy. And now Castro's lapdog won't let me!" he wrote on Twitter.

[GLOBALRESEARCH.CA] By the way if, as I believe, this is a false flag, I expect it to be a stunning success in the West and a total flop in Russia: by now, Russians already can smell that kind of setup a mile away and after MH-17 everybody was expecting a false flag. So, if anything, it will only increase the hostility of Russians towards the West and rally them around Putin. In the Empire, however, this will be huge, better than Politkovskaya or Litvinenko combined. A "Nemtsov" prize will be created, a Nemtov statue will be placed somewhere (in Warsaw?), the US Congress will pass a "Nemtsov law" and the usual combo package of "democratic hagiography" will be whipped-up.
Clearly Putin had nothing to gain. Rogue US elements have lots to benefit from trying to destabilize Russia. If Putin wanted Nemtsov dead, it's inconceivable he'd order a Mafia-style contract killing. An "unfortunate" plane or car crash would have been more likely. Perhaps cleverly poisoning him the way Obama murdered Chavez and Sharon killed Arafat.
Gunning him down in central Moscow automatically rules out Kremlin involvement. His demise has all the earmarks of a CIA-staged false flag. Expect no evidence whatever surfacing suggesting Putin's involvement.
Note: the Russian word "provocatsiia" is often translated as "provocation" which is not incorrect as long as you are aware that in Russian "provocation" can mean "false flag", as it does in this context. Putin is clearly warning about a false flag "sacrifice".
As for the "liberal" or "democratic" "non-system" opposition it has already announced that it will convert the planned protest into a memorial rally.
“Putin Much Too Smart To Play Into Washington’s Hands” I can tell you one thing, and that is that Putin is much too smart to play into Washington’s hands in this way. Moreover, Nemtsov, although a loud mouth, had no impact on Putin’s 85% approval rating. Nemtsov’s support resided in the Washington-funded NGOs in Russia.
CIA Assassinates Nemtsov?
If the CIA assassinated Nemtsov, they killed their own asset. It remains to be seen if the propaganda gains justify the CIA’s loss of a Putin critic.”
From Bloomberg: Putin’s spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, said by phone that “the president noted that there are all the signs that this was a hit and also an extreme provocation.”
Another False Flag Assassination To Blame On Putin’s Russia As A Pretext For Starting WW3
Clearly, the Anglo-American Axis (AAA)* has shown itself willing to conduct any false flag attack, assassination or other operation — ANYWHERE — in order to foment anger and internal strife toward Putin’s highly regarded Kremlin. The main AAA players — the USA, UK and Israel — are all saddled with leaders who command very little, if any respect at all, from their respective citizenries. On the other hand President Putin commands a level of respect, and even reverence, unheard of in modern Russian history.
Not only does this state of affairs rile the AAA leadership, it compels them to fabricate any plot necessary to bring Putin down. In the case of Nemtsov, they knew that Putin himself would be devastated by such a barbaric and callous act. Putin does not have the character to even consider ordering the assassination of an adversary. He certainly does not behave the way that the AAA leaders routinely do. Such as how the Kiev junta, with American, British and European backing, cruelly shot down the commercial airliner Flight #MH17 over the Ukraine killing nearly 300 passengers … and then tried to blame it on Russia and the Russian-speaking rebels.
Caught: The CIA at it again
Following an extensive and immediate baseless media barrage, it gradually came to light that this was a CIA-orchestrated false-flag event, leading the western media to drop the subject. If the CIA can order their Ukrainian puppets to kill 298 innocent men, women, and children to advance their agenda of world conquest, couldn’t they kill their Russian agent Nemtsov to advance that very same agenda?
Then we have another CIA success story, the so-called Maidan coup of 2014. Everyone knows by now that this was a CIA-sponsored event. We even know the price tag: 5 billion dollars (we may note in passing that CIA fascist coups d’état are subject to inflationary pressures too—in 1953, it only cost $100,000 to overthrow Iranian democracy).
As well, to remove the elected president of Ukraine from power, the CIA had Ukrainian snipers killing their own paid protesters in order to successfully turn Ukraine into a fascist dictatorship—and a thorn in Russia’s side. If they can kill their comrades in Kiev, can’t they likewise kill comrade Nemtsov in Moscow?

He was one of the most charismatic leaders of the “liberal” or “democratic” “non-system” opposition in Russia (please understand that in the Russian context “liberal” and “democratic” means pro-US or even CIA-run, while “non-system” means too small to even get a single deputy in the Duma)
But his mom says Putin killed him because was a danger.
Using the highly successful template of the 'entitlement class' being employed as Federal Civilian Personnel Office (CPO) staffers. Best Practices.... and all of that.

Lest we fergit, 190's CLINTONISM > THIS IS AMERIKA, NOT AMERICA!
Hence, of course, the DemoLeft's declaration of war known as the film "PEARL HARBOR".
The "American Dream" is now the "Amerikan" + "North American/Amerikan Dream".
WE ARE ALL "CO-AMERICANS/CO-AMERIKANS" NOW.
As per Anti-US US-led OWG Globalism, the real issue for US Lawyers per se is whether FOREIGN
"Semi/Quasi-Americans" + "Co-Americans" under H-2 Work Visa are full-fledged Americans" entitled to full Rights-n-Benefits, etc. of same???
ARE DE FACTO AMERICAN/AMERIKAN WORKERS IN MEXICO, CANADA, + GREENLAND DULY ENTITLED TO DO THE SAME IN THOSE "CO-AMERICAN/AMERIKAN" COUNTRIES UNDER THE OWG NAU???
Lithuania and other Baltic States are working to get off Russian Bear Natural Gas. Europe better do the same, though they are notorious can kickers. Lithuania knows only too well the feeling of the Russian Bear Hug. Hat tip: gCaptain
Lithuanian liquefied natural gas (LNG) importer Litgas has signed a non-binding agreement to purchase LNG from the United States' first export terminal, the company said on Saturday.
The Baltic states and Poland are looking to imports from the United States to reduce their dependence on supplies from Russia. Lithuania opened a floating import terminal last year and Poland plans to open another one later in 2015.
A reverse of the old days when we imported coal from Poland, unloading coal and sailors at terminals on the Great Lakes.
U.S. LNG exporters are looking to the small Baltic states and Poland as hopes fade for a boom in Asian demand for cheap North American natural gas.
Why are hopes fading?
North America's first LNG export terminal, Cheniere Energy Inc's Sabine Pass, is expected to send first cargoes by late 2015. "We can begin receiving cargoes as early as 2016 to match demand," Litgas Chief Executive Dominykas Tuckus said.
Litgas was not immediately available to comment on the volumes potentially involved.
Litgas has already signed a deal with Norway's Statoil to buy 0.54 billion cubic metres of natural gas per year via Lithuania's floating LNG import terminal, opened last year. It has a further 16 non-binding agreements with companies supplying about half the world's LNG.
Russia's Gazprom was sole gas supplier to the Baltic states until the end of 2014, and Poland gets about half of its gas from Russia.
The Russians will shortly remind the Baltic states that they have a naval base in Konigsberg Kaliningrad, and why...

[Iran Press TV] The Spanish prime minister has rejected his Greek counterpart's claim that Spain and Portugal have formed "an axis of forces" to topple the government in Athens.
"We are not responsible for the frustration generated by the radical Greek left that promised the Greeks something it couldn't deliver on," Mariano Rajoy said on Sunday.
His remarks came in response to Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras who on Saturday accused Madrid and Lisbon of attempting to sabotage talks for the eurozone extending the Greek bailout program.
"Their plan was and is to wear down, topple or bring our government to unconditional surrender before our work begins to bear fruit and before the Greek example affects other countries," Tsipras said.

That's what the Venezuelans are saying!
And the Soviets, before them. And the Cubans. Chinese. East Germans.
Get the idea?

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
