A US military aircraft which landed at Ramstein Air Base in Germany after a circuit of Senegal, Mali, Chad, Tunisia and Sicily was found to have a dead African child in the landing gear from one of those places, I’m guessing. From Reuters<\/a>;<\/p>\n

“At this point, it is unknown where or when the deceased entered the landing gear wheel well,” Kirby said, describing the apparent stow-away as “an adolescent black male, possibly of African origin.”<\/p>\n

As concerns swell over an outbreak of the deadly Ebola disease in several African countries, the military also confirmed that the body was tested for communicable diseases. Those tests came up negative.<\/p>\n

“The cause of death, as well as the other circumstances surrounding this incident, remains under investigation,” Kirby said, adding the body had been taken to a German facility for an autopsy.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Two Americans have been found to be infected with Ebola in Africa<\/a>. A Liberian man died of Ebola while he was on a flight<\/a>. So, you know, aside from the terrorist threat due to lax security in these African airports, but sending Ebola-infected victims on flights to Europe is right out of Tom Clancy novels.<\/p>\n

“The aircraft is a rugged aircraft designed to operate in austere locations. It shouldn’t come as a surprise to anybody that security at some of these fields is not going to be at the same level,” Kirby said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, well, someone should have noticed a small boy running across the airfield and climbing into the landing gear.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
