- A patient with
Ebola-like symptoms is being treated at a hospital in
Washington, D.C. The patient had recently been to Nigeria. An NBC
News freelance cameraman who has been diagnosed with Ebola is being
flown back to the United States for treatment. More U.S. troops
are
heading to West Africa to shoot Ebola in the face. - Violent scuffles have broken out in the
Hong Kong pro-democracy protests. Residents are attempting to
forcefully dislodge protesters from the streets. - A federal judge has ordered the release of videotapes showing a
Syrian detainee at Guantanamo Bay being force-fed. - Police have arrested more
protesters in Ferguson, Missouri, prompting more complaints and
concerns. Guess that public relations seminar didn’t help
much. - Vice President Joe Biden is being thin-skinned on President
Barack Obama’s behalf, complaining about books by former officials
like Hillary Clinton, Leon Panetta and Robert Gates that
offer critiques of the administration’s decisions. - Oh, hey, we’re still doing stuff in Syria. Moderate rebels (who
are the people we are supposedly helping) are complaining that
U.S.-led air strikes are helping President Bashar al-Assad stay
entrenched. Welcome to world politics, guys. - This afternoon, ISIS released a video that appears to show the
beheading of British hostage Alan Henning.
