I don't see hysteria here. And the worry about Ebola has only been needless because nothing has been done about it, not because Ebola isn't killing thousands of my neighbors. I agree that the worry isn't that it will take over the US or Europe, but that isn't what we're talking about.

Boku haram is a PERFECT example of religion getting terribly in the way.

Europeans (and I include Americans here) letting Africans die because they (the Europeans & Americans) don't want to offend them (the Africans) is just plain imbecilic.
