Abstract :

This study sought to examine the reasons the United States (US) makes the ebola virus became pandemic in West Africa as a priority of US national security. This research is based on facts that show that the US lowered its troops to 3,000 troops to Liberia as one form of response from the outbreak of the Ebola virus. In addition, countries in the West African region in particular Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia as countries affected by the ebola geopolitically located in the Sahel region highly vulnerable to conflict likely to be used by terrorist groups as a bioterrorism development through deployment ebola. Through linkages framework of national security and foreign policy; pandemic disease as a form of new security threats; US views inside look at the issue of terrorism as well as the urgency for the US ebola virus, this study will explain the reasons behind the US decision in making the ebola virus as a national security priority. By using literature and data analysis, the conclusions obtained in an explanatory study support the hypothesis that the US has ebola as a national security priority for the United States wants to prevent the use of ebola virus for bioterrorism events. This is confirmed by the adoption of the US strategy of selective engagement through the use of the countries in West Africa as an instrument for anticipating such bioterrorism.
