What are those attacks initiating from a .mil address south of Ghana?
And why are they mostly attacking the US?!

 Today, we'd also like to announce the availability of a completely new and
updated version of the Norse Live Attack Map. When we posted our first map
back in late 2012, we did not really think much about it to be honest. Norse
CTO Tommy Stiansen created it on a whim one weekend using mostly open source
code, and attack maps are not necessarily a new concept. Like a lot of
things, it was created out of a need for a quick and easy way for people to
visualize the global and live nature of Norse's threat intelligence
platform. While the activity on the map is just a small subset (less than
1%) of the total attack traffic flowing into the Norse platform at any point
in time, map visualizations can be a powerful way to communicate time-based
geographic data sets.

Rather than this being a secretive US military base in the Gulf of Guinea,
it is in fact a random location on the equator that Norse has selected to
represent cyber-attacks committed by and against the American government,
where location data is unavailable.

Its probably the mythical zero island that infests geospatial
databases.

Not so much chosen, as a default initialised geospatial coordinate.
