recently new detail to confirm my sense

Pakistan moves closer to releasing imprisoned doctor

Pakistan moved closer to releasing an imprisoned doctor who had helped the CIA track Bin Laden after the country’s spy chief flew to the US to try to rescue intelligence ties between Washington and Islamabad, the Guardian reported.

The ISI chief, Lt-Gen Ahmed Shuja Pasha, flew to Washington on Wednesday to seek a patch up in relationship.


The official position towards Dr Shakil Afridi, the subject of weeks of negotiations between the countries, seemed to have softened as a senior Pakistani official said that he may not have known he was working for the CIA.

“If it is confirmed that [Afridi] did not deal with Americans and didn’t know he was working for the CIA, he didn’t break any laws,” the official said.

“He also did not spy on Pakistan or violate the official secrets act. So there may be no reason to charge him,” the official added.



Probably cover-up, pathetic! It is US want to release him, why is that? Raymond Davis, Shamsi Air Base, and now Dr.Afridi.

Recent reports of the CIA having used a local Doctor and a fake nurse to obtain DNA of OBL from the house in Abbottabad has threatened the real vaccination drive for Polio Eradication in the remote areas in Pakistan. Pakistan is currently the only country in the world where Polio cases have been detected primarily in the KP and some in Karachi (due to migrants from KP areas). These people who are predominantly illiterate generally miss out on the massively conducted polio eradication campaigns where polio drops are administered to small children all over Pakistan.

Unfortunately and now due to CIA's irresponsible approach this Polio Drive is now seriously threatened in these areas as the locals will use this incident to strengthen the beliefs that this drive is actually a fake promotion administered by the CIA to obtain DNA's from the locals and perhaps to make them impotent in some way.

UNICEF, Bill Gates and Rotary International that are the three chief organization and investors in the Polio Eradication Campaign have expressed serious concerns over CIA's stupidity that will now jeopardize the lives of thousands of children in Pakistan as their parents will out rightly refuse to have these drops administered.

:disagree: :disagree:

Wow. Now impotency will be blamed on the Americans. "Dam them. They slipped something into my tea!"

The answer isn't hard to implement. Children go to school, correct? And oral polio vaccine can be administered by anybody. Line the children up and place a drop on each tongue.

Polio (like smallpox) is a ridiculously simple disease to prevent. And hopefully polio will one day be eradicated from humanity like smallpox. But it requires an effective organization to make it work.

sorry i dont understand your point.....even if they are collecting DNA how does it effect polio vaccination...?

It may have had NOTHING to do with Polio or any US govt drive there.
Probably OBL's wives or kids visited the guy or one of his colleagues and he blew the whistle on them.
In any case, we are all speculating here.

Why not? The dropper can be used to scrape the buccal mucosa for an excellent sample the same time drops are delivered. A new dropper per baby, and everything can be tracked.

The question was "will actual polio vaccination projects be derailed because of suspicion over DNA collection?"

And my response was "If Pakistan wants to vaccinate kids for Polio, it is very, very easy to do. DNA has nothing to do with it."

americans israelis are known for making the vaccination first and then spreading the disease so that they can sell the vaccination and medicine later on to make money

aids was produced by israelis and rothchild family

Brilliant analysis!!

Dr. Orin Levine, executive director of the International Vaccine Access Center and an associate professor of international health at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, and Laurie Garrett, a senior fellow for global health at the Council on Foreign Relations and the author of “Betrayal of Trust: The Collapse of Global Public Health”, published an op-ed (The fallout from the CIA’s vaccination ploy in Pakistan - The Washington Post) where they explained the reckless attitude of CIA in faking an immunization program in Pakistan.

Here are excerpts:

“The CIA’s plot — recruiting a Pakistani doctor to distribute hepatitis vaccines in Abbottabad this spring — destroyed credibility that wasn’t its to erode. It was the very trust that communities worldwide have in immunization programs that made vaccinations an appealing ruse. But intelligence officials imprudently burned bridges that took years for health workers to build.”

“… the CIA’s actions may have jeopardized the global polio eradication program, which has saved thousands of lives and in which billions of dollars have been invested. Americans could one day be at risk again from re-imported polio.”

“Complicating matters is the fact that Pakistan recently dissolved its Ministry of Health, which has left international programs to negotiate directly with local leaders. Many such leaders may be inclined to distrust doctors or to believe that vaccination programs are CIA ploys designed to hurt their communities.”

“In Afghanistan, where colleagues of ours are helping to rebuild the national health system, locals often link trust in health services with security — in other words, they trust clinics because they believe they are safe places. But health workers there and in Pakistan may now be suspect or seen as spies. People throughout the region may reject vaccines out of politically derived fear.”

“Obama and leaders in Congress should acknowledge the damage to global health efforts and commit to repairing the trust. They should begin where the need is most urgent: Pakistan. They should make clear to regional leaders that despite cuts in foreign aid and U.S. support for the Pakistani military, Americans will not walk away from their region’s poor, their needy children, or commitments to stopping the spread of deadly diseases.”
