thanks for that, now maybe you should try to dig a little deeper whyRisking the lives of Pakistani children at the behest of CIA he should be hanged....publicly that is
@Solomon2 This is very tricky ground. Two things come to my mind that I think are pertinent to the Dr. Shakeel Afridi case.
1. He colluded with a spy agency of a foreign power - that it was a ally does not change the substance of the matter. UK and USA are as close as can be but I doubt I could become a secret 'operative' of CIA without it being looked down in badly by the authorities in UK. In particular without relevant authorization from UK agencies and knowledge of British government.
2. He colluded in a manner that was extremely damaging to the polio campaign. This is extremely difficult to defend as being a doctor and Pakistani he should have known that using polio as a mask would lead to untold damage to that campaign and thousands of young innocents would suffer as he would know that there would be backlash from the conservatives and extremists. He had as a doctor moral duty to not bring the polio campaign into disrepute which is what exactly what happened. This in my opinion is inexcusable given that he did what he did for monetery gain.
This said however we must always look at the backdrop. No event happens in isolation. If we take a step back and look at the bigger picture the Dr. Afridi's infamous act shrinks and far bigger ugliness takes it's place. Some big questions appear.
1. How did OBL manage to get into Pakistan?
2. How did OBL manage to hide in Pakistan for so long?
These questions expose the gross failure of Pakistani security apparatus or even raise the spectre of complicity. If we ignore the latter the question of gross failure still subsists. In any balance country heads would roll. You can't have such gross failure and then go on as if nothing happened. The big question is whose failure was it that led to Pakistan's international humiliation? Pakistan at worse looked complicit or at best incompetent. Who failed here? Interior minister? ISI chief? Police chief? Chief of staff? Maybe the Prime Minister? All or some of these guy's should have lost their jobs and searching questions should have been asked of all organs of the Pakistani stat not e that failed so miserably. Their failure are far more bigger 'crimes' then what Dr.Afridi did.
However there is zero chance that those who were at helm of the Pakistani state will face accountability. Instead all the blame has been shifted over to Dr. Afridi and thus he has been used as a scapegoat. As I said right at the start, he did wrong but lesser so than those at the top. But he became the fall guy for their failures.
All the public anger has been deflected on to Dr.Afridi whilst the rest got to keep their jobs, pensions and walk away with their reputations intact. The entire OBL fiasco has been neatly dumped on the doctor overlooking the fact that even if there had been no Dr.Afridi the OBL affair still would have exploded inside Pakistan.
I dont dig deeper for morons. If he is in for aiding Lashkar-e-Islam than so be it, either way he is where he deserves. You beating around the bush isnt going to change anything.thanks for that, now maybe you should try to dig a little deeper why
"Dr Afridi was sentenced to 33 years in prison for aiding banned militant group Lashkar-e-Islam and not for his links to the CIA,"

Please explain the 1st highlighted part? Where did i resort to personal insults?Personal insults, that's new. nevertheless, your state did not charge him for any links to CIA, he was charged to be aiding lashkar-e-islam - TTP offshoot, surprisingly Taliban faction named Jamaatul Ahrar claimed responsibility for murder of his lawyer...
The bottom line is your government doesn't even have the courage to indict him for the "treason" not much can be expected from it's raymond davis conduct to begin with.
I don't care if you indict him for treason or for stealing neighbors chickens, he is a citizen of your country who played a crucial role in eliminating a terrorist who was hiding in your garrison town, with your intel agencies being complicit in aiding him as your own ally did not trust you with the information. You find his act treasonous but hail the ones who sheltered OBL as heroes . That remains your duplicity, and the primary reason that your government didn't have the spine to indict him for aiding CIA...Please explain the 1st highlighted part?

As for the 2nd part so you agree that he should be indicted for treason never the less i agree about the courage part.
If you dont care about anything than why bother going round in circles and trying to defend a man who you claim to really dont care about? Isnt this duplicity on your part? If our intel agencies were complicit than what stopped the americans from declaring ISI a terror sponsoring agency and slapping restrictions on it? Heck what stopped the US from slapping sanctions on Pakistan and putting it on the list of terror sponsoring country? Since none of the above happened this means US does not see Pakistan the way India and Indians would like too and the way you people throw random tantrums about sheltering OBL.I don't care if you indict him for treason or for stealing neighbors chickens, he is a citizen of your country who played a crucial role in eliminating a terrorist who was hiding in your garrison town, with your intel agencies being complicit in aiding him as your own ally did not trust you with the information.

And I really don't care what you do with Dr, kill him, hang him skin him alive, If your justice system was ok with blood money for Raymond davis, I am sure some arrangement can be made for his release too.
I apologize for the personal remarks sentence, I thought you were implying the adjective to me, after reading your post again, i realized you referred to the dr as moron, truly sorry about that.If you dont care about anything than why bother going round in circles and trying to defend a man who you claim to really dont care about?

And i am still waiting for the reply on "personal insult" that you accused me for laying out?
