It's like I didn't write anything. Why should readers think your analyses remain credible when you've demonstrated such a lack of self-honesty?
No, I acknowledged what your wrote, and pointed out what it actually said in the article that your pointed me towards.
In fact, here was your entire quote
...A senior U.S. official with knowledge of the immunization program defends it. “The vaccination efforts were both limited and, more importantly, real,” he says. “They were conducted by genuine medical professionals. The idea that these were in any way fake is simply mistaken. Many Pakistani children received vaccinations, and if the effort had not been interrupted by the arrest of the doctor, they would have been fully immunized.”
Or are you pointing out about the Newsweek article?
The program was a success, Mamraiz recalls—except for one thing: the workers had only enough vaccine to immunize the few neighborhoods Afridi specified. Many locals were disappointed. “Everybody in town was eager to be vaccinated,” says Mamraiz.
Which means that the vaccination program wasn't serious to even begin with.
How about the Al-Jazeera report?
According to the leaked documents (I went through the relevant section -Pages 109-122-), he was requested by a person named "Kate" to expand the program to Muzzufarabad, Bagh and Abbotabad (Page 112), he replied that he had no experience in Azad Kashmir, so he volunteered to go for the program in Abbotabad, which raises the question,
why wasn't he given enough vaccines to cover the entire area? Why only a few neighborhoods. You can't say government incompetence, he supposedly was working for Save the Children, a foreign NGO, along with USAID(110), and if USAID is involved, he should have been given enough money for such an operation, as
the Americans were financing the entire project. Apparently, the campaign's cost was a little over
Rs. 5 million, which is around $50,000 for 3 drops for a group of women and children(Page 114). There is a whole lot more I can point out to, like how Afridi was receiving
cash payments directly to his personal bank account, instead of checks through the department he was working in (which apparently had no involvement in this entire program); Or how about the fact that "Kate" had him stand outside the OBL compound with a sat radio on for no apparent reason. Another indication the program was fake is that every time to went to meet this Kate person,
he was always taken to a warehouse, in a car with tinted windows. If he didn't have any suspicions about his colleagues before, he should have now.
So yeah, like I said,
the vaccines may have been real, but the program was fake. Afridi had to at least be suspicious about the program's real goals, even if he didn't want to admit it. Whether or not he was complacent is another story altogether, but you cannot deny that the program's aim was not to immunize anyone, that was just a symptom of the entire operation. It was a means to an end, and was only used to locate OBL, nothing more. Apparently, he didn't finish "phase one", he just completed the campaign in a few areas that he was brought to (so I don't know where you even got this idea of a "phase one" being completed).
You want to talk about self honesty, how about you try it for yourself for a change, and read the sources you give, instead of trying to twist their meaning or the evidence presented by them.
