That poor doctor has just handed an excuse to the people opposed to the vaccinations. Now Taliban would quote this incident and this poor doctor every time they execute the health workers and doctors.
Just like Balochistan, the Khyber and FATA has the highest incidents of violence against the people belonging to the health profession. The Mullah Fazlullah of Sawat and his father in law Mullah Sufi spearheaded the campaign against the polio and MMR vaccinations and actively encouraged the violence and murder of the health professionals including men and women. There are already many polio cases reported in Chaman (Balochistan) and in Khyber, no thanks to this scoundrel, many children will loose out the vaccinations.
Your poor Doctor not only sold his country and betrayed his own people but also disgraced his profession too.
Nowhere in the world any self respecting journalist or a doctor for that matter takes sides in the conflict specially a foreign covert entity.
Not only the local health professionals but the foreigners relating to WHO and other NGOs are at risk and will be seen with even more suspicion by already paranoid, frustrated and suspicious population of this part of the world.
When you are done crying for this poor man who helped the Americans and saved the world from disaster do save few tears for the children who will miss the vaccinations trust me, they have no role or say in this whle Haqanni or AQ network so do give that a thought for a moment
You can carry on with your rant as usual
thanks
First, for the record, yes, it was
probably wrong to use the vaccination drive to gather intelligence about OBL... BUT.. IMO if there are times where Ends justify the Means, this was probably one of them..
For example, will you also vote against a Spec ops guy going in as a medic in a hijacked plane to rescue the hostages?? After all, this may result in future hijackers not allowing a medic to come in to treat an ill hostage..
And while you accuse and abuse this scoundrel, save some of your harshness for people in Pakistan who allowed for the world's biggest terrorist to live in relative luxury less than a mile away from the biggest Military academy of Pakistan. But hey, they are unseen and hidden, so why not take the ire and embarrassment of getting caught while hosting OBL in Pakistan on the next most convenient target..
You say that this doctor took sides in a conflict and sold out his nation.. ?? Which conflict ?? USA vs terrorists?? Are terrorists now a designated nation and does war with them follow the rules of Geneva convention.. C'mon man, get real.. Are Doctors and health care professionals not allowed to help Law enforcement agencies in capturing or killing criminals?? So how was this any different..
And how does selling out his nation come into picture.. Did he sell any state secrets of Pakistan to USA?? (I hope that was not the case).. Agreed that he shouldnt have worked for a foreign intelligence agency, but hand on heart, is that the problem or is it that because of his acts, people found out that OBL was living in Pakistan..?? If after getting this intel from this doctor, had CIA come to ISI and had taken OBL out in a joint operation with medals galore in ISI, then do you think this doctor would have met the same fate as today?? Both you and I know the answer, whether you admit it or not..
Also when you are done crying for the kids who wont get vaccinations as now their parents and the govt of Pakistan has a ready excuse of this instance, do save some tears for all the future victims of terror killings in and out side of Pakistan which wont get stopped now since no one in their right mind in Pakistan (at least) will come forward to help the folks fighting against terrorism fearing the same fate as this doctor..
