Pakistan 'vaccination' doctor accused of treason

[CHIMO]

A Pakistani doctor accused of helping the CIA to track down Osama bin Laden should be charged with high treason, a Pakistani state commission has recommended.

The finding against Dr Shakeel Afridi, who allegedly ran a fake Hepatitis B vaccination scheme in Abbottabad at the behest of the CIA, is likely to further complicate relations between Pakistan and the US.

Afridi was picked up by Pakistan's Inter-Service Intelligence (ISI) three weeks after the raid on May 2 in which the fugitive al-Qaida leader was killed, and he has been held without access to a lawyer ever since.

1. One man`s informant is another man`s traitor.

so he gets what he asked for, right?

"Without access to a lawyer" is the new standard anyways.
The Obama admin is doing everything to promote this model of justice worldwide. So nothing to complain here.

"CIA vaccination programme" - my ass.

7. A massive bombing of the ISI headquarters and satellite offices

would be better -- just level the buildings and infrastructure and completely cripple the agency.

8. If an American doctor staged a fake vaccine event

to target someone wanted by a Pakistani intelligence agency that's known for stirring up shit in other countries and he did it in Florida, what would be the US government's reaction?
