Normally I love a nice conspiracy, even if only in theory but the recent tit for tat between the US and Pakistan is rapidly becoming farcical as a Punch and Judy show. The CIA bribed a Pakistani doctor called Shakil Afridi to stage a fake vaccination camp for children in Abbottabad so as to be able to obtain DNA samples from children living in the walled compound of Bin Laden. Firstly, it is completely unethical and immoral to arrange fake immunisation of children. Parents would be led to believe that their children are immunised against certain diseases while the children remain vulnerable. Secondly, children are innocent and incapable of giving informed consent and to take DNA samples by stealth is abhorrent. This doctor deserves to be in jail and should have his licence cancelled forever. In retaliation the Americans have arrested fellow called Ghulam Nabi Fai for working as an agent of the ISI to spread disinformation on Kashmir in the US. Apparently this fellow was paid millions of dollars to lobby politicians, contribute to their election funds and use the Kashmir issue against India to benefit the Pakistan military rather than Kashmiris themselves. Does the US think that anyone is going to believe that they were ignorant about Fai's activities for decades? India is an open country and Kashmir has always been a tourist destination frequented by foreigners. Is the US claiming that they did not know what was going on in Kashmir? It is the same as saying that Pakistan is suffering from terrorist attacks because 30000 Pakis have been killed by terrorists in the last 5 years. Pakistan is a terrorist state exporting death to the world. So let them die.
