The jailed doctor who helped the U.S. track down Usama bin Laden was convicted by a tribal court on bogus charges, according to a classified Pakistani government report.

Portions of the voluminous 357-page Abbottobad Commission Report, which has yet to be made public and were obtained exclusively by Fox News, acknowledge Dr. Shakil Afridi’s conviction last year by a government-sponsored Jirga has undermined Pakistan’s credibility. The report calls for Afridi to be given a new trial.

The first shot across the bow of the Secretary of State by the Chicago Machine.

Benghazi was the second.

Hillary quit after the second shot.

Is this really a surprise to anyone who has watched these people over the years?

Yeah, the heck with him - Lord knows we'll never, ever need anyone in another country to risk his neck helping us again, so let this guy get thrown to the wolves.

Yet, like stupid idiots, our country keeps sending Billions of $$ as Bakshish (gift) courtesy of US tax payers. The Donald is so right...our foreign policy is asinine.

Would it be a surprise if 0bama had absolutely nothing to do with the raid on the OBL compound? No. He probably ordered the proper burial of OBL afterwards though. Along with outing and abandoning the doctor too.

But we can let terrorists and drug gangs in. Give them amnesty. Put them on a path to citizenship.

Of course Obama left this man to rot in prison. If he'd been brought over here, the Dr. would have gotten the credit Barry needed for himself. I wouldn't be surprised if Obama even took the reward money.

Right before the bin Laden operation the doctor should’ve said, “I’ll give you the last piece of critical information once my family and I are safely out of Pakistan.

It’s a crime this guy has to suffer because America can’t be trusted

“The report calls for Afridi to be given a new trial.”

Ooh. Well that changes everything. Confidence in America’s willingness to support its friends is fully restored. /s

People forgot already....Hillary had no reason to get out except to cover her own a**.

Her "What difference does it matter now?" aka "Who cares?" said it all.

If you look at the picture released by the white hut he's sitting in the corner seemly pissed off. I believe it's because:
1) His golf game got interrupted.
2) He's mad they got Bin Lauden without telling until it's done deal.
3) He didn't get a change to no go the operation like he did several times before, that's why he looks pouty in the picture.

Maybe if he spoke Spanish his chances would be better.

We are sending a German family back but keeping Aunt Zuni here.

The good doc deserves his $25 million but he didn’t know Jarret and the M B-hood runs the white hut.
