^ Faith in the government that has done what exactly for it’s people? Ah, yes. A whole lot of nothing!

But of course we must protect the sovereignty of the nation and the national interests of the nation, at least as it appears to outsiders, while the democratic and judicial systems fall to pieces for the people who live within.

I wonder how people measure what’s right? Was capturing Osama Bin Laden the right thing? Is the bruised pride of Pakistan more important than the end goal? Or should this doctor have notified ISI so it could negotiate arms/cash or other benefits for cooperating in the capture of Osama?

If Dr. Afridi can keep his head high when he answers to Allah on the day of Judgment - then he has done nothing wrong. That is MY measure of right versus wrong.ng

Just because the govt is incompetent, inept and corrupt that does not give us the right to betray our nation. Whether he can keep his head high on the day of Judgement only Allah knows but he is being judged by the court of law in the country he has allegedly betrayed. It is not only a case of bruised ego or pride, it is also a case of loyalty to your own country and people.
