The pakistani doctor who helped Obama find Usama bin laden has been in jail and is charged with treason but we still give Pakistan foreign aid because Pakistan is considered an our friend. Pakistani harbored bin Laden and then charges the doctor with treason, does that sound like a friend to the U.S.

The doctor helped but is now left in jail for 33 years and is regularly tortured repeatedly by prison security. His bank accounts have been confiscated and the family can't get money. They are also turned away when they try to visit the doctor. Obama got what he wants but turns his back on the people who help him. Is this how we treat people that help us?

Whoever in the US gave up the identity or information that helped identify the Dr. should be in jail for treason. Maybe we could farm out his incarceration to Mexico or somewhere else with conditions comparable to a Pakistani jail.

Hell, we don't even help our own when they're in foreign prisons.

Don't you believe that other people in a position to help the U.S. are not aware of this. I would not blame them for not wanting to help the U.S. This doctor helped us locate Bin Laden and the seals got him. Obama use it as part of his re-election campaign. Obama is not backing our friends, the people who help us.

Obviously Liberals and Democrats don't believe in helping the people who help us.

It would make you think twice.
