Is Obama a War Criminal?

[Yurt]

Amid a deadly backlash again vaccinations and a resurgence of polio in Pakistan, the White House has promised that the CIA will never again use an immunization campaign as a tool of spycraft.

“I wanted to inform you that the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) directed in August 2013 that the agency make no operational use of vaccination programs, which includes vaccination workers,” President Obama’s top counterterrorism and homeland security advisor, Lisa Monaco, wrote to deans of 12 schools of public health. Yahoo News obtained a copy of the May 16 letter.

“Similarly, the Agency will not seek to obtain or exploit DNA or other genetic material acquired through such programs,” Monaco wrote. “This CIA policy applies worldwide and to U.S. and non-U.S. persons alike.”

The Central Intelligence Agency had enlisted a Pakistani doctor, Shakil Afridi, to collect intelligence under the guise of an immunization effort in the city of Abbottabad as part of planning for the high-risk May 2011 raid on Osama bin Laden’s compound there.

The agency aimed to confirm intelligence that bin Laden was at the compound by comparing DNA obtained from children living there to a sample from the fugitive al-Qaida chief’s late sister, the Guardian newspaper reported in July 2011.

After bin Laden backlash, CIA promises: No more vaccination campaigns for spying

or is this just good intelligence?

It is what it is. The dark lords of war, like the CIA, don't follow rules.

I wouldn't classify a fraidy cat as a war criminal

Well, George W Bush is a war criminal in some countries and "O" is kinda a mirror image of "W", so why not?

The CIA needs to do whatever is needed to protect the US, its allies and partners.

Yes he is...and he's worse than that...He took out dictator leaders of countries and then left the people there to defend themselves from the wolves who swept in to take over

he not just a criminal ..he's a destroyer of countries and people lives including our own

People need to understand that the real world is dangerous and dirty.

The CIA goes to those dark parts of the world to make sure evil doesn't end up in the US (see 9-11).

If the CIA needs to kill or torture some bad people, then so be it.

Israel has been killing Iranian scientists trying to build nuclear weapons to destroy Israel. Hmmmm, kill 1 Iranian to save an entire country....

NO!!! JUST CLUELESS!!!! THE worst president in USA history and had done damage that cannot be repared!!!

I would say that this sounds pretty tame in comparison to some things the CIA has done.

What makes Obama a war criminal is the drone program. He should be on trial now for the killing of 4 Americans without due process. But a complicit press and a nation that gives little concern to brown skinned people means he will never see justice.

If Bush had used drones to kill and kill US Citizens without due process, the Left can assure us that he would get the same treatment. Right?

He is not a war criminal in any country.
Obama is like the idiot brother of Bush in some ways, like the evil twin in others.

It's hard criticizing Obabble...it's like dissing a retard.

In my mind, Obama's use of Drones is his only redeeming quality.

If anything, he's a Whore Lord.

Drr - 9/11 happened because of America's messing around.
As for Israel murdering people, why do you think so many people hate Israel?

Obama's intent was to destroy America; he ran on fundamental change! He has undermined the good things, and fostered the bad. The man is evil which transcends criminality!

That's right. Because of this hack president we've all lost tens of thousand of dollars -- so far -- that we'll never get back. Even those who are oblivious to that.
