A senior administration official told Fox News on Thursday that Pakistan exposed Dr. Shakil Afridi, who was taken into custody shortly after U.S. forces killed bin Laden. Afridi was sentenced Wednesday to 33 years in prison.
"If you go back to the first stories about the doctor's alleged affiliation with the U.S., it was clear Pakistani authorities leaked it to the press," the official said.
Another senior U.S. official said "the Pakistanis found Dr. Afridi on their own."

Valerie_Plame House Oversight Committee hearing[edit]
On March 8, 2007, two days after the verdict in the Libby trial, Congressman Henry Waxman, chair of the U.S. House Committee on Government Reform, announced that his committee would ask Plame to testify on March 16, in an effort by his committee to look into "whether White House officials followed appropriate procedures for safeguarding Plame's identity."[57][58]
On March 16, 2007, at these hearings about the disclosure, Waxman read a statement about Plame's CIA career that had been cleared by CIA director Gen. Michael V. Hayden and the CIA, stating that she was undercover and that her employment status with the CIA was classified information prohibited from disclosure under Executive Order 12958.
Subsequent reports in various news accounts focused on the following parts of her testimony:
- "My name and identity were carelessly and recklessly abused by senior government officials in the White House and state department"; this abuse occurred for "purely political reasons."[59]
- After her identity was exposed by officials in the Bush administration, she had to leave the CIA: "I could no longer perform the work for which I had been highly trained."[60]
- She did not select her husband for a CIA fact-finding trip to Niger, but an officer senior to her selected him and told her to ask her husband if he would consider it: "I did not recommend him. I did not suggest him. There was no nepotism involved. I did not have the authority [...]."[60]

In fact, it's a lie. There have been NO OFFICIAL REPORTS ANYWHERE that have debunked Wilson's report or that he provided false information. It's clear to everyone involved that he debunked the yellowcake story, and that the subsequent outing of his wife by Armitage through Novak was an act of revenge and an act done in an effort to continue to lie about Iraq.The "bi-Partisan" committee was so ridiculous that it took over 2 years to get the second part out of it. The co-chairman watered it down to the point where it made no sense at all. No one relies on that piece of garbage to determine what happened. It was a whitewash at best.Valerie Plame was a covert operative period.
