This is still very much a mystery. Why would any one want to visit Pakistan? Isn't this incredibly strange? Is it un PC to ask this question? No one vacations in Pakistan! Why?
He went there for a wild spring break.....
If you were a Muslim....typically your one big ‘trip’ in life would be to Mecca. Oddly, from the 1995 and 2006 books he wrote....neither mention this three-week trip to Pakistan. He tells a lot of his past, but didn’t really speak a single note on this one significant trip.
His ‘staff’ have generally spoken of the trip as being a stop-over while going to visit his mother in Indonesia...visiting friends. No one has ever asked about the friends...which you’d assume they have to be from Occidental College. The bulk of Pakistani Muslims are Sunnis, so his buddies are likely Sunnis. The curious question to ask is how close is he to the two old college buddies today, and what do they do for a living.
