I just had a sick thought. What if Barack is hiding his birth certificate because it contains Muhammad in it?

He is of the Omani lineage. That was the Prophet Muhammad’s lineage. Is Barack trying to insinuate he is the Mahdi?

OPINION:

Well, let’s go off topic a minute...

Ahmadinejad — does he think he is the great mahdi?

http://off-topic.internet-haganah.com/archives/000164.html

Hmmm...Probably not, but he’s ready for the mahdi.

...and he’s sure...the mahidi is coming soon.

http://www.thememriblog.org/iran/blog_personal/en/8286.htm

Those in doubt, need to know that Ahmadinejad believes deeply
in his buddy the “hidden imam.”

He wouldn’t be the first...a little history:

Mahdist Revolt
Main article: Mahdist War
Egyptian mismanagement eventually led to a revolt led by religious leader Muhammad ibn Abdalla, the self-proclaimed Mahdi (Guided One), who sought to purify Islam in Sudan. He led a nationalist revolt against Egyptian/British rule culminating in the fall of Khartoum and the death of the British General Charles George Gordon in 1885. The revolt was successful and Egypt and the British abandoned Sudan, and the resulting state was a theocratic Mahdist state.

From ‘The White Nile’ - The Moslem Revolt:

Mohammed Ahmed Ibn el-Sayyid Abdullah, the Mahdi, follows the true tradition of the warrior-priests of Islam. Like a sandstorm in the desert he appears, suddenly and inexplicably out of nowhere, and by some strange process of attraction generates an ever-increasing force as he goes along. Confused accounts were given of his origins: some said he came from a family of boat-builders on the Nile, others that he was the son of a poor religious teacher, others again that he was the descendand of a line of sheikhs. It was generally accepted, however, that he was born in the Dongola province in the North Sudan in 1844 (which would make him 37 years of age at this time), and that quite early in life he had achieved a local reputation for great sanctity and for a gift of oratory that was quite exceptional. His effects, it seemed, were obtained by an extra-ordinary personal magnetism.

“There was a strange splendour in his presence, an overwhelming passion in the torrent of his speech.’

He was a man possessed. Mohammed had promised that one of his descendants would one day appear and reanimate the faith, and Abdullah now declared, with an unshakable conviction, that he himself was that man...

(The Arabization of Africa continues, although the millions displaced in Darfur and starving in camps are mostly converts to islam, they are black and therefor only useful as slaves.)

The history of arabs in Africa is important. To be able to claim an arab bloodline represents power...it’s not a ‘heritage’ Barak Hussein Obama Snr would hide.

The Arabs like Hebrews are a group of people united by a common language, Arabic, and do not necessarily require certain genealogic relationship for its membership, as many mistakenly believe. Despite such a relaxed requirement it is ironic though that Arabs prided themselves on their ancestry and for them Arab was the noblest of nations...

...the concept of Mehdi has evolved to give legitimacy of governance to different political groups of interest for clear political ambitions and has nothing to do with Islam. The Holy Quran and the authentic Prophetic traditions (Bukhari and Muslim) are completely silent on this topic. Therefore, Mahdi related traditions, which I proved are weak should be approached with caution. An interesting parallel with Jewish eschatology is obvious.
