unanswered questions about Barack Obama’s three-week visit to Pakistan 27 years ago continue to cause unease in some quarters, but his campaign has revealed few details.

Why should they change their MO now. They always reveal "Few details" about The Past of The One.

It's probably racist to ask for details anyway, and really only bitter clingers would be interested in them.

Word of the visit surprised observers.

Not FReepers, we've known about it for ages. We'd like to know what country's passport he traveled on.

Obama: “I like to talk to people with different points of view.”

“why and how an American college student would have visited Pakistan at that time and what he would have done there.”

OK, maybe they planned to insert a mole into the government by grooming BO for high office?

We will know if he chooses to be sworn in on a Koran.

The 1981 visit took place after Obama left Occidental College in Los Angeles.

Not to change the subject, but what do you want to bet there was at least one college professor at Occidental who was a former member of the Weather Underground?

I, too, wonder about the nature of this visit and the fact that Obama would not freely, openly disclose the details of such a trip without prodding.

This was, as the author states, not a good time for Americans to be gallivanting around Asia visiting the families of college roommates. I feel certain there was a more compelling reason for this visit—one Obama isn't sharing. (Now, if Obama were a Muslim, his reason for the visit would be much clearer.)

Obama could have had dinner with Osama and planned the destruction of America, and his supporters would still not have cared even if it were to cost them their lives.

It’s gonna take years to unwind all the stuff this guy has done, people he’s associated with, deals he’s made, crazy ideas he’s held, plans he has for our destruction, etc.

Hopefully as it happens he’ll be back to being a “backbencher” in the Senate again and we’ll be saying “Thank God he didn’t get elected.”

Arrested Men's Shaved Bodies Drew Suspicion of the F.B.I. 10/26/2001

When two Indian men were arrested in Texas the day after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, the F.B.I. found that both had shaved most of the hair on their bodies. The Federal Bureau of Investigations interpreted the closely cut hair, and otherwise shaven bodies, as a possible sign that the men, Ayub Ali Khan and Mohammed Jaweed Azmath, might have been ready to die in a similar attack, and were "prepared to meet Allah," one bureau official said.

This created suspicions, still unconfirmed, that the men, who carried box cutters and $5,500 in cash, might have been part of a failed hijacking team, officials said. The F.B.I.'s concerns about Mr. Khan and Mr. Azmath, who had flown out of Newark on the morning of the hijackings, grew after agents recovered letters instructing some of the suspected hijackers to "shave excess hair from the body" as they prepared for the suicide missions, the officials said.

2 Found With Box Cutters Remain Silent Suspects

"Having visited Pakistan, Obama said, he knew the difference between Sunni and Shia Islam before he became a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee."

I think that having been muslim might be an even more important reason.
