The following information was extrapolated and formulated from Mitchell Langbert's Blog for November 18.
Communsim from day 1
It is reported that Obama's grandparents were members of the CPUSA communist party. Also his mother Ann Dunham. Obama's mentor Frank Marshall Davis was a big time player in the CPUSA in Chicago before leaving for Hawaii to live. Obama ends up where? Chicago. Obama immediately joined the NEW PARTY when he arrived and they helped him get elected to the Illinois senate.
Who died and when?
Ann Dunham's father seemingly never died and married another woman. Ann seemingly never died and is alive and well to this day. Did Obama's grandmother really die recently?
Keep in mind there were no funerals, just memorial services for each person. Also, there is no record of a Stanley Ann Dunham having been treated and dying in a Cancer Institute in Hawaii that Obama has made claim to. They have no record of her having died or even being there at all.
What we're told
- November 7, 1995, Stanley Ann (Dunham-Obama) Soetoro allegedly died of “ovarian cancer” at age “56.” Her body was cremated; there was no funeral. Memorial service held in her honor at the University of Hawaii. No info on BHO attending; But “helped scatter her ashes over the Pacific Ocean.”
Problems with the story
- An alias for Stanley Ann Dunham was found as a “relative/associate” of Madelyn L. Dunham, Honolulu, HI: “Kelly A. Dunham.”
- Dunhams had only one daughter, Stanley Ann. Therefore, Kelly Ann, who does not seem to have any other history, is likely an alias for Stanley Ann.
An alias search for Stanley Ann at recordsarea.com shows the following information:
| * Kelly A. Dunham, associate/relative of Madelyn L. Dunham, Honolulu, HI; |
| * Kelly A. Shippleck (Kelly A. Dunham), Phoenix, AZ [is this a third marriage or an alias for real estate/money laundering?]. |
| * Sandra Dunham (Sandra Lee Dunham), OH, FL |
| * Susan N. Dunham, HI, CA. Ste (Stephen) Dunham, Honolulu, HI (Stanley Ann chooses another male name?) |
| * Stephen O. Dunham, Honolulu, HI |
| * Scott A. Dunham, (Stanley Ann chooses a second male name?), HI, WA, OR, TN, VA, IN. |
Each of the aforementioned aliases contains one or more references to the above examples. In cases where the trail seemingly ends, one needs only to cross-reference the “relatives/associates” and the trail continues. Some entries show as many as “99 addresses” in one city and “160 relatives/associates

It has been reported that Stanley Ann Dunham was at Ford Foundation during Barack’s Columbia years.
A reverse phone number search for the Ford Foundation number returns an individual by the name of Scott Terkowitz
Did Scott Terkowitz take over that phone number and office? It looks like he had a California license and a West Virginia license to practice.

A search for the Ford Foundation Address:
320 E. 43rd St. New York
There 36 places (mostly medical related) associated with this address. Not uncommon for large office buildings. Each business in the building have their own phone number, as you would expect.
The phone for the first place (a medical firm) on the list was searched and it returned 24 people having the same and IDENTICAL phone number but with DIFFERENT addresses, even out of state, for that number.
The common denominator of these results is each address is a different one for a different PHD Medical Doctor, but with the same phone number
It is possible this is a national group but very odd having different addresses.
The Ford Foundation and Stanley Ann's connection there
It is reported that Ann Dunham worked for the Ford Foundation in Indonesia for many years.
Going to the Ford Foundation website, the following information is given:
| The Jakarta office makes grants in Indonesia. |
| Ford Foundation |
| P.O. Box 2030 |
| Jakar ta 10020, Indonesia |
| Tel. (+62) 21-252-4073 |
| Fax (+62) 21-252-4078 |
| ffjakarta@fordfound.org |
|
The Ford Foundation began working in Indonesia, from an office located in Jakarta, in 1953. Over the years, we have provided more than $450 million in grants in selected fields. The great diversity of Indonesia’s people and their culture—in terms of geography, religion, and social differences—is a source of strength and innovation. At the same time, the nation’s ethnic and linguistic diversity presents challenges, and certain groups are significantly marginalized in their access to resources or participation in decisions that affect their lives. Broad, Evolving Focus The grant-making focus of the foundation has evolved over the years in response to the shifting political and economic landscape and the changing needs and priorities of Indonesia’s people and communities. Today, we are making major commitments in a range of areas, including local philanthropy; natural resources management, rural livelihoods and community empowerment; sexuality and reproductive health; governance and civil society; media, arts and culture; and formal and alternative education. Grants in these areas have been designed to strengthen individual and institutional capabilities, support innovative practices and disseminate information on successful approaches” |
The current analysis now raises this question:
Q Are these doctors involved with Organ Harvesting/Trafficking?
Rising trade in Human Organs is Alarming. You can read the article on this here: http://mitchell-langbert.blogspot.com/2008/11/contrairimairi-raises-baffling.html
Indonesia is one of the "hot-spots" for organ trading.
Q Are the people currently associated with the building that houses THE FORD FOUNDATION at 320 E. 43rd St. involved in another body organ trafficking ring?
Concerning Ann Dunham helped with microeconomics in Indonesia...so why her job title at Ford Foundation for Gender Equality?
The same pattern holds true for doing searches on the other phone numbers listed in the initial results. Each one returns a different list of Contacts, but each with the same phone number and yet different address. Each one is a Medical PHD.
A search for Ann Dunham and the Ford Foundation at rantburg.com yields this result:
Barry Soetoro aka Barack Obama Former Menteng student now US President “Dunham-Soetoro became a consultant for the United States Agency for International Development on setting up a village credit program, then a Ford Foundation program officer in Jakarta specializing in women’s work. Later, she was a consultant in Pakistan, then joined Indonesia’s oldest bank to work on what is described as the world’s largest sustainable microfinance program, creating services like credit and savings for the poor.”

Q SA Dunham the same as our Stanley Ann Dunham that worked at 320 E. 49th St. in NYC at the Ford Foundation??
She supposedly DIED in Nov. 1995, and Verizon didn’t come onto the scene until 1996..after the merger of Bell Atlantic and GE
http://verizonpathetic.com/historylesson6.html
Now, what is interesting is that on this search record, it states years of residence 1993, 1994, 1995. BUT, what is INTERESTING, is that the phone number associated with this S A Dunham was a Land Line..from Verizon. Verizon didn’t exist until 1996.
For years 1993, 1994, 1995 when she was supposed to be living in Hawaii?? She supposedly died on Nov. 7, 1995.
The address at 235 E. 40th St puts her on the same block as her Ford Foundation Job address. 320 E. 40TH ST.
Reverse search on her phone number..it came up name and address unavailable: Phone was a LAND LINE, Verizon

Low and behold, we see Ann only lives 3 city blocks from where she works
Overall analysis based on data presented above indicates
|
The multiple addresses under each alias suggest an extreme pattern of money laundering and real estate acquisitions. No one person would have so many addresses in one lifetime and certainly not under each alias. The research has, quite by accident, opened the door to the world of organized real estate fraud and money laundering. Admittedly, charging the Dunhams and their presumed aliases and Stanley Ann and her aliases with complicity in this nation-destroying scam is a bold step forward and, journalistically, could be deemed premature. However, the extent of money-laundering, as revealed by means of linking database names and real estate transactions, is staggering. On the basis of the above examples and evidence from other investigations, the numbers of properties involved likely number in the millions and would be worth hundreds of billions of dollars, if not $trillions. What is most interesting in this is how they appear to be accomplishing this as it has mixed the old Muslim money system of hawala with modern credit card laundering, including ATM transfers with the direct quid pro quo involving non profits and the indirect infiltration of funds via some very connected Muslim billionaires, topped off with the public airwaves as a public paid for propaganda ministry. For the basics, hawala, is an off the book banking system which runs the Middle East. No money ever exchanges hands across borders. It works like this: Ahmadinejad of Iran decides to disrupt the United States election process and tells a broker in Tehran, he wants to transfer several hundred thousand dollars to Iranian immigrants in the United States. The broker takes the money from Ahmadinejad, writes the transaction down in his notebook, assigns it a transaction number which he tells Ahmadinejad to send to his Iranian agents in New York or Detroit, who then go in and pick up the cash from the hawala broker which looks like a noodle merchant in a run down store. No money ever exchanges hands, but the Tehran broker will someday soon have money coming out of America and make the exchange and the books will balance then in a perpetual flow. |
Other interesting notes, including information from an undisclosed source claiming to know the real Obama
“There is no evidence Ann Dunham had even met Obama Senior in or around November 1960, the alleged time of conception, indeed it is not even clear Obama was in Honolulu at that time, although he may have been. Ann Dunham was only 17 and although she might have been in Honolulu the timing is tight. More to the point, she was in neither of the medical centers put forward by the Obama campaign (question: why do they not know in which hospital he was born?) on August 4th, nor are there medical records to back up the claimed birth, nor has an attending physician been named. I’ve heard of births with the father absent, births with the mother absent a bit trickier.”
“There are said to be photos of Ann Dunham on Waikiki Beach taken in or about July 1961, when she is supposed to have been in her third trimester, in a bikini, taken by a fellow female student. AD is clearly not pregnant. Media have not yet talked to fellow students, but it can’t be long. There are bound to be other photos of AD in existence taken during the alleged 2nd and 3rd trimesters. Obama campaign are terrified some one will press for her medical records, which have been accessed by CIA.” “Obama Senior was murdered in Kenya in 1982 to silence him. Interesting story, his sister Auma as well — she appears to be a full sister, not a half-sister as he is claiming, i.e. they share the same mother. She was ordered back to Kenya in 2007 to prevent DNA testing …. CIA did a DNA test on the grandparents, using saliva from glasses, which conclusively rules out any relationship between Obama and the Dunhams.” “Effectively,” the source concludes, “Obama is a German sleeper agent.” There was the fact that in Hawaii the boy was tutored in the ways of revolution by leading black activists, Muslim activists, and Communist activists. Influentia black nationalist and Communist Frank Marshall Davis would become a huge influence in the young Obama’s life.
But things really got strange with the revelation that Khalid al-Mansour, close adviser to a Saudi billionaire and royal family helped Obama get into Harvard Law School (and reportedly Columbia before that) and financed his education and advancement.
Those who controlled the life of Stanley Armour Dunham, prepared him for the subservient role he would later play, as a “surrogate grandfather” to a fictional character created for the purpose of first infiltrating, then compromising the United States government.
Lebanon Connection, money-laundering scheme using counterfeit money and stolen credit cards
Ann Dunham possibly not a America citizen and went to school in Beirut, Lebanon. Possibly the family was smuggled into the US as spies. No wonder Obama refuses to show his BC.
"It is not that difficult my fellow and fellowette citizens. I will remind you that Mr. Obama is currently being fed over $250 million in overseas funds. This is the same overseas forgery center of the Bekaa Valley in Lebanon which has the Xerox DocuColor 100 digital printing press at $500,000 a unit, along with the old acid paper and the presses which turns out hundreds of millions of dollars to fund terrorism around the world.
Do you really think an operation which was Axelrod inept and has graduated to contracting outside computer hackers in a quid pro quo is now going to be sunk in not coming up with a few documents and a few Democrats from operational military and intelligence backgrounds to clean up this problem?"
"The process is simple. 3rd world bank takes in counterfeit money to pay for non used credit cards which have been stolen."

http://lamecherry.blogspot.com/2008/10/oh-my-proven-right-again.html
http://lamecherry.blogspot.com/2008/11/some-necessary-obama-bailout-questions.html
"The payments are all electronic, so no statements are sent to unsuspecting people.
The net result the Obama campaign hauls in over 250 million in donations which means a big black hole deficit in someone's legitimate bank."
"Rep. John Boehner of the GOP asking about ghost loans of 2 trillion dollars to who knows where and what that the taxpayer is being stuck with in asking the real questions of just how much of this government bailout money and financial disaster flowed directly into Barack Obama's campaign funding orgy of 800 million dollars.
We know for a fact today that the Democratic Party BORROWED 15 million dollars for Barack Obama in the last weeks of the election. Which banks did this come from and as homeowners were in dire straits at the very least banks were giving Obama loans for steak dinners and jet trips while poor people were being squeezed to pay their mortgage."
The scheme in detail as explained by an expert in the process
"Obama receives 300 million dollars from the Middle East. The said Middle East bank has in it counterfeit money from Lebanon deposited knowing it is bogus.
Said Obama operatives in the Middle East take stolen American credit card numbers which if one recalls were all over the news just before the Obama campaign decided it was going to raise money via credit cards.
The operatives phone Obama's Penny Pritzker and donate whatever amounts that showed up on their books which amount to 300 million dollars.
American credit card companies pay it thinking they are being paid with real money from these banks. The operatives pay by electronic transfers the credit card bill so no physical bill is sent and the owner whether living or dead has no idea their account is active as most accounts do not show year end statements.
The money then goes into the Obama accounts in America banks and is paid out to willing Obama sucklings all squealing like pigs for the Obama in being funded by him.
For all the nonsense of Shep Smith not believing the MSM is in the tank for Obama and made a difference, no one has asked grinning Shep just how much 800 million dollars buys in loyalty from the media.
At the very least Barack Obama is on record for taking 15 million dollars from a strapped population in need of every cent to make house payments. At the mid ground, Barack Obama owes 300 million dollars in money which should be seized by the Treasury as it was fraudlent coming out of the Middle East. At the maximum, Barack Obama is knowingly guilty of criminal money fraud in taking a part in funding his campaign in the economic rape of the United States."
"No birth certificate for Stanley Ann Dunham or her parents, or her maternal grandparents. No marriage certificate for Ann's parents and no record of Ann's fathers service in the military. This would be a point Obama made to throw everyone off that no one in his family is a natural born citizen including him.
So why is the government covering up all of this for Obama? All these records Obama talks about are available to the FBI and the CIA. Yet we hear nothing?
We have no idea who Obama is. But this information here says he is a part of something larger than just POTUS."
More confusion (evil grin)
I ran across this last night. Go about 2/3 down the page to the picture of Obama sitting with grandparents on bench and the ring on his left hand disscussion.
Interested in everyone’s take on this (esp our photoshop experts).
I don’t place much emphasis on the ring, my own son was given a ring by his grandparents when he graduated and he wore it on his left ring finger. I had seen the speculation previously but cannot access the article you link because it freezes up my computer. There is another site with the same write up which is more friendly to my computer.
Works for me. Sometimes I run across things that I have my doubts about, this was one of them. I always like a second opinion.
For the record: (Georgia, Say it ain’t so!)

Review of “Betrayal By Any Other Name” (amazon)
Editorial Reviews
Product Description
Betrayal By Any Other Name systematically answers the controversial question of who truly speaks for- African Americans and Hispanic Americans. Over 800 attention-riveted pages beginning in Africa before and through the terror of slavery, Civil War reconstruction, Civil Rights and Black Nationalism. A similar treatment is presented in the evolution of Hispanic leadership couched in little known historical facts about Aztec and Mayan civilizations, how the west was-really won, and how Hispanic leadership came into existence. Probabilities are probed for future Black Brown coalitions and cooperation as the two groups grow to comprise the-majority of America. Many penetrating insights and ideas are presented, a few of which are:
* The application of the psychological phenomena “multiple personality disorder” to African-Americans as “group multiple personality disorder”.
* Significant Islamic influences on the development and growth of the fiery nationalist leader, Marcus Garvey.
* The meteoric rise and philosophy of a former slave and one of-the wealthiest Blacks in the history of America, Paul Cuffe.
* A practical approach for community self-help efforts-toward an about-face in school drop-outs, crime, incarceration, drugs, etc. which has reached crisis status in the Black community according to the most-recent annual report of the National Urban League.-

U.S. BANKS LURE FOREIGN INVESTORS
Press of Atlantic City, The (NJ) - Thursday, April 25, 1991
Author: BYLINE: Associated Press
*Bank stocks have rebounded but their prices are relatively cheap. With stable interest rates, they become good buys.
In recent weeks, Saudi tycoons have surfaced as major investors in two of the nation’s biggest banks, Citicorp and Chase Manhattan Corp. The deals are probably a coincidence and don’t show any particular trend of Arab investment, most experts said Wednesday.
(snip)
In February, Citicorp announced Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal of Saudi Arabia purchased $590 million of convertible preferred stock in a private placement. The prince stated he intends to limit his ownership in Citicorp, the nation’s largest banking company, to 10 percent. The Federal Reserve must approve any individual’s acquisition of more than a 10 percent interest in a bank or bank holding company.
(snip)
Citicorp’s private deal with the Talal was designed to boost the troubled banking giant’s capital levels and prove to the marketplace that it could attract investors.

Food for thought: Could it be possible Stanley Ann knew al-Mansour before odoomba? Was she the common demoninator?
From a 2002 biz announcement:
VP WELCOMES DR.KHALID ABDULLAH TARIO AL-MANSOUR TO IT’S BOARD.
Dr. Khalid Abdullah Tario Al-Mansour is an internationally acknowledged advisor to Heads of State and business leaders in Africa, Asia, the Middle East and North America. He has been actively involved in structuring investments and joint ventures worldwide for over 35 years.
http://www.wnd.com/index.php?pageId=74231
Khalid al-Mansour had other friends of influence in the literary and publishing world, foremost among them the late, literary leftist superstar and terrorist suck-up, Edward Said.
Said and Obama knew each other. A photo floating around the blogosphere shows the pair engaged in intimate discussion at an Arab-American community dinner
in Chicago 1998.
Bloggers ask how a then obscure state senator managed to wangle a seat next to the evening’s keynote speaker, a man the Nation would describe as “probably the best-known intellectual in the world.”
The answer can be traced back to Obama’s two-year stint at Columbia University in the early 1980s, where Said taught as a distinguished professor of comparative literature.
The Los Angeles Times reports that Obama took at least one course from Said. The intimacy of their 1998 conversation suggests a deeper relationship.
Obama, however, will not talk at all about Said, his New York years or his trip to Pakistan during those years despite numerous requests from the New York Times.
Like Obama, Said made his deracinated childhood the central, compelling metaphor for his significant life work. His identity as a Palestinian and a refugee, driven from his homeland by Israeli violence, would inform everything he wrote.
Said did not shy from using his grief and his influence to advance his cause. For 14 years, he served on the Palestine National Conference, a kind of parliament-in-exile alongside the likes of the PLO’s Yassir Arafat and still harder core radicals from the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, the terrorist group that hijacked the Achille Lauro.
Unfortunately for Said, an Israeli scholar named Justus Reid Weiner did two years of hard-nosed, boots-on-the-ground background research on Said’s life and published his findings in Commentary.
Weiner had proved beyond all doubt that America’s most celebrated Palestinian refugee was not a Palestinian or a refugee, let alone a Muslim.
In reality, Said was a Christian and an American citizen from birth, who grew up not in Palestine but in Cairo, where he attended the best British schools before leaving for a pricey American prep school as a teenager.
Although the New York Times reluctantly confirmed Weiner’s findings, the major media had no more interest in exposing the fraud of Said’s life any more than they do Muhammad Ali’s or Obama’s.
Among Said’s friends and allies on the American-hating, Arafat-loving left were none other than Khalid al-Mansour and – drum roll, please – William Ayers.
Radical turned actor Peter Coyote suggests as much in his diary written for the 1996 Democratic National Convention.
“After that,” Coyote writes, “I inform Martha that I’m dragging her to the apartment of old friends, ex-Weathermen, Bernadine Dohrn and Bill Ayers, hosting a party for Senator Leahy. Perhaps Edward Said will be there.”
Said did not shy from using his grief and his influence to advance his cause. For 14 years, he served on the Palestine National Conference, a kind of parliament-in-exile alongside the likes of the PLO’s Yassir Arafat and still harder core radicals from the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, the terrorist group that hijacked the Achille Lauro.
Interesting theme, Islamic victimhood. For example:
In a recent association lecture, Khalid Abdullah Tariq Al-Mansour, an American author and lawyer who now lives in the Middle East, urged the youngsters to study math and science, as well as their own history. ''If I read Jet magazine and nothing else, I can't build a pyramid or a bridge,'' said Al-Mansour. ''If I talk every day only about what white people have done to me, I can't build a road.''

Obama gravitated to Middle Easterners at Occidental, a pretty good indication of who he identified with. He didn’t become a black man until the years between Columbia and Harvard.

Good link.
I wonder what Stanley Ann was involved in before being whisked away to Hawaii.
Good job. I noted the Dallas connect.
Wonder when she posed for those photos?

Sadat Proposes U.S. Professor as Palestinian Envoy
Washington Post, The (DC) - Sunday, November 13, 1977
Author: Dusko Doder, Washington Post Staff Writer; Washington Post staff researcher Jane Freundel contributed to this article.
President Anwar Sadat of Egypt, in a move to circumvent the main stumbling block to reconvening Middle East peace talks, had proposed that the Palestinians be represented at Geneva by an American university professor of Palestinian origin.

Another U.S. citizen of Palestinian descent who was mentioned as a possible candidate is Edward W. Said , 42, a native of Jerusalem who was educted at Harvard and Columbia and served on the faculties of both universities . He is currently a professor of literature at Columbia and is also a member of the Palestine National Council.

Building an Arab-American Lobby
Washington Post, The (DC) - Sunday, September 14, 1980
(snip)
Hisham Shirabi, 50, a professor of political science at Georgetown, and Edward Said , 44, a professor of literature at Columbia , are considered luminaries among Arab-Americans, having written important studies on the Mideast struggle. But they are different from Shadyac and Zogby, who are American-born. Though American citizens, and married to Americans, Shirabi and Said are Palestinian born and think of themselves as exiles. Though they will probably never go “home,” their feeling for the Arab stake in the Middle East is personal and direct.
Lean and taut, friendly enough but rigidly formal, Shirabi talked with me in a student restaurant near the Georgetown campus. He smiled rarely and with melancholy. “When we lost the country in 1948,” he said softly, “I was studying at the University of Chicago, and I could not go home. The tragedy has shaped my life ever since. Until 1967 we had confidence that Nasser would liberate the land. When the war came, we went into deep cultural shock. It drove some of us to reconsider the entire Arab past and future. We had to ask, ‘How come?’”
Said is dark and handsome with an athletic look and an easy but nervous laugh. I met with him in his dingy office on the Columbia campus. “My friends and I had all been admirers of Nasser,” he said , “and we couldn’t understand what had happened. The war gave us a sense of Israel’s dynamism and of its scientific, military, technical and intellectual prowess. At the same time, we saw the inability of the Arabs to work together. We did a lot of soul-searching in the months after the war.”
It was in those postwar months that Shirabi and Said met in Chicago with other Arab-American intellectuals, most of them exiles like themselves, to found the Association of Arab-American University Graduates. Currently its membership is about a thousand, most of whom are campus-based intellectuals. It publishes a newsletter, information papers, monographs, books and a scholarly periodical called Arab Quarterly.
The AAUG’s positions, Shirabi said , are militantly pro-Palestinian, pan-Arab and radical. Furthermore, the AAUG, he said , identifies openly with the Palestine Liberation Organization, which he described as a “consensus group” supported by all Arab-Americans except some from the Lebanese Christian right. Shirabi himself maintains close ties with the PLO, and Said is actually a member of the Palestine National Council, the PLO’s parent body.
Shirabi said that withing the past few years the AAUG has followed the PLO in abandoning insistnece upon “liberation,” and now favors a “two-state solution” to the Palestine question. But, like the PLO, the AAUG refuses to support the Camp David agrement, and its subsequent criticism of President Sadat has caused its Egyptian members to drop out.
Though the AAUG addresses its literature to both Arab and Arab-American questions, much of its organizational work is directed at politicizing the Arab-American community. Shirabi told me the AAUG would be willingly accept funds from the PLO and the oil-producing countries to expand its activities, but he noted regretfully that they have never offered any. He acknowledged that the AAUG had probably had little impact on American policy. But he said it had been useful in establishing an Arab intellectual presence in America and had helped arouse Arab-Americans from their traditional indifference to world politics.
Abdeen Jabara, a Detroit-born Arab-American, had opened a law office in his home town in 1965 to serve the city’s 200,000-member Arab-American community. A year later he went to Lebanon, where his parents were from, to learn some Arabic. He was in Beirut when the Six-Day War broke out. “It was like standing before a dam that burst” was how he described his reaction to me.
Jabara was among those who met with Shirabi and Said in Chicago to found the Association of Arab-American University Graduates in the fall of 1967. A few months later the AAUG’s charter was actually written in his office. Jabara, now 39, was named the AAUG’s first executive secretary and later served as its president. In the mid-1970s, seeing a need to focus attention on the Palestinians, he joined with Jim Zogby to open the office of the Palestine Human Rights Campaign in Washington.

U.S. SUGGESTS 7 PALESTINIANS FOR NEW TALKS WITH ISRAEL

The Israeli also confirmed the names of Edward Said of Columbia University and Hisham Sharabi of Georgetown University. An Israeli newspaper said the third professor was Walid Khalidi of Harvard, a former member of the Palestine National Council.

U. OF C. PROF BRINGS `FAIR` VIEW TO TALKS
Chicago Tribune - Thursday, October 31, 1991
Author: Cheryl Lavin.
What`s a New York-born University of Chicago professor doing in Madrid as a member of the Palestinian advisory committee to the Middle East peace talks? It`s precisely because he was born in the U.S. and teaches in Chicago,
among other factors, that made the U. of C.`s Rashid Khalidi a logical, and
even obvious, choice, according to Palestinians and others.
They said the advisory committee, a link between the official
Palestinian-Jordanian delegation and the Palestine Liberation Organization,
was designed to bypass Israeli objections to participation by Palestinians
living in Jerusalem. It had a French-Palestinian and an English-Palestinian
and needed an American.
And ``it was important to the PLO to have scholars on the committee,
because as much as possible, they have a more dispassionate outlook,`` said
Louise Cainkar, director of the Palestine Human Rights Information Center.
At 43, Khalidi is younger than such better-known Palestinian academics in the U.S. as Edward Said of Columbia University in New York and Ibrahim Abu-
Lughod of Northwestern University, both of whom were born in the Middle
East.
Moreover, to the press and the American public, Khalidi is perceived as
representative of a new, more moderate generation of leadership and as an
articulate spokesman for the Palestinian cause.
Khalidi is a member of an old and prestigious Palestinian family. His
cousin, Jerusalem-born Walid Khalidi , 65, who teaches at Harvard, is the
senior member of the Jordanian-Palestinian delegation to the talks.

Middle East Studies Under Scrutiny in U.S. - Watchdog Groups Allege Left-Wing Bias
Washington Post - Tuesday, January 13, 2004
Author: Michael Dobbs, Washington Post Staff Writer
When Rashid Khalidi took over the newly established Edward Said Chair of Middle East Studies at Columbia University last fall, the appointment was generally viewed as an academic coup for the school, which had succeeded in wooing away a prominent Middle East expert from the University of Chicago, a longtime rival.
But Khalidi soon became the target of an Internet campaign that questioned his patriotism. Conservative critics zeroed in on his outspoken opposition to the war in Iraq and his public expressions of sympathy for the Palestinian cause.
“Columbia vs. America,” declared a story on Campus Watch, a Web site dedicated to revealing the alleged bias of mainstream Middle East studies programs at U.S. colleges and universities. The New York Sun dubbed Khalidi “the professor of hate.”

Someone posted a *link* to those photos last night, but it was pulled before new people on FR had a chance to see them. The article and link was posted last year, and is still on FR, so it wasn't a new and shocking article.
More revealing photos frequently are posted on FR and allowed to remain without comment. In the case of Stanley Ann, no photos were posted, only a link to the photos.
Thanks, LucyT.
Has there been any info on when, where and by whom those photos were taken?
