Okay, this NEEDS to be investigated. Obama has questioned everything sarah has ever done....these are serious questions.
“The Obama campaign says Obama was in Pakistan for about three weeks, staying with his friend’s family in Karachi and also visiting Hyderabad in Southern India. NOW, It all sounds very innocent, ‘a college trip to Pakistan‘. Pakistan was in turmoil in 1981 and ruled of martial law. Millions of Afghan refugees were living in Pakistan, while the Afghan Mujahedeen operated from bases inside Pakistan in their war with the Soviets. One of the leaders that based his operation in Quetta, Pakistan was Usama Bin Laden (The Sheik). Pakistan was on the banned travel list for US Citizens at the time and all non-Muslim visitors were not welcome unless sponsored by their embassy for official business. There would be only a few reasons a young Westerner of the Muslim faith would travel to Pakistan in 1981: To Participate in Jihad, which is the duty of every ‘True Believer‘. For religious education in a Wahabbi sect, Saudi funded, Madrassa. In order to purchase drugs from the drug marketplace. Pakistan was not a tourist stop nor the place to hang out with someone’s family in 1981.”

Can you support that assertion with a source. I visited Pakistan three times during the period 1979-1981 on official business. There may have been travel advisories in effect about travel to Pakistan warning of the dangers involved, especially after our embassy in Islamabad was burned down, but I don't believe there was ever a ban on travel to Pakistan similar to the ones affecting travel to Cuba and North Korea.
