Obama disclosed that Soomro's father was his host when he went on a hunting expedition in Jacobabad during his visit to Pakistan in 1981.

And Obama claims the only hunting he did in his entire life was spear fishing as a boy in Hawaii.

Notice they don't specify WHAT Obama was hunting during the trip, or whether it walked on four legs or two.

Why is Obama always linked to political highly placed rich Muslims, if he is an American Christian?

Rolling Stone, July 10-24 issue, page 82, "Inside Barack Obama's Inner Circle":

Valerie Jarrett

Joined Obama: in 1991 after hiring Michelle Obama to work for Chicago's Mayor Daley

Title: Senior Advisor

Masterminded campaign's revival in 2007

Little-known fact: Born in Iran

The lady deserves some additional examination.

Excuse my apparent ignorance - but what exactly does Obama being in Jacobabad in 1981 have to do with the current location of Osama?

Is the author trying to imply that Obama was in Quetta in 1981? Sorry - but Osama wasn’t on our “most wanted list” back then...

But assuming that Obama and Osama were actually 200 miles apart - is there then an implication that they met back then?

I just don’t see a massive story in this. Kind of reminds me of some of the supposed “dirt” being thrown at Palin these days...

That being said - I am curious who the mysterious character is who now lives in South America....

Ok - I get at least some of the scuttlebutt... I was not aware that Pakistan was under martial law. And I didn’t even think about the Afghan/Soviet conflict going on....

So just Obama’s BEING in Pakistan is suspect, regardless of any theoretical or assumed Osama connection.

All the rest just makes the story more interesting... and mysterious...

>>HE could enter a country that AMERICANS were banned from visiting at the time

That’s wrong. There was never such a ban.

Arabs used to flock to hunt in Pakistan. And after the Soviets invaded Afghanistan, Pakistan was awash with all kinds of Arabs.

The only potential thing about this story is what passport he used to travel there, if American, no big story, if nonAmerican, huge.

As far as being close to Obama, this was not the start of major US funding, but there were SF trainers, both American and English, within far closer distance of Osama.

The Saudi Intel Service was supporting and using Osama as a motivator and fundraiser, Prince Turki, and we were definitely supportive of Turki’s efforts at the time.

Contrary to what has been expressed based on lack knowledge, things were quite different in Pakistan in 1981. US and Pakistan cooperation was just started in 1981 as a deal was signed. At that time there was no significant resistance from West to Soviet invasion to Afghanistan and only local Afghans were resisting. No Saudi aided “ Madarssa” were founded then. They were founded in later years to produce “ Mujaheeden” who fought war for US. At that time Afghan refugees were not allowed to move as far as Karachi. Mind it that Karachi is almost 1500 kilometer from Afghan-Peshawar border. Therefore there was no big narcotic trade existed then. In those days Karachi was a town of 7 million people ( now 19 million). Majority of those are educated and white collar/ industrial workers. Jacobabod city is known for hunting for black deer ( very rare) and also for “ Pallah fish” ( again rare). It is very close to “Moin-jo-Daro” ... some 5000 years old civilization ruins ( one of the most important archaeological treasures) of world. I was finishing my high school in those days and actually it was quite some fun to be in Karachi in those days (Still its not as bad as it appears on CNN). Therefore, despite all conspiracy theories, I am glad to certify that it seems quite innocent for a 21 yr old American college boy to visit his friends in Karachi in those days, who happened to know one of the largest and billionaire land owners in Pakistan...Somro family... they own hundreds of thousands of acres and millions of people live and work on their farm land

1981 would have been between Occidental and Columbia. Very little is known about his time or associaions at Columbia.

I saw and have not seen again a video of a Brit ‘imam’ after 9/11, screaming at the top of his lungs about how ‘you’ll see. We’re going to turn the White House into the black house.”

I have never seen that again. I remember the guy and could identify him.

Here it is, perhaps a new thread needs to be started on this. We Americans forget too soon.

Where do these college kids like Obama and Clinton get the money for these overseas trips? And what was he doing visiting a muslim country? Oh yeah, just checking on his “roots”.

The American people see the long term plan? Are you blind? The people supporting Obama come in two groups. Blind idiots and American haters who want to see this country destroyed. Obama falls into the second category.

Hide your guns and hide, hide your history books and your Bibles!
