At that time, 1981, Obama’s safety would have been improved traveling under an Indonesian (or Kenyan) passport. For 1981 was the year Anwar Sadat was assassinated, the year of the assassination attempt on Pope John II, the year of the terrorist bombing at USAF Ramstein that killed twenty. The Pakistani terror organization Jamaat ul-Fuqra was formed in 1980. Fundamentalist Muslim terror was on the ascendant.
Oh, so now we’re at “Obama’s safety would have been improved” rather than “US passport holders were banned from traveling to Pakistan.” Next I expect it will be “he could get cheaper rates at the Karachi Holiday Inn if they didn’t know he was an American.”
**traveling under an Indonesian (or Kenyan) passport**
Can we find out if he has ever had an Indonesian or Kenyan passport?
