# 132, on president Obama & jihad

132. Last Sunday Mr. Obama had a town-hall meeting in Mumbai, India where he avoided to define Jihad following a request of a young girl... As it wasn't the first time he reacted almost with numbness when the majority of Americans expect him to deliver -as the leader of the USA- a strong position regarding the menace coming from Muslim fanatics, I couldn't avoid to remember the article I wrote on the eve of the 2008 Presidential elections... Therein I did expose the true signs of a surprising commitment of the young Barack Hussein to the Muslim faith...
The excerpt as follows:

"When Barack was 20 years old in 1981 he spent 3 weeks in Pakistan.

Pakistan was in turmoil in 1981 and ruled by 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 bin Laden (a.k.a. "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 have been only 3 reasons for a young Westerner of Muslim faith to 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; or in order to purchase drugs from the drug marketplace. In that year Pakistan was by no means a tourist stop nor the place to hang out with someone's family."
