Yeah, I wondered about that too. Someone needs to ask him if he has ever been hunting.

Also, did ya notice that they used Obama’s middle name in the article?....must be a reason.

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.

For those Pakistani moose, donchaknow.

Oddly enough, the last time I heard mention of a hunting expedition in Pakistan, it was Aafia Siddiqui's estranged husband Dr. Mohammed Amjad Khan claiming he needed the night-vision goggles, military manuals and body armor they bought... for a huntng trip.

Siddiqui and her husband were by now being watched by the FBI for having used a debit card to buy night-vision goggles, body armour, and military manuals from American websites, and for donating to charities the FBI watches closely. When questioned, Khan told authorities he had purchased the military items for big-game hunting in Pakistan, saying goggles and armour weren’t available there.
They must have some fierce critters if you need body armor... you don't even need that to hunt bear in Alaska.

Hopefully Obama was looking for smaller game.

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.
