An informed source has told WMR that Obamaâs tuition debt at Columbia was paid off by BIC. In addition, WMR has learned that when Obama lived in Indonesia with his mother and his adoptive father Lolo Soetoro, the 20-year-old Obama, who was known as âBarry Soetoro,â traveled to Pakistan in 1981. He was hosted by the family of Muhammadmian Soomro, a Pakistani âSindhiâ who became acting President of Pakistan after the resignation of General Pervez Musharraf on August 18, 2008. WMR was told that the Obama/Soetoro trip to Pakistan, ostensibly to go âpartridge huntingâ with the Soomros, related to unknown CIA business. The covert CIA program to assist the Afghan mujaheddin was already well underway at the time and Pakistan was the major base of operations for the CIAâs support . . . BIC had long been associated with CIA activities. BIC was founded by Eldridge Haynes, a self-professed liberal Democrat. The BIC headquarters was located at the prestigious address of 1 Dag Hammarskjold Plaza in Manhattan.â
Through its contacts with leading liberals around the world, BIC sought to recruit those on the left as CIA agents and assets. BIC documents obtained by WMR describe a series of top level âround tablesâ between US business and intelligence chiefs and government leaders around the world, including Ethiopiaâs Emperor Haile Selassie, and 83 ministers and officials of 33 multinational organizations in Addis Ababa in 1969; Colombian President Carlos Lleras Restrepo and business and labor leaders of six Andean Bloc countries in 1968 and 1972; Argentine President General Juan Carlos Ongania and his junta in 1966; Spanish dictator Francisco Franco and his cabinet in 1962 and 1967; Brazilian President Emilio Medici in 1970; and Indonesian dictator Suharto and his cabinet in 1968 and 1972.
Obamaâs mother, Ann Dunham, and his father, Barack Obama, Sr., met at the University of Hawaii in 1960 in a Russian-language class. At the time, the CIA and Britainâs MI-6 were concerned about Soviet penetration of Kenyaâs independence movement. Kenya became independent of Britain in 1963.
After marrying Indonesian national Lolo Soetoro, Dunham moved with Barack Obama, Jr. to Indonesia in 1966, just as the Suharto dictatorship was consolidating its hold on power, which included the massacre of some 1 million Indonesian Communists. Dunham left Indonesia in 1972, returning to Hawaii with her son. Dunham periodically made trips back to Indonesia, as well as to Pakistan, while working for the Ford Foundation and the US Agency for International Development (USAID), the latter commonly used by the CIA for official cover agents.
