Obama Is Right, There Are More Important Issues Than His Birth
Certificate

Such as his extensive intelligence community background and the
sealing of Barry Soetoro’s records by executive order

Barack Obama’s assertion today that there are more important things to worry
about than the place of his birth is technically accurate. As we have documented
since the very beginning of his presidential campaign, the birther issue is, in
the main, a distraction, a smokescreen designed to whip up a frenzy that has
effectively concealed a much bigger story, the history of the CIA creation Barry
Soetoro.

The story of the poor son of a Kenyan goat herder who lived in a tin-roofed
shack, who made it good, a product of the unwavering American dream, is
compelling. But it is just that – a story, a fantasy, a fiction.

We will likely never know the full history of Barack Obama, because
his first
official act as president on January 21, 2009 was
to seal the
release of his records with an executive order.

Why?

Those who have delved deeper into Obama’s past moved beyond his birth
certificate a long time ago. They have uncovered evidence and clues that
indicate Obama’s rare rise to power stems exclusively from extensive
intelligence connections.

Obama is just one of many that were selected as part of a long-term strategic
plan to recruit promising candidates into intelligence and steer these
individuals and their families into positions of influence and power.

Investigative reporter and former NSA employee Wayne Madsen last year put
together an extensive three-part series conclusively documenting that Barack
Obama Sr., Stanley Ann Dunham, Lolo Soetoro and President Barack Obama himself
all hold deep ties to the CIA and larger intelligence community. And that’s just
the beginning.

The centrepiece of these investigations is the fact that Obama
legally changed his name to
“Barry Soetoro” and became an Indonesian citizen, and that no
records in the public domain show that he ever changed his name or citizenship
back.

Madsen appeared exclusively on the Alex Jones show on August 19 last year to
break down the key facets of his investigation.

Watch the interview:

Here, reposted in full, is the write up of Wayne Madsen’s extensive
investigation into Barack Obama’s rise to power.

The Story of Obama: All in The Company (In Three
Parts)

Wayne Madsen

Report
August 18, 2010

PART 1: The Story of Obama: All in The Company (Part I)

Investigative journalist Wayne Madsen has discovered CIA files that document
the agency’s connections to institutions and individuals figuring prominently in
the lives of Barack Obama and his mother, father, grandmother, and stepfather.
The first part of his report highlights the connections between Barack Obama,
Sr. and the CIA-sponsored operations in Kenya to counter rising Soviet and
Chinese influence among student circles and, beyond, to create conditions
obstructing the emergence of independent African leaders.

From 1983-84, Barack Obama worked as Editor at Business
Internation Corporation, a Business International Corporation, a known CIA
front company.

President Obama’s own work in 1983 for Business International Corporation, a
CIA front that conducted seminars with the world’s most powerful leaders and
used journalists as agents abroad, dovetails with CIA espionage activities
conducted by his mother, Stanley Ann Dunham in 1960s post-coup Indonesia on
behalf of a number of CIA front operations, including the East-West Center at
the University of Hawaii, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID),
and the Ford Foundation. Dunham met and married Lolo Soetoro, Obama’s
stepfather, at the East-West Center in 1965. Soetoro was recalled to Indonesia
in 1965 to serve as a senior army officer and assist General Suharto and the CIA
in the bloody overthrow of President Sukarno.

Barack Obama, Sr., who met Dunham in 1959 in a Russian language class at the
University of Hawaii, had been part of what was described as an airlift of 280
East African students to the United States to attend various colleges — merely
“aided” by a grant from the Joseph P. Kennedy Foundation, according to a
September 12, 1960, Reuters report from London. The airlift was a
CIA operation to train and indoctrinate future agents of influence in Africa,
which was becoming a battleground between the United States and the Soviet Union
and China for influence among newly-independent and soon-to-be independent
countries on the continent.

The airlift was condemned by the deputy leader of the opposition Kenyan
African Democratic Union (KADU) as favoring certain tribes — the majority
Kikuyus and minority Luos — over other tribes to favor the Kenyan African
National Union (KANU), whose leader was Tom Mboya, the Kenyan nationalist and
labor leader who selected Obama, Sr. for a scholarship at the University of
Hawaii. Obama, Sr., who was already married with an infant son and pregnant wife
in Kenya, married Dunham on Maui on February 2, 1961 and was also the
university’s first African student. Dunham was three month’s pregnant with
Barack Obama, Jr. at the time of her marriage to Obama, Sr.

The CIA allegedly recruited Tom M’Boya in a heavily funded
“selective liberation” programme to isolate Kenya’s founding President Jomo
Kenyatta, who the American spy agency labelled as “unsafe.”

KADU deputy leader Masinda Muliro, according to Reuters, said
KADU would send a delegation to the United States to investigate Kenyan students
who received “gifts” from the Americans and “ensure that further gifts to Kenyan
students are administered by people genuinely interested in Kenya’s
development.’”

Mboya received a $100,000 grant for the airlift from the Kennedy Foundation
after he turned down the same offer from the U.S. State Department, obviously
concerned that direct U.S. assistance would look suspicious to pro-Communist
Kenyan politicians who suspected Mboya of having CIA ties. The Airlift Africa
project was underwritten by the Kennedy Foundation and the African-American
Students Foundation. Obama, Sr. was not on the first airlift but a subsequent
one. The airlift, organized by Mboya in 1959, included students from Kenya,
Uganda, Tanganyika, Zanzibar, Northern Rhodesia, Southern Rhodesia, and
Nyasaland.

Reuters also reported that Muliro charged that Africans were
“disturbed and embittered” by the airlift of the selected students. Muliro
“stated that “preferences were shown to two major tribes [Kikuyu and Luo] and
many U.S.-bound students had failed preliminary and common entrance
examinations, while some of those left behind held first-class
certificates.”

Obama, Sr. was a friend of Mboya and a fellow Luo. After Mboya was
assassinated in 1969, Obama, Sr. testified at the trial of his alleged assassin.
Obama, Sr. claimed he was the target of a hit-and-run assassination attempt
after his testimony.

CIA-airlifted to Hawaii, Barack Obama Sr., with leis, stands with
Stanley Dunham, President Obama’s grandfather, on his right.

Obama, Sr., who left Hawaii for Harvard in 1962, divorced Dunham in 1964.
Obama, Sr. married a fellow Harvard student, Ruth Niedesand, a Jewish-American
woman, who moved with him to Kenya and had two sons. They were later divorced.
Obama, Sr. worked for the Kenyan Finance and Transport ministries as well as an
oil firm. Obama, Sr. died in a 1982 car crash and his funeral was attended by
leading Kenyan politicians, including future Foreign Minister Robert Ouko, who
was murdered in 1990.

CIA files indicate that Mboya was an important agent-of-influence for the
CIA, not only in Kenya but in all of Africa. A formerly Secret
CIA Current Intelligence Weekly Summary, dated November 19, 1959,
states that Mboya served as a check on extremists at the second All-African
People’s Conference (AAPC) in Tunis. The report states that “serious friction
developed between Ghana’s Prime Minister Kwame Nkrumah and Kenyan nationalist
Tom Mboya who cooperated effectivelylast December to check
extremists at the AAPC’s first meeting in Accra.” The term “cooperated
effectively” appears to indicate that Mboya was cooperating with the CIA, which
filed the report from field operatives in Accra and Tunis. While “cooperating”
with the CIA in Accra and Tunis, Mboya selected the father of the president of
the United States to receive a scholarship and be airlifted to the University of
Hawaii where he met and married President Obama’s mother.

An earlier CIA Current Intelligence Weekly Summary, secret, and
dated April 3, 1958, states that Mboya “still appears to be the most promising
of the African leaders.” Another CIA weekly summary, secret and dated December
18, 1958, calls Mboya the Kenyan nationalist an “able and dynamic young
chairman” of the People’s Convention party who was viewed as an opponent of
“extremists” like Nkrumah, supported by “Sino-Soviet representatives.”

In a formerly Secret CIA report on the All-Africa Peoples Conference in 1961,
dated November 1, 1961, Mboya’s conservatism, along with that of Taleb Slim of
Tunisia, are contrasted to the leftist policies of Nkrumah and others.
Pro-communists who were elected to the AAPC’s steering committee at the March
1961 Cairo conference, attended by Mboya, are identified in the report as
Abdoulaye Diallo, AAPC Secretary General, of Senegal; Ahmed Bourmendjel of
Algeria; Mario de Andrade of Angola; Ntau Mokhele of Basutoland; Kingue Abel of
Cameroun; Antoine Kiwewa of Congo (Leopoldville); Kojo Botsio of Ghana; Ismail
Toure of Guinea; T. O. Dosomu Johnson of Liberia; Modibo Diallo of Mali; Mahjoub
Ben Seddik of Morocco; Djibo Bakari of Niger; Tunji Otegbeya of Nigeria; Kanyama
Chiume of Nyasaland; Ali Abdullahi of Somalia; Tennyson Makiwane of South
Africa, and Mohamed Fouad Galal of the United Arab Republic.

The only attendees in Cairo who were given a clean bill of health by the CIA
were Mboya, who appears to have been a snitch for the agency, and Joshua Nkomo
of Southern Rhodesia, B. Munanka of Tanganyika, Abdel Magid Shaker of Tunisia,
and John Kakonge of Uganda.

Nkrumah would eventually be overthrown in a 1966 CIA-backed coup while he was
on a state visit to China and North Vietnam. The CIA overthrow of Nkrumah
followed by one year the agency’s overthrow of Sukarno, another coup that was
connected to President Obama’s family on his mother’s side. There are suspicions
that Mboya was assassinated in 1969 by Chinese agents working with anti-Mboya
factions in the government of Kenyan President Jomo Kenyatta in order to
eliminate a pro-U.S. leading political leader in Africa. Upon Mboya’s death,
every embassy in Nairobi flew its flag at half-mast except for one, the embassy
of the People’s Republic of China.

Jomo Kenyatta, first President of Kenya.

Mboya’s influence in the Kenyatta government would continue long after his
death and while Obama, Sr. was still alive. In 1975, after the assassination of
KANU politician Josiah Kariuki, a socialist who helped start KANU, along with
Mboya and Obama, Sr., Kenyatta dismissed three rebellious cabinet ministers who
“all had personal ties to either Kariuki or Tom Mboya.” This information is
contained in CIA Staff Notes on the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia,
formerly Top Secret Umbra, Handle via COMINT Channels, dated June 24, 1975. The
intelligence in the report, based on its classification, indicate the
information was derived from National Security Agency intercepts in Kenya. No
one was ever charged in the assassination of Kariuki.

The intecepts of Mboya’s and Kariuki’s associates are an indication that the
NSA and CIA also maintain intercepts on Barack Obama, Sr., who, as a non-U.S.
person, would have been lawfully subject at the time to intercepts carried out
by NSA and Britain’s Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ).

PART 2: Special Report. The Story of Obama: All in The Company
- Part II

In Part I of this WMR special report, we revealed the connections between
Barack Obama, Sr. and the CIA-affiliated Airlift Africa project to provide
college degrees to and gain influence over a group of 280 eastern and
southern African students from soon-to-be independent African nations to counter
similar programs established by the Soviet Union and China. Barack Obama Sr. was
the first African student to attend the University of Hawaii. Obama Sr. and
Obama’s mother Stanley Ann Dunham met in a Russian language class in 1959 and
they married in 1961.

The African airlift program was administered by Kenyan nationalist leader Tom
Mboya, a fellow Luo tribe mentor and friend of the senior Obama. According to
CIA documents described in Part I, Mboya also served the CIA in ensuring
that pro-Soviet and pro-Chinese African nationalists were stymied in their
attempt to dominate pan-African nationalist political, student, and labor
movements.

One of Mboya’s chief opponents was Ghana’s first president, Kwame Nkrumah,
who was ousted in a CIA-inspired coup in 1966, one year before to Obama
Sr’s son, Barack Obama, Jr. and his mother joined Lolo Soetoro, an
Indonesian who Obama’s mother met at the University of Hawaii in 1965, when
President Obama was four years old.

In 1967, Obama and his mother joined her husband in Jakarta. In 1965, Lolo
Soetoro had been called back from Hawaii by General Suharto to serve as an
officer in the Indonesian military to help launch a bloody CIA-backed
genocide of Indonesian Communists and Indonesian Chinese throughout the
expansive country. Suharto consolidated his power in 1966, the same year that
Barack Obama, Sr.’s friend, Mboya, had helped to rally pro-U.S. pan-African
support for the CIA’s overthrow of Nkrumah in Ghana in 1966.

East-West Center, University of Hawaii,  and CIA coup
against Sukarno

Ann Dunham met Soetoro at the East-West Center at the University of Hawaii.
The center had long been affiliated with CIA activities in the Asia-Pacific
region. In 1965, the year that Dunham met and married Soetoro, the center saw a
new chancellor take over. He was Howard P. Jones who served a record seven
years, from 1958 to 1965, as U.S. ambassador to Indonesia. Jones was present in
Jakarta as Suharto and his CIA-backed military officers planned the 1965
overthrow of Sukarno, who was seen, along with the Indonesian Communist Party
(PKI), as allies of China.

When Jones was chancellor of the East-West Center, he wrote an article for
the Washington Post, dated October 10, 1965, in which he defended
Suharto’s overthrow of Sukarno. Jones was “invited” by the Post to
comment on the Suharto coup, described as a “counter-coup” against the
Communists. Jones charged that Suharto was merely responding to an earlier
attempted Communist-led coup against Sukarno launched by Lt. Col. Untung, “a
relatively unknown battalion commander in the palace guard.”

Jones’s article, which mirrored CIA situation reports from the U.S. embassy
in Jakarta, continued by stating that the alleged leftist coup on September
30 ”came within an inch of succeeding through the assassination of six of
the top military command. It might well have succeeded had not Defense Minister
Nasution and a number of other senior generals also maked for assassination
acted fast in a dramatic counter-coup.” Of course, what Jones did not inform
thePost’s readers was that the Suharto “counter-coup” had been assisted
with the strong help of the CIA.

Sukarno never blamed the Communists for the assassination of the army
generals nor did the Indonesian Cabinet, where the second= and third-ranking
leaders of the PKI were present. The possibility that the assassination of the
generals was a CIA/Suharto “false flag” operation to affix blame on the PKI
cannot be ruled out. Two days after Suharto’s coup, a CIA “rent-a-mob” burned
down the PKI headquarters in Jakarta. As they marched past the U.S. Embassy,
which was also the site of the CIA station, they yelled out, “Long live
America!”

Untung later said that when he became aware that Suharto and the CIA were
planning a coup on October 5, 1965 – Indonesian Armed Forces Day
– forces loyal to him and Sukarno moved first. Jones described this as
“typical Communist propaganda.” Suharto moved against Sukarno on October 1.
Jones iterated that “there was not an iota of truth . . . in the accusation that
the CIA was working against Sukarno.” History has proven otherwise. Jones
accused the Communists of taking advantage of Sukarno’s failing health to beat
out the other candidates to succeed him. The goal, according to Jones, was to
have PKI boss D.N. Aidit succeed Sukarno. Sukarno did not die until 1970, while
under house arrest.

A CIA paper, formerly classified Secret and undated, states “Sukarno would
like to return to the status quo ante-coup. He has refused to condemn the PKI or
the 30th September Movement [of Lt. Col. Untung]; instead, he calls for unity of
Indonesia and asks that no vengeance be taken by one group against the other.
But, he has not succeeded in forcing the Army to abandon its anti-PKI activities
and, on the other hand, he has bowed to their demand by appointing its single
candidate General Suharto as head of the Army.” Suharto and Barry Obama
Soetoro’s step-father Lolo Soetoro would ignore Sukarno’s call for no vengeance,
as hundreds of thousands of Indonesians would soon discover.

The mass murder by Suharto of Indonesian Chinese is seen in the CIA paper’s
description of the Baperki Party: “the leftist Baperki Party, with its major
strength in rural areas, is largely Chinese-Indonesian in membership.” A CIA
Intelligence Memorandum, dated October 6, 1966 and formerly classified Secret,
shows the extent of the CIA’s monitoring of the anti-Sukarno coup from various
CIA agents assigned as liaisons to Suharto’s army units surrounding the
Presidential Palace in Bogor and at various diplomatic posts around the
country, including the U.S. Consulate in Medan, which was keeping track of
leftists in that Sumatran city and, which, in an October 2, 1965, Intelligence
Memo, reported to the CIA that the “Soviet consul-general in Medan has a plane
standing by that could be used for evacuation of Soviet citizens from Sumatra.”
The October 6 memo also warns against allowing Untung from developing
a following in Central Java.

A CIA formerly Secret “Weekly Summary Special Report” on Indonesia, dated August
11, 1967, and titled “The New Order in Indonesia,” reports that in 1966,
Indonesia re-aligned its economy in order to receive International Monetary Fund
(IMF) assistance. The CIA reports its is happy with the new triumvirate ruling
Indonesia in 1967: Suharto, Foreign Minister Adam Malik, and the Sultan of
Jogjakarta, who served as minister for economics and finance. The report also
rejoices in the outlawing of the PKI, but states it “retains a significant
following in East and Central Java,” where Ann Dunham Soetoro would largely
concentrate her later efforts on behalf of USAID, the World Bank, and the Ford
Foundation, all front activities for the CIA to “win the hearts and minds” of
the Javanese farmers and artisans.

A CIA Intelligence Memorandum, formerly Secret and dated July 23, 1966,
clearly sees the Muslim Nahdatul Ulama party {NU), the largest party in
Indonesia and Muslim, as a natural ally of the United States and the Suharto
regime. The report states that helped Suharto put down the Communists in the
post-coup time frame, especially where the NU was strongest: East Java, where
Obama’s mother would concentrate her activities, and North Sumatra and parts of
Borneo. An April 29, 1966, formerly Secret CIA Intelligence Memorandum on the
PKI states: “Moslem extremists in many instances outdid the army in hunting down
and murdering members of the party [PKI] and its front groups.”

Dunham and Barry Soetoro in Jakarta and USAID front
activities

Dunham dropped out of the University of Hawaii in 1960 while pregnant with
Barack Obama. Barack Obama Sr. left Hawaii in 1962 to study at Harvard. Dunham
and Obama divorced in 1964. In the fall of 1961, Dunham enrolled at the
University of Washington while caring for her infant son. Dunham was re-enrolled
at the University of Hawaii from 1963 to 1966. Lolo Soetoro, who Dunham married
in March 1965, departed Hawaii for Indonesia on July 20, 1965, some three months
prior to the CIA’s coup against Sukarno. Soetoro, who served Suharto as an Army
colonel, was clearly called back from the CIA-connected East-West Center to
assist in the coup against Sukarno, one that would eventually cost the lives of
some one million Indonesian citizens. It is a history that President Obama would
like the press to ignore, which it certainly did during the 2008 primary and
general election.

In 1967, after arriving in Indonesia with Obama, Jr., Dunham began teaching
English at the American embassy in Jakarta, which also housed one of the largest
CIA stations in Asia and had significant satellite stations in Surabaya in
eastern Java and Medan on Sumatra. Jones left as East-West Center chancellor in
1968.

In fact, Obama’s mother was teaching English for the U.S. Agency for
International Development (USAID), which was a major cover for CIA activities in
Indonesia and throughout Southeast Asia, especially in Laos, South Vietnam, and
Thailand. The USAID program was known as Lembaga Pendidikan Pembinaan
Manajemen. Obama’s mother, painted as a free spirit and a “sixties
child” by President Obama and people who claimed they knew her in Hawaii
and Indonesia, had a curriculum vitae in Indonesia that contradicts the
perception that Ann Dunham Soetoro was a “hippy.”

Dunham Soetoro’s Russian language training at the University of Hawaii may
have been useful to the CIA in Indonesia. An August 2, 1966,
formerly Secret memorandum from the National Security Council’s Executive
Secretary Bromley Smith states that, in addition to Japan, Western Europe,
Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, and the Philippines, the Suharto coup was
welcomed by the Soviet Union and its Eastern European allies because its created
a non-aligned Indonesia that “represents an Asian counterweight to Communist
China.” Records indicate that a number of CIA agents posted in Jakarta before
and after the 1965 coup were, like Dunham Soetoro, conversant in Russian.

Dunham Soetoro worked for the elitist Ford Foundation, World Bank, Asian
Development Bank, Bank Rakyat (the majority government-owned People’s Bank of
Indonesia), and the CIA-linked USAID while she lived in Indonesia and later,
Pakistan.

USAID was involved in a number of CIA covert operations in Southeast Asia.
The February 9, 1971, Washington Star reported that USAID officials in Laos were
aware that rice supplied to the Laotian Army by USAID was being re-sold to North
Vietnamese army divisions in the country. The report stated that the U.S.
tolerated the USAID rice sales to the North Vietnamese since the Laotian Army
units that sold the rice found themselves protected from Communist Pathet Lao
and North Vietnamese attack. USAID and the CIA also used the supply of rice
to force Laotian Meo tribesmen to support the United States in the war against
the Communists. USAID funds programmed for civilians injured in the war in Laos
and public health care were actually diverted for military purposes.

In 1971, the USAID-funded Center for Vietnamese Studies at Southern Illinois
University in Carbondale was accused of being a CIA front. USAID-funded projects
through the Midwest Universities Consortium for International Activities (MUCIA)
— comprising the Universities of Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Indiana and
Michigan State — were accused of being CIA front projects, including those for
“agricultural education” in Indonesia, as well as other “projects” in
Afghanistan, Mali, Nepal, Nigeria, Thailand, and South Vietnam. The charge
was made in 1971, the same year that Ann Dunham was working for USAID in
the country.

In a July 10, 1971, New York Times report, USAID and the CIA
were accused of “losing” $1.7 billion appropriated for the Civil Operations
and Revolutionary Development Support (CORDS) program in South Vietnam. CORDS
was part of the CIA’s Operation Phoenix program, which involved CIA
assassination and torture of South Vietnamese village elders and Buddhist
clerics. USAID money was also directed to the CIA’s proprietary airline in
Southeast Asia, Air America. In Thailand, USAID funds for the Accelerated Rural
Development Program in Thailand were actually masking a CIA anti-Communist
counter-insurgency operation. USAID funds programmed for public works projects
in East Pakistan in 1971 were used for East Pakistan’s
military fortifications on its border with India, in the months before the
outbreak of war with India, in contravention of U.S. law that prohibited USAID
money for military purposes.

In 1972, USAID administrator Dr. John Hannah admitted to Metromedia News that
USAID was being used as a cover for CIA covert operations in Laos. Hannah only
admitted to Laos as a USAID cover for the CIA. However, it was also reported
that USAID was being used by the CIA in Indonesia, Philippines, South Vietnam,
Thailand, and South Korea. USAID projects in Southeast Asia had to be approved
by the Southeast Asian Development Advisory Group (SEADAG), an Asia Society
group that was, in fact, answerable to the CIA.

The U.S. Food for Peace program, jointly administered by USAID and the
Department of Agriculture, was found in 1972 to be used for military purposes in
Cambodia, South Korea, Turkey, South Vietnam, Spain, Taiwan, and Greece. In
1972, USAID funneled aid money only to the southern part of North Yemen, in
order to aid North Yemeni forces against the government of South Yemen, then
ruled by a socialist government opposed to U.S. hegemony in the region.

One of the entities affiliated with the USAID work in Indonesia was the Asia
Foundation, a 1950s creation formed with the help of the CIA to oppose the
expansion of communism in Asia. The East-West Center guest house in Hawaii was
funded by the Asia Foundation. The guest house is also where Barack Obama Sr.
first stayed after his airlift from Kenya to Hawaii, arranged by the one of the
CIA’s major agents of influence in Africa, Mboya.

Dunham would also travel to Ghana, Nepal, Bangladesh, India, and Thailand
working on micro-financing projects. In 1965, Barack Obama Sr. returned to Kenya
from Harvard, with another American wife. The senior Obama linked up with his
old friend and the CIA’s “golden boy” Mboya and other fellow Luo
politicians. The CIA station chief in Nairobi from 1964 to 1967 was Philip
Cherry. In 1975, Cherry was the CIA station chief in Dacca, Bangladesh. Cherry
was linked by the then-U.S. ambassador to Bangladesh, Eugene Booster, to the
1975 assassination of Bangladesh’s first president, Sheikh Mujibur
Rahman, and members of his family.

The hit on “Sheikh Mujib” and his family was reportedly ordered by
then-Secretary of State Henry Kissinger. Bangladesh was also on the micro- and
macro-financing travel itinerary of CIA-linked Ann Dunham.

CIA banking and Hawaii

Meanwhile, Dunham Soetoro’s mother, Madelyn Dunham, who raised young Obama
when he returned to Hawaii in 1971 while his mother stayed in Indonesia, was the
first female vice president at the Bank of Hawaii in Honolulu. Various CIA front
entities used the bank. Madelyn Dunham handled escrow accounts used to make CIA
payments to U.S.-supported Asian dictators like Philippines President Ferdinand
Marcos, South Vietnamese President Nguyen van Thieu, and President Suharto in
Indonesia. In effect, the bank was engaged in money laundering for the CIA to
covertly prop up its favored leaders in the Asia-Pacific region.

One of the CIA’s major money laundering fronts in Honolulu was the firm of
Bishop, Baldwin, Rewald, Dillingham & Wong (BBRDW). After the CIA allowed
the firm to collapse in 1983  amid charges that BBRDW was merely a
Ponzi scheme, Senator Daniel Inouye of the US Senate Intelligence Committee said
the CIA’s role in the firm “wasn’t significant.” It would later be revealed
that Inouye, who was one of the late Alaska Senator Ted Stevens’s best
friends in the Senate, was lying. In fact, BBRDW was involved heavily in
funding covert CIA programs throughout Asia, including economic espionage
against Japan, providing arms for Afghan mujaheddin guerrillas in their war
against the Soviets and covertly supplying weapons to Taiwan. One of BBRDW’s
principals was John C. “Jack” Kindschi, who, before he retired in 1981, was the
CIA station chief in Honolulu. BBRDW’s chairman Ron Rewald had a counterfeit
college degree certificate provided for the wall of his office by the CIA’s
forgery experts and his name was inserted in university records as an
alumnus.

A false history for BBRDW was concocted by the CIA claiming the firm had
operated in Hawaii since it was a territory. President Obama is currently
plagued by allegations that he has fake college and university
transcripts, a phony social security number issued in Connecticut, and other
padded resume items. Did Hawaii’s fake BBRDW documents portend today’s
questions about Obama’s past?

BBRDW conducted its business in the heart of Honolulu’s business district,
where the Bank of Hawaii was located and where Obama grandmother Madelyn
Dunham ran the escrow accounts. The bank would handle much of BBRDW’s covert
financial transactions.

Obama/Soetoro and the “years of living dangerously” in
Jakarta

It is clear that Dunham Soetoro and her Indonesian husband, President Obama’s
step-father, were closely involved in the CIA’s operations to steer Indonesia
away from the Sino-Soviet orbit during the “years of living dangerously” after
the overthrow of Sukarno. WMR has discovered that some of the CIA’s top case
officers were assigned to various official and non-official cover assignments in
Indonesia during this time frame, including under the cover of USAID, the Peace
Corps, and the U.S. Information Agency (USIA).

One of the closest CIA contacts for Suharto was former CIA Jakarta embassy
officer Kent B. Crane. Crane was so close to Suharto after “retiring” from
the CIA, he was reportedly one of the only “private” businessmen given an
Indonesian diplomatic passport by Suharto’s government. Crane’s company, the
Crane Group, was involved in supplying small arms to the military forces of the
United States, Indonesia, and other nations. A foreign policy adviser to Vice
President Spiro Agnew, Crane was later nominated as U.S. ambassador to Indonesia
by President Ronald Reagan but the nomination was dead-on-arrival because of
Crane’s dubious links to Suharto. The ambassadorship would instead go to John
Holdridge, a close colleague of Kissinger. Holdridge was succeeded in Jakarta by
Paul Wolfowitz.

Suharto’s cronies, who included Mochtar and James Riady of the Lippo Group,
would later stand accused of funneling over $1 million of illegal foreign
contributions to Bill Clinton’s 1992 presidential campaign.

President Obama has twice postponed official state visits to Indonesia,
perhaps fearful of the attention such a trip would bring to the CIA connections
of his mother and Indonesian step-father.

In the 1970s and 80s, Dunham was active in micro-loan projects for the Ford
Foundation,  the CIA-linked East-West Center, and USAID in Indonesia.
One of the individuals assigned to the U.S. embassy and helped barricade the
compound during a violent anti-U.S. student demonstration during the 1965
Suharto coup against Sukarno was Dr. Gordon Donald, Jr. Assigned to the
embassy’s Economic Section, Donald was responsible for USAID micro-financing for
Indonesian farmers, the same project that Dunham Soetoro would work on
for USAID in the 1970s, after her USAID job of teaching English in
Indonesia. In a 1968 book, “Who’s Who in the CIA,” published in West
Berlin, Donald is identified as a CIA officer who was also assigned to Lahore,
Pakistan, where Dunham would eventually live for five years in the Hilton
International Hotel while working on microfinancing for the Asian
Development Bank.

Another “Who’s Who in the CIA” Jakarta alumnus is Robert F. Grealy, who later
became the director for international relations for the Asia-Pacific for J P
Morgan Chase and a director for the American-Indonesian Chamber of Commerce. J P
Morgan Chase’s CEO Jamie Dimon is being mentioned as a potential replacement for
Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, whose father, Peter Geithner, was the Ford
Foundation’s Asia grant-selector who funneled the money to Ann Dunham’s
Indonesian projects.

CIA Black Projects and Hawaii

While in Pakistan, Dunham’s son Barack visited her in 1980 and 1981. Obama
visited Karachi, Lahore, and Hyderabad, India during his south Asia visits. It
was during the time period that the CIA was beefing up its anti-Soviet
operations in Afghanistan from Pakistan.

A January 31, 1958, heavily-redacted formerly Secret NOFORN [no foreign
dissemination] memorandum for CIA Director Allen Dulles from the Deputy
Assistant Director of the CIA for Research and Reports [name redacted] reports
on a fact-finding mission to the Far East, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East
from November 17 through December 21, 1957.

The CIA Office of Research and Reports (ORR) chief reports a meeting with the
staff of retired Army General Jesmond Balmer, a senior CIA official in Hawaii,
about requests by the Commander-in-Chief Pacific (CINCPAC) for “a number of
detailed, time-consuming research studies.” The ORR chief then reports about a
CIA “survey of students at the University of Hawaii who have both Chinese
language and research ability.” The ORR chief also reports that at a South-East
Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO) Counter Subversion Seminar at Baguio,
Philippines held from November 26-29, 1957, the Economic Subcommittee discussed
an “economic development fund” to combat “Sino-Soviet Bloc subversive activities
in the area and a consideration of possible counter-measures which might be
employed.”

The Thailand and Philippines delegations were pushing hard for U.S. funding
for an economic development fund, which may have provided the impetus for later
USAID projects in the region, including those with which Peter
Geithner and Obama’s mother were intimately involved.

Although CIA geo-political covert operations at the University of Hawaii are
well-documented, the agency’s darker side of research and MK-UKTRA type
operations has not generally been associated with the University of
Hawaii.

A series of formerly Confidential CIA memoranda, dated May 15, 1972, points
to the involvement of both the Defense Department’s Advanced Research Projects
Agency (ARPA), the CIA, and the University of Hawaii in the CIA’s behavioral
science program. The memos are signed by then-Deputy Director of the CIA Bronson
Tweedy, the chief of the Intelligence Community’s Program Review
Group (PRG) [name redacted], and CIA Director Richard Helms. Thesubject of the
memos is “ARPA Supported Research Relating to Intelligence Product,” The
memo from the PRG chief discusses a conference held on May 11, 1972, attended by
Lt. Col. Austin Kibler, ARPA’s Director of Behavioral Research. Kibler was the
chief for ARPA research into behavior modification and remote viewing. Others
mentioned in the PRG chief’s memo include CIA Deputy Director for Intelligence
Edward Proctor, the CIA Deputy Director for Science and Technology Carl Duckett,
and Director of the Office of National Estimates John Huizenga.

In 1973, after CIA Director James Schlesinger ordered a review of all CIA
programs, the CIA developed a set of documents on various CIA programs
collectively called the “Family Jewels.” Most of these documents were released
in 2007 but it was also revealed that Dr. Sidney Gottlieb, the CIA’s director of
MKULTRA, the agency’s behavior modification, brainwashing, and drug testing
component, had been ordered by Helms, before he resigned as CIA director, to be
destroyed. Duckett, in one memo from Ben Evans of the CIA to CIA Director
William Colby, dated May 8, 1973, conveys that he “thinks the Director
would be ill-advised to say he is acquainted with this program,” meaning
Gottlieb’s drug testing program under MKULKTRA.

Senior Gerald Ford administration officials, including Chief of Staff Dick
Cheney and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, ensured that after the production
of the “Family Jewels” documents, no CIA revelations were made about CIA
psychological behavior-altering programs, including MKULTRA and Project
ARTICHOKE.

The May 15, 1972, set of memos appears to be related to the CIA’s
initial research, code named SCANATE, in 1972 into psychic warfare,
including the use of psychics for purposes of remote viewing espionage and mind
control. The memo discussed Kibler from ARPA and “his contractor,” which
was later discovered to be Stanford Research Institute (SRI) in Menlo Park,
California.

In a memo from CIA Director Helms to, among others, Duckett, Huizenga,
Proctor, and the Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, which later
inherited reote viewing from the CIA under the code name GRILL FLAME, Helms
insists that ARPA had been supporting research into behavioral science and its
potential for intelligence production ”for a number of years” at “M.I.T.,
Yale, the University of Michigan, U.C.L.A., and University of
Hawaii and other institutions as well as in corporate research
facilities.”

The role of the University of Hawaii in CIA psych-war operations continues to
this day.  The chief of research for DIA’s Defense
Counterintelligence and Human Intelligence Center (DCHC) Behavioral Sciences
Program, Dr. Susan Brandon, who was reportedly involved in a covert program run
by the American Psychological Association (APA), Rand Corporation, and the CIA
to employ “enhanced interrogation” techniques, including sleep and sensory
deprivation, intense pain, and extreme isolation on prisoners
held at Bagram airbase in Afghanistan and other “black prisons,” received
her PhD in Psychology from the University of Hawaii. Brandon also served as
assistant director of Social, Behavioral, and Educational Sciences for the
Office of Science and Technology Policy in the George W. Bush White
House.

The CIA’s close connections to the University of Hawaii continued to the
late 1970s, when the former President of the University of Hawaii from 1969 to
1974, Harlan Cleveland, was a special
invited speaker at CIA headquarters on May 10, 1977. Cleveland served as
Assistant Secretary of State for International Organization Affairs from 1961 to
1965 and Lyndon Johnson’s ambassador to NATO from 1965 to 1969 before taking up
his position at the University of Hawaii.

A CIA Director of Training memo dated May 21, 1971, reports on the active
recruitment of a U.S. Marine officer who was entering graduate school at the
University of Hawaii.

The Family of Obama and the CIA

There are volumes of written material on the CIA backgrounds of George H. W.
Bush and CIA-related activities by his father and children, including former
President George W. Bush. Barack Obama, on the other hand, cleverly
masked his own CIA connections as well as those of his
mother, father, step-father, and grandmother (there is very little known about
Obama’s grandfather, Stanley Armour Dunham, who was supposedly in the furniture
business in Hawaii after serving in Europe during World War II). Presidents
and vice presidents do not require security background checks, unlike other
members of the federal government, to hold office. That job is left up to the
press. In 2008, the press failed miserably in its duty to vet the man who would
win the White House. With the ties of Obama’s parents to the University of
Hawaii and its links to MKULTRA and ARTICHOKE, a
nagging question remains: Is Barack Obama a real-life “Manchurian
Candidate?”

(Continued below)

PART 3: August 19, 2010 — SPECIAL REPORT. The Story of Obama: All in
the Company — Add one more Obama family member to the CIA payroll. Part
III

WMR previously reported on the CIA links of President Obama’s mother,
father, step-father, grandmother to the CIA. Not much is known about
Obama’s grandfather, Stanley Armour Dunham, who Obama mistakenly referred
to as “his father” in two speeches, one recently to the Disabled American
Veterans.

What is officially known about Stanley Armour Dunham is that he served with
the 9th Air Force in Britain and France prior to and after the D-Day invasion.
After the war, Dunham and his wife, Madelyn and his daughter Stanley Ann —
Obama’s mother — moved to Berkeley, California; El Dorado, Kansas; Seattle; and
Honolulu. Armour Dunham is said to have worked for a series of furniture
stores.

Obama maintains that his mother and father first met in a Russian-language
class at the University of Hawaii in 1959. However, a photograph has emerged of
Stanley Armour welcoming Barack Obama, Sr., complete with traditional
Hawaiian welcoming leis, from Kenya. Obama, Sr. was the only Kenyan student
airlifted to Hawaii as part of the CIA-inspired Airlift Africa project that saw
Obama and 279 other students from British eastern and southern African colonies
brought to the United States for college degrees prior to their homelands
gaining independence from Britain. The students were selected by Kenyan
nationalist leader Tom Mboya who would later conduct surveillance for the CIA at
pan-African nationalist meetings. Mboya was particularly focused on two African
leaders who were seen as too close to the Sino-Soviet bloc, Kwame Nkrumah of
Ghana and Sekout Toure of Guinea.

Stanley Armour Dunham with Barack Obama, Sr. at welcoming ceremony to
Hawaii. The presence of two US Navy personnel indicates the plane may have
landed at Hickam Air Force Base, an indication of the U.S. government’s and
CIA’s role in the Airlift Africa project.

The photograph of Armour Dunham with Barack Obama, Sr., indicates that the
“furniture salesman” in Hawaii was, in fact, working with a CIA-funded project
to rapidly educate aspiring politicians to serve in post-independence African
governments to counter Soviet- and Chinese-backed political leaders in the
region.

There is a strong reason to believe that Armour Dunham worked in the 1950s
for the CIA in the Middle East. An FBI file on Armour Dunham existed but
the bureau claimed it destroyed the file on May 1, 1997. Considering the sour
relations between the FBI and CIA during the Cold War, it is likely that Armour
Dunham was being monitored by FBI director J. Edgar Hoover in the same manner as
a number of other CIA officials and agents were being surveilled. Similarly, the
pre-1968 passport records of Obama’s mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, were destroyed
by the State Department.

There is a photographic clue that the Dunhams may have been assigned by the
CIA to Beirut, Lebanon in the early 1950s. A photograph of Obama’s mother and
grandparents has emerged that shows Stanley Ann Dunham wearing what may be a
school uniform with the insignia of “NdJ,” which stands for the College
Notre-Dame de Jamhour, a private Jesuit Catholic French language school
in Beirut, Lebanon. Graduates of the school include three former presidents
of Lebanon, Amine Gemayel, Bashir Gemayel, and Charles Helou, all of whom
maintained close relations with Washington.

Did Obama’s mother [left] go to a private school in Lebanon in the
early 1950s while her father [middle] worked for the CIA in Beirut?

There is also the curious nature of President Obama’s Social Security Number,
issued in Connecticut, a state where there is no other evidence of his ever
being a resident. Adding to the mystery is a New York City address for a
“male” named Stanley Ann Dunham,  235 E. 40th St Apt 8F, New York NY
10016-1747. The address is a few blocks away from the address of the Ford
Foundation. Ann Dunham did work briefly in New York for the Ford Foundation.

On August 9, 2010, WMR reported, “In a December 19, 1971, article
in the Boston Globe by Dan Pinck, [a historian and
former OSS officer] titled ‘Is everyone in the CIA?’ it is alleged that
identifying US Agency for International Development (USAID) officers as CIA
agents was a ‘reasonably accurate accounting of certain leading operatives and
associates of the CIA.’ President Obama’s mother, Stanley Ann Dunham Soetoro
worked for USAID in rural Java in Indonesia. Pinck’s article was a review
of a 1968 book, ‘Who’s Who in the CIA’ published in Berlin.”

WMR has obtained a rare copy of “Who’s Who in the CIA,” from England. The
book, published in West Berlin in 1968, lists some 3,000 CIA agents and
agents-of-influence around the world.

The book also contains a reference to one CIA operative whose area of primary
place of operation was Mercer Island, Washington. He was retired Air Force
General Don Zabriskie Zimmermann, who was the Chief Engineer for the Boeing
Company in Seattle. Before retiring from the Air Force, Zimmermann was the
Air Force Assistant Deputy Chief of Staff for Development in Foreign
Countries. Ann Stanley Dunham reportedly graduated from Mercer Island High
School in 1960 and met Obama later that year in a Russian language class
after  her parents moved to Hawaii. Stanley Ann’s mother, Madelyn Dunham,
worked at a Boeing plant in Wichita, Kansas during World War II.

The book lists the number of CIA agents in countries during the 1950s and 60s
where Obama’s father, mother, step-father Lolo Soetori, and allegedly, his
grandmother and grandfather worked:

Indonesia

Jakarta   64

Surabaya  12

Medan  8

Hollandia  1

Kenya

Nairobi  19

Mombassa  2

Lebanon

Beirut  61     (including one agent also assigned to
Jakarta, Lahore, and Karachi and another assigned to Lahore)

Hawaii

Honolulu   6  (one agent also assigned to Canton Island and
another was fluent in French, Stanley Ann Dunham spoke French, Urdu, Bahasa
Indonesian, and she studied Javanese at the University of Hawaii, in addition to
Russian).

Outstanding article but you don’t have to go that far. Obama Jr. was born
at birth, a British Subject under both US and British Laws as Obama Sr. was
DOMICILED in Kenya and only in the US temporarily. Check the 14th amendment
which says you have to be under US jurisdiction to have a baby be a US
citizen. Obama is NOT a natural born citizen, he was a British
Subject.

yes, there are more important issues, but lets face it…..many of them would
become mote to impeach this scum for being an impostor!

Certainly opened a can of worms with this but it is all smoke and

If nothing else, this just goes to further illustrate that Barry was
groomed from the moment of birth to be a CIA/banker puppet. They always look
for those within their grasp who are easy to blackmail, just in case their
puppet decides not to go along with the program in the future (maybe they
learned their lesson from JFK). With all the skeletons in his closet, Barry
isn’t just on a short leash, they have him by the collar.

He will not disobey, and he may not even be mentally capable of doing
so.

When he said he had more important things to do I thought he meant play
more golf and take more vacations, silly me.

How about the fact that the world is being contaminated at an accelarted
rate by radiation. Or the fact we don’t really have a legitmate
government.
