AP Photo Of Barack Obama's School Registration In Indonesia As Barry Soetero And As Indonesian Citizen (UPDATED)

Topics: Political News and commentaries

I'm not making any charges or implying any judgement here, just putting up this AP Photo by Tatan Syuflana, along with the commentary from a post at Free Republic:

This registration document, made available on Jan. 24, 2007, by the Fransiskus Assisi school in Jakarta, Indonesia, shows the registration of Barack Obama under the name Barry Soetoro into the Catholic school made by his step-father, Lolo Soetoro. The document lists Barry Soetoro as a Indonesian citizen, born on August 4, 1961 in Honolulu, and shows his Muslim step-father listed the boy's religion as Islam.(AP Photo/ Tatan Syuflana)
Let's just call this "food for thought." and of "possible interest."

Might I also add that I make no claim or assertion as to its validity.

Update: Pamela Geller at Atlas Shrugs writes that Hillary's folks are absolutely dizzy over this piece over at TexasDarlin: *Breaking* Photo Documents Barry Soetoro: Indonesian Citizen, Muslim Religion.

This AP photo is compelling evidence of the following assertions, which have been set forth on this blog (TexasDarlin):

1. Barack Obama had Indonesian citizenship

2. Barack Obama had the legal name Barry Soetoro

3. Barack Obama was a Muslim, despite his "fight the smears" claim that he never has been. (see new story that we just posted on this topic).

In addition, it means that Barack Obama apparently lied to the Illinois Supreme Court when asked to provide former names, according to this Attorney's Registration Record:

Pamela says this isn't really news, that she ran this back in January 2007:

Barack Hussein Obama was registered under the name "Barry Soetoro" serial number 203 and entered the Franciscan Asisi Primary School on 1 January 1968 and sat in class 1B

School documents listed Barry Soetoro as an Indonesian citizen born in Honolulu, Hawaii on 4 August 1961. Barry's religion was listed as Islam. School documents further record Barry's father as "L Soetoro Ma" who worked as an official of the Director General's office in the TNI Topography division of the Indonesian Army.

Barry attended the Franciscan Asisi Primary School for three years until class 3 afterwards his family moved house from H Ramir Street to Dempo Street where he attended Besuki Primary School for one year before departing to Hawaii.

Classmate Rony Amir describes a young Barry Soetoro as enjoying playing football and marbles and of being a very devout Muslim.

"Barry was previously quite religious in Islam. His birth father, Barack Hussein Obama was a Muslim economist from Kenya. Before marrying Ann Dunham, Hussein Obama was married to a woman from Kenya who had seven children. All the relatives of Barry's father were very devout Muslims"

"We previously often asked him to the prayer room close to the house." If he was wearing a sarong he looked funny , said Rony Amir, Barry's classmate when he lived on H Ramli street in Menteng, Jakarta."

Is their more to come of all this? Pamela's piece notes that the Indonesian media have been flooded with accounts of Obama's childhood Islamic studies, some describing him as a religious Muslim. Has the anointed one been lying to even his own party?

Harry, I'm not sure whether or not you say that in jest. The AP is trusted, sure, but not by center-right bloggers. Are they not infamous for their biased reporting and photoshopped images?
