After looking at the picture of Obama I never noticed the flaps around his face. Obama is skinny and he should not have that kind of flap on his face. This flap goes under his lips where you can see the poor plastic surgery sutures, These markings are of a surgery on his face. This is not the real Obama .The real Obama is dead, This man is a Muslim from Saudi Arabia . This is why this man called Obama bowed and kissed the ring of his Saudi King

Saudi Arabia: Sharia Court Sentences Women To Be Lashed For Driving…
Wahhabi justice.
(BBC) — A court in Saudi Arabia has sentenced a woman to 10
lashes for breaking the country’s ban on female drivers.
The woman, identified only as Shema, was found guilty of driving in Jeddah in
July.
Women2drive, which campaigns for women to be allowed to drive in Saudi
Arabia, says she has already lodged an appeal.
In recent months, scores of women have driven vehicles in Saudi cities in an
effort to put pressure on the monarchy to change the law.
The sentence comes two days after the Saudi leader King Abdullah announced
women would be allowed to vote for the first time in 2015.
Two other women are due to appear in court later this year on similar
charges, correspondents say.
World headlines blared on Monday that women in Saudi Arabia had been granted the right to
vote. This is exactly what the kingdom’s hard-line Muslim rulers wanted. It
diverts attention from the fact that women will still be banned from voting in
this week’s elections.
On Sunday, Saudi King Abdullah decreed that
women would be able to participate and run in local elections in 2015. They also
would be allowed to participate in the advisory Shura Council, whose 150 members are appointed
by the king. The decree, however, is mostly
important for what it does not say, which is that women are still banned from
voting in the elections scheduled for Thursday. This election was originally
scheduled for 2009 but purportedly was delayed for two years so the government
could review the question of women’s suffrage. The decision to continue the ban
on women voting in the current election cycle came down from the Ministry of Municipal
and Rural Affairs in March, making the
king’s announcement nothing more than a public-relations ploy.
The royal fiat doesn’t actually mention voting. It says, “Women are entitled
to nominate themselves for membership in municipal councils, and they are also
entitled to participate in the nomination of candidates, according to the
parameters of the true law.” It states women would be able to participate “in
the Shura Council as members in the next
round, according to legal parameters.” Caveats about legal parameters refer to
enabling rules to come later from Saudi ministries, which aren’t guaranteed to
cooperate with alacrity. The next election could be delayed like the current
one, or the decree could be annulled at the
king’s whim at any time.
Voting in the kingdom is hardly empowering for anyone. Elections are only
held at the local level in the 178 Saudi municipalities while national policy is
tightly controlled by the palace. There is no concept of individual rights or
freedom of expression as Westerners understand them, and individuals are
subordinated to the strictures of Shariah law.
In Jeddah on Sunday, female activist Najalaa Harrir was questioned by
authorities for the crime of driving after being videotaped behind the wheel of
a car. Driving restrictions have become a symbol of the countless indignities
and discriminatory laws to keep Saudi women down. Despite a few democratic
trappings, Saudi Arabia is still a hard-line
Islamic autocracy where women have to bow, fully covered, to “the will of Allah”
- and Abdullah.
This series
was developed in order to collate some—by no means all—of the foulest instances
of Muslim persecution of Christians that surface each month. It serves two
purposes:
Intrinsically,
to document that which the mainstream media
does not: habitual, if not chronic, Muslim persecution of
Christians.
Instrumentally,
to show that such persecution is not "random," but systematic and
interrelated—that it is ultimately rooted in a Sharia inspired
worldview.
As will
become evident, whatever the anecdote of persecution, it typically fits under a
specific theme, including hatred for churches and other Christian symbols;
sexual abuse of Christian women; forced conversions to Islam; apostasy and
blasphemy laws; theft and plunder in lieu of jizya; overall expectations for
Christians to behave like cowed dhimmis (second-class citizens); and simple
violence. Oftentimes it is a combination of the aforementioned.
Because
these accounts of persecution span different ethnicities, languages, and
locales—from Morocco in the west, to India in the east, and even throughout the
West, wherever there are Muslims—it is clear that one thing alone binds them:
Islam—whether the strict application of Sharia, or the supremacist culture borne
of it.
Categorized
by theme, August's batch of Muslim persecution of Christians includes (but is
not limited to) the following anecdotes, listed according to theme and in
alphabetical order by country, not necessarily severity of
atrocity:
Attacks on
Christian Symbols: Churches and Bibles
Indonesia: Two
churches were set
aflame; officials downplayed these atrocities by arguing that
the buildings were "only made of board" and not real churches. A mayor also
proclaimed that
churches cannot be built on streets with Muslim names, even as Muslim majority
regions reject the
building of any churches.
Iran: Officials
launched a Bible burning
campaign, confiscating and destroying some 7,000 Bibles, many
publicly burned. Likening their tiny Christian minority to the "Taliban and
parasites," the regime also "cracked down" on Christians (who
make up less than 1% of the entire population), arresting many, the whereabouts
of which remain unknown.
Iraq: Two
churches were bombed: the
first damaged the church and wounded 23; the second damaged
the church (a third church was targeted but the bomb was defused before going
off).
Nigeria: Two
churches were bombed, including
a Baptist church no longer in use due to
previous Muslim attacks; when officials arrested Islamist leaders, a third
Catholic church was torched.
Apostasy
and Forced Conversions
Eritrea: It was
revealed that at least eight Christians have
died in prisons, most under severe conditions and torture,
simply for refusing to recant Christianity.
India: A female
who was formerly stripped and
beaten by a Muslim mob for converting to Christianity,
continues to receive severe threats to return to Islam or die; likewise, Muslims
held three Christian women "threatening to beat and burn them alive if they
continued worshipping Christ."
Iran: A
Christian pastor in Iran remains behind
bars, where he is being tortured and awaits execution for
refusing to recant Christianity.
Malaysia: Religious
policeraided a
church when they "found evidence of proselytisation towards
Muslims" and "receiving information that
there were Muslims who attended a breaking-of-fast event at the church"; a Facebook campaign
created to support the raid and to "prevent apostasy" has already drawn support
from 23,000 people.
Norway: A Muslim
convert to Christianity was tortured with
boiling water and told by fellow Muslim inmates "If you do not
return to Islam, we will kill you"; if deported, he risks death by stoning for
leaving Islam.
Pakistan: Muslims
openly abducted
a 14-year-old Christian girl at gunpoint saying she had to
convert to Islam; another Christian woman who was abducted,
drugged, and tortured for two years—all while being informed
she had converted to Islam—happily made her escape. In both cases, the police,
as usual, are siding with the Muslim
abductors. Most recently, two Christians returning from church were attacked by
Muslims and beaten with iron rods for refusing to convert to
Islam or pay "protection" (jizya) money.
Sudan: A 16 year old
Christian girl finally escaped from her Muslim kidnappers, who
"beat, raped and tried to force her to convert from Christianity to Islam";
whenever she tried to pray, she was beaten again and called an "infidel"; when
her mother went to the police, they told her to convert to Islam before they
returned her child.
Uganda: In
accordance to Islam's Hanafi School of law, a Muslim father lockedhis
14-year-old daughter in a room for several months without food or water, simply because she embraced Christianity;
when rescued, she weighed 44 pounds.
General
Oppression, Violence, and Murder of Christians
Bangladesh: Church
leaders, including an elderly pastor, were severely
beaten in a police station for protesting that Muslims had
illegally seized and occupied a Christian home. A previously tortured
Christian activist is in hiding in Honk Kong, even as his wife and children face
death threats from surrounding Muslims.
Egypt: Soon
after breaking their Ramadan fast, thousands of Muslims rampaged
a predominantly Christian village, firing automatic weapons, looting and
throwing Molotov Cocktails at several homes; they beat a priest, plundering and
torching his home; another Copt was murdered in his home, which was also
ransacked. Separately, a Copt was savagely attacked by seven Muslims in front of
a police station; he lost one
eye and required 20 stitches in his head. And girls leaving
church were sexually harassed by Muslim who hurled stones at the church
shattering five windows.
Nigeria: In what
is being called a "silent
killing," ten Christians were slain by Muslims seeking to
expunge Christianity from northern Nigeria; eyewitnesses insist that the army is assisting
and enabling the slayings.
Pakistan: A
Christian family consisting of 26 people, including women and children, lived in
slavery for over 30 years, forced to labor on a farm belonging
to a wealthy Muslim landowner; they only recently managed to regain their
freedom, through the aid of the Catholic Church. Separately, a Muslim
mob attacked a group of Christians watching a Jesus movie,
destroying the projector. A Christian man was beaten
unconscious for celebrating Independence Day, told by Muslims
"How can you celebrate when you are Christian? Convert to Islam if you want to
join the celebration."
Somalia: Al-Shabab
("the youth") is intentionally
preventing food aid from reaching the nation's miniscule
Christian minority: "Any Somali that the Islamists suspect to be a Christian, or
even a friend of Christians, does not receive any food aid."
Sudan: A "humanitarian
crisis is unfolding" in Sudan's border region where Christians
and their churches are being targeted in a systematic campaign of ethnic
cleansing by North Sudan's Islamist regime.
United
Kingdom: A Muslim
family was terrorized and
threatened with death because their daughter married a Christian, a crime according to Sharia.
Uzbekistan:
Authorities continue to pressure
churches and Christians, fabricating evidence to punish or
limit Christians' ability to practice their faith, and subjecting them to
excessive fines, false accusations, and confiscating their Christian
literature.
----
These were
just some of the stories of Christian suffering under Islam that made it to a
few non mainstream media last month.
Then there
are the countless atrocities that never make it to any media—the stories of
persistent, quiet misery that only the victims know—such as the recent
revelation that a 2-year-old girl
was savagely rapedin Pakistan because her Christian father
refused to convert to Islam: it took five years for this story to surface. How
many are the tales of woe that never surface?
Now, back
to your regular scheduled MSM programming on how the perpetually misunderstood
religion of Islam is really the "religion of peace"…
Is this back-door Shariah? Complaint cites New York
Attorney says problems not addressed by airline assurance it won't discriminate

The New York Port Authority has been asked to investigate what state and federal anti-discrimination laws might be violated by imposing anti-Jewish Islamic restrictions on passengers boarding flights to Jeddah from the publicly owned JFK Airport.
The request has been brought by a Washington attorney who first raised questions about Delta Air Lines and its new agreement to include Saudi Arabian Airlines in its Sky Team Alliance of airlines.
Saudi Arabia bars Jews and passengers with Israeli passports and Israeli stamps in their passports from boarding flights to the desert kingdom.
"In this respect, the impact of any discriminatory conduct would take place at JFK airport, and not just inside of Saudi Arabia," wrote attorney Jeffrey A. Lovitky in a recent letter to the agency. It's time to resist creeping Shariah! Pamela Geller's 'Stop the Islamization of America' tells you how – Autographed
WND has reported on the controversy since the issue first was raised by Lovitky.
Delta, which under the new agreement would facilitate flights from JFK and Dulles airports to Jeddah, has been accused of enabling or at least allowing illegal discrimination on U.S. soil.
Also banned would be items such as cross necklaces and Bibles.
Lovitky told WND he started raising the issue after finding out about the discriminatory practices at U.S. airports while making travel arrangements.
Delta recently tried to take itself out of the controversy by meeting with the Simon Wiesenthal Center and issuing a statement that it would not "request that customers declare their religious affiliation" and "would also not seek such information on behalf of any Sky Team partner or any airline."
Lovitky told WND that doesn't solve the violations.
"The letter [to the] Simon Wiesenthal Center was not satisfactory," he said. "I appreciate Delta's assurances that it will not discriminate against Jewish customers. However, the more important issue is whether Delta should even be in an alliance with an airline owned by the government of Saudi Arabia, which practices the most vicious forms of discrimination against women," he said.
"Additionally, I do not believe that it is appropriate for Delta to be in an alliance with Saudi Airlines, given the pervasive discrimination against Christians and Jews in Saudi Arabia," he told WND. "I believe that Delta should simply walk out of the SkyTeam Alliance the minute the Saudi Arabian Airlines walks in." Read the insiders' plans for America under Shariah, in "Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld That's Conspiring to Islamize America," autographed, from WND's Superstore.
He said the Saudi intolerance of Jews may be easier to understand if Americans thought of the restrictions as targeting another faith.
"I would ask your readers to put themselves in the position of a Christian passenger on a flight from Washington Dulles to Saudi Arabia to attend a business meeting. Let's assume that this passenger regularly carries with them a Bible when they travel overseas, as many passengers do. That passenger is essentially forced to abandon that Bible at Dulles Airport (or not take it to the airport in the first place), because it may be treated as a contraband item upon arrival in Riyadh or Jeddah. In this manner, the force and effect of these Saudi restrictions are felt by the passenger even while he or she is still on U.S. soil," he told WND.
WND calls to The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey asking about plans to respond to the letter did not generate a return telephone call.
In the letter, Lovitky pointed out that "gender and religious discrimination are prohibited by both state and federal laws, as well as by the rules of the Port Authority itself." He cited the airport's Rule 1(B)(1), which states, "Use of any area or portion of an Air Terminal in a manner contrary to law … may result in a withdrawal of permission to enter or remain in such air terminal by the Port Authority."
He noted that "Saudia flights directly benefit from tax exempt public financing at JFK airport through the servicing of its aircraft, gate areas, baggage operations, etc."
"The issue which must be addressed is whether tax exempt public financing is being used to service flights from which Jews are banned if they admit their religious affiliation, and from which non-Islamic religious materials are effectively excluded," he said.
"If the allegations of discrimination are correct, the Port Authority would be using public financing to facilitate a sectarian activity at the airport which directly supports one set of religious beliefs and purposefully excludes all others, in violation of the Establishment Clause of the U.S. Constitution," he said in the letter to the authority.
He said the government agency has a responsibility to investigate.
"Accordingly, I am requesting that the Port Authority obtain such assurances as are required from the Saudi government and Saudia to ensure that Saudia flights are being operated on a non-discriminatory basis," he wrote.
He cited as evidence U.S. Department of State warnings about Saudi Arabia that "the government prohibits the public practice of religions other than Islam. … Saudi customs authorities enforce strict regulations concerning importation into Saudi Arabia of [a]ny item that is held to be contrary to the tenets of Islam."
Further, he wrote, the lease agreement allowing Delta to operate at JFK "requires that Delta comply with certain federal and state statutes and regulations, including laws prohibiting discrimination."
Lovitky told WND he also has written the Saudi Arabian embassy about his concerns, as well as the Saudi airline directly. He did not get a response from either location, and the embassy was closed this week and no one was available to comment to WND.
He copied Roy W. Kienitz, U.S. undersecretary of transportation for policy, on the letter, in which he seeks assurances that Saudi Arabia will not treat women differently from men in its operations at JFK and Dulles, and will grant visas without discrimination based on religion.
The letter effectively put the federal government on notice that there is a problem with discrimination by the Saudi government operations inside the U.S.
Kienitz also did not respond to a WND request for comment.
Lovitky also told WND that Delta's promise simply isn't enough.
"I would call on Delta to terminate its affiliation with the SkyTeam alliance upon admission of Saudi Arabian Airlines in 2012, unless the kingdom provides written assurances that it will not discriminate against women, Christians and Jews in connection with their official polices," he wrote to Andrea Newman, a Delta vice president. The American Center for Law and Justice has called on the Federal Aviation Administration and Congress to investigate the relationship between Delta Air Lines and Saudi Arabian Airlines over the government-owned Saudi operation's discrimination against Jews.
And ACLJ chief Jay Sekulow noted that U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk, R-Ill., sent a letter to the FAA requesting a probe into the matter "to determine whether Delta Air Lines violated U.S. law or regulation and to ensure no U.S. citizen is denied their right to fly solely on the basis of their religion."
Delta in January 2011 boasted of working with Saudi Air in a "global airline alliance providing customers from member airlines access to an extensive global network with more destinations, more frequencies and more connectivity."
The ACLJ asked, "So why is this a problem? Simply put, Saudi Arabia (in addition to being a hub of terrorist financing and so radical that its religious police force girls to burn to death rather than escape a school fire without their abayas) is known to blatantly discriminate in its visa policies."
It continued, "Delta can't control Saudi Arabia's immigration policy, but it can control whether it does business with Saudi Arabia."
Lovitky said when he has gotten a response from anyone, it's been a brushoff.
Larry Klayman, the Washington attorney who founded Judicial Watch and now is of Freedom Watch USA, also is encouraging a boycott.
"It's incumbent on all Christians, Jews and people who find discrimination abhorrent to make it clear to Delta that they will not fly on the airline," he told WND, "until Delta withdraws from its alliance with Saudi Arabia.
"You have to wonder where the potential allies on the left such as Jesse Jackson, who have claimed to have experienced similar discrimination … why are they not speaking out. Where is the president, who endorsed the Ground Zero mosque, yet will not stand up for Christians and Jews."
"This is outrageous, repugnant and illegal," he said.
He said Delta has joined President Obama in "kowtowing" to "nefarious Muslims." His reference was to the famous image of Barack Obama greeting the Saudi king with a bow.
"Creeping Shariah? Now [it is] jetspeed Shariah. Hat's off to Delta. It looks like Delta will be the first Shariah-compliant airline in the United States," Catherine Grandy said.
Katz noted, "As a Jewish man, I might not be able to fly on Delta Air Lines in the future."
Fred Grandy told Katz that he spent time in Washington briefing members of Congress and other policy makers "on this kind of threat."
"This creeping Shariah, economic jihad, gets you everywhere you turn," Catherine Grandy said. "This is just not right. I'm sure this will be tested." Fred Grandy said there were several questions raised by the controversy, including would passengers continue to fly on Delta, what should the government do and the advance of Shariah in the United States.
"If this isn't one landing strip at a time, I don't know what is," he said.
Lovitky told WND that whatever discrimination the Saudis choose to enforce in their nation, it becomes a problem when Delta applies it to American citizens on American soil.
"Delta Air Lines acted in a purely voluntary manner in agreeing to this alliance with Saudi Airlines," he wrote in a letter asking the Delta board to act on the matter. "Accordingly, Delta has made itself responsible for ensuring that passengers on any flight jointly operated with Saudi Airlines will not be subject to discrimination on the basis of their gender, religion, or any other inappropriate grounds."
Saudi Arabia “broke the norms and manners of international relations” by carrying out the death sentence, President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono said. He added that he had lodged a protest with the Saudi government over Saturday’s execution of the Indonesian citizen for murder.
Press TV“I decided to apply a moratorium on sending Indonesian workers to Saudi Arabia, to be in effect on August 1, but starting from today, steps toward this have begun,” Yudhoyono was quoted as saying by AFP. Earlier this week Indonesia recalled its ambassador to Saudi Arabia in protest over the execution of the 54-year-old maid Ruyati binti Sapubi, who had been convicted of killing her Saudi employer. The Indonesian maid was executed by sword. Saudi officials then dangled her corpse from a helicopter to make sure the public could see the grotesque result of the execution. Indonesian officials say the maid had been severely abused by her employers. Twenty-three Indonesians currently face execution in Saudi Arabia, where people convicted of murder are beheaded in public. Riyadh has carried out 27 beheadings so far this year. There are more than one million Indonesian migrant workers in Saudi Arabia, most of them working as maids.
Saudi Columnist Princess Basma bint Saud bin Abd Al-Aziz Aal Saud Describes the Treatment of Women in Saudi Arabia as 'Slavery' and Says: Nobody Is Immune to the Winds of Change Sweeping the Arab Nation; 'We Must Grant Freedoms Before They Become Challenges'
Following are excerpts from an interview with Saudi columnist Princess Basma bin Saud bin Abd Al-Aziz Aal Saud. The interview aired on BBC Arabic TV on June 28, 2011:
"Punishments Should Be the Same For Men And Women.... [But] the Woman Is Always Punished... Within a System of Laws That Do Not, In Fact, Exist In Our Shari'a" Interviewer: "Your Royal Highness, you defend women's rights, and in your writings, you courageously cast light on the condition of Saudi women, demanding that they step up to the status they are worthy of. You said that 'slavery' is imposed upon Saudi women. Is this an accurate term?" Princess Basma bin Saud bin Abd Al-Aziz Aal Saud: "To say the least. Saudi women – and women in general in the Arab world – are subject to pressure that was not exerted upon them in the days of the Jahiliya, and even before." Interviewer: "Who exerts this pressure?" Princess Basma bin Saud bin Abd Al-Aziz Aal Saud: "Society, which inherited tribalism rather than Islamic customs. We are familiar with Islamic customs, and we return to the Koran in order to know our rights as Muslims – men and women alike.
"What is being practiced de facto in our Arab societies is a tribal legacy, not an Islamic one. What is permitted is clear, and what is forbidden is clear, and punishments should be the same for men and women.
"What we see today, however, is that the woman is always punished, the woman is treated with violence. Thus, our society becomes a violent society, because the woman who suffers violence is the one who raises the children. She raises men and women. What will become of these future generations, if they are raised by women who suffer violence and subjugation, within a system of laws that do not, in fact, exist in our shari'a?" Progress In Women's Status Under King Abdallah "Is Restricted To a Certain Group Of Women... The Elite" Interviewer: "But is this really the case? Didn't the Saudi woman make many achievements under King Abdallah and assume prominent positions? Take for example, Dr. Khawla [Al-Kuraya] and [Minister] Norah Al-Faiz. There are women academics and journalists – yourself included. Sometimes it seems that the condition of the Saudi woman is being exaggerated." Princess Basma bin Saud bin Abd Al-Aziz Aal Saud: "This is true of 1% of the women in Saudi Arabia. Is it fair and just to focus on 1% of the women, ignoring the other 99%? I have mentioned in several columns that the Saudi woman, under the rule of King Abdallah bin Abd Al-Aziz, whom I love with all my heart, and whom I have called, in several columns, 'the lion of the Arabian Peninsula'… Within five years, he brought about a qualitative leap in the status of women, the likes of which Saudi society had not witnessed for 50 years." Interviewer: "So there is progress…" Princess Basma bin Saud bin Abd Al-Aziz Aal Saud: "Yes, but this progress is restricted to a certain group of women, who appear in the media. This is the elite. But the rest of the women in society are subject to the laws that exist in our society as a whole. That is what I am talking about. I am talking about the Saudi woman who is not called Basma bint Saud bin Abd Al-Aziz, or Dr. Khawla, or other names that appear in the media. We live in an elitist society, and we have such opportunities because we were brought up in affluent families. The rest of the women do not enjoy such opportunities.
[…]
"The pioneer in changing these notions should be the Justice Ministry. When the government legislates laws, it means that there are problems addressed by these laws. But these laws reach a dead end at the Justice Ministry, and nothing else is done with them except to give them media exposure." "We Must Change the Culture of the Arab People" Interviewer: "What are the reasons for this?" Princess Basma bin Saud bin Abd Al-Aziz Aal Saud: "I asked them about the reasons, and they said: 'Bureaucracy.' So I asked who was responsible for the bureaucracy, and they said: 'Arab culture.' So I asked who was responsible for Arab culture, and they said: 'the Arab people.' Are we responsible for the state of our culture? And if we are responsible for it, we must step forward and say: 'We must change the culture of the Arab people.'
[…]
"The Committee for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice was founded by my late father, King Saud bin Abd Al-Aziz. The reason and purpose of its establishment were the same as those of Caliph Omar Ibn Al-Khattab, when he founded the Hesbah Committee, the mission of which was to prevent vice and to promote virtue. The concepts, however, have changed.
"What is prevention of vice, and what is promotion of virtue? In the days of the Caliph, they would go the markets, and would monitor the merchants and the prices, and would keep an eye out for bribery and administrative corruption. That was their mission." Interviewer: "What does it do today?" Princess Basma bin Saud bin Abd Al-Aziz Aal Saud: "When it was established by my late father, its goal was to monitor civil society, in order to enable the citizens to live honorably, without corruption or bribery. As fate would have it, this has turned into social pressure, which targets, first and foremost, the Saudi woman. They preoccupy themselves with her face and her gloves, with the mixing of the sexes, and with matters that have led to the terrible consequences that we see today in our society. We have turned into a society that is afraid of…" Interviewer: "Am I to understand that you support the demand to abolish this committee?" Princess Basma bin Saud bin Abd Al-Aziz Aal Saud: "I am in favor of reforming the way this committee operates and its goals, and of directing it [to supervise] the ministries of justice and social affairs – all the executives ministries – so that it can carry out the mission for which it was founded." Interviewer: "But [the public] seems to accept this Committee. It is supported by official bodies, and as you know, there is an historical agreement between the Aal Saud family and the religious establishment." Princess Basma bin Saud bin Abd Al-Aziz Aal Saud: "Yes, it has been this way since the formation of the union. The goal of that union was to reform society, not to destroy it. What we are seeing today is the destruction of society.
[…]
"Personally, I believe that if the Committee wants to be effective… Reforming this Committee is difficult, because it was established on foundations that are completely wrong…
"As for abolishing the Committee and establishing a new one, with careful planning of its goals, its officials, its authorities… In my column, I advised…" Interviewer: "You received advice too." Princess Basma bin Saud bin Abd Al-Aziz Aal Saud: "Yes. The advice I gave in my column was that the Committee should be headed by university graduates – professionals, sociologists, and psychologists, who would also have knowledge of the religious teachings, as sheiks and members of such a committee should be… This way, they could fulfill their mission properly.
"I was advised not to talk about these matters, so as not to get into things with which I am not as familiar as the authorities.
[…]
"These revolutions are the outcome of the pressures exerted on these peoples for something like 200 years, or at least since the beginning of World War I. Now the revolutions have become a force that knows nothing but the word 'freedom.'"[…] "Nobody Is Immune To the Seasonal Winds That Sweep Our Arab Nation... We Must Grant Freedoms Before They Become Challenges" Interviewer: "Is Saudi Arabia immune to the winds of change?" Princess Basma bin Saud bin Abd Al-Aziz Aal Saud: "Nobody is immune to the seasonal winds that sweep our Arab nation. Anyone who says we are immune is wrong. Everyone is vulnerable to this, and everyone should pay attention and should know that we must begin national dialogue, and not wait for the challenges to grow. We must grant freedoms before they become challenges." […]

Your and Ms. Fuddy’s refusal to provide access to the original birth certificate can be viewed as aiding and abetting to uttering of a forged document and elections fraud. Based on all of the above, I am respectfully requesting an administrative review of my appeal and granting access to the original document in question. If the appeal is not granted within 30 days, I will be taking further action.
On April 27, 2011, the White House released what it claimed was acertified copyof Obama’s long-form birth certificate on television and the internet. However, numerous document examiners, typesetting experts, and graphicsconsultantshave come forward to state in formal presentations and reports that the image presented to the public is a poorforgery.
“THIS IS TREASON”
by Sharon Rondeau
Why was this image created and supplied as a certified copy of Obama's original birth certificate? Why is the Kenyan government investigating Obama's possible birth there?
(Jun. 2, 2011) — Mr. Douglas Vogt is the author of several books which focus on science and religion as well as owner of Vector Associates, a book publishing company. He has also worked as an accountant and owned a typesetting company for 11 years. Regarding the image purported to be Obama’s birth certificate released to the public on April 27, 2011, Vogt states:
I have a unique background for analyzing this document. I owned a typesetting company for 11 years so I know type and form design very well. I currently own Archive Index Systems since 1993, which sells all types of document scanners worldwide and also developed document imaging software (TheRepository). I know how the scanners work. I have also sold other document imaging programs, such as Laser Fiche, Liberty and Alchemy. I have sold and installed document imaging systems in city and county governments, so I know their procedures with imaging systems and everything about the design of such programs. This will be important in understanding what has happened with Obama’s Certificate of Live Birth.
On May 12, Vogt submitted an affidavit which was included in a Motion to Intervene filed by Atty. Orly Taitz with the United States District Court in the Eastern District of Louisiana in regard to the case of Hornbeck v. Salazar. The affidavit consisted of a sworn statement and detailed report stating Vogt’s conclusion that the image a purported long-form birth certificate bearing the name of Barack Hussein Obama II is a forgery.
Vogt told The Post & Email that he had written the report for his own purposes prior to its inclusion in Taitz’s Motion to Intervene.
On May 22, 2011, Vogt updated the report, which declares that forgery of a government document would be a felony under U.S. Code, Title 18, and included it in acriminal complaint filed with the FBI.
The Post & Email asked Mr. Vogt how he arrived at his conclusions, and his answers are presented here in great detail. He referred to the May 22 updated analysis by the number of each subtitled section. The graphics are referred to as “Figures.”
MR. VOGT: I have no financial interest in this whatsoever. But here is what happened: I heard the presidential announcement on the 27th, and a friend of mine contacted me and said that there were layers in the image. He sent me a link to the White House blog. I logged on on the 28th and got another version. It explains in Subsection 8 of the long (updated) report that people were reporting nine layers. I decided I was going to write a report of what I found, and it was written independently of Orly’s case.
This is a blatant, obvious forgery. The thing I had in my mind as I was discovering it was, “Why did the forger go to such trouble to do these things which were seemingly unnecessary and blatant?” the last one being the stamped signature on the lower right-hand side, supposedly done on the 25th of the month. Where the words are, “THE” is deliberately misspelled as “TXE.” If you scroll down to page 11, you can see it. That’s not an “H.” The graphic artist who did this thing literally built that “X” by clicking pixels. It wasn’t an ‘H.” Also, the “F” in “OF” has also been doctored or came from someplace else because it’s closed off on the right-hand side. It’s not like the stamp that was done about a month before on the bottom of page 10; that stamp is perfectly fine, not crooked.
Those two things gave it away as a fraud: the “X” is “THE” and what they did to the word “OF.” But also, the stamp is too straight. This is hand stamp that someone takes with his hand and slaps it down. It’s called “skewing.” It’s skewed, but this one is off only two pixels over three inches over the length of the thing, which is unusually straight, which I don’t think they could do. That’s 1/150th of an inch off, and that’s really somebody placing it on the background image of the security paper.
The other thing is that on the “A” for “Alvin,” there’s a script “e” embedded on it, and if you look at the bottom of the previous one, it’s not really there. The “A” is smudged because of the rubber stamp, and they must have hit from the right-hand side of the stamp, as it’s darker there. But the point is that somebody has put something there.
Now the question is, “Was the “e” originally there on the original paper and they didn’t erase it before they put this thing down, or is the forger basically screaming at us that this thing is a forgery?” And I’m beginning to think that the forger may actually be the hero here because some of this stuff is so blatant, figuring that when he or she sent the PDF to the White House or to Hawaii and then Hawaii sent the PDF to the White House, they would have just printed it out on a color printer and scanned that in and presented it to the public.
I know the state of Hawaii has to have it. Besides, when I saw the image that Obama produced, I knew they had scanned this thing from one of the postbinder books, which is what #1 is, where I describe it. That’s one of the first things that gave it away: the typewriter lines were straight, but there was a paralax for the form itself, and I said, “OK; it’s been overlaid. That’s impossible.”
MRS. RONDEAU: Could you explain the term “parallax?” What does that mean?
MR. VOGT: It’s a optic term. It’s a distortion of the image. That’s all it means. It’s because when you put the paper down on the flatbed scanner, which is what they did, where the binder is (known as a gutter), was higher off the glass than the rest of it. So it looks as if it’s stanched down to the left. That’s an optical distortion, because they never took the pages out of the postbinder. These are all originally single pages, and the pages were actually printed most likely on letter-press, hot-metal letter-press, which was developed in the 50s and 60s.
The county would print up the birth certificate forms and send them to the hospital, and from the birth certificate, the hospital would type up and fill in the long form that the county gives them. Then the doctor would sign it, the mother would sign it, and they would mail it to the county.
I tried to explain the whole procedure so that people understood that this is what actually happened in all counties. This is how the procedure goes. In the old days, the county would microfilm it like the examples we had there that had been recorded before – the Nordyke twins.
The stamp that the state of Hawaii has is two and one-quarter inches; that’s larger than normal. Usually they’re less than two inches. You’ll notice the stamp on the Nordyke twins’ birth certificates are very close to the edge of the paper, and there is another one that was printed and stamped on the right-hand edge near the top. You can clearly see the embossing of the county seal. That’s Figure 18 on the latest report. I know the machine they used; they used an electronic machine, and it’s pretty obvious that the one that Obama presented was a second- or third-generation image of what was originally on the background color that the artist used.
I gave examples where, even on the Nordyke twins’s birth certificates, which is really an inverse of the microfilm copy, you can clearly see the imprint of the embossment seal. You can’t see it at all on Obama’s, and his is brand new. Those electronic stampers produce a lot of force. They’ll emboss three or four pieces of paper at once which can be seen very clearly. But this thing was just an artifact on the background image, so it’s just a joke. From that, I know that the whole story is not plausible.
If you open up the file in Wordpad or Notepad, then you’ll actually see the hexadecimal code and the commands within the document. I put the one I have on that page on Vectorpub.com, and that basically showed clearly that objects 13-21 were the parameters, in pixels – it tells you horizontally and vertically – where these images are. So there’s no argument, and they can’t prove it wrong. I have it from within the document from the White House that the thing is a multi-layered document. It had XML code on the very bottom of the file. If you open it yourself, you’ll see it. It gave a creation date and a modification date.
MRS. RONDEAU: What were those dates?
MR. VOGT: Well, the one I had had a creation date of April 27, 2011 at 12:09 p.m.; modification date of April 28 at 9:58 a.m. That’s the one I had pulled out. Dr. Corsi had sent me two more, but his were dated May 9 and 12, and one them didn’t have the XML data.
MRS. RONDEAU: Where did he find those?
MR. VOGT: People sent it to him thinking that was the first one, and it wasn’t.
MRS. RONDEAU: So you did an analysis and found that they were created on yet different dates from the first two?
MR. VOGT: That’s correct. I have one from at least the second day, but it really doesn’t matter at this point; I have the evidence from the White House.
MRS. RONDEAU: Do you have any thoughts on the short-form certificate which former White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs claimed he “put out on the internet?”
MR. VOGT: I don’t know. I’ve seen it, but they blocked out the serial number on the upper right-hand corner because they probably didn’t have one. It’s unknown right now.
Let’s go through the eight items so that you understand what they are.
We already talked about the distorted image that’s covered in #1. If you scroll down just above Subheading #2, you’ll see that the letters “N,” “s,” “H,” and “al” are grayscale, and the rest are binary, black and white. Even below it, the “d” in “residence” is grayscale. The document is just loaded with that kind of stuff, where you have letters that are grayscale and the rest are binary, black and white. At first I asked, “Well, why did he or she do that?” and I realized that the form is such that he or she needed to establish the baseline of the original form. That’s why it was done. Some of the letters were still there from a previous form, in grayscale, because he had to establish the baseline of the type, because if he got that wrong, it would have been really obvious that it was a forgery because the baseline would have been different from what is normally on any of the forms in points or picas.
That gave it away: the type, the name of the hospital, and the graphic above, “Male,” which didn’t bend down, but everything on the paper did bend down. So the typewriter stuff was another layer imposed on top of the form.
Subheading #2 is about the haloing around all the type. I gave examples of what it’s supposed to look like, both in grayscale, binary or even in color. With a background security paper, the type is supposed to show through, and his doesn’t at all. It’s due to a couple of different things. I didn’t go into it totally because it might be too technical, but basically, if the person was scanning in on grayscale or color, and then did that to the black and white but he had thresholding, what would happen is the boxes around real 100% black would still have a value in it; 256 is totally black, and zero (0) is white. But if he mistakenly didn’t have the thresholding correct, what would happen is that the boxes around the type would still have a value in it. It might be 20, 30 or 10; it would still look like white, but it really isn’t. So when he overlaid it on the color background and he said, “Type forward,” that it should be above the layer of the security paper, it would then block out the image of the security paper behind it because there was still a value in those little pixels. That’s the reason for the haloing effect around all the type.
MRS. RONDEAU: So that haloing should not be present on any copy of an original document?
MR. VOGT: That’s correct. That’s why I gave examples on page 3 and at the top of page 4. You can clearly see on Figure 6 or 7 that there is no haloing whatsoever, and you see the security paper behind it, both the green or the grayscale one. Figure 5 is a haloing effect; it should not be there: period, end of subject. It just can’t be there.
At the top of the next page, Figure 9, is a blowup of what grayscale letters look like. What happened when they went to binary, they made a mistake on the thresholding, so those little boxes that look like a faint gray when the program would convert it to a black and white image as with Figure 8, it still had a value around those letters. The value might have been 10, 20 or 30, but it still looked like white. But when they overlaid it, it really was a color, so it blacks out the background color, the background layer. That’s technically how it would happen, but if I did go into it, it would really be over everyone’s head.
MRS. RONDEAU: Is there a way to create a forged document which no one can detect?
MR. VOGT: It depends on the type of document. With this one, the unusual part is the parallax, or the curved image from the book. If it’s a flat image, it’s a lot easier. The curved one makes it much tougher. It’s really tough. The ones who are the experts at doing things like that is the CIA, and I can tell you right now that the CIA did not do this or any other intelligence agency. They would stay so far away from something like this; they never would have touched it. In fact, it would be the biggest red light to all of them; they’d investigate who is this guy in the White House now? They wouldn’t tolerate this; they just wouldn’t tolerate it at all.
Figure 10 is an inverted image of the black and white microfilm copy of Susan Nordyke’s birth certificate, and you can clearly see what it looks like and what the inverted image looks like.
Subsection #3: Obama’s document is loaded with both binary and grayscale. The person did it because they needed to establish the baseline of the type. Sometimes he didn’t do such a hot job. I’m saying “he,” but it could be a “she.” That’s the reason why they left these letters in there; they needed points by which to register the baseline of the forgery.
If you scroll down to Figure 13, which is on page 7, it’s his name: “Barack,” and the “r” is grayscale, visibly, and the rest is binary. They did that for registration reasons; they had to register the type. They figured no one would ever see it.
MRS. RONDEAU: What does “registering the type” mean?
MR. VOGT: The baseline. The baseline is where the type sits, the bottom of the type; that’s called a baseline, or baseline rule, in the typesetting business. That’s why my unique experience in typesetting told me immediately that this was a fraud. I recognize things that other people would not have.
Figure 14 is a separate offense. Do you see the “1″ where the number is in #14? That’s grayscale. Its baseline is different from the rest of it.
MRS. RONDEAU: So it will always look different if it’s grayscale?
MR. VOGT: Yes, that’s it, because it’s not a white dot or a black dot, which is binary; it’s rather 256 levels of gray to black. That’s the whole point. So it’s easy to spot like that. That told me immediately that we really don’t know what number he is or if he even has a number. He probably doesn’t at all. The interesting thing is this: the way the federal law is written, this is a separate offense that gives you five years in prison: that alone.
MRS. RONDEAU: Why would someone create something that is such an obvious forgery? I haven’t heard of one analyst who has vouched for the document except for one on fox News, but even he didn’t declare it authentic.
MR. VOGT: Yes, you’ll read it on the bottom; I answered him. He knows nothing. I’m going to send my material off to Fox News, but in my humble opinion, the guy is an idiot for even saying it.
Anyway, let’s go on. The sequential number is a fraud; that’s #4, and it goes through the law section a little bit and also the fact that even though his was submitted three days earlier than the Nordyke twins’s, who have a lower number, he has a higher number, and it’s just impossible. In counties, when any document comes in, regardless of department, they open up the mail and they stamp it because that’s the legal requirement. They wouldn’t have forgotten that; it’s a legal requirement, and they’re forced to do it. So it is impossible for him to have a number higher than someone’s who was mailed or OK’d three days earlier, just impossible. It’s an immediate red flag.
MRS. RONDEAU: From the paragraph which begins “The facts I have shown you in #3 and 4,” it looks as if you have heard the story of Virginia Sunahara. Some researchers believe that Obama could have been given her number because she was born on August 4 and died the next day. It’s possible that they assigned the death certificate before the birth certificate, which might account for the higher number.
MR. VOGT: If you read that paragraph, you’ll see that there are two possibilities. She was born in one hospital. They’re the ones who are legally supposed to submit the birth certificate. They would have mailed it, and they would have assigned a number to her. Then she was transferred to the other hospital, Kapiolani, where she died the next day. They would have been legally responsible to file the death certificate, which would have been mailed that next week. So the point is that she would have had a birth certificate and a death certificate. The law that the federal government passed in December 2004 said that you had to link the two together; they both had to be in the database. So they had access to who had died, so it was very convenient. But it also means, as I have in the third or fourth sentence, that we really don’t know if Obama’s birthday was really the fourth. We can’t assume anything at all. Maybe a long lie has been out there for all these years, but it doesn’t mean it’s true. You have to prove it. That’s the whole point. And I don’t think he has; it’s just a joke, the whole thing.
But the security hole is that the Kenyans say that his birth certificate was stolen or destroyed, which means that it probably wasn’t destroyed, but whomever is blackmailing him has the original. They have the original. So that’s the problem.
Number 5 is two different colors. This was really weird. Actually, it was in three places. I mention all three. There are two things here with the rubber stamp; it’s not just one curiosity. It’s on page 8 and 9, having to do with boxes 22 and 20. When the document comes into the registrar’s office, it’s the same rubber stamp; they stamp it on the left-hand side; they stamp it on the right-hand side, and the guy signs it off. The guy’s name in this case is U.K.L. Lee.
MRS. RONDEAU: A lot of people have questioned if that was a real person.
MR. VOGT: The other part that I was suspicious about, even though I’ve seen his name on a 1962 Certificate of Live Birth, he was supposed to legally have signed his whole name; no initials. That’s the law: it’s supposed to be his whole name. But he didn’t do that.
MRS. RONDEAU: Do you think that was a law in 1961?
MR. VOGT: You could see that for the Nordyke twins, the registrar signed his whole name without middle initials. His whole name was there. So the person who signed that one knew that he had to sign his whole name with no initials. So that’s suspicious.
Now, look at #22 and then #20. This should never have been, because there’s a color value to date “A” – August (Aug) and then the sixth, and that can’t be. This thing is supposed to have been scanned in grayscale or binary. We can’t have a color here, but we do. It is a dark green. I gave the color value on the bottom of page 8. Then we have box #20 at Figure 16, and we have a rubber stamp. This can’t be. They used the same rubber stamp the same day: the guy has a rubber stamp in his hand with the date, and he stamps left and right, and then he signs it. This can’t be. So it’s not only just the color, but it’s also the fact that it was two different rubber stamps with two different sizes. That’s can’t be.
Also, he grabbed the word “Date” in “A” because the “August” touched those letters, so he was stuck having to grab the top part as well as the date part. When you read the whole report, it is so obvious that this thing is a Frankenstein form.
That’s not the only place. In the third place it shows up, it’s mentioned just above Figure 16, that in box 17a, it displays the word “None,” but “Non” is in dark green, but not the “e.” It’s crazy stuff! That’s why I’m saying that the forger either was paid a lot of money but didn’t like what he was doing or hated what he was doing and was being forced to do it by his boss, and he was going to put enough things in there that a professional who knew this stuff could wind up spotting and say, “This thing is a forgery.” So in essence, the forger may actually be the hero.
Why did he insert a color in it? There are two different color values here. It’s not the same color.
Subsection 6 is about the seals. If you scroll down, Figure 19 is really an image under a color filter of the one that Obama submitted through the PDF. It’s only faintly there. If you scroll down to the next page, page 10, it’s actually invisible. In Figure 20, it’s almost not noticeable; it’s really a distortion in the background image. His first short-form is Figure 17, and you can clearly see that this thing was at least three inches from the bottom of the paper. I know the machine which embossed it; it was an electronic machine, not a hand stamp. It does a good job. You can clearly see it through their photographs.
Figure 18 is the positive – the inverted image from the microfilm copy of the Nordyke twins – and even if it was a microfilm, you can clearly see the embossment. It’s practically at the edge of the paper because the throat on those hand stamps won’t allow for very much distance between the edge of the paper and the edge of a two-and-one-quarter-inch seal. You can see it even on a microfilm copy. But we do not see it on his. That told me immediately that that was a second- or third-generation image from something else.
MRS. RONDEAU: Is there any stamp at all on the April 27 release?
MR. VOGT: No. There isn’t any, which means it’s not legal. Figure 21 was interesting: that was on a hand stamp, again, near the edge of the paper, less than an inch away from the edge, and you can clearly see the embossment. That’s an original, and it was from 1962.
Subsection 7 is the rubber stamp, which is skewed. That is normal; it’s a hand stamp, and nobody is trying to place the thing down by the pixel, but the one we have on Obama’s certificate of April 27 is about as straight as you can get with an eyeball. It’s only two pixels off over three inches. That’s been electronically leveled.
In Figure 23, the script on the capital “A” on “Alvin” in the signature, and the “X” in the word “TXE” were literally done by hitting pixels. They hit pixels to make something that looked like an “X,” but it’s not. When you blow it up, you can see it’s not an “X.” It’s something else. Again, it’s someone screaming at us, “This thing is a fraud!” That may be the most logical answer here.
Subsection 8 deals with the layers. This is embedded from within the PDF that the White House put up. It clearly shows from object 13-21 is the nine layers. It tells you the horizontal and vertical pixels of each one of the layers. Under each one of these headings, there’s a bunch of hexadecimal codes. This is where I pulled them all out and I sorted them, putting them in sequence. You have to actually open the file up in Wordpad and you’ll see exactly what I mean: just search for “style type/image” or something like that, and you’re going to find each one of the layers. There’s a bunch of layers in there, more than just these. Each one of the layers means something else. I could recognize it and know how to read some of the stuff. I could actually pull out one of these layers from the PDF and save it again, and that layer would disappear. You have to know how to do it, but it does tell you where the object starts and where the object ends. It’s something like an HTML, but it’s a different kind of code.
I put the links for videos that were on YouTube which explain the layers pretty well. I wanted to give these people credit; they deserve it. In Figure 25, I displayed the layer that has most of the type on it. As prima facie evidence, this thing is toast.
MRS. RONDEAU: What about the analyst from Canada whom Fox News featured who said that the image could be authentic?
Editor’s Note: The “leading expert” which Fox News quoted as having said, “You should not be so suspicious about this,” Jean-Claude Tremblay, states that his professional background includes more than 20 years in teaching Adobe products, Quark, and technical editing. It is this writer’s opinion that the title of the Fox News article, “Expert: No Doubt Obama’s Birth Certificate Is Legit,” is not an accurate reflection of Tremblay’s analysis of the birth certificate image, but rather, conjecture on the writer’s part.
It appears that Tremblay’s is the only analysis which Fox News has presented, despite the many reports and allegations that the image is a forgery.
MR. VOGT: On page 13, I wrote a rebuttal to discovery of the multi-layers found in the PDF. You’ll see in the last paragraph what my qualifications are for OCR. This guy knows nothing; he plainly does not know anything about it. You know something? Considering he wound up defending it on the 29th, the day after somebody found the layers, he would be my first suspect. If you looked at his qualifications, certified on a bunch of Adobe’s products, I would say he would be the first candidate I’d have for the one who put the thing together.
Somebody looked it up and said he was a supporter of Obama. Also, if they found a graphic artist who was sympathetic and was not from the country, there is less chance of his being subpoenaed to give testimony to Congress. They’re actually wrong about the investigation part; the reason is that there is a security treaty between the United States and Canada concerning national security, which this definitely does, and that means that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police will be investigating this guy to find out. He can be extradited to the United States to testify. He is not exempt from prosecution.
MRS. RONDEAU: Why do you think no one from the FBI has gone out to Hawaii to investigate the forgery?
MR. VOGT: If you go to the next section, page 13, I say in the Conclusion section that it is a “Frankenstein certificate.” Some guy actually drew a picture of Obama looking like Frankenstein. They’re selling T-shirts like that; they got the idea from me.
But here’s the answer to your question: Orly said she has reported things to the FBI and they haven’t done anything with it. This is the way a law enforcement agency works: First, the FBI is part of the Justice Department, and the Justice Department is controlled by a guy who is an Obama handmaiden. Unless a policing agency is notified that a crime has been committed, they’re not going to bother with it. It’s nothing. No matter how many YouTube things are out there or things on the web, unless somebody formally notifies a policing agency like the FBI, nothing is going to be done, because they weren’t told a crime has been committed.
For instance, if a bank is robbed, the banker will call the police department, which will in turn call the FBI, because it’s their purview. The banks are insured by the FDIC; therefore, they robbed the federal government, and the FBI investigates. They collect the data, hopefully catch the criminal, and then they give it to a federal attorney who prosecutes. But again, they have to be told that a crime has been committed. That’s the key thing; no one has ever done it.
I did. I sent it off to the Director of the FBI and also to the Field Agent in Charge in Hawaii. I sent it off twice to each one in different ways, all by mail. Hawaii will probably get it earlier because of the mail screening that occurs in Washington, DC. However, the crime was committed both in Hawaii and in Washington, DC. It’s very possible, since I see that the form was modified on the day of its presentation and the day after, that somebody in the White House was modifying it.
MRS. RONDEAU: So they might not have created it, but now they have it and are modifying it.
MR. VOGT: Correct, so the crime has been committed in both places. When you read the law at the bottom of the report, and I included the sections in red that I want people to understand, you realize that it’s a very, very serious crime. This comes under the heading of defrauding the United States. Everybody in the White House who knows this thing, as well as in the Department of Health in Hawaii, is in huge trouble. They have no idea that just on the face of the document itself, and the security number, is 20 years in prison. Considering they flagrantly flaunted their arrogance and knew what they were doing was wrong for somebody to become President of the United States who wasn’t even a citizen is treasonous. If the prosecution goes to the level of treason, which it should be, these people go to prison for the rest of their lives.
Some of those people are going to be talking their heads off not to go to prison for the rest of their lives. What I’ve done is make it irrelevant where the guy was born. It’s no longer a case of trying to prove he was born in Kenya, Timbuctu, Manchuria or New York City; it’s now a simple, provable case of forgery in the first degree.
Without question, this is the greatest scandal in American history. Everybody agrees: nothing comes even remotely close; not the scandals in the Grant administration; in Harding’s Teapot Dome; in Watergate; Clinton was nothing…this tops everything.

5. Why did Jana Winter of Fox News misrepresent or lie about what a OCR expert stated about the image? The expert, Jean Claude Tremblay, has since criticized Winter and Fox for the misrepresentation.
6. World Net Daily, in the past week, has presented 2 high level experts. One has questioned the image. The last one, Mara Zebest, calls it a forgery.
Mr. Coble, thank you for your response and attention. I believe that you care deeply about this country and have honorable intentions. It is with that belief that I will endeavor to provide compelling evidence for your attention. As a starting point, I suggest you speak with retired Major General Paul Vallely.
Respectfully,
Citizen WElls”
Mr. Coble and Congress, here is the first installment of more evidence against the image placed on WhiteHouse.gov and Barack Obama. Adobe Expert Mara Zebest at the National Press Club June 29, 2011

The signature of President Obama's mother on the White House-released long-form birth certificate provides a mathematically certain proof of forgery, according to a prominent software engineer who works as a high-level programmer for a state government.
The source spoke on condition his name not be used, fearing he might lose his job. He asserted that revealing his name is not necessary, because the analysis is self-evident.
Many computer experts have noted that the PDF Obama birth certificate released April 27 has nine layers when viewed in Adobe Illustrator. Get the New York Times best-seller "Where's the Birth Certificate? The Case that Barack Obama Is Not Eligible to be President," autographed by Jerome Corsi, Ph.D.
Notably, the name "(Stanley) Ann Dunham Obama" is in two separate layers. "(Stanley) Ann D" is contained in Layer 8 while "unham Obama" is in Layer 9, as seen below in Exhibit 1.

A close-up of a screen capture of Layer 8 can be seen in Exhibit 2.

"One of the changes, reflected by Layer 8, had me wondering the most," the software engineer told WND. "If you recall, this layer showed the mother's signature, along with the other two signatures on the image. Everything else was omitted, meaning the signatures were added as their own layer." (Story continues below)
However, the last part of the mother's signature can only be seen in Layer 9, where it shows up, in bold as "unham Obama," distinct in appearance from the lighter "(Stanley) Ann D" in Layer 8.
In other words, the mother's signature is a composite image, formed when the image in Layer 8 is combined with the image in Layer 9.
"Graphics artists combine images day in and day out, taking parts of one image and over-laying another," he explained. "After adding multiple text layers, the composite image is saved to be placed into the final."
The key analysis focuses on the Ann Dunham signature contained in Layer 9.
"It's a disappointing signature," the software engineer said, "in that it cannot be Stanley Ann's unless she has perfect handwriting."
To prove this point, he brought up the birth certificate document in Windows Photo Viewer to magnify the "unham Obama" seen in Adobe Illustrator in Layer 9.
"After zooming into the maximum on this partial signature, I found that part of the name was in perfect alignment across the bottom, exactly one pixel from the bottom line of the text box for the signature."
The "unham" part of the mother's signature under magnification is demonstrated in Exhibit 3, with the "Obama" part of the mother's signature in Exhibit 4:
Exhibit 3: Mother's signature in Obama long-form birth certificate.
Exhibit 4: Mother's signature in Obama long-form birth certificate.
"I had to scrunch the image a bit to fit on the screen," he explained, but it still shows the perfect alignment of the pixels across the letters in 'unham' in the image above. The same perfect alignment is seen in the 'Obama' part of the mother's signature."
The signature, he insisted, provides mathematical proof the Obama birth certificate is a fraud.
"No person can write with mathematical perfection," he said. "It's impossible. But a computer can easily write with mathematical perfection."
Exhibit 5: Ann Dunham signature on Obama long-form birth certificate
Human signatures, he insisted, show imperfections such that some of the lettering will always drop below a mathematically perfect line drawn at the bottom of a word.
To prove the point, he pointed to examples of cursive handwriting generated by a computer on Fontspace.com, as seen in Exhibit 6.
The bottom of the computer-generated cursive handwriting as seen in Exhibit 5 produces a mathematically perfect bottom surface that plots straight-across on a horizontal line.
To stress the distinctiveness of the 'unham Obama' part of the mother's signature on the document, the software engineer examined under extreme magnification in the Windows Photo Viewer the signature of Dr. David A. Sinclair, the attending physician as described in the document, and found that pixels forming the signature extend below a mathematically perfect horizontal line drawn through the base of the signature, as seen in Exhibit 7.

"Notice how Dr. Sinclair's signature meets and is over the line in may places," he observed. "It is not exactly one row of pixels parallel to the line."
The mother's signature provides mathematical proof the document is forged, he said.
"If the forger had wanted a perfect forgery, it would have been better to have a human being write in the 'unham Obama' part of the signature," he concluded. "Sometimes perfect detail can draw attention, and in this case, the hand-writing in Layer 9 was too perfect. No human being writes that mathematically perfect."
