An American Expat in Southeast Asia reports on a television series about Barack Obama’s youth as a Muslim in Indonesia: Tracking Barack Obama in Indonesia.

In the second part of the video, Zulfan Adi, a former neighborhood playmate of Obama’s who has been cited in numerous news reports claiming that Obama regularly attended Friday prayers with his stepfather Lolo Soetoro points out the “Musholla Al-Rahman” (Al-Rahman Prayer Room) to the reporter where he then goes out of his way to explain that Obama wasn’t “praying” in the prayer room, he only “playing”. That Zulfan Adi found it necessary to use and emphasize the English word “praying” in the Indonesian language report leads us to the self-evident conclusion that this part of the report if not all of it was simply staged for foreign consumption.

You see, when I was a kid I used to save up for a month, so I could get an R&B album and, the same day, the completed works of Anton Webern. Maybe that means something. Maybe that tells you something about my music. -- Excerpt from the book "Rock and Other Four Letter Words", copyright 1968.
