From this post:
We looked at history of Libya and Ahmed Al-Zubair al-Senussi, also known as Zubeir Ahmed El-Sharif, (Arabic: أحمد الزبير الشريف) (born 1933) is a Libyan member of the Senussi house and a member of the National Transitional Council representing political prisoners. Per wiki. Now we continue to Egypt.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heliopolis_(ancient)
Heliopolis (/hiliˈɒpɵlʌs/; Ancient Greek: Ἡλιούπολις, “City of the Sun” or “City of Helios“; Egyptian: ỉwnw; Arabic: عين شمس, Ain Shams, “Eye of the Sun”) was one of the oldest cities of ancient Egypt, the capital of the 13th Lower Egyptian nome that was located five miles (8.0 km) (8 km) east of the Nile to the north of the apex of the Nile Delta. Heliopolis has been occupied since the Predynastic Period with extensive building campaigns during the Old and Middle Kingdoms. Today it is mostly destroyed; its temples and other buildings were used for the construction of medieval Cairo. Most information about the ancient city comes from textual sources.
Beneath a maze of busy narrow streets of a middle and lower-class district, lie vast hidden remains of ancient Heliopolis about fifteen to twenty metres down. This ancient Egyptian site lies predominantly in the northern Cairo suburb of Al-Matariyyah, and also covers the districts of Ain Shams and Tel Al-Hisn east of the Nile. It also straddles the Cairo Metro line 1–2 km (1–1 mile) west of the edge of the 20th century modern Heliopolis, a suburb in the district Masr al-Gidedah (Arabic: مصر الجديدة, “New Egypt”).
The site of Heliopolis has now been brought for the most part under cultivation and suburbanization, but some ancient city walls of crude brick can be seen in the fields, a few granite blocks bearing the name of Ramesses II remain, and the position of the great Temple of Re-Atum is marked by the Al-Masalla obelisk. Archaeological sites below including recent tomb discoveries.
The only surviving remnant of Heliopolis is the Temple of Re-Atum obelisk located in Al-Masalla of the Al-Matariyyah district. It was erected by Senusret I of the Twelfth dynasty, and still stands in its original position. The 68 ft (20.73 m) high red granite obelisk weighs 120 tons (240,000 lbs).

And a new write on Heliopolis is here:
http://www.granta.com/New-Writing/The-Father-of-Heliopolis
When my father and I landed in Cairo on 21 March, 2011 – the day after the first truly democratic referendum in the history of modern Egypt – the city was under a midnight curfew. Cairo, the city where my father was born, the city he’d left in 1946, at the age of fourteen – and to which he hadn’t returned in sixty-five years.
My Egyptian friends had told me to take the curfew seriously. Police were searching cars, checking papers, and demanding bribes. The baltagiya – the armed thugs that Mubarak’s government used to intimidate its political rivals – were rumored to be out in the streets.
Our plane had landed at 8 p.m. Our luggage was lost, however, and by the time we filed the proper paperwork and secured our ground transportation, it was nearly eleven: dangerously close to curfew. Our driver surged out into the chaotic traffic, careening along the Al-Orouba Road and up onto the elevated Salah Salem. At one point, I scrambled for my seat belt – only to discover that it had been uninstalled. Our driver noticed my alarm and laughed.
‘No more Mubarak,’ he said with a broad smile, ‘no more seat belt”

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Louise_of_Belgium
Princess Louise of Belgium (18 February 1858, Brussels – 1 March 1924, Wiesbaden) was the eldest daughter of Leopold II and his wife, Marie Henriette of Austria.
Born Louise Marie Amélie of Belgium, Louise married Philipp, Prince of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha–Koháry, her second cousin, in Brussels, on 4 February/4 May 1875 and had two children:
- Leopold Clement Philipp August Maria (Hungary, 19 July 1878 – Vienna, 27 April 1916).
- Dorothea Maria Henriette Auguste Louise (Vienna, 30 April 1881 – Württemberg, 21 January 1967), married on 2 August 1898 to Ernst Günther, duke of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Augustenburg.
The marriage was disliked by her father, who regarded it as an unwelcome alliance with Prussia, but her mother approved of it because Philip lived in Hungary. The relationship between Louise and Philip was not happy: Philip is said to have been authoritarian, and Louise responded to his authoritarianism by living a lavish lifestyle at the court of Vienna, where she attracted much attention. In 1880, she suggested the marriage between her sister Stephanie and Crown Prince Rudolf of Austria.

Now note here at link above:
Obama was not born in August of 1961; he was born in February 1961. Mary’s daughter was not 18 months old when Mary babysat; she was 18 months older than Obama. Remember too that Maraniss, Scott, Jacobs and Remnick all are totally — and inexplicably — silent on Ann’s whereabouts from February to August 1961.
The sham marriage of Ann Dunham and Barack Obama, Sr. would have probably taken place in February of 1961, just before or after the baby was born. This would also mean that Barack Obama, Sr. the man, “married in name only,” who has no physical resemblance to our president, could not be the biological father; there just wasn’t enough time. For Obama Sr. to work as the real biological father, an early August birth date is about as soon as a child could be born. This would explain the story of an unlikely meeting in a Russian class and the rapid seduction of Ann. It would also explain why Obama’s birth certificate appears to many experts to be a forgery. Obviously, if Obama was born in February 1961, the birth certificate would have to be “modified.”

For those of you wondering why this Lebanese family tree appears on this thread, let me explain that it is in furtherance of the “Mal-Val” theory which holds that Lebanese Christian Valerie Sarruf is Barack Obama’s mom and Malcolm X is his dad. If this theory is true this family tree appears to show that Obama is a second-cousin, once-removed from the recently notorious Lebanese twins, Jill Kelley and Natalie Khawam. Very amusing, that.
The whole Mal-Val theory is controversial and there is a 1000 comment FR thread dedicated to the topic.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jill_Kelley
Gilberte “Jill” Khawam Kelley (born June 3, 1975) is a Lebanese-American socialite and privacy advocate in Tampa, Florida.Kelley, a Florida socialite with connections to military circles, had issued a complaint to the FBI in May 2012 over a series of anonymous stalking emails. The threatening emails were traced to Petraeus’ biographer Paula Broadwell. Kelley became a focus of media coverage when an FBI investigation related to e-mails she had received led to the public becoming aware that General David Petraeus was having an affair and a further investigation of e-mail communications General John R. Allen sent to Kelley. In January 2013, the Department of Defense Inspector General cleared Allen of all allegations involving Kelley, stating that the claims against Allen were “unsubstantiated”

Kohary/ Curry/Carey, Kerry:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_Koh%C3%A1ry
Koháry was an ancient Hungarian noble family with seats at Csábrág and Szitnya, now Čabraď and Sitno Castle and the palace of Svätý Anton within Slovakia. The Kohárys belonged among the magnates of Hungary. Their holdings were calculated to be around 150.000 hectares making Princess Maria Antonia Koháry de Csábrág at the time of her marriage to Prince Ferdinand of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha one the richest heiresses in Europe.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catherine_Radziwill
Princess Catherine Radziwiłł (30 March 1858 – 12 May 1941)[1][2] was a Polish princess from the Polish-Lithuanian aristocratic Radziwiłł family. She was born as Countess Ekaterina Adamovna Rzewuska. She married Prince Wilhelm Radziwiłł at age 15 and moved to Berlin to live with his family. It was speculated that she was the author of a book gossiping about the German Emperor William II and Berlin society in 1884 under the pen name Paul Vasili.
She stalked the English-born South African politician Cecil Rhodes and asked him to marry her, but he refused. She then got revenge by forging his name on a promissory note. She was convicted of forging Rhodes’ signature and spent time in a South African jail for her crimes.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cecil_Rhodes
The Rt Hon Cecil John Rhodes DCL (5 July 1853–26 March 1902)[1] was an English businessman, mining magnate, and politician in South Africa. Rhodes was named the chairman of De Beers at the company’s founding in 1888 De Beers, established with funding from NM Rothschild & Sons Limited in 1887 today markets 40% of the world’s rough diamonds, and at one time marketed 90%. An ardent believer in British colonialism, Rhodes was the founder of the southern African territory of Rhodesia, which was named after him in 1895. South Africa’s Rhodes University is also named after Rhodes. He set up the provisions of the Rhodes Scholarship, which is funded by his estate.

And a President of Lebanon:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bechara_El_Khoury
Khoury founded the Ad-Dustour Party and served as a Cabinet minister prior to his election as President on 21 September 1943. He was a strong nationalist who opposed the French Mandate, and on 11 November 1943, he was arrested by Free French troops and imprisoned in the Rashaya Tower for eleven days along with Riad Al Solh (the Prime Minister), Pierre Gemayel, Camille Chamoun, and numerous other personalities who were to dominate politics in the generation following independence.
