    I'm just genuinely confused, even this one article was confusing.
    According to Somaia, the siblings were out of the political loop when they landed. She had just finished her Montessori studies and was hoping to gain some teaching experience in Egypt that summer; another sister had applied for a place on an art course. “All of a sudden, the coup happened,” Somaia recalls, “and we felt, this is not right.”

    The authorities should keep a discreet eye on him and his family just to be sure to be sure .

    When the media told us that he was just randomly caught up in a protest

    When they told us he was on a hunger strike

    When his sisters presented a paper machete bouquet of the Irish flag made by Ibrahim in prison

    When Ibrahim said he knows nothing of the Muslim Brotherhood

    When Ibrahim said he got shot and cannot close his hand.

    I think he came across really, really well on the late late show. I suppose at 17 none of us really knew what we were up to.

    Look at the Holy Islamic Trinity that thanked the post, including the one that shouts Allah Akbar at European airports, tells you all you need to know. They'll excuse anything. Every single 17 year old in Ireland would know what ISIS and the IRA are and by the same token I'm sure every 17 year old Egyptian Muslim (he himself identifies as Egyptian, as well as Irish) knows who ISIS and the MB are. But nah, he was 17, basically an amoeba sure.

    Lucinda Creighton doesn’t believe his story.

    Delighted #IbrahimHalawa is finally free. But his story about going to the cinema & just ending up preaching to a rally of 20K pro #Morsi Muslim Brotherhood supporters is simply not credible, esp given family links to ECFR & al Qaradawi #LateLate

    Read that as family links to EOTR :pac::pac::pac:

    there is no evidence to prove that claim. he simply addressed a pro-democracy rally as far as he was concerned. the egyptian authorities believe his story to be as he said it, seeing as all the charges against him were thrown out due to no evidence. as it stands, he is innocent of all allegations.

    he is not guilty of any of the allegations made against him until proven otherwise in a court of law.

    which mistakes? what was i wrong on? both posts of mine stated he isn't guilty of anything. if there is evidence he has commited any crime then he should be charged and brought to court, but until then he is not guilty of anything.

    Just caught up with the RTE player.

    Now in fairness he should have been emaciated and traumatised after four years in an Egyptian prison. Correct?

    Looked great, and well fed to me, and certainly not traumatised. But what do I know about Egyptian prisons and Baksheesh. Well nothing really.

    You said he was innocent of ALL allegations....you have no possible way of knowing that.
    Like I said before,not guilty of allegations brought before Egyptian courts,not ALL allegations.
    So yes you are wrong,as usual.

    Did you see where he showed Ryan how he can't close his hand all the way ? But then a few minutes later closed his hand all the way.

    There are some to will deny everything despite evidence to the contrary. They claim because he was not convicted that nothing happned at all.

    Therefore I have fixed the previous statement made by eotr-just in case there would be any doubt. The playing with and substituting of words such as "charges" for "allegations" is so very transparent.

    Well no matter what he certainly didn't look like a jailbird to me. Sunken cheeks, bad skin, etc. No.

    Was all paid for to get him out I reckon but anyway.

    So, now that he is sorted, the girls are on another mission. look it up re their husbands.

    Fk sake this country will never be good enough for them all, so why the heck are they still here. Why don't the female cohort join their husbands abroad. Just baffled sorry.

    Just watched it there.

    He was lying through his teeth about how he got involved "I was at the cinema, didn't know what was going on and because my two friends were shot dead I got up on a stage at a pro democracy rally"...
    A lot of detail on jail, very sketchy on how.he ended up there.
    "I went on hungry strike loads of times, once because I didn't like the colour of my cell" FFS


    That said, I don't think he's the brains of the operation, more a kid used by someone...for a cause
    I'd like nothing more then to let him slip into obscurity, and get on with his life. Unfortunately I fear it's not the last we've heard of this family and their odious values

    no matter how hard people on here try to hide it the racism is blatant, if it isn't a direct attack on the individual it's a joke about Islam. Can't any of you have any basic respect? Were ye not taught that?

    I went to the same school as Ibrahim at the holy rosary in firhouse, he was brought up like any other Irish teenager. If you ever met him i can guarantee you will all have different opinions. I rarely ever comment on boards and have been a casual observer of this thread until now, but the level of nonsense is quite high.

    Can someone tell me how they have concluded he was purposely sent there on a "mission"? I distinctly remember his facebook posts when he went, it was all about a holiday, pictures of the plane, airport, arriving with his family and friends there etc, so please lay off with the absolutely unfounded nonsense about the purpose of his trip.

    As for those claiming he is not Irish, if he had scored the winning goal at the aviva to get Ireland to the world cup ... would he not be Irish? Do me a favour.
