I thank the Minister for his response and update. When I met Ibrahim, and in correspondence since, I assured him, as others did, that we will not forget about him and we will not give up until we get him home. How we approach this is important. While I do not doubt anyone's bona fides and that everyone cares about his situation, some of the comments that have been made from time to time have done more damage than good to him. People should be aware of that and should temper their remarks in that regard. They are very aware in Egypt-----
