To all who are interested in the incarceration of the Ibrahim family:
The Immigration Court at Dallas, Texas, whose legendary incompetence is matched by nothing in all the world except, perhaps, its malice and utter contempt for such American values as the liberty of human beings, announced that the hearing on whether Salaheddin Ibrahim will be freed from prison has been cancelled.
Instead, the hearing will be Thursday, 8 February 2007 at 09:00 in the immigration court at Dallas, Texas.

NOTE: Mr. Ibrahim is the father of four children who, along with their pregnant mother, Hanan, were released from the T. Don Hutto prison on Saturday. Since the family’s abduction in early November, Mr. Ibrahim has been imprisoned separately from his spouse and children, at an immigration prison in Haskell, Texas.
When we asked why the release of Mr. Ibrahim was taking so long, attorney Gibson replied, “I have not obtained it yet.”–gm
