    EgyptAir hijacker's ex-wife says he is 'extremely dangerous'

    Marina Paraschou rejected media reports that 59-year-old Seif Eldin Mustafa hijacked the Airbus A320 with 72 passengers and crew onboard out of love for her.
    In an interview published on Thursday in the daily Phileleftheros, Paraschou said Mustafa never asked to speak to her and police only asked her to identify his voice.

    Paraschou said Mustafa was a “fanatical” Palestine Liberation Organisation supporter who bragged about participating in the killing of three Israeli soldiers and was jailed for four years in Syria.
    Paraschou said the last conversation she had with Mustafa since the couple divorced in 1990 took place a few years ago, following the death their daughter, one of four children. Paraschou said that when she called Mustafa to tell him, he responded: “And what do I care? I don’t mind that she died”...
    -----------------------------------------------------
    My comments on this case:
    So unlike the official version of that event, the hijacker never made a request to even speak to his ex-wife and contrary to what was reported, she never went to that airport during or after that event to see him either.


    So if true, and it sure sounds like it is, then what other bits of misinformation and omissions were or were not reported to the media while that event was unfolding by Cyprus authorities? That the hijacker didn't even ask to speak to his ex-wife certainly shoots down Cyprus' claim about why that airliner was hijacked....

    Nor has there been any information reported by Cyprus officials about the hijackers 4 year imprisonment in Syria as a PLO fanatic/terrorist.

    During the hijacking, the pilot stated that he offered the hijacker 3 places to land... one of those choices was Cyprus and that's the one that the pilot chose.... not the hijacker. The hijacker, according to the pilot wanted to go to Turkey. So this tells us that the planes landing in Cyprus was NOT a predesignated destination requested by the hijacker because it was only one of 3 locations given to him by the pilots as a place to land at to refuel. This weakens Cyprus' claim that the hijacking took place because the hijacker merely wanted to be with his ex wife who just so happened to live in Cyprus.
    This case is a good example about how gov't officials intervene to change the facts of any given event for their own nefarious purposes. The same thing has been going since time memorial wrt UFOs and ETs. There's a cover-up going on here, at this time, concerning the true details about that hijacking.

    Also, I'm seeing the same thing happening here as what happened with that Russian airliner that flew out of Egypt back in Nov. The P.M> of Egypt and various officials kept insisting right from the get go that terrorism was not involved in the demise of that plane.
    Now we are seeing the same thing going on in Cyprus where the pres. went on the news insisting that terrorism is not involved and it's like a case of a love-sick man who wants to see his ex-wife.

    Terrorism is bad for the tourist industry in those countries so of course they are going to keep insisting that terrorism/ISIS is not involved for as long as they can before the story fades away in the news.
    Here's a comment I made in the Predictions for 2016 thread while the hijacking was occurring. "But the fact remains that this hijacker is holding hostage the crew and five (three in the end) foreigners who were passengers of that plane. That they are foreigners and not Egyptian nationals gives clue that there is a political ideological component involved in this case on some level. Hijacking an airliner and taking hostages IS terrorism any which way you look at it. ISIS may or may not be involved but then again, at this point in time, we don't know that. When he hijacked that plane, whatever the case maybe, he probably wanted authorities to think he was an ISIS suicide bomber... hence his claim that he's wearing an explosive belt.

    This is a case that officials are calling "Old Fashioned Type Terrorism".
    The motive at this time is still unknown according to CNN.

    Question: Could it be that officials in Malaysia have suppressed information about the disappearance of Malaysian Flight 370 that terrorists hijacked that plane in order to not put a dent into their tourist industry? Egypt and now Cyprus are indicating to us that that's what they have been doing wrt to their own downed airliners so maybe terrorists were involved in that Malaysian airliner flight too.

    Here's another article that's stating the pilot picked to land in Cyprus... not the hijacker.

    Update: Reported in Newsweek today:

    EXCLUSIVE: EGYPTAIR CO-PILOT ON HIS ORDEAL ALONE WITH HIJACKER


    He (co-pilot) says the message from the crew from the hijacker to the cockpit was: “Captain, the plane is hijacked. Go now to Cyprus, Turkey or Athens. If you land in any of the Egyptian land airports, it will be only one press on the button, everything will go, everyone will die. It’s your decision.”

    Mustafa’s demand to travel to one of three different locations suggests that he might not have wished to see his ex-wife in Cyprus, as widely reported, but rather to land on European soil.

    ...After Kaddah and Gammal informed international and domestic air controllers of the hijack situation, they took the decision to head to Cyprus because of fuel concerns, says the co-pilot, who joined EgyptAir in 2010.

    “We tried to see what we have [left] for fuel and what we are going to do. But with the fuel we were not able to go anywhere else. We had no other choice, we would end up in the water if they refused to land us.”

    The co-pilot, who speaks English, says that the hijacker did demand a translator and to see his ex-wife after landing in Cyprus but he also had political demands that the pilot says he is not authorized to reveal as he does not have permission from EgyptAir or Egyptian authorities.

    EgyptAir hijack: Co-pilot hints at darker motives behind Seif el-Din Mustafa's bizarre stunt

    In an exclusive interview with Newsweek, co-pilot Hamad el Kaddah – who was filmed escaping from the cockpit before dropping to the tarmac – has revealed the fear and confusion caused when Mustafa emerged from a toilet claiming to have an explosive belt. He also claimed that reports Mustafa simply wished to see his ex-wife, who is now living in Cyprus, don't tell the whole truth.
    Mustafa – accused of neglecting his children, drug abuse, and violence – is far from the incompetent geek portrayed in much of the media, said the co-pilot of the plane …
