Mystery of the boy in the Messi bag solved

Postby Thuganomics » Wed Jan 27, 2016 4:31 pm

The online quest to find the unknown boy was sparked by a single photo of the back of a child wearing a Lionel Messi shirt made from a plastic bag. The photo went viral as did claims that the boy was an Iraqi Kurd and that the Barcelona football star wanted to find his young fan to give him a proper shirt.

Do you ever read threads you comment on horta
Where does Arab come into the equation.Thr piece said:Initially they thought he was Kurdish because some Kurdish guy hoaxed the News Agencies but he turned out to be Afghani.Last I knew neither Kurds nor Afghans are Arabs

No, i only read the first article of that BBC article, and when i saw his name, i thought he was Arab.
