Just like many of you, I couldn’t believe my eyes.
I couldn’t believe the news.
Julian Assange is free.
But for the global community of concerned people, Julian’s life might have been destroyed by US war criminals.
The community didn’t break. And, someone, he didn’t break either.
I’m eternally proud of the global efforts to free him — just I am eternally disgusted by the war criminals, the world’s mafia, the genocide enablers, who kept him locked.
In my quick video, I talk about how the criminality just can’t be more in the open of those who tried so hard to silence Julian. It’s the same criminality – the war crimes, the crimes against humanity, the cheapening and destruction of non-white lives – that we’re seeing Israel engage in in Gaza.
I also invite you to cherish this rare and precious moment of joy in the middle of this madness. Tears of joy might seem so rare these days 💔
As always: stay strong, check on others, and keep your heart open.
❤️💔❤️
