Thank GOD and everybody who helped with getting Julian Assange free
Chris Hedges is a blessed human being. Thanks brother Hedges.
Amen ❤
Glad he going home
Powerful reminder!! Thank you Mr. Hedges.
JULIAN IS FREE. PROTECT HIM AND HIS FAMILY. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️! He is free and righteous. PROTECTION and Love!!
i wonder what actual 'Deal' was agreed with the, American deep state for his apparent freedom? is it the nonstop pushback from the general public despite mass censorship, the obvious alarm bell is the looming elections,and the return of the son of Perdition (Trump) and perhaps win over the gullible to dupe them into a form of trust in 'democarcy and justice' 🤔
Thanks…beautiful and inspiring
A captivating and eloquent orator!!! Thank you, Chris Hedges for your dedication in your moral beliefs!!!
Chris Hedges is a most extraordinary thing: a prophet and a poet whose words can inspire and anger but never disenchant!
He's one of the few who sees cynicism as part of the problem. Such a great thinker
Julian is finally going home! Fuck yeah to everyone, especially you Chris Hedges who stuck by him all these years!
ikr.. it literally just happened. i wonder if the biden admin did it to boost polls if so they use him as a political tool.
So extraordinarily beautiful! I am reduced to tears and gratitude for this sermon that does no less than than exhalt our very nature. I feel so indebted to you Chris hedges for being the ultimate and saving voice of truth and compassion in the wilderness of greed and deception that is thrust upon us. My eternal thanks.
HA HA! Well put: FYTE!😁
Difficult to press the "like" button on this beautiful lament. I have no idea how Chris Hedges can utter such words of woe without weeping.
A beautiful sermon worthy of Jesus Christ.
"This organized power from below is the only power that we save us, and the only power that will free Julian."
- Chris Lynn Hedges
Educate & Organize ✌we win... Julian is free!
Constant.
“ As news of the plea deal spread on Monday night, there were widespread expressions of relief that Assange’s years-long captivity appeared to be coming to an end. But there were also concerns that a conviction, even on a single count, could have a devastating and prolonged impact on investigative and national security journalism.
Jameel Jaffer, executive director of the Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University which defends press freedom, said that the plea deal averted the worst-case scenario of a full-on prosecution. “But this deal contemplates that Assange will have served five years in prison for activities that journalists engage in every day.”
😢😢😢
Chris Hedges has become my favourite Calvinist. (Well, along with Beyers Naude).
Now that Julian is free what are you gonna talk about on this channel?
Thousands of subjects. Sudan, Somalia, Kongo, Ethiopia, Bolivia, Peru, Cuba, Haiti theocratic governments like Iran, Saudi Arabia, UE, Syria, Lebanon, far right parties rising in Europe, dictators like Putin, Sisi(Egypt), poverty in the world, corporation greed…..do you want more???????
I think the one question id ask julian is would he do it again?
Surely he would do it again-
Your'e implying that Mr. Assange is a coward. Shame on you.
I wouldnt ask him anything. Just try to make him comfortable until he feels like speaking. He has seen the face of a real satan.
Thank you, Chris.
God bless you and keep you always.
Thank you Mr Chris Hedges for your beautiful words.
Mr HEDGES Zia a great man!!!!!!
Perfect timing to view this truthful & beautiful speech by Hedges as Assange is free & going home.
Let's wait if his plane manages to land (I hope it's not a Boeing), if the deal goes through... and ih he doesn't get shot in the back of his head twice and declared it was a suicide (Remember Gary Webb?)
The timing is amazing! He's going home!!!!!! 🎉🎉
Wonderful! and such an inspiration!
Despite the injustices done and years of justice, Julian ia alive and free
STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN STEIN CAN WIN
Beautifully done! Thanks Chris Hedges!
I've stepped away from faith and religion for a very long time. And then I came across Eckhart Tolle and I saw that the major religions all have the same underlying message, that I thought somewhere deep in me. But until I listen to this I never really understood why. Because I've always also been a revolutionary in spirit and in my soul. Thank you Chris hedges Chris Hedges not just for all you do but for who you
Thank you Chris and cheers to an erudite, wonderful sermon and service to Julian Assange and the courage, dignity and humanity he displayed through it all. May he now heal and move forward with his life and family while disregarding the coerced guilty confession to a fraudulent, bogus felony charge accepted today. The world knows its a complete fraud, illegal, rubbish charge and shall never accept it. Finally, 12+ years of American and British brutality, cruelty and his resulting severe health degradation comes to an end.
Brilliant sermon.
This gave hope in a dark and lonely night 🙏🏼✊🏾🌈🕊️
Btw, Chris is also a poet 💣
👍👍+ CHRIS HEDGE IS 🏅🍉.
Deeply grateful Julian Assange is free. Safe travels to Australia, and may he have peace to recover from the ordeals of so many years!
We are tasked NEVER TO FORGET what these people did to him, they have shown their true face and we will not be fooled by any makeup they put on now to curry favor, but instead continue to do our utmost to bereave them of their power.
Wow... powerful. Let this be a touchstone, an inspiration revisited. Thank you! ♥
Another moving example of what a person with integrity and the honest desire to accomplish something for the good of everyone will say when the necessary courage is there. Thank you!
Julian is free!
(sort of...)
Hallelujah!
We need many more Chris Hedges esp in these troubled times, the masses of the globe are in turmoil and utter subjugation.
Momentous sermon by contemporary truthteller and prophet in his own right, Chris Hedges!
HE'S FREE!!!
Thank you Chris.
Thank you Chris.
Thanks for reminding us these terrible times under evil powers are nothing new, but must be exposed despite our our pain of knowing and fought with willful hope.
This was beautiful. May that first walk on the beach with the sand under his toes, the salt ocean on his skin, the first bush walk with spiderwebs full of early morning dew and butterflies everwhere, his family with him, may those moments be everything he's dreamt of 🙏🦋🕸🐚🌊💗
Thank you.
Finally 🤘🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Knowing Chris's journalistic integrity and having listened to this, Christianity has never been more appealing to me.
A man among men Chris has always inspired us to be better human beings. He has always spoken truth to power.
rev. chris hedges has done more than any other individual outside julian's family to seek justice for him. god bless you, chris, for your continued courage.
I felt so many things listening to Chris speak, especially a deep appreciation.
A Principle of Morality is Courage.
Truth telling exposes the sincerity of the matter.
Love & sweet blessings Chris Hedges
This is wonderful news. After many years of struggle,imprisonment and terrible suffering of an innocent,great, incredibly brave journalist,truth,justice,equality and freedom have finally won. I hope that after decades of slavery,oppression,monstrous suffering and repeated genocide every few years,the Palestinians will soon see justice,freedom and an independent state within the borders set decades ago by the UN. I thank all the wonderful people who fight in every possible way for the victory of the highest values,especially such an exceptional one as Chris Hedges.
June 25th will be from this date forward Julian Assange day.
Thank you Chris!!
Fantastically powerful, as ever.
Thank you, Chris Hedges, for the extraordinary human people you are to all of us.
Freedom will come.
Free Palestine 🌿🕊
Truth to powers of the elites of greed and arrogance.
You are a light of wisdom with empathy and a consciousness for all humanity.
🙏❤️🌎🌍🌏🌿🕊🎵🎶🎵✨️💫✨️
“It’s amazing how much panic one honest man can spread among a multitude of hypocrites.”
― Thomas Sowell
“You have to start with the truth. The truth is the only way that we can get anywhere. Because any decision-making that is based upon lies or ignorance can't lead to a good conclusion.”
― Julian Assange
What a Powerful speech ❤
Another one of Chris's poignant Sermons. Gives one a chance to look in the mirror and ask if I have been letting my soul atrophy and die in exchange for a comfortable secure family and career life...
Those of us who refuse to bow to evil, keep their idealism, in pursuit of truth above all else while professing same; will likely end as martyrs. ie. no good deed goes unpunished.
Chris, you are the hero of all the current opressed humanity.
Prayers for your protection and prosperity.
Deepest beauty....
Yet, we still have Black Panthers languishing in prison and exiled‼️⛓️💔🇺🇸
1 of 2: *This is how you always need to vote:*
We must fully resist and _always vote_ against (& less authoritarian than) both the Republican *and* Democratic Parties- including AOC, Jamaal Bowman, all of the squad, Bernie Sanders, Edward Markey, the justice democrats, Biden & all other democrats. Vote in every single election- at all levels. And also _endorse or anti-endorse,_ in all elections you can, for outside your voting jurisdiction.
For _all_ public positions. And this same strategy applies against the same one or more party-monopolies in _all_ countries worldwide.
Real progressives will never be Democratic Members or Democratic loyalists. Never vote for _any_ Republican member or loyalist either.
You can always _write-in_ an anti-authoritarian person if no candidates for a position fit that bill. This will continuously reduce the power of _all_ authoritarian parties in the party monopolies. Until our task is complete.
Repeat strategy for all new authoritarian parties that emerge.

Thank you for this Sermon Chris, it was my first from you and I highly respect your heart and the Good work you do.
You have it Right my Friend, you have dedicated your Life to fighting for Justice for all.
Very happy for Julian but also saddened by the fact that he has spent almost a decade of his Life betrayed by the system, suffering behind bars for the innocent within the Empire’s system.
The brutal obvious truth of JC : Speak truth to power, get nailed to a cross, even if your father is God. And it’s going to be hell .
The opening heartfelt speech brought tears to my eyes 😢😢
Hurrah Julian is free. Though they have extracted a cost for his flight home which nobody believes was necessary. But Heh they just wanted to rub his supporters noses in the dirt. I have no doubt a fund will pay this off within hours. Now must come the response and vindication for his lifes work.
JULIAN ASSANGE IS FREE 💐💐💐💐💐🦋🦋🦋 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I like this preacher!
Ha ha ha
❤ thank you Chris
Wow! Thank you!🙏🏼
Chrissy has a crush on juli
What you say, is the most important truth and in the end we will all be judged for our misdeeds and our deeds. In this end, what one believes and what one does in the face of opposition is the most noblest of acts. Those good people who stand by and do nothing including myself, are guilty, as I am no saint, will all be judged in the end. Redemption and will is all one has in the end.... This was beautiful Chris.
now i know the deep meaning of the term "satan" even when i am agnostic, in a situation when a malignant spiteful corrupted ungeist is manifesting in a most obvious way perceptible demanding, even in a moment of truth to bow down to the lies of this "satan"
I very much appreciate your contact
Caucasian isn't a race and manuals aren't either !
This is where Chris Hedges was meant to be.
Sublime … sermon … music
Thank you Chris.
brilliant Chris, that was gripping. was carried away to the edge of Nirvana....
❤
Thanks Chris
Thank You!
Must see
nice
Amen.
❤
No sound what is this news Assange is free ?
FREEDOM IS A CONSTANT STRUGGLE.
Assange should NOT plea guilty. He did NOTHING WRONG AND IS A HEROOF THE PEOPLE!
Chris Hedges is an American treasure
And one of my greatest teachers
There may be two things we don’t agree on
And then there was the wealth of opportunity and education, which is what springs from listening to Chris Hedges Work
Thank you, Chris
Peace and love, brother
Vote for Cornell West
May Julian and his family be able to heal from this awful situation they have had to endure for all these years.
Blessed be all of us who strive for truth, liberty, transparency and integrity.
Thank you Chris for all that you do to for humanity to. Watching from New Zealand with respect and gratitude ❤🙏❤

WHERE THE HERO DIES
PaulTeich©️10/31/2023
A poem about a person who stands on a pulpit before a crowd
Condemning violence and confronting the lovelessness of the planet
This person is in the way of those who think they should be heroes
Who are would be heroes?
And who have been manipulated by the powers that be to think they are doing the right thing
All conflicts end in negotiation
So the actual conflict of death and pain is actually only a business opportunity
The powers that be don’t want to pass up
Where the hero dies
It’s about the man who stands on the pulpit
Preaching peace and love and poetry
Save the world
And is killed by the onslaught of those who think they should be heroes
Of those who think they would be heroes
Of those would be heroes
Who have been brainwashed to think that
Killing a pacifist would be a good idea
Think that Pontius pilot was wrong
And perhaps Barbarus Would’ve been a better choice
And another hero
Not a would be
Not a should be
As told by someone else to be
But perhaps also there
Because they think God is on their side
The side of peace,
The side of love
The side of poetry
The side of pacifism
That, perhaps God has never been on the same side of a conflict where are two opposite warring factions that are the same?
God is on their side
George Carlin asked could someone be mistaken?
Could someone be wasting their time?
Could it be everyone?
Where the hero dies
It’s not in the plane, shut down by the man who dropped the bomb
Where the hero dies is not behind the gun
And fax sending out projectiles for a mile
That’s bullets by the way
Where the hero dies is not on the battlefield
We have been misled
Where the hero dies is the pulpit
Where the person who preaches has been trampled by the soldier who has been manipulated to think that God is on their side
The preacher of peace takes the pulpit
And hunker down to save the world
At the same time, the misguided soldiers, who are simply making money for the man
And increasing stock prices, and dividends for the man
Are Manning up to kill anyone weaker than them
Instead of hunkering down to save the world
Where the dieses is where the person who has hunker down to save the world is trampled and murdered by those who have been manipulated and brainwashed to think that they should hate the sin and kill the sinner
And that is a very man up thing to do
They could also hunker down to hate the sin, but love the sinner
And worship the dove of peace instead of the eagle of war
Where the dies is where the philosopher statesman who hunkers down
To preach peace is actually shot to keep the profits up by the people who don’t actually know why they’re shooting
When politics becomes the shadow cast by big business over the bewildered herd
Profit, less peace replaced by raining war on our heads to increase the next quarter profits dividends and stock price shall return every quarter
The voice in the wilderness has spoken. You have heard. Now what
