What have Julian Assange, Stephen Hawking and Noam Chomsky in common? They spoke the truth. Stephen Hawking left us with these words of wisdom “In a world that is in chaos politically, socially and environmentally, how can the human race sustain another 100 years.?”
Noam Chomsky echoes the same warning.
As an 82 year old Global Citizen, I concluded a long time ago: Only with Honesty, Truth and Justice can there be a healthy and peaceful future for our species, and plants and animals on the extinction list, and I don’t see any of it-anywhere.
Here is my peace appeal. http://www.baltimorechronicle.com/ol_symposium_jan03.html
Those who are trying to silence Julian Assange, and some wish him silent forever, are no different than the ‘Inquisitors” who burned Giordano Bruno at the stake, for trying to liberate humanity from falsehood and lies.
But today, as all life on this planet is at stake, we must give Julian Assange equal status as a courage’s truth loving human being, as Stephen Hawking and Noam Chomsky, for all our sake.
