ON SAMI HAMDI AGAIN I want to start by asking this: is it fair or reasonable to judge my son — journalist & political commentator Sami Hamdi — only by a single video from a source linked to Mossad? Please listen to the video below & share it if U can. Sami needs Ur solidarity. If you’re interested & have the time to know more, please read this: Sami was born in 1990 in London and holds a Master’s degree in Law from SOAS, University of London. He is the founder and editor of the online magazine The International Interest. He is married and a devoted husband & father of three young children. Sami loves football and supports Arsenal. He is friendly, tolerant, and has friends from diverse backgrounds. He is also a gifted speaker, often invited to share his insights at international conferences and on major media platforms. He has no criminal record and is not affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood or any other religious or political group. Yes, he is outspoken about the ongoing genocide in Gaza — but he is far from alone in that. Almost every human being with a conscience feels the same. Sami summed up his politics and worldview in a tweet pinned on his account: “Humanity can easily discern right and wrong. Racism, Islamophobia, anti-Semitism, genocide, and war crimes need no explanation or definitions for humanity to recognise them and stand firmly against them. I believe in humanity and the natural good that exists in human beings.” Today, in addition to being detained and facing potential deportation by the US government, Sami is the victim of a smear campaign aimed at defaming his reputation and blocking his entry into the United States To Americans in particular, I say this: Dear Americans, you are better than deporting a journalist for holding an opinion you could easily challenge with your own. Remember: free speech is enshrined in the First Amendment of your Constitution — and your government publishes an annual report on freedom of speech and human rights in every country. If America truly stands by the principles it promotes around the world, then it must also protect those same principles at home. Silencing a journalist for speaking his conscience undermines the very freedoms that define your nation. Let fairness, truth, and humanity — not fear or political pressure — guide your judgment.
