Mohsen Mahdawi, dictated this statement from ICE detention to his lawyers:
I don’t want people to lose hope. Stay positive and believe in the inevitability of justice.
This is hearing is part of the democratic system, as it prevents a tyrant from having unchecked power.
I am in prison, but am not prisoned.
A system of democracy guarantees freedom of speech. Speaking of Palestine doesn’t not only qualify as freedom of speech but it is also about our humanity.
Keep the hope alive.
I will see you under ths sun.
