Sh. Hamza speaking as a human being

Lets break it down here:

When you use Apache helicopters, when you use F-16's against an armless people that have no means to defend themselves - that's simply wrong. Thats wrong in every moral tradition on this planet. It is wrong. It is not right. And it needs to be condemned. When you create an apartheid system that was denounced in South Africa as evil - and you create that system in a nother place, it has to be denounced as evil. You can't have something right in one place, and not right in another place. It has to be right all over, and it has to be wrong all over. And thats all we're asking for - an even playing field.


And here:

People are asking why the Muslims are angry. If you're not angry about the current social conditions, you're not alive. You're not alive. You don't have a human heart. If you're not angry about 50 million people in Africa that are suffering from AIDS and that we're spending .001% of what we're spending on weapons of mass destruction. We're spending billions of dollars to learn better ways of killing people, and that we're not putting that money towards better ways of healing people - that's wrong. It needs to be condemned, and we have to condemn what is wrong. And we have to honor people that stand along side of us. We have to honor them whatever their faith, whatever their traditions. We can disagree with them on certain things, but when they stand up for whats right - we should be there to affirm that.
