“we told them that instead of spending money on statues, why didn’t they help our children who are dying of malnutrition? The European scholars rejected that, saying, `This money is only for statues.’ "
“What do you expect from a country when you just ostracize them and isolate them and send in cruise missiles and their children are dying?”
“In our religion, if anything is harmless, we just leave it. If money is going to statues while children are dying of malnutrition next door, then that makes it harmful, and we destroy it.”
