Feisal Abdul Rauf

I condemn everyone and anyone who commits acts of terrorism. And Hamas has committed acts of terrorism.

My life has been devoted to peacemaking.

I have never made a threat. I've never made a threat, never expressed a threat, never - I've never - I would never threaten violence ever, because I am a man of peace, dedicated to peace.

I have to ask Allah's forgiveness and not get angry, because they come to me out of love, and it's not fitting that I should turn to them in hatred.

The great curse of modern political life is incrementalism.

To increase aid to the Pakistan government when religious freedom is not upheld is tantamount to an anti-Christian foreign policy.
