“What I’m opposed to is a level of oppression, of barbarity that far exceeds anything ISIS would even imagine doing, and that's represented in the actions of governments like Australia and its allies like America. I'm condemning something which is infinitely greater in barbarity than anything ISIS has ever done or could even imagine doing. I'm condemning a set of policies that have cost the lives of over a million Iraqis.”“Islamic State: Hizb ut-Tahrir spokesman allied mission in Iraq and Syria ‘infinitely greater in barbarity,’” Australian Broadcasting Corporation, October 8, 2014, http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-10-08/allied-mission-more-barbaric-than-is-hizb-ut-tahrir-says/5799856.
