Quotation Marks "Comments on suicide bombing, Islam in prisons, and preaching about hell" Ted Olsen
August 5, 2002
"Here in New York, we don't encounter too many fundamentalist Christians, but out there in the hinterlands, they're everywhere."
"If we do not stop them, radical Islamists will use prisons, packed with angry and resentful men, to put an evil twist on [an old] message: Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses—yearning to get even."
"Some freedom fighters adopt martyrdom or suicide bombing, while others opt for other measures. But all these struggles serve the continued intifada for freedom. Therefore, we support all these causes."
"It isn't sexy enough anymore."
