I haven't seen it yet, so I don't know if he said more than what you write.
What you describe is that he asks of Muslims everywhere to identify with Hamas and then to distance themselves from them. Does he address growing anti-muslim racism? Because from what you write it indeed sounds as if he appeals to human decency towards one side while ignoring the other.
No one except antisemites blames Jews for what Israel does, but on the other hand the Islamic world is blamed for Hamas terror and asked to distance themselves from it. Those are double standards.
So instead of writing long texts, you maybe should watch the video instead of accusing him of being „one sided“?
Lovely idea and guess what, in the meantime I did. That doesn't change anything about the other comment's content and that it depicts one-sidedness.
The speech was slightly better than the summary in the comment I replied to. I have different remarks and criticism of the speech now, but I don't really want to discuss those.
