A Tunisian-born scientist wanted to derail a passenger train in Canada said in a newspaper interview published Wednesday his ai
m was to protest the U.S.-led occupation forces in Afghanistan.
"My aim is very simple: to give them a message," Chiheb Esseghaier told the daily National Post.
"But the problem is that Canada, the Canadian government I mean, it don't want to listen."
"Canada go and hurt Muslims in Afghanistan and they took their land and they kill them, and supporting Americans who kill women and babies," he said.
"And after that, what do they do, Canada? The Canadian government they start to cry out 'terrorism, terrorism.' Like someone, who make fire and after that he say 'smoke, smoke.'"
