According to the newspaper the Tunisian-born scientist also appeared to offer a vaguely worded hint that he is far from unique: "I am only a drop of water in the sea. A detail," he is quoted as having repeated multiple times.
Esseghaier is also quoted saying that there is no such thing as moderate or radical Islam — that "there is only one Islam" and only one God.
He says he only became immersed in religion after arriving at the University of Sherbrooke, when he read from books and websites about Islam and joined a Muslim students' association and began attending a local mosque.
Beforehand, in his native Tunisia, Esseghaier says he didn't even grow his beard because his parents were constantly on him about what friends he was making. Esseghaier is quoted telling La Presse that, "I wasn't well," back in Tunisia.
Esseghaier has failed to hire a lawyer, dismissing the legitimacy of Canada's legal system. He insists he wants an attorney who will use the Qur'an as a reference instead of the Criminal Code.
