费萨尔· 萨伊德·阿尔木塔是一位作家及人道主义者。他曾是伊拉克的一名难民。他在2009年创建了“全球凡人人道主义运动”组织，以支持人权和个人价值的实现——在不依赖宗教的前提下。

近期他对VOA谈了对那些想要将宗教分离出政府的人们给予支持的重要性。
“There is a growing number of Arab millennials between 20 and 30 who advocating for human rights and secular liberal values,” Faisal said. “I think that the United States and the West should stand in solidarity with these people.”
“阿拉伯20-30岁的千禧一代中，拥护人权和凡人自由价值的人原来越多。”他说道。“我认为美国和西方社会应该坚定地和这些人站在一起”。

费萨尔说在中东政治是个难题。他解释说，在许多阿拉伯国家，同性恋者可能被处死。
He does not believe Islam will accept homosexuality. He says both the Islamic State and Al-Qaida terror groups use their religious beliefs to justify killing homosexuals by throwing them from tall buildings.
他不相信伊斯兰教会接受同性恋。他称伊斯兰政权和“基地组织”使用宗教信仰来证明将同性恋者从高楼上扔下去、杀死他们是正确的。
On his Facebook page, Faisal said if religions do not change to accept homosexual and women’s rights, “then religions need to die, not people.”
在费萨尔的脸书页面上，他写道：如果宗教不作出改变接受同性恋者和妇女的权益，“那么该死的是宗教，而不是人们”。
