Where’s he justifying it? He’s simply pointing out the double standards when the West policies the world how they can get away with whatever atrocities they want.

Plus, you furthered his point by calling the western atrocious as “conflicts”.

What's the cost of water salination? California has a coast.

That's a false dichotomy, because nonreligious people find some other ways to create an "us vs them" mindset. We see it all the time.

It's also a fallacy to group all religions under one banner and claim that they all say the same. Even among what you call "organized religion", while there is some overlap between say Islam and Judaism/Christianity, once you start looking at things deeper, you'll see how Islam comes out different, and as a Muslim, I'd say on top.
