They are really feeling themselves right now. That comedown is gonna be a muthafukka...



I think the takeaway is that the message can be separated from the messenger; Bin Laden (peace be upon him).

Big man made legit points and had real grievances with US conduct in the middle east and in Saudi Arabia specifically. He told the Saudi royal family, his family that they don't need US troops on Saudi soil because he has an army to protect them.

As a US citizen 9/11 was wack sauce. An enormous L by any measure but I quickly came to the conclusion that in many ways 9/11 was a self inflicted wound. The US has done mad dirt around the world and often seemingly gets away with it. This was a case of the chickens coming home to roost and Osama was gonna tell their story.

Fast forward to today and his message still resonates because the US's conduct has not changed. Why would people's perception?

So we've come to a point where posters are actively supporting terrorism now? I've tried not to comment much on this issue because I've actually lived in this region and understand just how complex and emotional this issue is but some posters here are taking it too far.

Hamas is just as liable for what is going on right now as the Israeli government is. Palestine and Israel cannot be at peace until both they and the right-wing Israeli government have gone.

Not enough attention has been given to the dwindling support Netanyahu's administration was receiving prior to the 7th October attack. They were on their way out and now this attack has likely switched a lot of public opinion in Israel. Fear is the biggest motivator for right-wing support.

This clown's mask is fully off now

Does this guy not realise that the only reason Black Lives Matter exists is because black people in America have an extensive history of being murdered, raped and brutalised without reprieve?

Hamas doesn't care about Palestinians, why would they free the hostages just because Palestinian civilians are being killed?

TikTok ‘aggressively’ removing content praising Osama bin Laden after letter goes viral​

The social media platform TikTok said it is “aggressively” removing content that praises Osama bin Laden’s 2002 “Letter to America.”

The letter, published about a year after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, was bin Laden’s attempt to justify the targeting and killing of American civilians. It has been recirculating online recently.

Bin Laden was killed by U.S. forces in 2011.

Many videos supported bin Laden’s argument and urged others to read the letter in the wake of the United States’s support for Israel in its war against Hamas.
“Content promoting this letter clearly violates our rules on supporting any form of terrorism,” TikTok Policy posted on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter. “We are proactively and aggressively removing this content and investigating how it got onto our platform.”

TikTok said the number of videos supporting bin Laden’s message is small, although some videos have reportedly received hundreds of thousands of views and thousands of likes.
“This is not unique to TikTok and has appeared across multiple platforms and the media,” the post said.

In the post, “the media” references frustration from users aimed at The Guardian, which released a statement Wednesday that it removed a “previously displayed document” that contained the translated version of bin Laden’s letter.

The news organization said it published the letter the same day that bin Laden released it — Nov. 24, 2002 — and removed it Wednesday after the transcript had been “widely shared on social media without the full context.”
“Therefore we decided to take it down and direct readers instead to the news article that originally contextualized it,” The Guardian’s statement said.

The letter is a critique of American foreign policy and contains antisemitic and violent language. It criticizes American support for Israel’s occupation of Palestine.

TikTok is an app that is widely popular with young Americans, many of whom were born after the 9/11 attacks.

A nationwide poll released Thursday by Quinnipiac University, found that among voters aged 18-34, sympathy for Israelis sank from last month. About half — 52 percent — of young voters said their sympathies lie more with the Palestinians, a significant reversal from an October poll when more said they supported Israelis than Palestinians.

Coli war generals were wrong again. Remember all that Israel bit off more than they could chew, they are going to get slaughtered when they enter gaza. They gonna be fighting hezbollah, yemen on all fronts. They can't do street combat bla bla. All

All these protests and care will die down unfortunately and people will get back to their normal lives. JI feel it for the people in gaza but just like kony 2012, war in ukraine, prosecution of the Uyghurs after a while it dies down.
