Ignorant Young Savages on TikTok Praise Osama bin Ladin's "Letter to America" Justifying His Terrorist Attacks

This is what 30 years of Randi Weingarten and her fellow radicals have delivered unto us: Stupid, ignorant children who know nothing except What Pronouns They Can Choose and that any terrorist attack on Western civilians can be justified.

The text of an inflammatory "letter to America" from 9/11 mastermind Osama bin Laden has gone viral on TikTok and drawn praise from young users -- and US lawmakers from both sides of the aisle are blasting the China-owned app for promoting "terrorist propaganda."

In the letter, bin Laden claimed that he orchestrated the deadly attacks on the World Trade Center that killed nearly 3,000 Americans because the US "attacked us in Palestine."

Bin Laden called the creation of Israel a "crime which must be erased." He also claimed that the AIDS epidemic was "a Satanic American Invention" and objected to US companies allowing women to have jobs, fuming, "You use women to serve passengers, visitors, and strangers to increase your profit margins."

The antisemitic tirade went on to assert that in the US, Jews "control your policies, media and economy."

The Guardian, which had published the full text of the letter in 2002, pulled it down on Wednesday, citing the fact in a statement that it was being "widely shared on social media without the full context. Therefore we have decided to take it down and direct readers to the news article that originally contextualized it instead."

The TikTok trend appears to have been jumpstarted by Lynette Adkins -- a social media influencer with 12 million followers who has been profiled in the Los Angeles Times.

In her video, which has received nearly 100,000 likes and more than 5,500 comments since it was posted Wednesday, Adkins told her followers to "stop what they're doing right now and go read a letter to America."

Adkins followed up with several other posts, including one in which she discussed "three movies to watch after you've read 'a letter to America'" and another in which she reacted to the Guardian taking down the text and declared "America is losing the PR war bad."

"The Guardian taking that post down is actually one of the worst things that they could've done. I don't know who was behind it or what the reasoning was, but I feel like it literally just confirmed everything that we read in the letter," Adkins said.

When reached for comment, a TikTok spokesperson said "content promoting this letter clearly violates our rules on supporting any form of terrorism" and added that the company was "proactively and aggressively removing this content and investigating how it got onto our platform."

The same people who try to get YouTubers demonetized for laughing at the failure of The Marvels also claim a special exemption to every platform's clear rule against direct incitement of violence.

Is the FBI going to open surveillance cases of these stupid terrorist leftwingers or nah? "Protected first amendment activity," huh? Weird how it's only protected first amendment activity when we're talking about antifa, BLM, and actual supporters of Islamic terrorism.
