🚨 BREAKING: In a surprising move today, The Guardian removed Osama bin Laden's "Letter To America" today after having posted it since November 24, 2002! The reason? It was going viral on Tiktok. Muslim terrorist groups don’t hate us because of our culture. The real reason is our support for Israel.(twitter.com)

An interesting development, and I think this shows another (of many) example of Israel's attempts to control the narrative.

Yeah, Osama makes some good points. If we weren't with Israel, the problems with Islam would all go away.

And what did we do? We got entangled with Islam, spent trillions that are gone, thousands of us Americans died and for what? A foreign country?
