I just found out that Osama Bin Laden's "Letter to America" has been doing its rounds on TikTok but I haven't seen anything about it been posted here on Lemmy about it. Perhaps people already know about it, I'm not sure. This is a link to the wayback machine. The original in the guardian has just been deleted after being online for 20 years.

Rightly so. Although his reasoning wrt Israel can be discussed, let's not forget that bottom line he and his club believe they'll earn their place in heaven by killing people who don't follow their religion. These people want to make the world worse

Literally the whole second point he wrote was how the only way to make things right is to completely and unquestionably follow the Quran until the day of judgement. I was kinda with him in the first half, and then he just jumped off a cliff

The main point he makes about Israel is that they are the wrong religion. Had it been sunnis cleansing Palestine from shiites he'd been all peachy bless their holy merciful balls with it
