SHOCKING Praise for bin Laden on TikTok
Further illustrating the rampant far-Left indoctrination of our young people, Osama bin Laden’s “Letter to America,” which celebrated Al-Qaeda’s 9/11 attack on the U.S., has gone viral on TikTok, with young people sympathizing with bin Laden and condemning America.
Online personality and pro-Palestinian activist Lynette Adkins urged her over 175,000 TikTok followers on Tuesday to read the words of the terrorist mastermind behind the 9/11 attacks.
“I need everyone to stop what they’re doing right now and go read- It’s literally two pages. Go read ‘A Letter to America,” Adkins said the video. “And please come back here and just let me know what you think because I feel like I’m going through, like, an existential crisis right now and a lot of people are, so I just need someone else to be feeling this.”
Her video received roughly 800,000 views and over 80,000 likes on TikTok.
Of course, TikTok usage is extremely prevalent among young people, even though we’ve repeatedly warned against the dangers of TikTok as spyware for the Chinese Communist Party.
And now we see another inherent danger with TikTok: the spreading of anti-American propaganda. How insane is it that young people who weren’t alive in 2001 are praising the justifications of bin Laden for murdering almost 3,000 Americans?
The young people in the TikTok videos are whining about having an existential crisis as they find themselves agreeing with bin Laden’s anti-American sentiments. Do you want an existential crisis? Try being one of the children whose mom or dad was killed on 9/11. Try seeing your family and neighbors slaughtered by Hamas terrorists. That’s an existential crisis.
What does this TikTok video say about how colleges and universities are indoctrinating the young people in our country? Nothing good. In fact, the public support was so vocal for bin Laden that the White House had to put out a statement condemning the celebration of American deaths.
Where does this indoctrination come from? It clearly comes from our public schools and college campuses. And if you just so happen to fight back against this indoctrination in public school, then you’re labeled a terrorist by the Biden Administration. Something has to drastically change in our public school education system and on our college campuses.
Let’s pivot to our colleges in America. As we’ve been reporting, rampant antisemitic attacks are taking place against Jewish students, causing them to fear for their lives.
We were successful in defending a student at Rutgers University who found himself targeted by school officials after reporting pro-Hamas propaganda being promoted on campus. Why won’t the college presidents come out and condemn what’s taking place?
ACLJ Senior Counsel for Global Affairs Mike Pompeo joined the broadcast to discuss his new article, “Deep Rot in the Deep State,” and the difficulty of running an Administration that’s filled with subversive underminers.
There are a lot of good folks who work at the State Department who are just doing their jobs, but there are way too many that are the sand in the gearbox. And that is especially true in Republican Administrations. It’s even more true in an Administration like ours, which was disruptive, right? . . . We knew that we would have this resistance, and we were focused on executing and making sure that the people who worked for us executed it. The frustrating thing, Jordan, is you can’t fire them. There are three unions at the State Department, so every employee is covered by a collective bargaining agreement. You add to that the civil service rules. And pretty soon, you have a machine that seeks to have a mind of its own. It is an enormous leadership challenge.
As I said when the leaked State Department memo came out, Biden must rid his Administration of these detractors. The world is watching us, and you have to believe our enemies see the gap widening between Biden and his Administration.
The ACLJ can’t defend Jewish American students on college campuses or bring the Israeli hostages home without your help. We are in the middle of our Faith & Freedom Drive to fund our legal efforts. Donate today, and your gift will be doubled immediately.
Today’s Sekulow broadcast fully condemned the radicalization displayed on the TikTok video. U.S. Rep. Claudia Tenney (NY-24) also joined our broadcast to explain lawmakers’ recent attempts to cut funding to college campuses promoting antisemitic propaganda.
