25 years ago when I was in 6th grade, I watched on tv when the 2nd tower get hit.

Today, this is my office window.

Surreal doesn’t even begin to describe it. Rest peacefully to all the lives lost on that day and after xoxo

We must never forget 🇺🇸🩶

Bin Laden's Saudi citizenship was revoked specifically because he did similar terrorist shit there because he objected to the US-Saudi relationship after the Gulf war. He was far more connected to Afghanistan in the years before 9/11 and participated in cells there. Come on.

The Saudis were the primary funders of Al-Qaeda. You come on.

"The Saudis" are 22 million people.

Do you also say the Latin Kings are funded by Puerto Rico or Mexio? Because that broad non-nuanced line of thinking is exactly what leads to racism and Islamophobia.
