In reality, the U.S. did not supply arms to or train bin Laden, but certainly misguided foreign policy “experts” had the U.S. training other mujahedin in Afghanistan in the late 1980s. Does this justify the murder of 3000 innocent civilians? In Hasan Piker’s mind, yes. His Leftist fanbase eats this stuff up with two spoons, ecstatic at finding another reason to hate and denigrate America.
Meanwhile, why is Hasan Piker such a jerk? This kind of behavior is very common among Leftists and their Muslim allies. Islamic supremacist spokesmen in the U.S., including many who claim to be “moderate” and are lauded by the intelligentsia as wise, broad-minded, tolerant people who are busy building bridges of understanding between Muslims and non-Muslims, are all too often immature, arrogant, foul-mouthed creeps whose idea of a discussion is to hurl insults. The hate fairly oozes from their pores. There are many, many examples of this; Reza Aslan and Omid Safi stand out.
In this, Hasan Piker and his coreligionists are also imitating Muhammad, the man they believe to be an “excellent example” of conduct, as the Qur’an calls him (33:21).
Consider these hadiths (thanks to Sam Shamoun):
Ubayy b. Ka’b told that he heard God’s messenger say, “If anyone proudly asserts his descent in the manner of the pre-Islamic people, tell him to bite his father’s penis, and do not use a euphemism.” It is transmitted in Sarah [sic] as-sunna. (Mishkat Al Masabih, English Translation With Explanatory Notes By Dr. James Robson [Sh. Muhammad Ashraf Publishers, Booksellers & Exporters, Lahore, Pakistan, Reprinted 1994], Volume II, Book XXIV — General Behaviour, Chapter XIII. Boasting and Party-Spirit, p. 1021)
And:
“Then Urwah said: “Muhammad, tell me: if you extirpate your tribesmen, have you ever heard of any of the Arabs who destroyed his own race before you? And if the contrary comes to pass, by God I see both prominent people and rabble who are likely to flee and leave you.” Abu Bakr said, “Go suck the clitoris of al-Lat!” — al-Lat was the idol of Thaqif, which they used to worship — “Would we flee and leave him?” (The History of al-Tabari — The Victory of Islam, translated by Michael Fishbein [State University of New York Press (SUNY), Albany 1997], Volume VIII (8), p. 76)
And in the words of Abu Bakr As-Sideeq to ‘Urwah: “Suck Al-Lat’s clitoris!” — there is a permissibility of speaking plainly the name of the private parts if there is some benefit to be gained thereby, just as he [Muhammad] permitted a plain response to the one who made the claims of the Jahiliyyah (i.e. claims of tribal superiority), by saying: “Bite your father’s penis!”[3] And for every situation there is a (fitting) saying. (Provisions for the Hereafter (Mukhtasar Zad Al-Ma’ad), by Imam Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah, summarized by Imam Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab At-Tamimi [Darussalam Publishers & Distributors, First Edition: September 2003], Chapter. Regarding the Story of Al-Hudaibiyyah, p. 383; source; words within brackets ours)
Today, Hasan Piker’s sixth-grade-playground behavior is what passes on the Left for serious discussion.
“The Young Turks’ Hasan Piker Says ‘America Deserved 9/11’, Mocks Dan Crenshaw’s War Injury: ‘Brave Soldier F***ed His Eye Hole,’” by Amanda Prestigiacomo, Daily Wire, August 21, 2019:
Reviewing a clip of U.S. Military veteran Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) talking to podcast host Joe Rogan, Hasan Piker of “The Young Turks” mocked Crenshaw’s lost eye, a wartime injury, in vile fashion and said America “deserved” 9/11.
“This guy has the understanding of foreign policy of, like, a 12-year-old. What the f***. What the f*** is wrong with this dude? Didn’t he go to war and like literally lose his eye because some mujahideen — a brave f***ing soldier — f***ed his eye hole with their d***?” Piker said, during a Twitch livestream on Tuesday night.
He added, “Isn’t that how he f***ing lost his dumba** eye, because he got his f***ing eye hole f***ed, by a brave soldier?”
Cenk’s Nephew called the man who took @DanCrenshawTX‘s eye a “brave fucking soldier” This is what happens when you’re gifted a job by your Uncle you know you didn’t earn & it eats away at your mental state. pic.twitter.com/BohESrbvJ6

Piker posted a series of tweets on Tuesday mocking Crenshaw for discussing Saturday Night Live’s Pete Davidson’s joking about the Republican’s injury, though Crenshaw swiftly accepted Davidson’s apology and appeared alongside the comedian on SNL.
“You may be surprised to hear that he’s a congressional candidate from Texas and not a hitman in a porno movie,” Davidson tastelessly joked in 2018. “I’m sorry. I know he lost his eye in war or whatever.”…
Crenshaw, a former Navy SEAL, lost his eye in an IED explosion during his third deployment in Afghanistan….
During the same stream, Piker said the United States “deserved” to have the Twin Towers targeted by suicide bombers on September 11, 2001, killing 3,000 innocents.
In tweets addressing the remark, Piker wrote: “Americas [sic] foreign policy decisions has lead [sic] to 911. this would’ve been a controversial thing to say in 2001. stop being a f***ing idiot.”
“We supplied arms to and trained bin laden. we destabilized the region long before 911. and now we’re stuck in perpetual war, which dan crenshaw was trying to justify in that clip. it’s exactly this kind of attitude that has sent thousands of young men and women overseas to die,” he said in a follow-up tweet.

This is the thanks America gets for helping Afghanis fight the Russians and for protecting the Kurds and Shiites from Saddam Hussein with the No Fly Zone.
The Middle East has been unstable and lacking basic democratic rights since 622. Who let this little Mohammedan prick into the United States?
mortimer says
The war between the Shi’ites and Sunnites is 14 centuries old, going back to the day after Mohammed was murdered by his closest associates, Abu Bakr and Omar, who then secretly buried him in the night under his bed and then proclaimed the caliphate of Abu Bakr the following morning. The followers of Mohammed’s son-in-law, Ali, were taken off guard by the assassination of Mohammed and being unprepared to fight had no choice but to accept the result.
Shi’Ite Iran and Iraq are wedged between two solidly Sunnite zones and tension and war between the factions will be endless, periodic and inevitable.
All Islamic sects believe they have the ‘correct’ political doctrine of Islam which they believe they are obligated to impose on all. This guarantees that the Levant, Iran and Pakistan will continue to be unstable.

mortimer says
Muslims always blame their victims for ‘deserving’ to be attacked, even when the victims did nothing whatsoever to provoke.
The existence, prosperity and high-function of dirty kafirs is enough to make Muslims want to conquer, subjugate them and exploit them. Mohammed encouraged Muslims to attack the Roman and Persian empires, the top two and strongest empires of his time.
As emissaries to the Ottoman Governate of Tripolitania, Jefferson and Quincy, two future United States presidents, questioned the ambassador from Tripolitana as to why his government (under the suzerainty of the Ottoman Empire) was so hostile to the new American republic even though America had done nothing to provoke any such animosity. Ambassador Adja answered them, as they reported to the Continental Congress, ‘that it was founded on the Laws of their Prophet, that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as Prisoners, and that every Musselman who should be slain in Battle was sure to go to Paradise’.
– Thomas Jefferson, quoted from letter To the Continental Congress about the brutal pirate attacks of the Muslim Ottoman Barbary (1801–1805 and 1815)
Why do Americans refuse to learn from Thomas Jefferson?

Oh yes, he should either be killed or should have an arm and a leg amputated from opposite sides of his body. Hmmm, that’s pretty harsh too. Maybe the third choice of exile should be given him.

Sad to say, but the USA did deserve, and should’ve expected 9/11.
We can attribute that to our ignorance, NOT our arrogance.
From 9/12/2001 till today, despite countless other deadly Islamic Jihad endorsed killings we are still told by the media, two of our Presidents, and our children’s teachers, that Islam is a religion of peace.

Since 1966 every pack of cigarettes has come with an explicit warning that smoking causes cancer and will kill you.
Millions of dollars have been spent on public service announcements for five decades to reiterate this point.
When people, despite being repeatedly warned of this fact still choose to allow their lungs to Coexist with cigarette smoke are ultimately killed for doing so, wouldn’t you agree their deaths were “deserved”?
Are they innocent, or are they STUPID?
America had learned about and understood the ideology of Islam since the Barbary Wars of the early 1800’s yet we attempted to Coexist, graciously allowing Islam a place in our society anyway.
When American freedom dies a slow cancer style death from Islam exposure it won’t be because we were innocent…it will be because we were STUPID !!!

Most Americans know little about Islam–in fact, most of what the average person hears about Islam is whitewash.
Jihad Watch and other Anti-Jihadists are working to educate people. but do not believe that anyone deserves to be murdered by Jihadists.

Joe says
Everyone agrees that Al-Qaeda (AQ) was started by the CIA. The CIA put together a list of 20,000 to 40,000 Muslims who would support jihad. Both the CIA and AQ agree on this.
Then it gets more troubling. A list like that takes at least a 1,000 man hours per month to maintain but probably much more. For example, it has to support communication in a number of languages and countries. Osama bin Laden (OBL) was going to college during the week, and someone flew him to Afghanistan on the weekends to be the figurehead of AQ. Without any Saudi royals agreeing to head AQ, OBL was the best they (probably the CIA) could do.
Who supported the list? It wasn’t OBL. He was incapable of that, and he needed a lot of manpower that did not have.
No one deserved 911. That was pure evil, but there seems to be a cover-up for three reasons. The official story is that the planes knocked the buildings down, despite the fact that no plane hit building 7, and that the buildings pancaked.
1. Vertical Fall: If the buildings pancaked, they would have fallen over, but they didn’t. A skyscraper will only fall in its footprint if the bottom is blown out of the building. There is no other possibility.
2. Free-Fall Speed: The buildings fell at free-fall speed of 10 to 11 seconds. If the buildings pancaked, they would have taken more than 20 seconds. Besides, can’t people watch the falls and see they didn’t pancake?
3. No Superstructure: If the buildings pancake, the superstructure remains, but it didn’t. The buildings did not pancake.
There is no other explanation. The buildings fell because of controlled demolition.
Yes, the planes hit the buildings (2 out of 3, anyway), but there was more to it than that. We blamed AQ, but they had help. Who helped them? It might not have anything to do with how AQ was formed, but it certainly had a lot to do with how AQ was maintained.
Maybe the CIA was not involved, but their “fingerprints” are all over it.
