The narrator for the film states that the United States is the true \u201cterrorist\u201d party while adding that the 9\/11 \u201cattacks were the result of the United States\u2019 policy of aggression against the Muslim world.\u201d He also claims that the U.S. and its allies \u201claunched a military invasion without considering the reasonable stance of the Islamic Emirate on the issue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Taliban has never accepted responsibility for harboring and working with al Qaeda prior to 9\/11. The two remain intertwined to this day,\u201d the Long War Journal points out.<\/p>\n<p>Only weeks after the 9\/11 attacks, Taliban founder Mullah Omar, who would not hand over Osama Bin Laden to America, &nbsp;said in an interview, \u201cAmerica has created the evil that is attacking it,\u201d adding that this \u201cevil will not disappear even if I die and Osama [bin Laden] dies and others die.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Long War Journal adds:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"11.882352941176\">\n<p><em>In mid-2019, for instance, the Taliban claimed that 9\/11 was a \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.longwarjournal.org\/archives\/2019\/07\/taliban-justifies-9-11-attack-blaming-americas-interventionist-policies.php\">heavy slap on their dark faces<\/a>,\u201d adding it \u201cwas the consequence of their interventionist policies and not our doing.\u201d&nbsp;\u2026&nbsp; In more recent weeks, the Taliban\u2019s spokesman has claimed that there is \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/world\/2021\/08\/26\/taliban-bin-laden\/\">no proof<\/a>\u201d Osama bin Laden was even responsible for 9\/11. This is an obvious lie, as al Qaeda itself has repeatedly boasted of its responsibility for the hijackings.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The narrator celebrates the Unites States\u2019 withdrawal from Afghanistan: &nbsp;\u201cPraise be to Allah, the sincere struggle of the Afghans has paid off, the invaders are flowing from Afghanistan and their puppet regime is collapsed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.911memorial.org\/911-faqs\">9\/11 Memorial<\/a> noted:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"27\">\n<p><em>\u201c9\/11\u201d&nbsp;is shorthand for four coordinated terrorist attacks carried out by al-Qaeda, an Islamist extremist group, that occurred on the morning of September 11, 2001. Nineteen&nbsp;terrorists from al-Qaeda hijacked four commercial airplanes, deliberately crashing two of the planes into the upper floors of the North and South Towers of the World Trade Center complex and a third plane into the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia. The Twin Towers ultimately collapsed because of the damage sustained from the impacts and the resulting fires. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>After learning about the other attacks, passengers on the fourth hijacked plane, Flight 93, fought back, and the plane was crashed into an empty field in western Pennsylvania about 20 minutes by air from Washington, D.C. The attacks killed 2,977 people&nbsp;from 93 nations: 2,753 people were killed in New York; 184 people were killed at the Pentagon; and 40 people were killed on Flight 93. \u2026Al-Qaeda was based in Afghanistan. They operated training camps there, and openly lived in the country with the support of the Taliban, an Islamist group that ruled the country.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The U.S. State Department <a href=\"https:\/\/2001-2009.state.gov\/s\/ct\/rls\/wh\/6947.htm\">reported<\/a> that Bin Laden said after the attacks, \u201c\u2026we calculated in advance the number of casualties from the enemy, who would be killed based on the position of the tower. We calculated that the floors that would be hit would be three or four floors. I was the most optimistic of them all\u2026due to my experience in this field, I was thinking that the fire from the gas in the plane would melt the iron structure of the building and collapse the area where the plane hit and all the floors above it only. This is all that we had hoped for.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The State Department also stated:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"10\">\n<p>The world has responded with an unprecedented coalition against international terrorism. In the first 100 days of the war, President George W. Bush increased America\u2019s homeland security and built a worldwide coalition that:&nbsp;Began to destroy al-Qaeda\u2019s grip on Afghanistan by driving the Taliban from power.&nbsp;Disrupted al-Qaeda\u2019s global operations and terrorist financing networks.&nbsp;Destroyed al-Qaeda terrorist training camps.&nbsp;Helped the innocent people of Afghanistan recover from the Taliban\u2019s reign of terror. \u2026 In Afghanistan, we have seen al-Qaeda\u2019s vision for the world. The leadership of al-Qaeda had great influence in Afghanistan and was supported by the Taliban regime.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
