TikTok removes hashtag for Osama bin Laden’s ‘Letter to America’ calls for violent Jihad
The Guardian pulled the full-text letter from its website after people cited it on TikTok and X with over 25.6 million views.
News that young Americans are circulating Osama bin Laden’s ‘Letter to America’ is shocking and poses a grave threat to our national security.
The Guardian post made over 20 years ago, described Osama bin Laden’s ‘Letter to America” as “A chilling new message from Osama bin Laden is being circulated among British Islamic extremists, calling for attacks on civilians and describing the 'Islamic nation' as 'eager for martyrdom'.”
The British Government issued its strongest warnings to its citizens declaring that bin Laden’s al-Qaeda attacks against the UK were inevitable. They understood that we must take these terrorists at their word and that it wasn’t a matter of if, but when. As this ‘Letter to America’ circulates once again, we must treat this letter with the same degree of seriousness as the first day it was received.
The clear call for violent Jihad against America and the West is the dominant message, much like the current legitimization of the US “resist” movement condoning the actions of Palestinian-Hamas, Palestinian-Islamic Jihad, and other groups involved in attacking Israeli civilians from Gaza and the West Bank in Israel.
In the letter, Osama bin issued a direct threat to the West: 'Anyone who tries to destroy our villages and cities, then we are going to destroy their villages and cities. Anyone who steals our fortunes, then we must destroy their economy. Anyone who kills our civilians, then we are going to kill their civilians.'

The Pro-Hamas Movement on our college campuses and co-opted by BLM and many non-profit organizations, is now engaging in linking violent calls for Jihad against America in the form of TikTok promotion of this infamous letter.
Critics argue that TikTok, owned by China's ByteDance, may be manipulating content to align with anti-U.S. sentiments. The Institute for Strategic Dialogue uncovered 41 "Letter to America" videos on TikTok, revealing a troubling undercurrent. Despite TikTok's attempt to quell the controversy, videos related to the letter remain accessible under the search term "Bin Laden." This development raises questions about TikTok's influence on shaping narratives that run counter to U.S. interests. As discussions spill over to other platforms like X, calls for TikTok's accountability and even potential bans are gaining momentum.
A journalist, Yashar Ali, posted on X stating the videos received 25.6 million views.
43% of Americans are reporting they regularly get their ‘news’ from the Communist Chinese-owned TikTok app, up from 33% in 2022. Help force the sale of this CCP Spy App to an American company and end the CCP’s Marxist agenda and propagandized information warfare, serving to stoke hate and violence, further dividing our country.
