i keep thinking about my mom's claim that palestine was somehow responsible for 9/11. like her evidence she showed me was a video of a group of palestinians celebrating after 9/11 happened but i don't remember anyone talking to them to confirm they were celebrating 9/11. obviously the deaths of civilians shouldn't be celebrated but i don't remember anyone confirming they were celebrating the attack. but i'm certain there were groups of americans celebrating things like the hiroshima bombing. america has a lot of enemies i'm not surprised that palestinians don't like the usa. but also that's a strange conclusion to come to...? bc in 2001 palestine was still occupied by isreal and i don't even think hamas was formed yet. so they had no military at all and therefore no means of doing 9/11? if i think about the claim for 15 seconds all the logic falls apart.

#talk tag #osama bin laden was saudi arabian...#and even if someone told me 'well saudi arabians did 9/11' i wouldn't think the whole population of saudi arabia needs to be bombed #would not support that.#and these people are fucking weird treating me like i am dumb or wrong for caring.#boycotting calling for ceasefires and spreading awareness is literally the bare minimum.#i admit i only know the rough basics of the history of isreal-palestine #but i do know more than most my family and theyre acting like i dont. and are not willing to be educated.#bc they think me telling them theyre wrong and correcting them is some kind of power trip thing for me. bleh.#but anyway. you don't have to be a history expert to support the end of genocide and occupation u just have to have a heart i think
