But, with the benefit of hindsight[2], it’s hard to completely deny any ulterior motives for broadcasting said celebrations.

AP is one of the most factual and unbiased news media out there. And the clip I shared just proves that. There was ZERO commentary accompanying it. It was just pure reporting of what actually happened. I mean the only other thing they could have done is simply not post the video. And would it be fair reporting if they intentionally suppressed the video?

is it sociologically-speaking strange for them to be glad that the biggest support of their rivals has received a retribution?

That's a fair question. But 9/11 wasn't a military war in which the US lost its soldiers or politicians who were responsible for war in the middle east. It was a cowardly suicide attack that took the lives of working innocent people who had absolutely nothing do with America's actions in the middle east. And celebrating that is in no way justifiable.

What would become of the Israeli people?”

Probably die fighting or migrate as refugees to other countries

If sainthood is achieved through suffering alone, then I’d argue they would make a good chance.

That was brutal lmao
