Guardian forced to delete viral Bin Laden letter

Oh dear. It seems that the world’s wokest newspaper has blundered, again. The Guardian has today been forced to remove a letter by, er, Osama Bin Laden after it went viral on TikTok. The letter had proudly been up on the Graun’s website since 2002, explaining how the terror chief launched his war against the United States in part because of its support of Israel. But now in its place is a sign with the headline ‘Removed: document’ and a brief explainer:

This page previously displayed a document containing, in translation, the full text of Osama bin Laden’s ‘letter to the American people’, as reported in the Observer on Sunday 24 November 2002. The document, which was published here on the same day, was removed on 15 November 2023.

A Guardian spokesperson added in a statement to 404 Media that:

The transcript published on our website 20 years ago has been widely shared today on social media without its original context.
