“America deserved 9/11” didn’t start as a mainstream political idea. It moved there through a pipeline.
This video breaks down how terror apologia spreads from activist circles into classrooms, campus unrest, media platforms, and eventually electoral politics. It examines the role of CAIR’s funding and political alliances, the figures who echo or normalize this rhetoric, and how narratives that excuse Islamist terrorism are reframed as moral or historical arguments.
When terrorism is portrayed as “inevitable” or “provoked,” accountability disappears, and extremist ideas gain legitimacy. This isn’t accidental. It’s the result of a long-term strategy that reshapes how violence, victims, and responsibility are understood.
Understanding that the pipeline is essential to recognizing how radical ideas move quietly into positions of influence.
