TikTok says it has been "aggressively removing" hundreds of videos discussing a manifesto Osama bin Laden wrote in 2002 titled "Letter to America," which somewhat mysteriously resurfaced on the platform in recent days.
Some TikTok creators shared the document in light of the Israel-Hamas war, highlighting bin Laden's criticism of the U.S. government's involvement in the Middle East and support of Israel.
"Everyone should read it...However, be forewarned that this has left me very disillusioned," one TikTokker said.
Another creator on TikTok remarked: "I will never look at life the same. I will never look at this country the same. Please read it."
