On Sunday, the day after the twentieth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks launched by the terrorist group al Qaeda that murdered roughly 3,000 Americans, famed journalist Lara Logan slammed Twitter for permitting the Taliban, which America attacked in 2001 for harboring al-Qaeda, to freely use Twitter while Twitter censored Americans.

Along with a video showing Anas Haqqani, a leader of the Haqqani network, she tweeted: “Twitter has no problem censoring Americans & giving a platform to the Haqqani network that has killed thousands of Afghan civilians and more than 10 000 Afghan soldiers & policemen — by conservative estimates. Has America surrendered to tyranny in all forms?”
