    As an American, my opinion is the following:
    1) He wasn't wrong about America's support of Israel and their genocide of the Palestinians. As you can see today, after Oct 27, Israel killed 15000 palestinains for the 1500 they lost. They carpet bombed all Gaza and now are bombing the south. The whole world is protesting but governments aren't acting. Israel is claiming to be the victims, while ignoring international law, saying the whole world is "antisemitic" and trying to distract from the hypocrisy of their "desperate-to-belong-somewhere-therefore-justified-in-behaving-worse-than-the-nazis" actions, and America VETOED a ceasefire because they are Israel's bitch
    2) Anybody, Muslim or Jew or Chrsitan, who believes that a geographical area should be associated to one religion is a FUCKING JOKE. Your ethnicity is your passport. Your passport is not your race or your culture or your religion (which should be private). Jews thinking they "deserve" a land because they want it ONLY for the Jews is wrong. Muslims in Saudi Arabia the same. The Christian KKK whites in America. it's the same "extremism". People are people and if you create a country FOR A RELIGION, you create an "apartheid state" like Israel or Qatar, Myanmar, etc…, where people of that religion have different HUMAN RIGHTS than others because religion is the greatest justifier of any action, because if one side believes they were chosen and are "different" it immediately means superior. It's morally wrong and ANYONE who believes that doesn't deserve to share our planet because he lives "outside" (or in his mind, "above") the group.

    Do check why he is against US. The US, foreign entity, slowly started to make influence in his home country (which almost every person would hate).

    But if osama has done acts which have killed innocent people then that isnt allowed in Islam
