Noor bin Laden, the niece of Osama Bin Laden, penned a letter of support to the United States on the anniversary of the September 11 attacks.
Osama Bin Laden was the founder of the pan-Islamic militant organization al-Qaeda, designated as a terrorist group by many around the world.
He is well known for being behind the September 11 attacks which led to the deaths of almost 3,000 people.
Osama Bin Laden was killed in Abbottabad, Pakistan on May 2, 2011, by a U.S. military special operations unit.
In her letter to the United States on September 11, 2020, Noor bin Laden wrote:
“For the past nineteen years, not a day has gone by since this horrible, tragic day that I haven’t thought of you, America, and grieved privately with you for all the innocent lives lost.
This is in part due to this inexplicable turn of fate that links me to these atrocious attacks, but more importantly because of my love for your country.”
She added that she would never forget the victims of the deadliest terror attack on American soil as well as the heroes who rushed to the scene.
She emphasized that her feelings and values are “diametrically opposed to the name that I bear.”
Bin Laden has been vocal about her support for United States President Donald Trump, lending her support for his re-election.
