TikTok Influencer Promotes Bin Laden's Manifesto
A recent TikTok influencer, Lynette Adkins, inadvertently sparked a viral conversation about Osama bin Laden's manifesto. In a now-deleted TikTok video, Adkins urged her followers to read a document that turned out to be bin Laden's justification for the 9/11 attacks.
