Question

bin laden’s view on the attacks of 9/11
america has been filled with horror from north to south and east to west.... what america is tasting now is only a copy of what we have tasted.
our islamic nation has been tasting the same for more than 80 years of humiliation and disgrace, its sons killed and their blood spilled, its sanctities desecrated....
a million innocent children are dying at this time as we speak, killed in iraq without any guilt. we hear no denunciation, we hear no edict from the hereditary rulers.... israeli tanks rampage across palestine, in ramallah, rafah and beit jala and many other parts of the land of islam, and we do not hear anyone raising his voice or reacting. but when the sword fell upon america after 80 years, hypocrisy raised its head up high.
—osama bin laden, october 2001
what does bin laden view as the great hypocrisy with respect to muslim nations?
○ islamic nations have been humiliated for 80 years, but western countries have known no such humiliation.
○ the world is outraged by violent actions against westerners, but not by those against muslim nations and people.
○ israel has raised arms against muslims in islamic lands, but not against christians in the us.
○ the us involves itself in the affairs of muslim nations, but muslim nations are meant to stay quiet on american affairs.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Bin Laden's text states that violence and suffering against Muslim nations (like in Iraq, Palestine) go unaddressed, but when violence happens to America, there is outrage. This matches the claim of a double standard where the world reacts to harm against Westerners but not Muslims.

Answer:

The world is outraged by violent actions against Westerners, but not by those against Muslim nations and people.
