DEBUNKED: Disturbing Show of Support for 9/11 Hijackers
The Elk County Tea Party brought to our attention the following:
In case you are not able to read the sign below, it says,
We will be closed on Friday, September 11, 2009 to commemorate the martyrdom of Imam Ali (A.S.).
Imam Ali flew one of the planes into the twin towers.
Nice huh?
DEBUNKED
As one reader pointed out, this is a bit of a myth. Imam Ali was not a hijacker on 9/11, but rather Imam stands for religious leader and Ali was a 7th century religious figure, according to snopes and several other sources.
