4. How is this not a strawman? How does being asked about how one feels
about 911 relate to apologizing? I have spoken to a number of Muslims about 911 none of whom ever apologized about it nor have I ever felt anyone of them needed to apologize. I have read a number of commentaries by Muslims but I myself have never come across one that apologized for 911. These commentators have sought to explain it but explanations aren't apologies. Perhaps some have but I haven't simply come across them so it'd be nice if Ali actually cited examples.
