Pentagon witness criticizes Virginia school's 9/11 curriculum

Critics argue that this approach downplays the impact of Islamist terrorism by focusing more on anti-Muslim bias than the facts of the 9/11 terrorist acts. The district states its goal is to honor victims and promote inclusivity, but some experts say omitting the extremist ideology behind the attacks diminishes the lesson's importance.
