Twitchy has reported in the past on the somewhat controversial State Dept. run Twitter account titled Think Again Turn Away that attempts to tell “some truths about terrorism,” and a tweet they posted yesterday is making news once again.

Also note that the account that prompted a response from the mightiest nation on Earth has less than 1500 followers.
Tax-dollars at work.
