Unpopular opinion: The 9/11 hijackers weren't cowardly. What they did was hard. It took guts. That's not a compliment. It's an honest assessment of what we're up against. I'm not sure why people feel a need to call them cowards.https://twitter.com/SenBillNelson/status/1039480675655671808 …
Willing to commit evil, yes. Brainwashed, no. All the evidence I'm aware of indicates they knew what they were doing, knew why they were doing it, and did it willingly.

I am not speaking brainwashed as forced or unaware of what they were doing but a more connotative meaning of believing an irrational and rigid religious belief system which justified their actions to themselves. I would say Evangelicals who support Trump are brainwashed too.

I wouldn’t use the word “brainwashed” that way, but I understand your point.
