That’s what Donald Trump claimed. He claimed to have heard people cheering, even though he was miles away at the time. He’s repeated the story many many many times, and his supporters are repeating him.
It was a regular FOX News Channel allegation. Afghans were cheering, Iraqis were cheering, Syrians were cheering, Libyans were cheering, Gazans were cheering, Somalis in Minnesota were cheering, Hasan Piker was cheering, Zohran Mamdani was cheering…
Pick your “Muslims I Don’t Like” Flavor of the Month. They were cheering, I tell you.

I distinctly remember hearing:
There were rooftop cheers from a Muslim community in New Jersey.
There was cheering in Gaza.
That rooftop thing was a continual news cycle item for weeks. I recall it being debunked but none of the details.
