The original goal of bin laden was to get the US to overreact and waste all their money.
... mission accomplished? Also, the taliban are back in power in afganistan....
-
The terrorists won when the PATRIOT [sic] Act passed.

Blowback from US funding fundamentalists to destabilize the country
-
Then counterargument for that point I've seen is supposedly he only added that to his plans after it started happening.
I have yet to dig into researching his manifestos/plans to independently verify that.
-
What he really wanted to do was kick the USA out of the Middle East because he didn’t like how much influence they had over the Saudi royal family.

I mean..
gestures around to everything
They already won. 9/11 was the tipping point where shit started collapsing.
-
1990s was the peak prosperity of US civilization. From best music to best promise of hope and wealth distribution. 9/11 attacks were the point of the beginning of the end really.
-
Completely disagree. Modern music is super good. So many crazy talented artists and such a delicious infusion of genres. So good.
-
Everyone says the machines put us in a late 90s Matrix because it was the peak and it keeps the people happy so they can use us as batteries.
But it seems more likely that they put us in the late 90s so we can re-live the downfall of humanity as punishment.
-
If you look at suicide rates 1998 was the lowest in history. Like 2 years later Clinton signed a bill consolidating defense contractors down to 5 companies with a guaranteed blank check and a pinky swear they wouldn’t take advantage.
We’ve had war for 25 years straight ever since. It’s crippling us at home and stifling the human species as a whole.

And it was the goal of 9/11

Obviously fake... FBI too busy protecting Tesla dealerships to do anything else.
-
I said it before what's the difference between the terrorists hell bent on destroying the US and the Trump administration ... Efficiency

Reminds me of this absolute The Onion classic: '9/11 Conspiracy Theories Ridiculous' - Al Qaeda

Also this classic Seanbaby article http://www.seanbaby.com/news/terrorists.htm

"Bush's administration, they're a....den of jackals" gets me every time

On a mildly interesting note, I have never seen this below.

Ah 2014 Onion. The innocence.

It went just as well as the War on Drugs.
(Hint: Drugs won.)

Proceeds to email everything to an intern at Time Magazine.

The sleeper cells are living up to their name.

This is so weird, I've used Google translate on this image several times and keep getting different results for what the ticker says. I've gotten:
- It's time to go on a long-term cruise.
- The truth is that the ship is not under the influence of the wind, and the ship is not under the influence of the wind.
- The last thing I want to do is to go to the bathroom.
- And the noise is not that loud, it ...
I also got something about the bottom of the ocean being a layer of sand on top of another layer of sand, but didn't get a chance to copy it
Wtf is going on here?
-
It's just gibberish in Arabic script. The pc they wrote it on doesn't even support Arabic as the letters don't join up.
-
It’s random letters. The font-rendering is not correct and all the letters are disjoined (whereas Arabic is cursive with different shapes for letter at the start, middle or end of the word).
Arabic also doesn’t write most vowels. So imagine an AI making sense of something that would have just enough vowels to understand if it weren’t for the lack of spaces between the words, with the twist that the letters are actually completely random.
Edit: actually it seems to be actual text rendered backwards
-
It's like that "boot to the head" sketch, but with tarrifs instead of boots
