FBI Uncovers Al-Qaeda Plot To Just Sit Back And Enjoy Collapse Of United States
This is the funniest headline I have seen from The Onion since I found out about them. Well done!
It’s a classic but it was also one of my favorites
Does the writing make any sense?
It's not connected and going LTR instead of RTL, but it seems to say: "We are waiting now to allow the west to destroy itself under the burden of it's extreme special gluttony (greed)"
Original, but connected & RTL: "ننتظر الآن والسماح الغرب بتدمير نفسها تحت وطأة الشراهة الخاصة" Better phrasing & grammar: "**ننتظر الآن للسماح للغرب بتدمير نفسه تحت وطأة الشراهة المفرطة"
According to Google Lens:

The ship is located in the south of the country. It is located in the south of the country. It is located in the south of the country.
Yes, but where is the ship?
An oldie but a goodie. Makes me laugh every time I see this article.

Timeless, it just gets more and more relevant.
That picture tho is iconic. I know the article just by that picture. I should get it framed.
That dude is totally just chillin, he might crack a beer any moment!
let america cook
Yeah… last time we left a country to suffer thru its nazi leadership we got a full blown hitler. Maybe we shouldn’t let them burn.
The Cold Dead Corpse of Stalin: Pull up chair friends!
(yes I am aware the Soviets were not that keen on the Afghans).
We all know that there is a chance for Trump standing next to them and saying "Great leaders... Very successful... Doing something good for their country..."
Well, to be honest, they would be foolish to do anything else. As Sun Tzu wrote, "Never interrupt your opponent while he is in the middle of making a mistake."
The writing is on the walls… they just know how to read it.

The US are still completely unassailable militarily and economically. But a few spicy memes did the trick.
still regurgitating the same tired old nationalist propaganda. Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq: are these evidences of "unassailable" military might? just looking at one indicator, how is the dollar doing these days, comparatively speaking?
For now.
America has lost most of the wars it was involved in since world war 2. Operation Desert Storm is the only thing I can think that was a success from it's intended goals.
We can't even win a war against drugs, a non-sapient set of objects.
I meant an invasion of the US mainland.
The only people economically attacking USA are... Americans!
That was my point.
9/11 definitely sped things up, but it was more that profits come before everything else, and it's profitable to sew division.
I'd argue that 9/11 was successful in destabilizing the US and the precipitating event in the rise of US fascism. Capitalist greed was the accelerant
We were already well on our way to a fascist capitalistic hellhole after Nixon and Regan. 9/11 just allowed the mask to come off of parts of the fascism and solidified the cycle of economic downturn every few years.
Personally, I think it is the other way around. The Heritage Foundation existed long before 9/11. They just needed a way to offer centrists plausible deniability for handing over the reins of power.
I’d argue that isn’t exactly what they wanted… it’s like chopping down a tree and it lands on your house. Not ideal.
Also that russia has spent a boatload of money and effort to make this happen

And this is also what the billionaires want so they can be neofuedal kings

Capitalism certainly would have gotten there regardless, but there was more than just money pushing it along. Lust for power never fails to aid humanity in taking steps backwards
