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…
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.
The terrorists won when the PATRIOT [sic] Act passed.
I said it before what’s the difference between the terrorists hell bent on destroying the US and the Trump administration … Efficiency
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?
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.
Ain’t that the truth.
Lol just ran it again and got:
The truth is that the ship is not covered with a shipwreck, and the ship is not covered with a shipwreck.
It’s perfect. I’m gonna start talking like this.
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
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.
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.
The Industrial Age which began in the late 18th century was seen as a downfall for humanity by various thinkers, writers, and critics at the time. John Stuart Mill raised concerns about the negative impacts of industrialization on society and the environment. He was spot on about the environment. I think he was probably spot on about the downfall of humanity, also.
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.
Completely disagree. Modern music is super good. So many crazy talented artists and such a delicious infusion of genres. So good.
If you know anything about the music industry and publishers today it a complete shit show. No I’m not talking about the artists out there, music will always evolve and art will always be expressed however. The industry is fucked and enshittified. Ticketmaster is a scam, concert prices are ridiculous and a scam, the market for artists is only about huge consolidated record publishers, everything is Spotify and subscription now. No the 90s were definitely peak if you’ve lived it and could access music on tapes and CDs and had a Discman. If you haven’t lived it you only have today’s experience and exposure to music. Content on Radio today is also shit. YouTube is the only a forum for independent artists with no chance of airwaves exposure.
I’m not interested in talking about the industry.
I agree. The days of albums and CDs, and record stores. In the 70s we were able to go to concerts and pay for tickets using our baby-sitting money, or our allowances. We saved up for albums. We had to save up, but it was affordable. Now parents are spending thousands of dollars to get their children to concerts. Seriously? WTF??
It went just as well as the War on Drugs.
(Hint: Drugs won.)
The sleeper cells are living up to their name.
Obviously fake… FBI too busy protecting Tesla dealerships to do anything else.
On a mildly interesting note, I have never seen this below.
