we need to bomb agrabah or it will cause major problems

[norseamd]

As it is right now a major Islamic terrorist stronghold named Agrabah is being ignored by American federal government officials and military generals. It is a major economic and political city that is central to the terrorism that Islamic Jihadists carry out every day. Is it a surprise that more Americans know about Agrabah and the costs of not bombing it than the Federal Government?

But for real man. All the smart ones know how bad it is. I have good sources.

Just look at this most wretched hive of scum and villeiny.

Here are a few 19th century pastel drawings back when it was a peaceful town under the iron fist of the Ottomans.

Here are some tourist pictures from the 1990s before the terrorists came and made the place into a vile place of unholyness.

Agrabah treats their tiger population extremely well. :wub:

I would support going after Latveria though.

 

[Indus]

I don't understand your original statement.. costs of not bombing an animated fictional town? Isn't Agrabah from Aladdin the movie?

I saw that. Was just going to post it but did not want to make 3 posts in a row.

Kinda confirms mentality of the GOP base. Scary.

they didn't poll democrats with the same questions though, did they? there could be a baseline of stupid people regardless of political affiliation.

edit: oh good they did. it looks like %19 of democrats surveyed also want to bomb agrabah:

We asked the Agrabah question to Dem primary voters too. They oppose bombing 'it' 36/19, while GOP supports bombing 'it' 30/13

also https://twitter.com/ppppolls/status/677876991278772225:

Trump is at 45% with Republicans who want to bomb Aladdin and only 22% with ones who don't want to bomb Aladdin

so the amount who want to bomb agrabah is %22 for non-trump republicans and %19 for democrats

also something to consider:

if i saw that on a poll, i would be tempted to vote yes just for the lulz

After a quick journey through Twitter I think it gets much worse than anything you might think even from this poll.

Reading comprehension fail. It's actually 30% vs 19%. No mention of statistical design or p-value, though.

At first I didn't think we should bomb Agrabah. They I found out they have a Genie, which is, apparently, a nuclear bomb!

I just looked at something and I'm forever scarred..

Look at how he leans in:

Are we in the Return of Jafar?
