Surely clickbait, but Miles Mathis did actually write an article a few weeks back arguing that The Onion was a CIA-linked site and a lot of the stories there frequently included an extra layer to provide chuckles for the intelligence community laughing at the general public, like a wink that only a certain few would get, with occasional truths being stated as a 'fuck you' to those who wouldn't be able to do anything with the knowledge. Sure enough, if you search the Onion site for pieces on Cheney and Rumsfeld, there are a couple of very sly nods that will make anyone reading this thread pause for thought. The piece above is almost certainly clickbait, but the Intel community likes to laugh as much as the rest of us. The same thinking would probably apply to the smart-ass who officially named the site where the WTC rubble was taken 'Fresh Landkill'.
