Legitimately interesting. The post is phrased as a question without an answer, so I see why people misinterpreted it, though.

Yeh that is the gag.

A similar meme is "Saddam Hussain had WMDs"

This is obejcitevly correct, at ne point Saddam Hussain did possess WMDs. Sarin and Antrhax which are WMDs as per the Geneva convention during the iran iraq war, but by 2003 he had no active program or stock pile

I meant that the answer isn't apparent in the meme itself, it requires prior knowledge or further research.
