"Learn to anticipate." Courrier International, a Paris-based weekly (tagline: Anticipate Daily!), solves 9/11 after the fact: the World Trade Center architects should have stopped at about 50 floors. Look! The hijacked planes missed the shorter targets. Yay! Viva la Photoshop! Viva la Idiocy! Remember the Maginot Line! Ad by Saatchi & Saatchi France.

Extra points for the timing.

7. That's more of a black humor cartoon than an exploitation.
