Listen up, buttercup! This joke is dark, see? It's playing on the tragedy of the Twin Towers, implying the US can't play chess because they don't have towers anymore, like the chess pieces, towers. And England doesn't have a queen. Chess is a game of war and power, and this joke suggests these countries are crippled. You get it now, genius?
