Know Your Terrorist
Posted by Steve



Back in the good ole days (1986 to be precise), before anyone had ever heard of Al-Qaeda القاعدة‎, and back when all we had to fear was the Evil Empire and assorted thugs and demigods, it was easy to know who the terrorists were, thanks to bubble gum cards.

From the Daily Heller Vaults (a new occassional feature) comes TERRORIST ATTACK: America Figthts Back (distributed by Piedmont Candy Co. in Detroit, Michigan). In fact, this 1980s-era answer to Davey Crockett cards was considered so essential to national security that the producers didn't even include bubble gum (why make terrorism sweet?).

If you are looking for something more current, the WAR ON TERROR board game makes fighting terror fun.

Great job! I think the deck should be added to. It is nice to see some humor directed at the creaps that love 9/11.
