The
War Profiteers Card Deck exposes some of the real war criminals
in the US’s endless War of Terror. This is no Sunday bridge club.
These are individuals and institutions that stack the deck against
democracy in the rigged game of global power. Exposing their place
in the house of cards illuminates the links among corporations,
institutions, and government officials that profit from endless
war. The US War of Terror is not about liberation, democracy, or
UN resolutions. Plainly put, the War of Terror--whether in Iraq,
Colombia, Afghanistan, or the USA--is about subjugation, resource
extraction, and opening markets: a practice once referred to more
honestly as colonialism.
Each
suit in this deck represents a category of war profiteers:
|
|
|
Oil,
gas, and energy companies |
|
|
|
US
government officials (because they love you) |
|
|
|
Military
and defense contractors |
|
|
|
Heads
of industry, finance, media, policy, and hype |
This
deck is designed to support on-going campaigns against many of the
evil-doers present here. For more extensive information on each
of the players and how you can get involved, please refer to the
links section at the bottom of each profile.
