Le Régime Bush

Sub-titled “Les 52 plus dangereux dignitaries américains” this French pack was designed by Thierry Meyssan (b. 1957). He is a French journalist, conspiracy theorist and political activist, better known for his books: 9/11: The Big Lie (2002) and Before Our Very Eyes, Fake Wars and Big Lies: From 9/11 to Donald Trump (2019). This pack challenges the official account of events of the September 11 terrorist attacks and the subsequent rationale for the invasion of Iraq in 2003. Photographs of the key figures are shown by category in the four suits: spades - organisation; diamonds - exploitation; clubs -repression; hearts - communication. An extra card advertises Meyssan’s book on 9/11. See the box►

The box provides the following information (translated from the French):

“A behind the scenes look of the Bush administration reveals a team, carrying out a "neo-conservative" revolution in total opposition with the history and values of their country. George W. Bush seized power with the complicity of the Supreme Court and despite electoral results that were against him; a global citizen surveillance system was set up through the USA Patriot Act; the Army was allowed to intervene in domestic policy; a propaganda machine was set up; the country abdicated its right to self-rule and has launched itself into a series of colonial campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq. What we are witnessing is not simply a change in policies but the emergence of a new regime that threatens liberty in America and international peace”.
