Item #102993
A deck of 52 card, plus 2 jokers, and an additional Saddam card. During the 2003 invasion of Iraq by a United States-led coalition, the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency developed a set of playing cards (200 decks manufactured by Liberty Playing Cards) to help troops identify the most-wanted members of President Saddam Hussein's government, mostly high-ranking members of the Iraqi Regional Branch of the Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party or members of the Revolutionary Command Council; among them were some of Hussein's family members. The cards were officially named the "personality identification playing cards". As of 2021, all but 4 of the 52 most wanted have been either killed or captured, eleven of whom have been released. This deck was made by Gemaco, and sold by Kardwell International.
