War on Terror: the Board Game is $44.95 in the Makers Market / Boing Boing Bazaar.

This is one bad ass board game for 2 – 6 players. It will bring out the nastiest, greediest, darkest, most paranoid aspects of your character. It can make you cry, or feel on top of the world (or, at least, in charge of it). Comes with all the ingredients of a good night in: WMDs, nuclear weapons and suicide bombings. The Axis of Evil is a spinner in the middle of the board. And it even comes with a balaclava (ski mask) that has the word “EVIL” written on the forehead. All we ask is that you play nice when wearing the balaclava. Or start a revolution. Do what you want.
