How to eat your enemy

How to Eat Your Enemy is based on a 14th century Richard Coeur de Lion crusading manuscript and the infamous card deck from the Iraq war. Portraits of terrorists from the FBI Most Wanted Terrorist web site stare at the reader, while the recto side recounts King Richard’s apparent taste for the enemy flesh.
