Phenomena and discourse in everyday life are often used as reference in making games. In line with that contained in the public discourse, the current game with the theme of the war against terrorism have high enthusiasm.

This paper will review the kaffiyeh as a deconstruction of the elements in the discourse of 'war on terror' and first person shooters games with the theme of the war on terror, through a design standpoint and social impacts caused by the theory of deconstruction by Derrida.
