Anatomy of Your Enemy

10 easy steps to create an enemy and start a war:

Listen closely because we will all see this weapon used in our lives.
It can be used on a society of the most ignorant to the most highly educated.
We need to see their tactics as a weapon against humanity and not as truth.

First step: create the enemy. Sometimes this will be done for you.

Second step: be sure the enemy you have chosen is nothing like you.
Find obvious differences like race, language, religion, dietary habits
fashion. Emphasize that their soldiers are not doing a job,
they are heartless murderers who enjoy killing!

Third step: Once these differences are established continue to reinforce them
with all disseminated information.

Fourth step: Have the media broadcast only the ruling party's information
this can be done through state run media.
Remember, in times of conflict all for-profit media repeats the ruling party's information.
Therefore all for-profit media becomes state-run.

Fifth step: show this enemy in actions that seem strange, militant, or different.
Always portray the enemy as non-human, evil, a killing machine.

Sixth step: Eliminate opposition to the ruling party.
Create an "Us versus Them" mentality. Leave no room for opinions in between.
One that does not support all actions of the ruling party should be considered a traitor.

Seventh step: Use nationalistic and/or religious symbols and rhetoric to define all actions.
This can be achieved by slogans such as "freedom loving people versus those who hate freedom."
This can also be achieved by the use of flags.

Eighth step: Align all actions with the dominant deity.
It is very effective to use terms like, "It is god's will" or "god bless our nation."

Ninth step: Design propaganda to show that your soldiers
have feelings, hopes, families, and loved ones.
Make it clear that your soldiers are doing a duty; they do not want or like to kill.

Tenth step: Create and atmosphere of fear, and instability
and then offer the ruling party as the only solutions to comfort the public's fears.
Remembering the fear of the unknown is always the strongest fear.

We are not countries. We are not nations. We are not religions.
We are not gods. We are not weapons. We are not ammunition. We are not killers.
We will NOT be tools.

Mother fuckers
I will not die
I will not kill
I will not be your slave
I will not fight your battle
I will not die on your battlefield
I will not fight for your wealth
I am not a fighter
I am a human being!!!

Kottonmouth Kings - Waking Life

the earth, the wind, the sky, the sea the birth, the life, the air we breathe
the truth, the lies, the in-betweens the hate, the love, the waking dream

all these beautiful things growin up in california
and all the memories from the people who knew ya
don't test mother nature she's a powerful person
don't get caught up in a bind for being stupid like abortion
these are the types of checks you can't cash
when you try to live long you can't afford to be an ass
when you walk into a party bein loud and obnoxious
when you walk up to a hottie with no respect or compliments
it's fuckin' nonsense, this life's a journey
all the people i meet and all the people actin' funny
like crash test dummies, people come people go
like liquor store dough, they accept it like a treasure
someone's pain is another man's pleasure
we need to stick together to make this beautiful place better
you're time's approachin in this life you're livin
in the aftermath of the new beginning

in the waking dream of all things unseen the cycle is complete
the universe has justified my life and set me free
A smile spreads across my face prepares me for the ride
the setting sun begins to set the perfect way to die

i'm sittin in the basement 'cause we about to get deep
final life's placement, being the topic of speech
what matters to you and me, what goal you've reached
when you're bodie's laid to rest and your soul's free to seek
with the knowledge you recieve you got a spot picked out
you know where you wanna go from what you learned about
some people call it hell and others say the spirit world
where you goin when you die? are you sure? for real?
you ask me where i'm headin i'm still tryin to look
I learned one thing so far, the answer's not in the book
many paths to choose from written by the hands of man
but they were all still alive, the information second hand
i don't understand, 'cause all religions have flaws
barkin' out commandments, how bout natures laws?
'cause when it's said and done, river's still gonna flow
the wind's gonna blow and tree's are still gonna grow
