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 these tactics as a weapon against humanity and not as truth |
| THIS IS HOW TO CREATE AN ENEMY! |
| THIS IS HOW TO START A WAR! |
| THIS IS HOW TO CREATE AN ENEMY! |
| 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 is 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 |
| THIS IS HOW TO CREATE AN ENEMY. |
| THIS IS HOW TO START A WAR |
| THIS IS HOW TO CREATE AN ENEMY |
| 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 |
| 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 |
| THIS IS HOW TO CREATE AN ENEMY! |
| THIS IS HOW TO START A WAR! |
| THIS IS HOW TO CREATE AN ENEMY! |
| We are not countries. |
| We are not nations.(enemy) |
| We are not religions. |
| We are not gods. |
| We are not weapons. |
| We are not |
| ammunition.(enemy) 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!!! |
