How would YOU conquer a nation ?
10/17/2001 | Stopspin

Posted on 10/17/2001 2:45:18 PM PDT by Stopspin

If one wanted to conquer a people , how might it be done?

One scenario might be to separate the people in question into two groups .
Group 1-The Moderates .
Group 2-Everyone who does not accept the moderate label .

If the non-moderate influences were taken out of the equation , the nature of negotiations would surely be different .

In this example the questions become :
1-Can group 2[above]remain relevant ?
2-Will it remain relevant ?

How to conquer a nation? Easy. Set up a public school system. Staff it with a bunch of liberal teachers. Erode the national values imparted upon the children and turn them into brain-dead zombies. Once those children turn into the majority, let them elect presidents and legislators who will gut the national interest so the country simply implodes...

Ask Hillary. She wrote a college thesis about it.
Her plan is in working action.
I must admit, the bitch is brilliant.

We're not trying to 'conquer' a nation ... we've been hit and we're hitting back.

The major problem is not whether we will win the fight, but what will happen after the knock-down/take-out.

The terrorist nations have a gazillion kids that have been poluted with the 'hate America' filth.

If we take out Bin Laden, Khadaffi, Hussein etc., we still have the young 'uns to contend with.

It's a no good position we're in ... so my opinion is to make silt out of Afghanistan and let it be THE message to the world. We ain't playin' and ain't gonna' take no mo.

The other terrorist countries should be given the option of handing over the terrorists and their regimes or suffer the same fate.

How long before Saddam gets his nuke? Would he hesitate to use it?

I don't think so, ergo ... they must ALL be put on notice and Afghanistan is a great place to start. Hell ... how many people actually live in Afghanistan anyway? It's not like there's a huge population or something.

Nuke 'em before they nuke us.

And before all you anti-nukes jump on me ... let me ask you ... how long before Iraq, Iran, PALESTINE, North Korea, China etc., etc., get their nukes or use 'em on us? Do you really think this can all be politically negotiated away?

I, for one, don't think so.

And even if there was some kind of 'meaningful commitment' or 'treaty' promising not to nuke us ... do you believe 'em?

Me neither.

Teach the children, 'if it feels good, do it'..and 'the end justifies the means'...oops they already learned that from their brain-dead '60s values-challenged parents. Then they wonder why their children are so selfish and society is such a mess. Go figure.

I would gain control of the most powerful nation in the world
I would delude their minds into thinking that they had come from man's effort, instead of God's blessings;
I would promote an attitude of loving things and using people, instead of the other way around;
I would dupe entire states into relying on gambling for their state revenue;
I would convince people that character is not an issue when it comes to leadership;
I would make it legal to take the life of unborn babies;
I would make it socially acceptable to take one's own life, and invent machines to make it convenient;
I would cheapen human life as much as possible so that the life of animals are valued more than human beings;
I would take God out of the schools, where even the mention of His name was grounds for a lawsuit;
I would come up with drugs that sedate the mind and target the young, and I would get sports heroes to advertise them;
I would get control of the media, so that every night I could pollute the mind of every family member for my agenda;
I would attack the family, the backbone of any nation.
I would make divorce acceptable and easy, even fashionable. If the family crumbles, so does the nation;
I would compel people to express their most depraved fantasies on canvas and movie screens, and I would call it art;
I would convince the world that people are born homosexuals, and that their lifestyles should be accepted and marveled;
I would convince the people that right and wrong are determined by a few who call themselves authorities and refer to their agenda as politically correct;
I would persuade people that the church is irrelevant and out of date, and the Bible is for the naive;
I would dull the minds of Christians, and make them believe that prayer is not important, and that faithfulness and obedience are optional;
I guess I would leave things pretty much the way they are.

Well, seeing as how we've essentially implemented 6 of the 10 planks of the Communist Manifesto and are heading full speed into the remaining 4, I'd say Karl Marx had the best idea.

Bomb it into oblivian and then install your own people. You did not ask how to conquer a people.

Also, I believe that we have an obligation , to our kids , to assure a free future .
