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 ?

#12 is a good post.

In the article at the top of this  link --  The U.S. -- A Modern Babylon?  -- are four types of thinking that will destroy a nation.  America has been taught well, has learned well and has spread the poison.  There is an excellent article here and an excerpt follows:  The Decline of a Nation

"The first stage moves from bondage to spiritual faith.
The second from spiritual faith to great courage.
The third stage moves from great courage to liberty.
The fourth stage moves from liberty to abundance.
The fifth stage moves from abundance to selfishness.
The sixth stage moves from selfishness to complacency.
The seventh stage moves from complacency to apathy.
The eighth stage moves from apathy to moral decay.
The ninth stage moves from moral decay to dependence.
And the tenth and last stage moves from dependence to bondage."
The Russian art of war:  J.R. Nyquist

The Chinese art of war:  J.R. Nyquist shows it's just beating the superior with the inferior

Excerpt:

"The Chinese method is to infiltrate their soldiers into strategic areas. Chinese soldiers might enter any country as workers, security guards or even refugees.  But if they are given rifles and bullets and food these "workers" can be formed into  regiments and divisions."
Think of COSCO and the military age men they have been smuggling into Canada and America.  Think of Panama, the island the Chinese have taken over offshore of Florida, and think of the "sleepers" who are Muslims throughout America.

As well, the World Council of Churches and the globalist media would urge Christians to ECUMENICALIZE and tolerate sin and compromise their beliefs for peace and safety.

The last piece I can find by J.R. Nyquist was dated Sept. 6, 2001, and was entitled:  The grand deception  -- That says a Lot!

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

Sun Tzu's Five Essentials of Victory:

He will win who knows when to fight and when not to fight.
He will win who knows how to handle both superior and inferior forces.
He will win whose army is animated by the same spirit throughout its ranks.
He will win who, prepared himself, waits to take the enemy unprepared.
He will win who has military capacity and is not interfered with by the sovereign.

Information is the most important element of war
Upon it depends an army's ability to move.

My pleasure.

Sun Tzu has lately become popular in the boardroom as well as the battlefield. A well-thumbed copy of "The Art of War" sits in my bookshelf at work.

Fat, lazy, and licentious societies are always easy prey for the leaner, more disciplined ones.

Question: How would you conquer a nation?

Response:Teach vice by word and deed, pacifism, class hatred, take money from one group to buy votes from another, teach tolerance, equality, the dignity of man(Clinton?), one man one vote, destroy marriages,teach the people that their nation exists to act as a joint stock corporation etc.

1. Establish a public school system.

2. Teach situational ethics.

3. Have the teachers systematically attack any value system that is holding the country together ar makes that country strong.

4. Wait a few years.
