Anti-Flag - Anatomy Of Your Enemy Lyrics
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 habitsFashion. emphasize that their soldiers are not doing a job,They are heatless murderers who enjoy killing!Third step: once these differences are established continue to reinforce themWith all disseminated information.Fourth step: have the media broadcast only the ruling partys informationThis can be done through state run media.Remember, in times of conflict all for-profit media repeats the ruling partys 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.[chorus:]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 gods will or God bless our nation.Ninth step: design propaganda to show that your soldiersHave feelings, hopes, families, and loved ones.Make it cleat that your soldiers are doing a duty; they do not want or like to kill.Tenth step: create and atmosphere of fear, and instabilityAnd then offer the ruling party as the only solutions to comfort the publics fears.Remembering the fear of the unknown is always the strongest fear.[chorus (repeat)]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.Im not a *****erI will not dieI will not killI will not be your slaveI will not fight your battleI will not die on your battlefieldI will not fight for your worldI am not a fighterIm in unityyy!!!
