(5,198 posts)to CREATE war, along with dumbing down and making education unaffordable, as THE most effective way to divide and conquer a people. It has been going on here folks, and we are in SORE need of a strategy to counter this before it develops further. I do believe that this is what we thought we were getting when we voted President Obama into office, whether we were 'illusionary' or not--a strategy to fight racism, war and to unite the country.
This is why Martin Luther King, JFK, RFK and I believe Lennon were assassinated--because they were powerful enough to influence the country to resist going down the path of war, racism and violence.
So one has to wonder IF President Obama were to hire peace advocates, environmentalists or to attempt turning the energy department green, what would happen to him?
The 1% want the rest of us to fight over the crumbs they leave us--and by using religion to foment infighting keeps the guns selling, the military ranks and jails filled and the war machine primed and oiled. Make no mistake. $$$ is being POURED into these racist churches and hate radio.
