Shadow WarThere is only one war. There has only ever been one war. This is the war between the rich and the poor. The poor do not, however, realize that they are at war with the rich because rich people never step out onto the field of battle to face them. The rich have, instead, devised a stratagem that enables them to fight their war by proxy: a stratagem that employs politics, economics, race and religion to convince the poor that they have other enemies. This stratagem is also used to impose a regimented, social and economic order upon the poor that designates some of them to be workers and some soldiers. The poor workers both produce - and pay for the production of - weapons with terrible destructive power. These weapons - once produced - are then handed over to the poor soldiers who dutifully march out and use them to destroy one another. This is the very essence of the process by which the rich consolidate their age old rule and fabulous wealth. What we must bear in mind here is that the rich do not distinguish between poor workers and poor soldiers - we are all expendable - we are all just grist for the mill: oil for the machinery of war. So the poor tear each other to pieces fighting a war that they can never win. They will always lose because they never get to face their true enemy: the rich, face to face upon the field of battle. This is the shadow war. This is the war between the rich and the poor. This is the war that ultimately defines all of human history.
