The art of destroying a nation

The art of destroying a nation: To divide a nation, its people must be convinced or manipulated into believing that the values and traditions deemed vital are actually flawed and obsolete.  To achieve this division, one must examine the foundation on which these values were built, identify the cracks, and exploit them until the foundation becomes compromised.  Then sit back and watch your handiwork as everything collapses.  Once the dust settles, a new foundation can be built.
