10 easy steps to create an enemy and start a war

So.. this is not spamm.. just want to know ur opinion.. Is this true??

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
habits
fashion. 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 them
with all disseminated information.

Fourth step: Have the media broadcast only the ruling party's
information
this can be done through state run media.
Remember, in times of conflict all for-profit media repeats the
ruling party's 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.

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 god's
will" or "god bless our nation."

Ninth step: Design propaganda to show that your soldiers
have 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 instability
and then offer the ruling party as the only solutions to comfort
the public's fears.
Remembering the fear of the unknown is always the strongest
fear.

Yeap...

Like: We're in a state of war, everyone stay in your houses, and if the doorbell rings make sure you don't open it, cause it might be such a philty terrorist.

It's the ultimate way, how do they call this all again? Propaganda and manipulation or something...
