Just a Thought
One of the best ways to maintain rulership over a people is to keep them divided and distracted. In this way, they cannot unite and remove rulership that they find oppressive or unworthy. (The best way to maintain rulership would be to keep everyone happy but that's not really an option.) We see that today. After 9/11 Americans were briefly allowed to unite against a common foe. Once it was realized that there wasn't a clear, obvious foe to face, a 'bad guy' like in the movies, we were quickly resplintered. Certainly, there was a target we were given, a specific face to put on the enemy but that face couldn't be tracked down and there was no proof that said individual had anything to do with the specific event that he was being blamed for and now he's not being officially sought for that event. Not that anybody really knows that.
