Point A Finger & Three Will Point Back At You

“They’re using the divide and control strategy.” That’s what many say. Assuming that it’s true, wouldn’t that imply that we’re dividable and if we are then isn’t that our fault? Of course that assumption itself is built on another assumption, a ridiculous one that assumes we were already united to begin with before the dividing and controlling started. I believe this applies not only to us but also to all people. Point a finger at someone, and three will point back at you. Take responsibility for your own actions. When you do that, you, you, you… will be in control. Knowledge is power. Control is power. Drima is just being Drima.

    Did you nick that quote from me ? I got it from a collection of Jamaican proverbs.
    Anyways..
    “They’re using the divide and control strategy” who ? the Jooz ? the “West”
    “assumes we were already united to begin” who ? Sudan ? the Ummah ?

    Divide and rule, yes. Politics is politics. I buy my olive oil @ both Ahmed and Hamid’s stores. I don’t mind them competing for customers. I wouldn’t want every grocer in town to agree on the price of olive oil. If I don’t like Ahmed’s prices or his behavior I might tell him what a nice guy Hamid is. Just to keep him alert.
