Monkey see, monkey do

This caught my eye today. National Geographic is a fine institution. They bring us the latest discoveries about God's creation on a daily basis. But today, this is one of their lead stories:

Monkeys use false alarms to scam food?

Looks like they've discovered that some monkeys are smart enough to create a false alarm call which scares their mates into dropping their food to hide so that the smart monkey can take the food. This is seen as a practise that is important to primate evolution.

Well, guess who's at the top of the primate tree? And doesn't the above scenario sound familiar?

This stategy is classic false flag terrorism.

Let's terrify a population by flying planes into buildings. Sear it into the brains of the world's population using CNN coverage 24/7. Create a false threat called the "War on Terror". Whilst the people are cowering from fear, snatch their freedoms away and impose "Homeland Security" to make us feel secure.

Or this one...let's create a global financial crisis. Whilst they're distracted watching their friends and family lose their jobs and homes, let's raid everyone's superannuation, the sheep won't notice until they retire a few years down the track. When they realise they've lost years of contributions down the toilet, we'll be untouchable.

Or how about this...let's ramp up the swine flu warning to 6 (pandemic) on the WHO scale so that we can now impose martial law and mandatory innoculations wherever we see fit anywhere on the globe. Again, whilst the people are in fear, they will tolerate their loss of freedom if they think it's for the common good. What about all those school children travelling interstate from Melbourne, they get compulsory home detention for a week. What about all those business people coming from Melbourne? How come they're immune and not contageous?

Fear is a tool. Fear is a weapon. We humans, we supreme primates, have mastered the art of manipulation through fear. It is, however, the easiest weapon on earth to disarm. Truth drives out false fear. Faith and love drives out legitimate fear. We have the choice to embrace or reject the fear, whether it be imagined or real.
