As awful as it may to realize it, I think it is important we understand that this is how these people both humans and non-humans are thinking. We should study the stages of genocide and commit to ourselves and others every day that we refuse to feed into the genocide program against humanity, and that we will not live in denial that this is happening all over the world, and has happened many, many times. Only we can stop it by shifting our consciousness.

The 8 Stages of Genocide
==The 8 Stages of Genocide==

Genocide is a process that develops in stages that are predictable but not unalterable.  At each stage, preventive measures can stop it. The process is not linear. Logically, the later stages must be preceded by the earlier stages.  But all stages continue to operate throughout the process that has been set up as the genocidal agenda.

1. CLASSIFICATION: All cultures have categories to distinguish people into “us and them” by ethnicity, race, religion, or nationality: German and Jew, Hutu and Tutsi. Bipolar societies that lack mixed categories, such as Rwanda and Burundi, are the most likely to have genocide. The main preventive measure at this early stage is to develop universalistic institutions that transcend ethnic or racial divisions, that actively promote tolerance and understanding, and that promote classifications that transcend the divisions. This search for common ground is vital to early prevention of genocide.

2. SYMBOLIZATION: We give names or other symbols to the classifications. We name people Jews or Gypsies, or distinguish them by colors or dress; and apply the symbols to members of groups. Classification and symbolization are universally human and do not necessarily result in genocide unless they lead to the next stage, dehumanization. When classification symbols are combined with hatred, these symbols may be forced upon unwilling members of pariah groups: the yellow star for Jews under Nazi rule, the blue scarf for people from the Eastern Zone in Khmer Rouge Cambodia. To combat symbolization, hate symbols can be legally forbidden (swastikas) as can hate speech. Group marking like gang clothing or tribal scarring can be outlawed, as well. The problem is that legal limitations will fail if unsupported by popular cultural enforcement. Though Hutu and Tutsi were forbidden words in Burundi until the 1980’s, code-words replaced them. If widely supported, however, denial of symbolization can be powerful, as it was in Bulgaria, where the government refused to supply enough yellow badges and at least eighty percent of Jews did not wear them, depriving the yellow star of its significance as a Nazi symbol for Jews.

3. DEHUMANIZATION: One group denies the humanity of the other group. Members of it are equated with animals, vermin, insects or diseases. Dehumanization overcomes the normal human revulsion against murder. At this stage, hate propaganda in print and on hate radios is used to vilify the victim group. In combating this dehumanization, incitement to genocide should not be confused with protected speech. Genocidal societies lack constitutional protection for countervailing speech, and should be treated differently than democracies. Local and international leaders should condemn the use of hate speech and make it culturally unacceptable. Leaders who incite genocide should be banned from international travel and have their foreign finances frozen. Hate radio stations should be shut down, and hate propaganda banned. Hate crimes and atrocities that harm others should have consequences and be promptly punished, they should never be tolerated.

4. ORGANIZATION: Genocide is always organized, usually by the state, often using militias to provide deniability of state responsibility (the Janjaweed in Darfur.) Sometimes organization is informal (Hindu mobs led by local RSS militants) or decentralized (terrorist groups.) Special army units or militias are often trained and armed. Unfortunately its clear the US intelligence has been organizing these army units trained to kill for the power elite interests for a long time. Plans are made for genocidal killings. To combat this stage, membership activity in these militias should be outlawed. Groups that come together for the express purpose of killing or harming other groups, should be outlawed. Personally I feel this will only be effective with disclosure, because many people on earth do not know why they have been brainwashed to hate others so intensively, which grows into these militias designed to kill all who oppose them or their belief systems.

5. POLARIZATION: Extremists drive the groups apart. The NAA knows this tactic very well, they do everything to polarize people, and make their behaviors and belief systems very extreme and intolerant of others, we can see this with the NAA promotion of violent religions on the earth. NAA groom these Hate groups to broadcast polarizing propaganda that promotes tyranny and total social control. Extremist terrorism targets moderates, Moderates from the perpetrators’ own group are most able to stop genocide, so are the first to be arrested and killed. We can see that because the Global agenda of the NAA, there is no effective prevention in place, because it interferes with the rape and pillage of the economic structure in these demographic areas, the power elite want these people to kill themselves first.

6. PREPARATION: Victims are identified and separated out because of their ethnic or religious identity. Death lists are drawn up. Members of victim groups are forced to wear identifying symbols. Their property is expropriated. They are often segregated into ghettoes, deported into concentration camps, or confined to a famine-struck region and starved. At this stage, a Genocide Emergency must be declared. If the political will of the great powers, regional alliances, or the U.N. Security Council can be mobilized, armed international intervention should be prepared, or heavy assistance provided to the victim group to prepare for its self-defense. Otherwise, at least humanitarian assistance should be organized by the U.N. and private relief groups for the inevitable tide of refugees to come.

7. EXTERMINATION begins, and quickly becomes the mass killing legally called “genocide.” It is extermination to the killers because they do not believe their victims to be fully human. When it is sponsored by the state, the armed forces often work with militias to do the killing. Sometimes the genocide results in revenge killings by groups against each other, creating the downward whirlpool-like cycle of bilateral genocide (as in Burundi). At this stage, only rapid and overwhelming armed intervention can stop genocide. Unfortunately we can see that not much is done when it has escalated to to this level, because it fits right in with the engineering of the death culture.

8. DENIAL is the eighth stage that always follows a genocide. [b]It is among the surest indicators of further genocidal massacres.[/b] The perpetrators of genocide dig up the mass graves, burn the bodies, try to cover up the evidence and intimidate the witnesses. They deny that they committed any crimes, and often blame what happened on the victims. It’s the perfect VV set up to promote blood sacrifice, murdering and then blame the victims of the atrocity to set up more cycles of the same. They block investigations of the crimes, and continue to govern until driven from power by force, when they flee into exile. There they remain with impunity, unless they are captured and a tribunal is established to try them.

[b]By understanding the formula for genocide we can see it when it is organizing its attack against the public, and stop ourselves from engaging in this divide and conquer strategy, and help to reeducate others so they too can see the genocidal campaign being wages against the people of earth.[/b]
