Yes, this is indeed a microcosm of our political culture complete with people playing the role of the 'Generals' in our
completely corrupted media, supported by 'officers' watching for potential threats and ground 'troops' that take various actions against same.
It's far better to nip 'threats', in the bud, lest The People catch on to their known leaders being 'killed off'. Metaphorically speaking, of course.
In one roll, ever smiling, the 'Generals' gathering credibility from their audience by various proven, and layered methods, and, as required,
casting doubt on key truths by throwing negative meta-communications, seemingly aimed at one target, when in reality they are "speaking", indirectly, to the audience.
Also,
stealing the time of some lest they have time to
find the pearls buried in the completely concocted
garbage heap of 'knowledge'.
Recall the
eye-rolls when Ron Paul was spoken of on the main stream media? Just one example, meta-communicating those that believe in the single candidate with integrity are just fools?
Another key emotive phrase with which, I've come to learn, is indicative of
something needing further research is 'anti-Semite'. (ie. as with David Cole whose sick mother was threatened when he dared to research the Holocaust and found very information very unpopular with those that control our media.)
In psychology we learn that most people are of good heart and the rare manifestation are those we call sociopaths; those without heart, or are just 'doing their job'.
Thank G-d they are indeed rare, but do we not need to learn to identity them and their indirect tactics, so as to know when we've likely just heard the truth? Do we have time enough to do otherwise?
Is this a war? Of course it is,
it's a war against truth, where, just like in battle, the best defense is a good offense, and is best done with help, except
instead of wounded soldiers we have wounded truths.
Bottom line, of course there's a war going on,
a war of mind share, against truth seekers of limited time.

As far as "war"...hmmmm... I don't think so. (my opinion)
