A well-known method of subjugation utilised by conquerors and rulers alike is, “divide and conquer”; this strategy applies equally in times of war and peace. It may surprise many but this method remains the principal means of social control in today’s western societies.

little time to look at the issue. I urge the Tanaiste to cause the Minister for Justice , Equality
and Law reform to make it available as soon as possible. read full story / add a comment
