The human race is finding that the repeating of history is not working with regards to killing our own species. Although only one-percent of all the humans who have live on the planet in recent recorded history of 2000 years have been killed in a war; we still see the tit for tat, reciprocal responses which seem to transcend the generations. The best way to achieve political will if in fact you are willing to wait, is to make them weak thru gifts or making their lives too easy, thus taking away their need to fight for their rights. Once this is achieved they enter a realm of mediocrity and lose all motivations to fight, innovate, press on or wage war against you. Once you have a populous at that point you can slowly turn up the heat and all the little froggies will remain in the pot without jumping out until it boils over. Sure they will bitch and moan about it as the heat gets too hot, but not a one will rebel or fight you for your agenda.

How do we know this is fact? Well we see it in the United States and the middle class who duly allows mediocrity to overcome them. We see this in nations we have rebuilt after wars, they become weak, enjoy their lives and demand the status quo not willing to fight the gradual changes. Those nations who wish to serve their will must take a long term approach and empathetically empathize their enemy and then slowly over generations turn up the steam and modify their thought processes convincing them that they are happy, free, lucky, better, smarter, stronger, enlightened. Once they have reached the purported created reality and perceive that they have arrived, they will no longer look towards fighting and you can then have your will with them. Once a nation or a culture reaches a point of instantaneous self gratification for every humanly innate urge, they have arrived at a point that they are not willing to sacrifice that which they have for that which is right.

It is for this reason that Carl von Clauswitz needs to rethink his strategy of reciprocal response to include additional long-term approaches on war and consider the benefits of Sun Tzu to this regard of empathizing your enemy to serve your will? Think on that humans.
