CHAPTER

The Passive Aggressive Strategy

Morral plays a crucial part in any war, and it is always wise to work to undermine the morale of the enemy troops. You can attempt this from the outside through propaganda, but that often has the opposite effect. It is much more effective to find sympathizers within their ranks who will spread discontent among them like a disease. To follow the passive aggressive strategy, you must seem to go along with people offering no resistance, but actually you dominate the situation. Some people may sense what you are up to and get angry. Don't worry. Just make sure you have disguised your aggression enough that you can deny it exists. Do it right, and they will feel guilty for accusing you.
