The belief that strangers are always hostile

[Sena]

"The enemy is obvious. His intentions are evil. Wars are basically
examples of mass suicide — embarked upon, however, with all of the
battle's paraphernalia, carried out through mass suggestion, and through
the nation's greatest resources, by men who are convinced that the
universe is unsafe, that the self cannot be trusted, and that strangers are
always hostile. You take it for granted that the species is aggressively combative. You must out-think the enemy nation before you
yourself are destroyed. These paranoiac tendencies are largely hidden
beneath man's nationalistic banners.

"The end justifies the means." This is another belief, most damaging."

(The INDIVIDUAL and the NATURE of MASS EVENTS, Session 835, February 7, 1979)
