Can you see a pattern emerging in the divide and conquer strategy?

Or another far more nefarious strategy to deliberately cause harm and chaos, first play god (decide who gets to be victimized) then play hero, save the day by coming up with the solutions to the problems the autocrat (and the autocrat wannabe) created in the first place (except the latter never gets around to solving anything, he justs move on to creating the next chaos and then talks about how he’s the only one to solve it)?

One example of how to divide is simply to accuse without proof and blame.  

For example, the autocrat divides by laying blame at the feet of the “imperial” West. 

African countries actually think that this most imperialistic autocrat is actually fighting the bygone imperialism of the West.  

The result is the shameful pillage and plunder of African resources by this most imperialistic autocrat.  

Some Islamic countries and also the Russian people believe that same spiel and propaganda spun by this imperialistic autocrat.

If this autocrat (and autocrat wannabe), was a true hero then he would spend his time giving back in deeds, not taking in harm and stealing in treasures.  

Can you see the patterns?
