“All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe that we are away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near. Hold out baits to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and crush him.� THE ART OF WAR by Sun Tzu

FOREWORD: Off To A Good Start
I remember a time when I looked out to sea and relaxed in total comfort. A little more than six years ago, I was in Lucea, Hanover on a Community Health rotation working at the Noel Holmes Hospital. It was one of the first courses in my final year of medical school at the University of the West Indies, Mona Campus, Jamaica. I recall the exact feeling I had as my classmate took the picture shown above. We had taken time during the two week period to visit various places around Hanover and the neighbouring parishes of St. James and Westmoreland. We'd visited the Hanover Museum and I'd spent afternoons sometimes in the library down the road from the hospital. We had taken the time to help out with a 7

presentation to hairdressers and barbers getting certified for work. I'd snapped some pictures of the nearby Parish Church being renovated. I alternated evenings to rest, study and exercise on a nearby beach to where I slept. Apart from the daily activities assigned at the hospital and visiting nearby health centres and the infirmary, we'd even received a bit of a treat at one of the all-inclusive resorts. However what stays most with me is the visit to the old relic called Fort Charlotte. The main part of Jamaica's history is dominated by our previous colonial rulers, the Spanish and then the British. The British eventually gained power over the island in a war to control a territory that the explorer Christopher Columbus had established for the Spanish. I recall as I sat there on one of those old cannons on the top of the Fort that I thought to myself, how lucky we were as a nation. We had achieved independence and control over our own political affairs. We had done that in a civilized fashion. We never had to resort to war and bloodshed as the colonial powers had done. I also recall thinking about all the things in my life that had brought me up to this point. I thought of the daily rigours of my then studies and how in a year's time I would be moving on to another stage of my career. From I was a young boy; I had always envisioned effectively using my talent for the sciences. I had done well enough throughout high school to filter my way into medical school. I had goals then of utilizing my training in helping out my community. I'd also hoped later to possibly find time to continue some other life objectives like becoming a published author and eventually starting a business. I was set then on also finishing my studies before starting a family. This would ensure my children never suffered from my lack of attention or lacked anything financially. 8

So, as I sat there, I felt pretty good. The setting made my mood calm and peaceful. The breeze tugged at my clothing. I smelt the spray of the sea water splashing on the rocks below. From my vantage point, I could see the stretch of Jamaica's northwestern coastline towards Negril Point to my left. The breaking of the surf on the fort's foundations was the only sound that broke the silence of that rare beautiful moment of contemplation. A tropical storm hit the island in that last week of our trip and we braved the way back to campus through flooded areas. Once back in town, I continued in my studies and looked to try and fulfill what I considered at that time to be my main destiny. However, with all things in life, tragedy struck when I least expected it. The following months became the worst in my life. The subsequent years would create a personal storm that makes me look back at that once rare moment and wonder just where it all went wrong.

OFFENSIVE ATTACK 1: CATCH OFF GUARD
“Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected.� THE ART OF WAR by Sun Tzu Bodies of U.S. officers and soldiers slain by the Nazis after capture near Malmedy, Belgium (Courtesy of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Library Digital Archives)
It is a curious feeling to know you are near the brink of success but just cannot attain it due to some obstacle or roadblock. It is an even more curious feeling to have knowledge of that hindrance but have no clue how to remove it. While doing one of the harder rotations in my last year, I caught a bad case of the flu. Before that, my stomach became troubled with a severe case of dyspepsia. I hadn't been taking good care of myself. I hadn't been eating properly and with the rough schedule I endured, had neglected to ensure my body received the adequate amount of nutrients it needed. The result was reflux oesophagitis; stomach aches, vomiting and a depleted appetite. The next month after that, I would be hit with a double whammy of other medical diagnoses. As I struggled through it all, I felt a terrible foreboding of doom. I'd never felt less healthy in my life. In this low period, I developed problems with anxiety and later depressive symptoms. I sought some help with counselling but 11
HOW TO KILL A MAN

just wasn't able to cope with the normal rigours of my daily activities. Absenteeism in school set in. In that 2-3 month period I'm very sure I saw more doctors and did more medical tests than I'd done in my prior 22 year stretch of life. I should have been wary and realized that I required an official break from school. I never really took it. However I'd told my supervisors about some of my health problems. When I gradually got better and returned to school, I tried my best to get back into the groove of my work habits. It never happened because I realized over the time of my many absences silly things had been done. Unfortunately for years after, even worse things would befall me. Similar to the soldiers faced by the East German army in World War II, I'd come upon a behemoth of intense warped ideology. There is nothing worse than facing an enemy blindly following a man who believed that the world was his for the taking. Hitler had Germany under a dangerous spell. He'd mystified them into a belief that the white supremacy they were fighting for was their right. Domination and control of lesser mortals was the future of the world. Nazis would rule the entire earth at whatever cost. Torture, intimidation and death were their way to the world of their dreams. Diplomacy was out. War was in. Love was gone. Seasons of hate had started. Wisdom had retired to back stage. Ignorance had taken complete centre stage bathed in an eerie contrasting false glow of light. And the worst thing is: Hitler's followers didn't even realize it! Curious-er…and curious-er. Luckily I haven't yet been assassinated and left to die in the cold dreary snow; but I had been ambushed.

OFFENSIVE ATTACK 2: CREATE A DIVERSION
“If we wish to fight the enemy can be forced to an engagement even though he be sheltered behind a high rampart and a deep ditch. All we need to do is attack some other place which he will be obliged to relieve.” THE ART OF WAR by Sun Tzu The first bit of tom-foolery began with "friends" thinking it was right to search through my property. Then later twisting around things I'd said or written and turning my thoughts into some pre-conceived notion of whatever they thought may have been wrong with me. Next, too many people became involved in attempting to "aid" me in improving my health. Most of these persons had no clue what was wrong with me and just ran with the flow. Another diversion occurred in people thinking that they needed to know where I was going everyday. I'm sorry. But if I'm going somewhere and I see someone following me, I'm not going to proceed to my destination. Then there was the coup-de-grâce. Over those initial months, many things were said about me in a demeaning manner. Somehow my medical problems had become the public's knowledge. However, they had no clue what my real issue was. So, ultimately supposition took way to speculation and more and more lies developed. That was followed by subsequent obfuscation over many years. Imagine over years having to endure idle chatter and gossip with no idea as to how it all began. The truth was that I should have tried to concentrate on my studies and leave people to run their mouths. 13

However, in the heat of any situation people will get emotional and angry. I'm not perfect. I'm just a man and so on hearing these things I tried to consolidate and even in some cases resolve the issue. The major problem occurred with my realization that there was so much myth and hype that I would never be able to sift through the rubble and find myself. It seemed the real me had become lost. Just sitting here and thinking about it as I write is astonishing in itself. If I was to begin recounting the many falsehoods said, I'd start another book. That volume would capture a cornucopia of things devoid of logic; from being a homosexual to being a terrorist. Those two hurt the most because they go against everything that I'd grown up and learnt and even now believe in. However, the sad fact is that those things were just the tip of the iceberg. One weird "news" is that I'm rich. However, if you're a criminal looking to kidnap someone and use them to gain ransom money, please don't kidnap me. You'll just embarrass yourself. I've been in and out of school so regularly that I'm heavily in debt. And anyone who knows me or has followed me on Facebook knows the two main jobs I've had in the last few years. I've even stated what I get paid in notes about them. It wouldn't be hard to calculate how much I've earned.

I'm just extremely puzzled as to how such rabid cruel misinformation could even start to foster into any sort of supposed reality.

My humiliation was just beginning though. More evil would follow me. Idleness, tom-foolery and lies would make way for another sort of beast. A legion of others began to join in the fun. Why not stick some more salt in the wound? The only way to continue destroying a man is to defeat him while he's down.

OFFENSIVE ATTACK 3: GATHER ALLIES
“He will win whose army is animated by the same spirit throughout all ranks.� THE ART OF WAR by Sun Tzu Photo Courtesy of US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
The games had begun. There were rounds of complete invasion of privacy, other rounds of more lies and even more rounds of gathering more people involved into my personal life.
It is frightening looking back over those years up to the present. It is saddening as I see people who should have known better taking up arms, professionalism giving way to wide-eyed sadism, and members of my community and family becoming embroiled in duplicity of purpose. As I made my way through my daily activities, I was the one who suffered the most. I spoke of the problems but people either told me to ignore it or didn't believe me. I'd become a weird form of celebrity; a spectacle, someone to be gawked at, a side-show, a clown, someone to be hated.

Being a poppy-show for the masses wasn't an easy job. If you've followed me on Facebook, you know about people hissing their teeth at me, waving me off with disgust and treating me as if I were an invalid. However, that is also just the tip of the iceberg. Imagine people you don't know laughing loudly at you, daily making cheeky and insulting comments, cursing you, calling you names and some even spitting at your feet as you pass them, as if you were the scum of the Earth.
This sort of response from people was of course befuddling. In the state I was in, that only served to make my problems worse. My own personal demons took flight and soared into devolution of myself. I had become my own worse enemy. I had begun on a slow path of retarded growth and self-destruction.

OFFENSIVE ATTACK 4: LET THE ENEMY FIGHT ITSELF
“To fight and conquer in all your battles is not supreme excellence; supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting.� THE ART OF WAR by Sun Tzu The new attack had started and I was the prime instigator. My depressive symptoms had mostly gone but I still had a prevailing deep sense of fear. My anxiety was such that some mornings I never even wanted to face the day. I remember some mornings shaking convulsively from head to foot. My nerves had taken control of me. I would not meet the day. I was sure some other insult would occur as I went about my business. I remember vomiting up my breakfast some mornings. I remember feeling there was no hope for me. I remember not having a clue as to how to make my way forward. Confusion and chaos settled into my mind. I was done for. There was only one more stage to go before my expiration. You see, you don't only kill a man by murdering him outright. Once he loses hope in life, he's finished. Once his reputation is tarnished, he's dead as nit. Once his chances at succeeding at some dream peters out, his light is extinguished. Once his finances come to a point where it's difficult sustaining himself or acquiring a job, he's near death. Nothing much can replace unfulfilled hopes and dreams. The future looked completely dim. However the final blow hadn't occurred because I'd grown older and wiser. 18

Somehow, I found some quiet bits of time and realized my life was not up. The only way back for me was to balance the scales. I sat and thought about reversing the things that had been done to me. I was not a failure. I prayed the longest and hardest prayer I ever had in my lifetime and received the answer to my problems. I quietly set about creating my defense. I knew I would have to take up position. I knew the scales would become tipped, once I countered everything that had been done to me.

DEFENSIVE POSITION 1: CATCH THEM OFF GUARD
1 Kings, Chapter 5:3 �Thou knowest how that David my father could not build a house for the name of Jehovah his God for the wars which were about him on every side, until Jehovah put them under the soles of his feet.�
Before they could finish me off, I killed myself. I was a new person, changed from the inside out. I still went about my day filled with trepidation but I had the knowledge in the back of mind that what I was doing had purpose. I knew I'd eventually get better at controlling myself. My destiny lay in keeping myself grounded in what I knew all along; I could be confident to know I had nothing to fear with God on my side. By this time, I was back at school. I'd realized that the unnecessary attention still surrounded me. I knew that my privacy and the lives of those close to me had become some sort of sick voyeuristic pleasure for people who should have known better. I spoke to no one about it. I'd spoken about it before and wasn't believed. Why would they listen to me now? The time for discussions was over. I went about my business. However, I never went to much of my classes. I imagine people probably thought I had gotten depressed again, but I wasn't. I knew exactly what I was doing. I watched and waited. I'm only sorry that I never explained more. I only told people to be careful and that I was "on a dangerous mission."

Sure enough, the architects of my initial demise showed themselves. One by one. I watched them as they either passed me or began to redo some things which they'd originally done. I wasn't surprised. You can't teach old dogs new tricks. I watched them watching me as I continued to collect information. The more information I collected, the sicker I felt inside. I could not. I just could not believe the things that some people had done. However, it would reach a boiling point. They were caught off guard but many still remained arrogant. As it looked like people would gnash and chomp at the bits, I left for another leave of absence. I gave them some time to cool off and learn some common sense. But they hadn't learnt. So, I geared up for stage two. I'd been prepared for it. I remained steadfast and continued my plan.

DEFENSIVE POSITION 2: CREATE A MASSIVE DIVERSION
Ecclesiastes, Chapter 9:18 “Wisdom is better than weapons of war; but one sinner destroyeth much good.� During one of the breaks I had from school, I'd delved into internet marketing. I even had acquired a qualification for web designing from Infoserv Institute of Technology. The plan then was to use my skills and gain an alternative stream of income. However, with the voyeurs still around, I knew I couldn't start any serious business. I was not going to sacrifice the privacy of any clients or future customers because of the idiocy of others. I learnt daily though and did some blogging. Anything new in the internet landscape, I knew about it. I learnt from guys like Rich Shefren, Mike Filsaime, Michael Cheney, Michael Rasmussen, Jeff Walker, Andy Jenkins, Frank Kern and many others. Those names will be strange to those not in the internet marketing world, but they are huge million-dollar profit earners online. I devoured anything they developed and learnt their tactics to gain customers and listeners. So when I started to begin stage two, I KNEW I could not fail. Not only did I know the operations of the internet inside out, I knew about viral marketing. I knew about promotion. I knew about copywriting. Also I knew I had a ready audience for what I was about to offer. So I gave it to them. I started by approaching sideways. I gathered a few online friends on Facebook. Then, I started to set up some more positive status updates on my wall. Then I waited and watched. Many persons devoured it hook, line and sinker.

I then changed gears and utilized my profile to speak regularly at least three times for the week. One was something entitled "Som'un Good Happening in Jamaica," another was called "Unnecessary Set of Facts," and then most Sundays I wrote a lengthy topical article of discussion in my notes section. Then I waited and watched. Sure enough, the things I said were discussed and repeated but I wasn't finished yet. I'd left my profile open. Anyone, anywhere in the world could read the things I wrote. Plus as soon as I wrote something, I filtered it out to numerous people online. Since people had begun to trust and listen to me, I knew the time was ripe for my best foray yet. I shut-down my usual postings for awhile and then began part two of this second stage. I would reveal some of the things which people had done. I started off with a short note about fighting evil entitled "THE EPIC BATTLE." Later I followed it up in a few months with another more personal note entitled "ROUND ONE." This one I heard was read by people as far from Jamaica as Australia. LOOK AT MY PROFILE HERE FOR THOSE NOTES: http://www.facebook.com/joneil.alcock They were now playing my game. The difference of course was that I WASN'T playing a game. I was talking about life and living it. I was showing people the things they should REALLY be concerned about.

Why should people be concentrated on making some weird spectacle out of me? There were so many more important issues going on right here on our island that needed solutions. Actually, the entire world needed attention on many issues of importance.
If you sit and continue doing the same things which do NOT work, over and over again, the world will never progress. I knew this. I've imparted that lesson and hopefully many others will realize this truth.
However even then, many still hadn't learnt. So, I went into defensive position three. This is where the story really gets interesting.

DEFENSIVE POSITION 3: GATHER A WORLD OF ALLIES
2 Chronicles, Chapter 8:9 “But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no servants for his work; but they were men of war, and chief of his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.� It is only in the weeks before writing this e-book that I realize the impact that my counterstrike has had. Secrets will never remain so for long, once people don't move on with life. You can trick some people some times, but you can never trick all the people all of the times.
It's sad that this stage had to begin because I knew it would go all wrong for the opposition at this point.
Even before this stage, many people throughout the world had an idea of the troubles I was in. I doubt they really knew the intensity of grave danger my life held daily because of what I'll refer to now as "damn foolishness." However, they do now. And that was long before I set fingers to keyboard and began typing this story. There is no way on Earth you can hope to achieve trickery and continue lies once many people know the truth. What many others don't even realize was this. By their own actions they were facilitating my alliances. If everything I do becomes knowledge to others; then it moves to another person, then the next, then the next. Until you create an awareness in millions (possibly billions) of people. 26

You can't stop that. It becomes a virus; a deadly multiplication that makes me the initial host. I knew that. As I said before, I knew exactly what I was doing. I, of course, never planned everything I'd do in advance. Neither did I figure out beforehand the large number of people who would know about my activities. I'd be lying if I said that. But I'm thankful for it for two reasons. People now know the truth and I was able to impart some important lessons which I know might save lives. I could have easily lost mine. I could possibly still do so. There is something here which we must never forget. This world is made up of people. Choose to lose your humanity and compassion and you run a dangerous risk of upsetting the balance of life. I seem to have never forgotten that and even in my writings it is prominently displayed. While messing around with the word cloud application Wordle, I realized an article I wrote about my job at the Portmore Sun had utilized three prominent main words. Can you guess what one of those words was?
That's right, it was PEOPLE.

By the time I'd embarked upon stage two, I knew I was unto something. So I harassed the enemy even more by proclaiming to others how I'd planned what I was doing.
I had really only spoken to four people directly about my deliberate actions. But I made the enemy know what they were up against.
They could never win me. I was in it for the long haul. I had things to do and clearly they needed to get a life.

Since I believe that Jesus is my saviour, I knew my life wasn't mine. It had been bought at a price and with blood. Nevertheless, my life is not for others to create a mystery out of. I leave the paths I cross and the steps I take to the Almighty One. He knows where I'm going. No one else really needs to try and govern me. However, I knew I had to hold in some things I said and did. Or else someone might meet an untimely end. In this life story here, I've written many things metaphorically. But I also believe that there is a true spiritual realm with continued warfare occurring until Jesus returns to Earth to rule. I had become an instrument and I took that with no simple nonchalance. I'm not saying here that I'm a prophet or some great sage. I simply follow the Word and try to live my life likewise. Favour finds your way when your heart and faith is in the tasks you set out for yourself. The enemy began to fight themselves. The puppeteers became my puppets. I watched as they continued to do what they always did; speak amongst themselves. I watched as they unknowingly created an atmosphere that allowed me to say the bad things that they were doing and reveal it to the world. I watched as many opened their eyes and the names of my aggressors became common knowledge. Young and old know their names. I don't have to call them. They also know themselves and I'm not in the finger pointing trade. Additionally, I've already forgiven them. Sometimes, I wonder how they feel inside. I recall sleepless nights plus days of agony and ridicule. I recall my insomnia changing my facial structure to possess huge bags under the eyes. I remember feeling so weak that my body felt like it had left me. I remember losing weight and then regaining it in double measure. 29

I can never forget the tears and worry of my family and friends. It was all for something blown way out of proportion. I will have to live with that for the rest of my life. However, I know the problems and issues can easily resurface and so I won't forget what they forgot. I won't forget the fifth and final stage of "How To Kill A Man" and I'll do it with a lot more guile than how they attempted to end my life.

AFTERWORD Thanks so much for taking the time to read this story. As you can imagine my life has dealt me a tremendous amount of savage blows. I have remained rock solid in my Christian faith however and have an incredible amount of support from loving family members. Without those key ingredients I would never have been able to produce this e-book.
