At some point we need to just accept this is an inevitability and plan strategy with that in mind. Avoiding providing anything that could be justification can be useful to but time and build support or preparations, but it’s not a stance that can just work indefinitely, because they will simply keep doing more extreme actions to try to provoke a reaction. Even if it takes public executions by masked agents of the regime to finally trigger the response, if they want to make violence happen, they can.
