Revolution: Army, Secret Police and Thugs

It has become clear, especially after reading this account of reporter treatment, that the secret police are in charge. This leads to some issues that are going to have to be resolved.

  • As long as the secret police are in charge and suppressing media the regime may never fall.
  • As long as the secret police believe they are doing the right thing they will continue to do so.
  • It is fundamentally important that the secret police understand their true role in society as compared to that of the peace protesters
Yes, I know, this may be naive. However, honestly, can anyone tell me that the secret police don't believe in the lies their regime is spreading? They seem to take a lot of pleasure in their work. Too bad their work is to terrorize patriotic citizens attempting to stand up for rights. The secret police are in fact terrorists.

Has anybody told them this? How do they justify such actions? More importantly, how can this self-justification of deplorable actions be weakened by exposure to truth. Should all arrested citizens have statements or slogans to throw mental rocks at their tormentors as they suffer beatings and torture? It's sad to imagine that they would receive a lot of exposure to truth via this method.

I don't know. If someone has ideas how to reach the secret police goons, and the army that is overly willing to hand people to them, please let me know. This is a problem that needs to be resolved in all repressive and oppressive regimes.
