That was true of the Stasi in '89, true of Slobo's 'special units' last week, probably true of every revolution ... but there comes a moment when the general perception is that the tide has turned ... things go along looking quite normal, power consolidated, no hope of change, then something happens, an event triggers that hope, then key people make their move - boston.com

In 1905 the cossacks fired freely on the crowds, in 1917 they refused, and that made the difference, no more tsar.
