Schemes for vengeance that promise safety for the avenger won't cut it, for those are the coward's way and can be countered by upping the promise to hurt the coward, which knocks out the will to act beyond bravado.
It's true that most of the world's leaders, and petty aspirants to power, exhort their lap pupplies for painless vengeance: only targets are exterminated, never the exterminator. Lot of young warriors have pointlessly died for believing the promises of leaders, along with far more targets the warriors obediently wasted. What's needed are leaders willing to die themselves in the act of vengeance. If that became the norm of credible leadership then the desire to lead would soon kill itself off. Which would be a step in the right direction. Leaders of all stripes need killing, and best is for them to do themselves. A courageous leader offs him/herself to show how to do it. Erect monuments to the assholes for pigeons to shit on, but don't ever believe or do what they say needs doing until they demonstrate the close-up effect of stand-off yarping for violence. Once you see what a weapon can do to a fearless leader you will think about going home to sealbark for Ozzy. Or, if you pine for viagara eat your weapon.
