Alan: Lest we forget...
The Soviet Union, the most egregious "axis of evil" in my own lifetime (Stalin alone was responsible for the death of 60 million people - as many as died in World War II) collapsed without a shot being fired.

Sooner or later -- and usually sooner -- evil empires implode under the insupportable burden of their own dead weight.
How Many People Did Stalin Kill?
How Many People Died In World War II?
It is demonstrably UNtrue that citizens need guns to overthrow oppressive governments.
In the very nature of things, there comes a tipping point at which a critical mass of citizens gets so fed up with the excesses of tyranny that civil disobedience becomes "universal."
And part of that disobedience is that the enforcers of tyranny -- soldiers and police themselves -- no longer carry out orders by corrupt "authorities" who have driven the people to a state of Total Non-Cooperation.
Even the goons of tyranny refuse to cooperate.
Even the goons of tyranny refuse to cooperate.
No matter how implausible "the inevitable implosion of tyranny" may seem, we must account for the fact The Soviet Union imploded -- without a shot being fired -- despite Soviet communism's pretension to "take over the world."
In the end, the Soviet Union had a life span of of 69 years (1922-1991).
Addendum: Many quintessentially political evils have been engendered by humankind's irrepressible rush to war. No one, for example, can give explain the onset of World War I. And World War II was chiefly motivated by the oppressive Treaty of Versailles which, supposedly, put an end to World War I. And the establishment of Zionist Israel at the end of World War II may well become the cause of World War III.
