#3  When a government starts murdering its citizens over thought crimes, the citizenry has no choice but to respond by killing the government.

The way to do this today is by using the "assassination pool" idea to take out those select members of the government responsible for the abuses.

Simply put, the pool is hosted internationally, with anonymous bets made on the day the target might die. The bet closest to the date of actual death is the winner. Improbable bets are used to raise the total pool going to the eventual winner.

Therefore, those who wish to put out a contract bet a bunch of money on dates up front, on that individual, kicking the pool up to tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars. The assassin places the minimum bet on the day he intends to kill the target. As the winner of the pool, he is then paid anonymously.

Thus nobody ever meets or can identify the assassin. There is no need to even use a real bank to hold the money. The pool website is high security, but otherwise looks like an ordinary business site. It is reliant on word of mouth for its customers and credibility.
