Violence is clearly justified. There's only a question of it being the most effective means.
I'm currently reading "Why Civil Resistance Works", which strongly suggests that non-violent means of protest are far, far more effective.
Oh yeah all the peace marches ended slavery. All the peaceful sit-ins that took down the Nazis. I remember all of those... never happening.
Kill your masters and oppressors. Full stop.
Yes, someone who worked at the state department wouldn't have any motive to push for "civil" protest.
The opposition to the south african apartheid did a campaign of sabotage because it wanted to reduce casualties. I would say it was very effective.
