Coup d'Etat 2000
Excerpts from Coup d'Etat: A Practical Handbook by Edward Luttwak (Harvard Univ. Press, 1968):

"If a coup does not make use of the masses, or of warfare, what instrument of power will enable it to seize control of the state? The short answer is that the power will come from the state itself...

"A coup consists of the infiltration of a small but critical segment of the state apparatus, which is then used to displace the government from its control of the remainder. ...

"If we were revolutionaries, wanting to destroy the power of some of the political forces, and the long and often bloody process of revolutionary attrition can achieve this.
