So one has to be incited to oppose a foreign occupying army...

Well, if that army would be inactive, and in due course would go away
entirely, if it wasn't attacked, a civilian's best interest is not to
attack it. So that civilian needs to be incited to lose his reason and
attack.

ie if the civilian population lies down and accepts its puppet govt
foisted upon it by the occupying army, then that army will leave.

Sound a bit 'Soviet Bloc' doesn't it?

No, it sounds like Lebanon.
