" . . . the use of mass media to provoke random acts of ideologically motivated violence . . . "
Stated in that way, the definition sets a very high standard of proof because it suggests that there must be a deliberate intent to provoke violence. We are now in the realm of mind-reading unless someone would take the unlikely step of putting that intent in writing somewhere.
