By "tacit" I mean approval without disapproving.
As to the second article, I suspect the Christian Science Monitor is drumming up a show-down scenario. No doubt there will be words said on behalf of the regime's opponents, but street battles just seem inappropriate for this venue. There likely will be thousands of riot police around the university. The regime probably doesn't want any trouble; it has enough of black eye from its heavyhandedness in putting down previous demonstrations.
