By a group of women in 1983, but born out of 1970s radicalism and the radical university scene. Anyone recall this? I don’t, but seems like I should. The same group also bombed the FBI and an Israeli industrial facility. Pretty violent.

Do the leftist women of today share anything in common with this M19 group of the 80s? I’d have to think the sheer numbers of women on a similar soapbox about capitalism, Israel, etc. far exceed the numbers in the early 80s that were concerned about such things. However, I would not expect the leftist women of today to form violent fringe groups like this, but maybe I am wrong…

Bill Clinton commuted their sentences in 2001.
