Leftists strike at the heart of our government

Leftist Women Bomb The US Capitol

On November 7, 1983, a bomb exploded in the U.S. Capitol. The blast caused roughly a million dollars worth of damage, but no one was killed or injured. An all-women group called May 19th was behind it. -Kathyrn Fink

Amidst the social and political turmoil of the 1970s, a handful of women—among them a onetime Barnard student, a Texas sorority sister, the daughter of a former communist journalist—joined and became leaders of the May 19th Communist Organization.

  Named to honor the shared birthday of civil rights icon Malcolm X and Vietnamese leader Ho Chi Minh, M19 took its belief in “revolutionary anti-imperialism” to violent extremes: It is “the first and only women-created and women-led terrorist group,” says national security expert and historian William Rosenau.

Just before 11 p.m. on November 7, 1983, they called the U.S. Capitol switchboard and warned them to evacuate the building. Ten minutes later, a bomb detonated in the building’s north wing, harming no one but blasting a 15-foot gash in a wall and causing $1 million in damage.

  Over the course of a 20-month span in 1983 and 1984, M19 also bombed an FBI office, the Israel Aircraft Industries building, and the South African consulate in New York, D.C.’s Fort McNair and Navy Yard (which they hit twice.)

A left-wing radical received a 20-year sentence Thursday for bombing the Capitol and conspiring to set off seven other explosions that a prosecutor called acts of terrorism.

  The radical, Laura J. Whitehorn, was sentenced along with a co-defendant, Linda S. Evans, who was ordered to serve five years for her role in the bombing conspiracy after completing a 35-year term she is already serving for illegally buying guns.

  The two women and five other members of a group describing itself as a "Communist politico-military organization" were charged in May with setting off bombs at the Capitol, at three military installations in the Washington area and at four sites in New York City from 1983 to 1985.

  The Capitol bombing, which damaged a conference room near the Senate chamber on Nov. 7, 1983, prompted tightened security procedures on Capitol Hill and at Federal establishments around the country. "The defendants Linda Evans and Laura Whitehorn are terrorists," Margaret Ellen, an Assistant United States Attorney, told the judge over jeers from the defendants' supporters.

Seven members of a revolutionary group protesting U.S. international and domestic policies have been indicted for setting off a time bomb in the U.S. Capitol in 1983 and committing seven other terrorist bombings here and in New York, officials said Wednesday.

  The indictment, announced by U.S. Atty. Jay B. Stephens, charged that the seven suspects--all but one of whom is in prison on other charges--belonged to a self-described secret \"communist politico/military organization\" and resorted to the terrorist acts to protest and influence U.S. domestic and international policies...

  In addition to the Capitol bombing, the indictment charged the seven with conspiring to detonate explosives at three Washington military facilities and a number of sites in New York, including an FBI office on Staten Island, the Israeli Aircraft Industries Building, the South African Consulate and the Patrolmen's Benevolent Assn...

  The defendants allegedly obtained rifles, shotguns, handguns, bulletproof armor and combined time-delay firing mechanisms with explosives to produce bombs, according to the indictment. Funding their operations in part through theft and armed robbery, they extensively used aliases and false identification to evade detection by law enforcement authorities.

A New Sisterhood Of The Bomb And The Gun...

  The group was also the first American terrorist group entirely organized and led by women. Women picked the targets, made the bombs and implanted the devices. It was a new sisterhood of the bomb and the gun.

Seven years after the U.S. Capitol was damaged by a bomb apparently planted to protest the invasion of Grenada, three women pleaded guilty Friday in connection with the blast.

  Laura Whitehorn, 45, Linda Evans, 43, and Marilyn Buck, 42, all of Baltimore, pleaded guilty to two of the five counts brought against them by a federal grand jury in 1988.

  They pleaded guilty to maliciously damaging the U.S. Capitol and to conspiring to bomb the Capitol and seven other buildings in Washington and New York between 1983 and 1985.

  "We believe that selective assassination of very clear targets is on the agenda now."

Susan Rosenberg, who made the FBI’s Most Wanted list by the time she was 29, is among the most prominent far-left revolutionary activists in the U.S.

  Earlier this summer, she sparked controversy after it was discovered that she purportedly sat on the board as vice-chair of Thousand Currents, which has poured more than $10 million into grassroots social change initiatives, including Black Lives Matter as of late...

  Starting in the late 1970s, Rosenberg became involved in the far-left revolutionary terrorist outfit, May 19 Communist Organization ("M19CO"), which the FBI described as "openly advocating for the overthrow of the U.S. government through armed struggle and the use of violence."

  Over the ensuing years, now a free woman and anti-prison advocate, Rosenberg entered academia, teaching at Manhattan's Jay College of Criminal Justice.

The Hard Left Women of Terror Group M19...

  Towards the tail end of their life cycle as a group, they really at least debated amongst themselves quite intensely the assassination of police officers, of prosecutors, of military officers.

  And while it's true that none of their bombings killed anyone, they certainly contemplated it. From the court records, [I learned that] they had these inventories of weapons and dynamite and detonation cord and Uzi machine guns, fully automatic with sawed-off barrels.

On his final day in office, Jan. 20, 2001, President Bill Clinton commuted the sentences of a pair of radical leftists serving time for bombing the U.S. Capitol building, where a 1983 blast shattered the second floor of the Senate wing.

  Linda Evans and Susan Rosenberg each served 16 years of lengthy sentences, with Rosenberg escaping 42 years of a 58-year sentence and Evans cutting short a 40-year sentence by 24 years...

  According to the New York Post in 2001, New York Democratic Rep. Jerry Nadler, who today serves as the House Judiciary Committee chairman, played a “crucial role” in Clinton’s decision to commute Rosenberg’s sentence.

Following a five-year investigation, federal agents arrested six members of the so-called Resistance Conspiracy in May 1988 and charged them with bombings of the Capitol, Ft. McNair, and the Washington Navy Yard.

  In 1990, a federal judge sentenced Marilyn Buck, Laura Whitehorn, and Linda Evans to lengthy prison terms for conspiracy and malicious destruction of government property.

Susan Rosenberg was a terrorist in the early 1980s. Like her Weathermen comrades, she would have killed many people had she been a more competent terrorist...

  Her only regret was that she hadn’t shot it out with the police who arrested her.
