what a pack of lies. They were "terrorists" but the US government murdering hundreds of thousands of innocent people is fine? And you call honest teaching "indoctrination"? No, that would be the vile lies like the phony claim the WU supported Manson absolutely UNTRUE.
They were terrorists and Comunists... They indoctrinated our kids in college and now they're advising the president how to remove power from the people and put it in control of the executive branch.
more rightwing BUL*SH*T...it is amazing at how many people can put such trash up and call it factual!! Jesus...I hope there are people using this site and seeing thru the lies!!!! check out "A People's History of the United States" by Howard Zinn. Get YOURSELF educated : )
They didn't hurt anyone with their bombs. They were symbolic messages to "the powers that be", against the Vietnam war. And a lot of those folks were pretty cool, I don't remember anyone of them labeling themselves as "communists". That is a load of bull. Everyone should watch "The Weather Underground".
@MCrushala What universe do you live in??? Bill Ayers says he's a communist with a 'small c'...whatever the fuck that means. Their bomb teaching, bomb making and bombs exploding did indeed kill people. Geeez at least do some reading before you go yaking about a subject like the W.U. Like when Charlie Manson and his hippie chicks were arrested for slaughtering a 9 month pregnant Sharon Tate and others in L.A., and the W.U. cheered them on, claiming everyone under 30 should do the same!

Don't forget, George Washington was a terrorist in the eyes of the british crown.
He would be saluting these Americans, for fighting injustice, mothered by apathy, and going it alone if necessary.
Add: They didn't attach any god dogma either, which is refreshing. Personally, I'd much rather society be respectful to one another, simply in the name of common decency.
@sickboytodd "George Washington was a terrorist in the eyes of the british crown."
The Founding Fathers were terrorists! Aren't we clever. Perfect example of the tactical relativism you dipshit Lefties always resort to. With your, uh, logic, I could just as easily say that since the Indians - sorry if I outraged your PC-whipped sensibilities there - the 'Native Americans' joined the Brits against the colonists *they* were terrorists and fit to be targeted as such.
This is an odd video considering the amount of violence from the right this past year. Those talking about revolt and overthrowing the govt are rightwingers.
Also, Palin's husband was a member of the Alaskan secessionist movement for years. Palin attended many meetings and even spoke at one of them. This secessionist movement was inspired a guy who used violent rhetoric about the US govt and died in a plastic explosives deal gone wrong.
heroes of what ? why ? what did they do ? declare war ?? ! that's heroic ? that's STUPID, that is exactly what a dog does if you hit him ---- he bites back. Communism , in theory, was a good system, in Practice it was bullshit.
But they were supposed to come with arguments, with ideas, with REASONS, not just bomb places...that's endangering Other Lives, other people that are Innocent, that have nothing to do with this. heroes ? NO, I would say C-O-W-A-R-D-S

WOW! I'm pissed to find out that those absolutely terrorist, bombing, openly proclaimed, scumbag enemies of the US are not only free & employed. But are in places of great influence
I happen to know of someone whom within the confines of his own supposed to be private home, merely exercised his free speech rights in expressing his negative views of the treasonous, US secrets selling, Bill Clinton. However, if certain criminal officials had not been criminally intruding into his life, they would
I don't know if you read much, or if kind of keep up with current events, but bad new pal, communism lost.
What happened to the old comuunist block? gone. most former commie states are making the capitalist market a bigger part of their economies (china, vietnam etc). The only pure commie countries remaining, cuba and N. korea are in horrible shape - no wonder THE PEOPLE have rejected this horrible form of government
Good you're against Marxism but you should know the truth...its alive & well. The people in control of this country are the ones who promote & implement Marxism. Its a economic system that's inherently & inseparably paired with an authoritarian form of governing. In case you haven't noticed, our Constitution has been greatly eroded & it's sole purpose is to disallow authoritarianism
It's not that the people behind this are truly Marxists. Its just that also authoritarian is their Loserferianism

This piece of propaganda forgot to mention Weathermen Underground member, Brian Flanagan. He was welcomed onto the game show "Jeopardy" with open arms, and walked away with $23,000.
In regards to the dolt who commented on this thread 8 months ago, saying, "the only difference between Al Qaeda and Bill Ayers is competence", the differences between these two men far outweigh the similarities.
Lastly, this clip should note they are free because the FBI broke numerous laws in pursuit of them.
Considering the violent & illegal covert ops of the FBI and CIA, it isn't strange that some violently opposed the US govt. The govt was overthrowing govts around the world and framing its own citizens using COINTELPRO.
The Weather Underground were careful never to harm any people in their bombings which can't be said of anti-aboriton protesters. The Weather Underground was never supported by Democrat politicians, but the secessionists have been supported by Republican politicans.
ive actually been reading up on the weathermen undergrouind and this video is propaganda. it omits so much information. this was during the civil right movement in which the gov't itself was a threat to the people. they werent trying to bring down the us gov't in the sense of replacing it with communism, they were bombimg EMPTY buildings in protest. now i dont a gree with the practice, but i do agree with the ideals behind it. so what if theyre college professors now? i applaud them for it
Now these disciples of Gramsci and the vile Saul Alinsky are working to bring down "the System" from within. Obama is their friend, so you'd better buy guns and ammo.
Modularsky, did you see the same video as me? What equivocation? What qualifications would be needed? These people were on the stated mission of bringing down the U.S. government and used bombings to do so.
Modularsky (with a Russian sounding screen name...hmmm...) you can split hairs all you want to, but the record speaks for itself. Not only did they declare war against the US (High Treason), conspire to overthrow the country (punishable under RICO at least), successfully plant explosives (Murder), they are now college professors teaching god-knows-what to impressionable 18-24 year olds. One of these lunatics for peace won't even repent for his past sins. Who is selling WHAT to the masses?
@gmanisstillhere "(The Weathermen) conspire(d) to overthrow the country ... "
Hell that's nothing. The CIA and the US military have overthrown about 50 governments since WW2 alone. And it was more than conspiracy, it was standard procedure. Iran, Guatemala, Indonesia, Chile, Nicaragua ... the list is nearly endless. Add to that the American government's support for dictators & fascists, the fixing & influencing of elections, and the Weathermen seem like small potatoes.
Some fair points in here, but the equivocation of these people with Al-Qaeda by calling them 'terrorists' without qualification shows how one-sided and arrogant this portrayal is. Instead of exposing the truth, the MPI is doing exactly like any number of other organizations are doing: fashioning their own version of the truth and flogging it to the masses.
