It doesn’t surprise
me that Bill Ayers, former Weatherman and domestic terrorist, is trying to
polish, or should I say distort, his legacy.
It will be a life-long pursuit, doomed to failure. His recent book is Public Enemy: Confessions of an
American Dissident. He got the “public
enemy” right. I don’t plan to read the book. Reportedly, it is more of the same
tripe served up in his previous writings about his escapades in the Weather
Underground Organization (WUO). Born to
a rich family, his failure to be successfully prosecuted for numerous terrorist
acts was certainly aided by family wealth and political influence; as well, I
must admit, missteps by the FBI and Federal prosecutors.
Some will say, this
was a long time ago. For some people
that may very well be true; but, for me, well, I still remember and don’t plan
to forget anytime soon. To my mind,
modern day terrorism has refocused the heinous acts of the WUO, as well as its
many similarities with, for example, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s actions at the Boston
Marathon. After all, there isn’t much
difference between a pipe bomb and a pressure cooker bomb. What’s that you say? ‘Bill and his associates didn’t actually kill
anyone.’ First off, that’s not
true. Secondly, it wasn’t for lack of
trying.
For some of my
personal experiences with and impressions of the WUO, I refer you to the
following previous post. http://trueattrue.blogspot.com/2013/05/dzhokhar-jahar-tsarnaev-bernardine.html
Of course, Ayers and
his ilk continue to harken-back to the Vietnam War, and the alleged ‘criminal’
nature, at least in their minds, of that military operation. There was considerable justification for the military
incursion in Vietnam, but I should save that for another time. Besides, our country called and many of us
went. Whereas, Ayers and his other
little rat buddies scurried around in the dark of night planting bombs without
any thought or care about who might be killed or injured.
When the public talks
about the cowardly acts of some of our modern day terrorists, don’t forget Bill
and his lovely wife Bernardine Dohrn. As
they might say over coffee with friends, ‘been there, done that.’
This is snarky I
know; but Ayers’ photo, with the ear-rings and the haircut, it appears that he
is finally getting in touch with his feminine side. Something the FBI always suspected. What a wus.
For those that were
too young during the Days of Rage and its aftermath, or for those who have
simply forgotten, I’ve attached a FBI document that will give you a feel for
the kind of people Bill Ayers, Bernardine Dohrn et al were (and still are). The FBI Summary Report has been highly
redacted, but you will quickly get the idea.
Just
spend a moment. Think about it. Let’s not forget.
