RECENT ACTIVITIES AND POLITICAL MOTIVATIONS OF CONTEMPORARY LEFT-WING AND RIGHT-WING TERRORIST GROUPS IN THE UNITED STATES ARE DISCUSSED.
Abstract
AMONG THE GROUPS MENTIONED ARE THE WEATHER UNDERGROUND, THE SYMBIONESE LIBERATION ARMY, THE JEWISH DEFENSE LEAGUE, AND THE KU KLUX KLAN. MANY OF THE GROUPS, IT IS REVEALED, ARE OPPOSED TO SENSELESS KILLING, AND ARE QUICK TO CRITICIZE THE KILLING OF INNOCENTS. THE AUTHOR ALSO NOTES THAT SINCE 1973, ONLY EIGHT PERCENT OF ALL BOMBINGS WERE ATTRIBUTED TO EXTREMISTS AND ANTI-ESTABLISHMENTARIANS.
