CAPITOL BOMBING At a 1969 “War Council” in Flint, Michigan, Weatherman leader Bernardine Dohrn (currently a law professor at Northwestern University and a Board member of the ACLU) praised the serial murderer Charles Manson and his accomplices She then proclaimed that the time had come to launch a war against “Amerikkka” (Weatherman always spelled “America” this way, to convey the group’s belief that the nation was ineradicably racist to its core). Toward this end, Dohrn advocated the formation of an even more radical “Weather Underground” cult to carry out covert terrorist activities rather than public acts of protest. By early 1970, her wish would be realized. https://www.discoverthenetworks.org/organizations/weatherman/?fbclid=IwAR3SI2OrtIQZBMkIPWsh4dTty7XTOXmaNu_ySO2C7aLOGvH7FDkZmdCbu6k
