The handcuffed woman glowered as federal investigators swarmed the Cherry Hill, New Jersey, storage unit where her “combat materials” were stashed. But not even a hardened homegrown terrorist like 29-year-old Susan Rosenberg was ready to die this November night in 1984.
“Put out the f–king cigarette,” she growled at an officer who had unwisely lit up.
Rosenberg knew that the unit was stuffed with 740 pounds of leaking explosives. The nitroglycerine oozing from her poorly maintained cache of dynamite — stolen from a Texas construction firm four years earlier — was dangerous and highly unstable.
Rosenberg and an accomplice, Tim Blunk, were hauled off to the local police station as the feds delicately dismantled their arsenal and ferried it in small batches across the Delaware River to a bomb-disposal unit in Philadelphia.
The bust marked the beginning of the end of the May 19th Communist Organization, the nation’s only woman-run terror group, William Rosenau recounts in “Tonight We Bombed the U.S. Capitol” (Atria), out Tuesday.
M19’s two-year bombing campaign in New York City and Washington, DC, aimed to cast a cloud over what President Ronald Reagan’s re-election campaign was promising: a sunny, prosperous “Morning in America.”
Reagan’s election in 1980 told the remnants of America’s radical left that the country had rejected their call to revolution.
But M19’s core of five women and two men pushed back with a series of seven explosions that they intended to be “percussive wake-up calls” for the nation, Rosenau writes — “proof that an underground army was still at work.”

Bill Clinton granted Rosenberg a presidential pardon on his last day in office in 2001, after she had served 16 years. Now 64, she teaches women’s studies at CUNY’s Hunter College in Manhattan.

Leave it to a Clinton to take bribe money and make it worse.
It was an interesting article - I vaguely remember the events - and then I got to the LAST LINE.
Every time I creep a little closer towards feelings of forgiveness, something like this reminds me why THE RAPIST SHOULD ROT IN HELL FOREVER.
Of course she does.
Brick and Mortar Academic Management is nearly totally Marxist.
Bill Clinton, the gift that just keeps giving.
Another communist terrorist (this one rightly convicted) permitted to pollute the young minds full of mush in our system of higher education.
“Inside the female-run communist terror group hell-bent on destruction”
Are they referring to the Swedish ruling party? Or maybe the ruling party of Germany?
Someone should enroll and put an explosive tack on her chair.
Their beauty made my eyes burn.
The View..
Wrong! Pelousy runs the largest communist organization in U.S.history...
Yes, but only if we’re willing to stipulate that Nan’s female.
Look up Angela Davis and her resume...Another Marxist, and accomplice to murder (of a Federal Judge, IIRC)...
All the has not been forgotten has been forgiven I suppose...Now a lauded and respected member of Academe...

Teaches! women studies in our university. Here lies the problem and the fact that the universities in this country are also the enemy along with the media

Our K-12 schools and universities are hard at work pumping out new DemonRat voters every year.
Saul Alinsky said that the issue is never the issue. When pre-K kids are taught that polar bears are about to die and “she and he” aren't male or female, remember that the issue at hand is to produce good little DemonRat commie voters.

Bill Errs is another outstanding example.
