A university giving material aid to an organization that promotes the destruction and replacement of our form of government? Surprise?
Becker blames the “woke academics" at the University of Leicester who "threw away the archive of the Institute for the Study of Terrorism (IST) – compiled painstakingly over many years and often at personal risk by me and my fellow researchers – as unwanted trash"
In her latest update she concludes that the archive. "recording thousands of instances of the savage crime of terrorism – almost all of it by organizations on the Left, with support from the USSR and some from Communist China, through the Cold War years 1968-1990 – was an affront to the ideology of the 'woke'"
Another excellent article by Greenfield (posted in its entirety) about academics erasing any evidence of their former Soviet past.

“The Baader-Meinhof gang had come out of the communards. The Communards, even more degenerate and deadlier versions of American leftists who flirted with terrorism and terror trolling, embraced Mao and experimented with everything, were not easy targets for journalists.”
The Communards mentioned here (named after members of the 1871 Paris Commune) was also known as the Movement 2 June aka 2 June Movement, a German terrorist group akin to the Red Army Faction but subscribing to an anarchist rather than a Marxist ideology. It emerged from the Kommune 1 offshoot of the German version of SDS, which had been radicalized by 1959 and helped nurture the American SDS in its early phases; and from a terrorist group called Tupamaros West-Berlin, which had been trained by Fatah and was involved in bombing a synagogue on the anniversary of Kristallnacht in 1969. Prominent members included Michael “Bommi” Baumann, whose father had been a Nazi and whose family lived in the Soviet zone of Berlin in his youth; and his friend Georg von Rauch, who rented an apartment from Otto Schily, an attorney who later represented the Red Army Faction, cofounded the Green Party, forged an alliance between the Greens and Gaddafi, and became a member of Gerhard Schroeder’s cabinet. You can think of Movement 2 June and its predecessors as a German counterpart to groups like the Weather Underground and the Revolutionary Communist Party which spun off from the American SDS. Their history is intertwined with that of Antifa in Germany.
