Left-wing terrorism is back in business

Published



Left-wing terrorism has been a hush-hush topic throughout modern American history.

From the 1880s through the 1920s, anarchist terrorism, often associated with immigrants, claimed hundreds of lives between shootings and bombings, including President William McKinley, numerous lesser politicians, and even an unsolved bombing of Wall Street, which killed over 30 and wounded hundreds. History repeated in the 1960s with another American left-wing terror wave, borne of anti-Vietnam War protests, which targeted military and federal facilities nationwide, dragging painfully into the 1980s. Their last big attack was bombing Congress in 1983, which miraculously killed no one.
