→‎Terrorist background: National Lawyers Guild & its Terrorist Network
Line 4: Line 4:     
In the 1960s, Dohrn was a leader of the [[Students for a Democratic Society]]'s "[[Weatherman]]" faction, which in 1969 went underground to become America's first terrorist cult.  A [[Chicago]] district attorney named Richard Elrod was seriously injured in the Weatherman riot that erupted during the Chicago "Days of Rage" in October 1969, and he was paralyzed for life as a result. Dohrn later led a celebration of Elrod's paralysis by leading her comrades in a parody of a [[Bob Dylan]] song -- "Lay, Elrod, Lay." Law-enforcement is still investigating a bombing in [[San Francisco]] that killed a policeman, for which Dohrn is one of the suspects. <ref>[http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9F0CE6D7123BF93BA25752C1A965958260 NY Times: "AT HOME WITH: Bernadine Dohrn"]</ref>

Dohrn was hired by the [[National Lawyers Guild]] as National Student Organizer in 1967. While still an NLG representative she traveled to Budapest, Hungary in September 1968 to meet with representatives of [[North Vietnam]] and the [[Vietcong]] terrorists. In July 1969 Dohrn and other SDS Weatherman leaders traveled to [[Cuba]] for more meetings with the Vietnamese Communists. ''New Left Notes'' (August 29, 1969) provided an eight-page special supplement describing what took place and stating that the Vietcong wanted the Weathermen to organize violent protests in the United States against support of South Vietnam.<ref>[http://www.geocities.com/capitolhill/senate/1777/nlgterr.htm National Lawyers Guild & its Terrorist Network]
