«Οι στολές ήταν ομοιόμορφες, τα παντελόνια στρατιωτικά, τα σακίδια επίσης και οι κινήσεις σίγουρες κι αποφασιστικές, χωρίς ενδοιασμούς ή επιφυλάξεις» επισημαίνουν οι ίδιοι, εξηγώντας ότι «όσοι συμμετείχαν στην επιχείρηση ήθελαν να δηλώσουν τον στρατιωτικό της χαρακτήρα και βεβαίως να προστατεύσουν μέσα από την ομοιομορφία των στολών την ανωνυμία των δραστών».Καλά, η ατάκα πως είναι αξιοσημείωτο ότι "κατά τη διαφυγή τους φρόντισαν να εναποθέσουν εμπόδια στον δρόμο, ώστε να καθυστερήσει οποιαδήποτε προσπάθεια καταδίωξής τους" σίγουρα είναι από τους Ντυπόν και Ντυπόν.

According to a confidential report by German domestic intelligence officials, 2007-- the same year in which "The Coming Insurrection" appeared -- marked a "turning point in the development of German left-wing extremism." In particular, the report says that protests against the G-8 summit in Heiligendamm triggered an escalation in left-wing violence. It also notes that left-wing militants have succeeded in attracting support from young people who had hitherto been outside the core left-wing scene.

Although the BLA’s reach extended across the country, New York was the center of BLA operations. Attacks on the police fostered a climate of fear within the ranks of the NY Police Department. As one patrolman said in early 1972, “I’m carrying my police special plus two non-reg weapons and I’m still scared shitless to walk on my beat.” As far as the New York police were concerned, the BLA was a criminal, cop-killing enterprise—despite whatever revolutionary rhetoric it chose to spout.
The FBI saw things differently. The BLA was criminal, to be sure, but it was not a gang of ordinary lawbreakers. In the bureau’s view, the BLA was a national security threat, primarily domestic in nature, but with possible links to hostile governments in the Middle East. The FBI seldom used the term “terrorist” to describe the BLA. In a July 1973 bulletin, the bureau drew a distinction between terrorists, who sought to “focus attention on a particular grievance,” and guerrillas, who are “working toward revolution.” In the opinion of a senior FBI official, the BLA clearly was in the latter category: “[the] avowed aim of the BLA is revolution.” To thwart such subversion, the FBI undertook what it termed “full penetrative investigations” which relied heavily on informants who were close to the BLA.
