Finally reached the point in the Red Brigades book where I fully disagree with where they& #39;re going and it was disappointing when I got there

It& #39;s clear what was going on for them, the development of an international policing apparatus meant that the window was closing on the kind of hyper-militant direct action that characterized the Italian class struggle in the late 70s

But because of the way ultra politics worked they had to portray being painted into a corner as an offensive move that they were universally supported in when I don& #39;t think the average person would& #39;ve known about the Entebbe and Mogadishu counter-terrorism actions

The idea of the clandestine urban guerilla as the & #39;vanguard& #39; of the struggle is potentially an interesting one but they treated the struggle as already being at the point of necessitating an international clandestine-guerrilla vanguard because they saw a revolutionary ethos in

wildcat actions, a trend common among spontaneist groups
