capitol bombing 1971

WEATHER UNDERGROUND ... On March 1, 1971, the group carried out their most destructive plan yet when they placed a bomb inside the Capitol building in Washington, D.C. The explosions blew out the windows of the building and racked up $300,000 worth of property damage, but there were no causalities. On May 19, 1972, the group placed an explosive device inside a bathroom at the Pentagon to celebrate Ho Chi Minh's birthday. Once again, no was hurt but the explosion did cause flooding and the destruction of government computer systems. https://groovyhistory.com/weather-underground-bombing
