It is the same. Two wrongs do not make a right. The Weathermen apparently believed that because revolutions were taking place in Nicaragua, Cuba, etc., that they could spark the same here. I argue that if they have actually been to Nicaragua, knew anything of it's history, culture, and poverty, they would have known that what applies there does not apply here. Completely different situations. But I never suggested that what the U.S. Government did in Chile, Vietnam, or any other country was justified.

This is a HUGE problem of morality all over the world and leaves the question of what resort (if any is justified) poor people have against the rich and powerful apart from suicide bombers.
