====Armed propaganda==== In 2006, Dan Berger (writer, activist, and longtime anti-racism organizer){{sfn|Berger|2006}}{{Page needed|date=November 2024}} states that following their initial set of bombings, which resulted in the [[Greenwich Village townhouse explosion]], the organization adopted a new paradigm of direct action set forth in the communiqué ''[[New Morning, Changing Weather]]'', which abjured attacks on people.{{sfn|Berger|2006}}{{Page needed|date=November 2024}} The shift in the organization's outlook was in good part due to the 1970 death of Weatherman [[Terry Robbins]], [[Diana Oughton]] and [[Ted Gold]], all graduate students, in the Greenwich Village townhouse explosion.{{sfn|Varon|2004|p=174}} According to Dan Berger a relatively sophisticated program of [[armed propaganda]] was adopted. This consisted of a series of bombings of government and corporate targets in retaliation for specific imperialist and oppressive acts. Small, well-constructed [[time bomb]]s were used, generally in vents in restrooms, which exploded at times the spaces were empty. Timely warnings were made, and communiqués issued explaining the reason for the actions.{{sfn|Berger|2006|pp=148–154}}
