I guess the Weathermen were just joking when they set off a bomb in the Pentagon

On May 19, 1972, Ho Chi Minh’s birthday, The Weather Underground placed a bomb in the women’s bathroom in the Air Force wing of The Pentagon. The damage caused flooding that destroyed computer tapes holding classified information. Other radical groups worldwide applauded the bombing, illustrated by German youths protesting against American military systems in Frankfurt.[15] This was "in retaliation for the U.S. bombing raid in Hanoi." [NYT, 5/19/72]
