January 21, 2009 - San Francisco, CA - PipeLineNews.org - Almost from its inception, the Weather Underground [WU] was viewed with great concern by the FBI. As a result, the decision was made to place a high level informant within the group to help keeps tabs on its members' activities.

That person was Larry Grathwohl, a Vietnam veteran and the only publicly identified FBI informant who succeeded in penetrating the Weather Underground, serving in that capacity from August 1969 until April 1970. Prior to his service in the FBI, he was a member of the Cincinnati Police force.

PipeLineNews.org contacted Mr. Grathwohl yesterday so that he might be able to provide further insight into Ayers' real history, devoid of revisionism.

Though Ayers is currently touring the country pushing a newly authored manual on "social justice" and speaking at American colleges [including the Moraga, California campus of St. Mary's] his past suggests a far more sinister devotion.

When asked to provide additional detail about the Detroit bombings, Grathwold said:

"Bill likes to present himself as an anti war protestor and justify his participation in so called "property" bombings as a reaction to the violence of the Vietnam War. He states that he never participated in a bombing that resulted in an injury or death. Absolutely untrue! The instructions he gave to me regarding the bombings in Detroit were specific; the bombs should contain anti personal materials and should be placed when the greatest number of people were present for the maximum affect. When I pointed out the Red Barn restaurant next to the DPOA building would most likely sustain the greatest damage resulting in people being killed Bill responded, 'innocent people have to die in a revolution.'"
