...church-state dispute was further complicated last week by the execution of a young anarchist, Salvador Puig Antrich, 26, for the murder of a policeman in Barcelona. Puig was a Catalan, a member of Spain's other belligerent minority, and his death was the first political execution in a decade. It touched off protest marches all round the country. Many Spaniards were appalled by the fact that Puig had been killed by garroting.* In protest, Camilo José Cela, Spain's best-known contemporary novelist (The Family of Pascual Duarte, Pavilion of Repose), refused to take his seat...
...make a choice between God, Who may not exist, and creatures as loathsome as Mendele Shmeiser and his females," and he goes back to his yeshiva. But not all Singer's characters choose this way. Some of them choose the world, or try to change it--the anarchist in "Property," for instance, although he turns up later as a Miami Beach landlord, "fat and flabby...in shorts and a pink flowered shirt"--and Singer seems to think others should have...
Perhaps the film's most admirable aspect is its relatively evenhanded portrayal of Stone's politics.

Without criticizing Stone's published work in depth, Bruck at least does justice to his subject's conflicting impulses...

The first actions of the Committee were directed against the provocateurs and government spies inside the Institute, who had started writing "Down with the State," "Down with Authority," on the walls to give an anarchist image to the movement. The anarchist or provocateur elements which student leaders said were planted by government also controlled a radio station from which they transmitted messages which could potentially discredit the movement as an anarchistic, apolitical movement...
...lifelong pacifist who would never set off bombs himself, makes a distinction between massive, repressive violence like the terror bombing of Indochina and violent resistance to that sort of repression, like the National Liberation Front's or, presumably, Armstrong's. He's like William Lloyd Garrison, a lifelong anarchist who didn't disapprove of other people's voting for antislavery parties. Each person must oppose injustice and violence according to his own nature, Dellinger and Garrison implied. Some with broadsides and some with ballots, some with bumper stickers and some with bombs...
