FLOSSI IS ON THE CASE

At the beginning of the 20th century, anarchist attacks occurred in various parts of the world, reflecting the turbulence and ideological fervor of the time. Many of these attacks remain unsolved, either due to a lack of forensic capabilities at the time or because perpetrators operated clandestinely. Here are some notable unsolved or unresolved anarchist attacks from that era:

Wall Street Bombing (1920)

Location: New York City, USA.

Date: September 16, 1920.

A horse-drawn wagon filled with explosives and iron weights was detonated on Wall Street near the headquarters of J.P. Morgan & Co.

The blast killed 38 people and injured more than 400.

Despite extensive investigations, no one was ever arrested or charged.

Milwaukee Police Station Bombing (1917)

Location: Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA.

Date: November 24, 1917.

A package bomb exploded in the central police station, killing nine police officers and one civilian.

The bomb had been left outside the Italian Evangelical Mission Church and was brought to the police station, where it detonated.

Preparedness Day Bombing (1916)

Location: San Francisco, California, USA.

Date: July 22, 1916.

A bomb exploded during a parade in support of U.S. military preparedness for World War I, killing 10 people and injuring 40.

Thomas Mooney and Warren Billings were controversially convicted but later pardoned due to lack of evidence.

Haymarket Affair (1886) – Precursor Event

Location: Chicago, Illinois, USA.

Date: May 4, 1886.

During a peaceful rally for workers’ rights, a bomb was thrown at police officers, killing seven officers and several civilians.

The bombing led to a nationwide crackdown on anarchists and labor activists.

While eight anarchists were convicted, the identity of the person who threw the bomb remains unknown.

The Galleanist Bombings (1919)

Location: Across the United States.

Date: 1919.

A series of bombings orchestrated by anarchists associated with Luigi Galleani targeted prominent political and business figures, including J.P. Morgan Jr. and U.S. Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer.

Bombs were often disguised as packages or mailed directly.

The attacks contributed to the First Red Scare in the United States and led to extensive crackdowns on leftist and anarchist groups.
