“In 1894, the French intellectual Émile Henry nursed two beers in a Parisian café as the orchestra played to a room of wealthy patrons. After paying his bill and getting up to leave, Henry removed a bomb from his overcoat pocket, lit the fuse with his cigar, and threw the bomb into the café, toward the orchestra, leaving five widows and ten orphans. ‘This was the first modern terrorist act,’ wrote the late historian John Merriman in his book The Dynamite Club. ‘It was the day that ordinary people became the targets of terrorists.’ Today, such terror has become frighteningly normal in America.” (09/15/25)
