1972 MANILA BOMBINGS PART 1

In 1972 in Manila (the Philippine capital where Zodiac Killer George Hill Hodel resided), the communist New People’s Army carried out a series of bombings that eventually allowed President Marcos to impose martial law. A training and military supply of the militants was evident and the first attack took place on March 15, 1972 on Taft Avenue in Pasay near the De La Salle University. Lorado Taft was a friend of Frank Lloyd Wright, the father of the designer of Hodel’s Franklin Sowden House in Los Angeles. The operation follows the case of the disappearance of Steven Norman Chait, who was kidnapped after leaving Columbia University. Taft was known for having attended the World’s Columbian Exposition with the White Rabbits, which also included Enid Yandell, who had set up his first study on Broadway in Louisville, Kentucky.__

Nel 1972 a Manila (la capitale filippina dove risiedeva lo Zodiac Killer George Hill Hodel), l’esercito comunista del New People’s Army attuò una serie di attentati che alla fine consentirono al Presidente Marcos di imporre la legge marziale. Un addestramento e fornitura militare dei militanti era evidente ed il primo attentato è avvenuto il 15 marzo 1972 in Taft Avenue a Pasay nei pressi dell’università De La Salle. Lorado Taft era un amico di Frank Lloyd Wright, il padre del progettista della Franklin Sowden House di Hodel a Los Angeles. L’operazione fa seguito al caso della scomparsa di Steven Norman Chait, rapito all’uscita dalla Columbia University. Taft era noto per aver partecipato alla World’s Columbian Exposition assieme alle White Rabbits, fra cui figurava anche Enid Yandell, che aveva messo a punto il proprio primo studio a Broadway in Lousiville, Kentucky.
