ABSTRACT
The terrorist phenomenon is, alas, an ecliptical one, unpredictable, and can resurge for reasons unknown which sometimes are more related to developments on the international scene than the national context. The Belgians in fact, discovered to their amazement that their country was no longer sheltered from the wave of terrorism which had swept nearly all of Europe. Responsibility for five bomb attacks was claimed by the mysterious 'Cellules Communistes Combatian tes' (CCC) of which no one had ever heard. To the CCC, the German, Italian, Basque and Irish terrorists were exemplary figures in the revolutionary campaign. In fact, several attacks of an unsophisticated nature against the Secretariat of the North Atlantic Assembly, against buildings belonging to the AEG Telefunken company and against offices of the Bayer Belgium company, were claimed to be the work of a mysterious 'Revolutionary Front for Proletarian Action' (FRAP).
