EROS as an armed outfit is completely inactive, while some former members of the group have founded a legitimate political party bearing the same name.

Both the origin and political orientation of Revolutionary Force Seven remain unknown. The group was evidently formed solely for the purpose of carrying out four attacks, all on June 2, 1970, against various Latin American embassies in Washington, DC.  <P><br />Historical context can shed some light on the group. The four nations whose embassies were attacked  --  Argentina, The Dominican Republic, Uruguay and Haiti  --  were all Cold War allies of the United States and all ruled by right-wing military dictatorships at points in their history. The exact philosophy of Revolutionary Force Seven is unknown, but two likely possibilities are that the group was comprised of Latin Americans opposed to their own governments and to the American presence there, or the group was comprised of United States citizens.

Revolutionary Force Seven is presumed to be inactive.

The Revolutionary Front for Communism is similar to other terrorist groups operating in Italy today.  The similarities include the espousal of workers right rhetoric, a limited number of members operating in any particular group, references to other terrorist groups, and violent tactics.  However the Revolutionary Front for Communism is an anomaly in several ways.<p><p>This group is in some ways a new type of terrorist organization operating in Italy.  The group acknowledges the historical legacy of the communist Red Brigades of the 1970s and 1980s.  In addition, the Revolutionary Front for Communism espouses many of the traditional slogans and propaganda of other Marxist-Leninists terrorists of Italy.  But unlike many of the Marxist-Leninists terrorists of today, the Revolutionary Front for Communism also spouts the new catchphrases of anti-globalizers.  The group has included both Marxist reasoning in its communiques, as well as criticism of the death of anti-globalization protestors.  <p><p>The group lacks the ideological structure of the original Red Brigades, and in many ways demonstrates similarities to anarchist terrorists who often espouse multiple ambitions in defense of their use of violence.  Finally, the Revolutionary Front for Communism has criticized the New Red Brigades of Italy.  It is suspected that the New Red Brigades have become somewhat of an umbrella group for the Communist terrorists of Italy.  The Revolutionary Front for Communism's criticism of the New Red Brigades suggests that the group is operating outside of the New Red Brigades' communist network.
