West Germany and West Berlin
should not be safe bases.

They must know that their crimes
against the Vietnamese people...

have created bitter enemies.

That there is no place in the world

safe from attack by
revolutionary Guerilla units. "

Offical Statement on bombing.

"We demand an end to
the bombing of Vietnam.

We demand the withdrawal
of US troops from Indochina.

We demand an end to the
naval blockade of North Vietnam. "

Police minister Herbert
Schoner was shot dead.

Two shots, one in the heart.

Also wounded was 25-year old
Manfred Fichtner from Kiel.

...in Hamburg, policeman
Heinz Eckart was shot...

"We carry out attacks on
judge and state lawyers

in retaliation against them
for holding political prisoners.

We demand that these laws are repealed.

We have no other means
to enforce our demands.

Petra Schelm Brigade. "

Police headquarters in
Augsburg were attacked today.

Five policemen were injured.
An attack in Munich followed.

Experts are searching for
the remains of the explosive device.

The senior public prosecutor has
offered 10,000 Marks reward.

The car is being examined
by Federal Police specialists.

A bomb tore apart the car of
High Court Judge Wolfgang Buddenberg,

as his wife started the engine.

Judge Buddenberg ruled against
the Baader-Meinhof group.

His wife remains in hospital
with serious injuries...

but is out of intensive care.

Shit.
We need more grinders.

...there are roadblocks on all
streets near the city center.

Heavily armed police are everywhere

Axel Springer publishing house.
- A bomb will go off in 5 minutes time.

Evacuate the building.
- Who are you?

Is it the nutcase again?
- Please stop calling us.

Stupid pig!

We demand that Springer newspapers

stop publishing lies about
liberation movements of the third world,

particularly about the
movement to free Palestine.

Our actions will only cease
when our demands are met.

The Federal Government condemns these
attacks with indignation and abhorrence.

Federal Chancellor Brandt called
the attacks "cowardly and devious".

Springer accepted the risk
that the bomb threat was genuine

rather than lose profits
by evacuating their workers.

For capitalism,
profit is everything,

people, who create it, are dirt.

We are deeply sorry
that workers were injured...

What do you suggest?

They can see that the
government is under pressure.

We strike the water.
- Pardon?

When you strike the water,
the fish surface...

I need the entire police force,
detectives, uniformed, all of them.

For one day, under the command of the
Federal Bureau of Criminal Investigation.

But that would be...
That would be at least 130,000 men.

That's right.
And all the helicopters, too.

And to close the borders.

We hit the entire
Federal Republic in one day.

That'll drive the fish
up and into our nets.

Cars are being searched
all motorways and arterial roads,

causing long delays
at border crossings.

All available officials
in West Germany are taking part.

By noon today, police
in Hamberg checked 15,000 cars.

It's a police state,
just like you said.

The public supports these measures.

It's not looking
good for the Revolution.

Shut up! Urban guerrillas operate
in the rift between the state and the people!

Checkpoints have been set up at all
public buildings, airports, and sporting events.

Vehicles were searched. Photographs of
possible RAF members were distributed.

As Mao Tse-tung once said...
you've heard it before...

but I'll remind you today. He said:

"When the enemy slanders us,

that is good.
Because it proves,

that there is a clear
line between them and us.

When the enemy paints
us in the blackest colors,

that's better.
Because it shows,

that there is not only a clear
distinction between them and us,

but also that we have achieved
a great deal in our work. "

The container.
It's been moved.

That's not my powder.

Don't move! Police!

Freeze! Drop the gun!

Halt! Police!
Drop the gun!

Shit!

Throw your weapons
into the yard and come out!

The longer you wait,
the stronger our forces.

We have you surrounded.
There is no chance of escape.

Come out or we'll storm
the building. Why are you waiting?

I repeat:
Come out now.

You have no chance,
this is not a game.

Do you want to get out of this alive?

There is no chance of escape.

Your only chance is to surrender now.

If you come out with hands up,
nothing will happen to you.

We can wait all day.
We are in control here.

We control the entire area.
There is no way out.

Police searching for the Baader-Meinhof group

in Frankfurt this morning
achieved a major success

Beside Baader, Holger Meins was arrested,
which greatly weakens the leadership of the group.

Shit.

There, great Terrorist.
Shoot your way out.

That's for Norbert.
- And that's for Heinz.

Can I try it on?
- Changing room over there.

This way. That's the jacket.

No! No!

No! Help!

No! Fucking cops!

Let go! No!

Is that you?

Are you Ulrike Meinhof?

Silence.

I'm over here!
I'm over here!

Here!

I'm over here!

Here!

The Minister of the Interior
congratulates you on your great successes.

The Minister of the Interior
says the RAF is finished.

I now declare the 1972 Olympic Games open.

World record!

...in disguise, into the
the Israeli teams's lodgings.

...Israeli Coach Moshe Weinberg
was killed with two shots to the head...

The Black September group is
demanding the release of over 230 prisoners

...in exchange for the release of the hostages.

If the prisoners are not released
the hostages will be killed...

Our worst fears have
become bitter reality.

With the terrible events of the past week...

at The Munich Olympics,
all of our hopes for peace...

have come crashing down.

We cannot remove all the hatred
and violence from this world

We must be prepared to fight
the forces of evil.

Gentlemen,

our duty is to fight terrorism.

And, if possible, to end it.
Tell me your ideas.

We need a special force,
to shut down these lunatics.

Strong words don't
work against terrorists.

A special-purpose force
is absolutley crucial.

But those measures alone
will not solve the problem.

The roots lie deeper.
- Namely?

The Israeli occupation of Palestine.
Nobody pays attention to that.

So the terrorists try to
force the world to pay attention.

So you approve of their aims?
- Nadler, don't talk rubbish.

I never said that.
However,

one must understand their motives.

So, you allow these
murderers a special status?

No! But we can't
fight such forces rigidly.

And our ignorance promotes terrorism!

It's true,
but the question is...

whether terrorism
is the new form of war.

Whether it replaces conventional war,
which does not take place any more.

I don't follow you.
What about the victims?

Or their loved ones?
- I understand your anger.

But our duty is to fight terrorism.

And to do that we must understand
the problems of the third world.

The Middle East conflict, the Vietnam war.
Understand these problems objectively!

It feels like an explosion in the head.

Like the cell is full of pressure.

The one feeling
I can't supress. Rage.

The is no release from the pressure.
That's the worst thing about isolation.

The clear knowledge that one
does not have a chance of survival.

Today we begin a hunger strike.

We demand change to
one of the prison conditions:

Equal conditions for political
prisoners to all other prisoners.

A hunger strike is our only way...

to resist in solitary confinement.

The hunger strike is to show

that we will not compromise.

We expect explosions
in the prison system.

The goals must be
set out so that each Rocker,

so everyone, does not
lose their sense of purpose.

That is, so that
they do not break us.

We can say: Each 3rd week,
or each 2nd or 4th week, whatever...

one of us will die.

And so on, until the isolation,

until the torture for all is waived.

But the hunger strike will only work
if we all stick to it together

Until our demands are met.
Even if some of us die.

Counsellor, just a few minutes.
The prisoner is very much weakened.

Gudrun wrote to me.

This is our goal. You decide it,
when you die. Freedom or death.

Just in case,
if I pass from this life,

It's murder.

If the pigs keep this up, it's murder.
Do not believe the lies of murderers.

Get me a cigarette.

I don't know what will
happen, I should die.

If I'm killed.

What next?

That's it.

Which side is right?

It's not so clear.

The final battle to free
mankind from the pigs.

The revolutionary struggle.

With love for life
and with contempt for death.

I serve the people.

Get the prison doctor here, now.
- But it's the weekend.

Then get his assistant.
- We don't have one.

Then call in an outside doctor.
- We're not authorized.

He's dying in there!
Get a doctor! Now!

Unfortunately, we can't do a thing.

One day after the death of Holger Meins,

of the Baader-Meinhof Group,
who died while on hunger strike,

Berlin Chief Justice Drenkmann
was shot dead in his home.

We do not shed tears for Drenkmann.
We are pleased by his execution.

...attacks on judges and lawyers
who prosecuted the Anarchists.

Lawyers for Holger Meins today
launched a wrongful death action...

It was necessary, because
each judge and cop must know...

that they will be held
responsible for their deeds.

That's Rudi Dutschke.

Holger, the fight goes on.

The trial of Baader and the others
begins in 4 weeks, here in Stammheim.

The pictures are of the
security wing on the 7th floor.

The prisoners will be kept here.
- Men and women together?

Indeed, they demanded it.
- Outrageous.

So they will cooperate during the trial.
- We provide a terror center!

It's important that
the trial goes smoothly.

We of the Federal Police can
monitor the group's communications.

And we most certainly will.

Go! Go!

Everyone out! Go!

The German Embassy in Stockholm
was occupied by terrorists today

They threaten to kill hostages
unless their demands are met.

The terrorists have released
a statement to the German government.

Eye-witnesses reported shots.
The police closed off the area.

About 100 People reportedly
remain in the embassy.

Emergency units are treating
those who escaped the building

A caller claiming to be a member
of the RAF demanded the release...

Authorities believe the attack
is a last desperate attempt...

to demand the release of RAF prisoners
in Stammheim before the trial begins.

No fire in the cell!
- Kiss my arse. We're leaving.

...will shoot one hostage every hour.

Storm the building and
we blow up it. We leave only...

if our demands are fulfilled.

Withdraw or they blow it up!

They refuse to withdraw.
- Then we prove we're serious. Translate.

I am von Mirbach, Military Attach?
They will shoot me...

if you do not withdraw.
- Leave! Leave now!

The first explosion
occurred shortly before midnight.

In minutes the whole building was
in flames, while the terrorists dug in.

The explosions
followed each other closely...

as police stormed the burning building.

The hostage drama, which ended
last night in explosions and gunfire,

has claimed at least three lives,
two of them embassy staff.

Among them was Heinz Hillegaart,
chief of the catering department.

It is still unclear whether he was shot,
like Military Attache von Mirbach,

or whether he died in the explosions.
The 3rd death was one of the terrorists.

Five terrorists were arrested:
Siegfried Hausner, Bernhard R�ssner,

Karl-Heinz Dellwo, Lutz Taufner
and Hanna Krabbe.

What a shitty action.

Shitty action!

The Swedish government delivered
the captured terrorists to Germany.

Today the severely wounded
Siegfried Hausner was flown to Stammheim.

I'll hold you responsible!
If the prisoner dies,

he'll be, after Holger Meins,
the second to die in our custody.

With such incompetence we'll
give the RAF another martyr!

This is a prison. We're not
equipped for severely wounded people!

We must keep him here. Orders.
- That's completely insane.

The two public defenders
are sufficient for Mr Baader.

If he doesn't want them, too bad.

They do not defend me.
They never even spoke with me!

Incidently, someone has written
"head off" beside my microphone.

Beside my microphone it says "head off"!
What do you think it means?

I don't know what it means.

I am unable to take part in this trial.

I am not nearly able,
in this place, at this time,

I cannot say what...
I mean... I can't tell...

I request an examination for us,
by an independent physician.

Rejected.

They say we're not isolated,
because we have slightly larger cells.

I say: We were,
up till a short time ago,

completely isolated for the last 3 years!

Our only human contact was
through a tiny slot in the cell door.

Someone stood behind the door and wrote.
- I rule you out of order!

Why do you change my notes
suddenly, without explanation?

Because that things
you write have no power.

There's no need to do that.

You jump on my errors
and go on and on about it.

I could write a book on
your foolishness. Guard!

Your tired act,
I'm sick of it.

I've had my fill of this.
You're driving me crazy!

Really, I don't get it.

What's their problem, the bitches?

It's the last straw that
they allowed Hausner to die.

They're not fooling anyone.
- You're a bullshit revolutionary!

We have to get out of here.

It's not easy to recruit
new troops after Stockholm.

You argue with your emotion,
you shitty egoist! You have no clue!

Not a clue! Piss off!

Piss off, arsehole!

Get us out of here, you sow!

Get us out of here!

Sow! Arsehole!

Get us out of here, you sow!

Mrs Meinhof, you are obliged to remain.
The accusations against you stand.

You can't force me, arsehole.

I decide that, "arsehole" or not.

It's about time you admitted it.

The accused is today excluded,

Because she called
the chairman an "arsehole".

Then you also exclude me.
- That's not for you to decide!

Does it come to physical force?
- Sit! Sit down in your place.

Go on with your ridiculous procedure.
I'll disturb it so long as I'm here.

Do we really need to hear it?

I'll say it too:
You're a fascist arsehole!

We can't defend ourselves
so we refuse to participate.

Old sow.

You... you are deranged!

Did I hear you
call me an "old sow"?

Did I hear that right,
or am I mistaken?

I want it to be carefully noted!
And you, Mr Baader,

You called me a
"fascist arsehole".

Filthy rat.

The defendants are excused.

This court
adjourns for consulation.

Ulrike, how is she? Very dark.
A Vampire, trembling with bloodlust.

Ulrike tries to laugh,
it doesn't work.

Necrophile. Hysteric.
Really absolutely ugly me.

Although I still say
my reason hasn't left me.

It's separate from me.

This is shit.

She gives me false information.
Gudrun transcribes it wrong.

Why do you do that?
Is it because you want to torment me?

I return the agony.
An eye for an eye.

I don't look at it.
I can't bear it.

I am not a witch,
but I am sometimes brutal.

Don't pretend.
You hate us. It's obvious.

So stop eating, until you're
better, or go to the Devil.

How are we to attain our goals,
if we blow workers up?

Show the reports you wrote on us.
- I know, Springer was an error.

That went against our aims.
- We've discussed this a thousand times.

We've been through this! Many times!
- The action was counter revolutionary!

Real revolutionaries would
have shot you for that!

The question is:
How can an isolated prisoner...

make the authorities recognise
that his behavior has changed? How?

In isolation, the prisoner can't
show that his behaviour has changed.

There's only one possibility.
And that is betrayal.

The prisoner in isolation
has no other chance.

So there are two possibilities.

I will speak now!
A prisoner can be silent,

and die,
or a prisoner can talk.

That is confession and betrayal.
And based on this fact,

the Federal High Court resolution
makes a clear and definite statement.

That is torture.
Designed to force confessions.

To confuse, demoralise, and punish.

You're the knife in the back of the RAF.

Because you never learn.

It is mysterious,
if I say I can't bear it?

I don't bear it any more.
That is what I can't bear.

We are responsible for the
attacks on CIA headquarters...

on the 5th US Corps in Frankfurt
and on US headquarters in Heidelberg.

We are also
responsible for the bombing

of the Springer building.
Beyond that, we have no knowledge.

We had no part in the planning
or the execution of any other actions.

The Anarchist Ulrike
Meinhof took her own life.

She was found dead this morning
in her cell in Stuttgart-Stammheim.

Ulrike Meinhof, that was murder!

The 41-year-old hung herself with
a towel tied to the window bars.

There will be an autopsy later today.

The 109th day of the hearing in Stammheim
was unusually crowded this morning.

The court-appointed defense
counsels made a request...

to adjourn the trial for 10 days.

To investigate whether Ulrike
Meinhof really committed suicide.

We believe Ulrike was executed.

We don't know how, but we know who.
Chief Federal Prosecutor Buback said:

"The State protects those
who support the State.

Herold and I always find a way. "
- These defamatory remarks...

It was a coldly conceived execution!
Like Holger Meins and Siegfried Hausner!

The execution of Ulrike now!

Fascist! Murderer!
- Silence!

Under your jurisdiction as judges
two prisoners out of five were killed!

Why were Schubert, M�ller
and Mohnhaupt brought to Stammheim?

The public prosecutor's office gave in
to the pressure of public opinion.

I allowed it, in order
to prevent further suicides.

Baader und Ensslin...

RAF prisoners were allowed
to transfer to Stammheim.

Time's up! Return to your cells!
- Stop eating.

Mohnhaupt will be free in 7 Months.
Those jerks guaranteed it.

Baader and Ensslin
probably insisted on it.

Lovely to see you.

Are you Charlie?

I want to talk with him alone.

Andreas and Gudrun trust you.
- How are they?

They're shitty! We must
get them out of there, soon.

Before they end up
like Ulrike und Holger.

A few think we should hijack
a 747 and circle it over Bonn.

With an ultimatum to exchange
our people in 6 to 8 hours.

Then let it fall.
In the middle of Bonn.

We heard of that plan. No.
No actions against the people.

We stick with the kidnappings.
How far advanced are you?

Ready to go.
Here, before I forget it...

I brought this for you.

Nearly 5 years prison...
- It's a long time.

That's how long since I fucked a guy.

They need weapons.
If another escape attempt fails...

They want to be able to make a choice.

You must not mention it
to the others. No matter what happens.

Very pretty, the medal.
- Very much.

Congrats!

You work on your honour day?

Gottfried Hagemann. You remember,
the lawyer. With his arrest...

We found coded
operational plans on him.

Big arsehole.

HM Auschecken. Margarine.
What is your conclusion?

Siegfried, we're expecting an
act of revenge against you.

On 7.4.77 the Kommando Ulrike Meinhof
executed Chief Federal Prosecutor Buback.

Siegfried Buback was directly
responsible for the murder of Holger Meins,

Siegfried Hausner, and Ulrike Meinhof.

As Chief Federal Prosecutor,
he ordered their murders.

Under Bubacks regime,
Holger on 9.11.74.

was murdered by starvation.

Under Bubacks regime,
Ulrike on 9.5.76.

was illegally executed,

in a faked suicide by hanging.

Under our laws, for which
Ulrike fought, justice was done.

We will not allow our
comrades to be murdered,

We will show the authorities that
when prisoners continue to fight,

killing them will not solve the
problem. Kommando Ulrike Meinhof.

We could not protect him.
- I ask myself:

Why do new terror units always
develop? What motivates them?

A myth.

Come on in,
Mr Ponto is expecting you.

Thanks.

You brought a whole committee.
- I wanted to show them your place.

My friends. Klara.
- Good day.

Gerd.
- Herr Ponto, shall I stay?

No, you may go.
Come outside.

What a lovely surprise.
I'll be with you in a moment.

I'll put those in a vase. Sit down.

Klara.

Go to the exit. Come along.
- Are you mad?

You are a prisoner of the RAF.
- Are you mad?

Go, get out!

I didn't want that!
How do I explain to my parents?

We agreed, no guns! And only a tap
on the head, if he resists.

We wanted to kidnap him!
- Why are you here?

To play the female Robin Hood
without getting your hands dirty?

You crybaby! You sign the claim
of responsibility. - No! Never!

On the execution of Ponto, we say:

It is a clear warning to those types.

If you wage war on the people,
then war will be waged on you.

Susanne Albrecht,
soldier of the RAF.

The door stays open!

We do not accept locked doors!
Hey! No locked doors!

Now you'll have the war you wanted!

You pigs! You filthy pigs!

Let me go. Idiot.
Fucking shitty cops!

You wanker! Fucking leave her alone!

You sow! Let go!

How much longer?
- Soon. Nearly done.

229, 12th line, 4th word.

9, 10, 11, 12... 3,4.

Finished.

We forestalled our
planned liquidation.

We retain our identity.

"We know there is a
concrete plan to kill us.

Surrender is impossible.
You must hurry.

We do not need to say more. "

That is clear. If we do nothing,
they've given us straight facts.

What "straight facts"?
- It's very clear, OK?

If we don't get them out
immediately, they're dead.

Now what?
- Schleyer goes on vacation tomorrow.

For how long?
- Several weeks.

Then let's do it
tomorrow. Why not?

We'll have to do it the hard way.
- What's that mean? Hard?

It means we shoot the escorts,
all of them, to get to Schleyer.

The SEK are armed and trained.
It'll be a combat situation.

The driver isn't SEK, though.
- You miserable wanker!

The prisoners will be murdered!
- Stop it!

Let's get our plan in order.
- I can't do this.

I can't be a part of this.
- OK. Then you better leave now.

We need to discuss plans.
They don't concern you any more.

Brigitte, you can't do this.
If you're captured again...

I am in charge here.
We'll discuss that later.

Now let's find out who's
willing to do it the hard way.

What about you?

It's safe to assume...

that Schleyer is being held
within 20 km of the scene.

Less than two hours ago it happened.

Five weeks after the
murder of the banker Ponto...

an assassination attempt
on Hanns Martin Schleyer.

Four police officers from
the escort were killed.

The search for
the attackers continues.

Schleyer is not among
the dead. It is obvious...

that the terrorists
have kidnapped him.

The manhunt goes on.

All the official parties
condemned the attack on Schleyer.

Now you have a problem.
Now you have a big problem!

Their reign of terror has not yet ended.

And they are feeling triumphant now.

But they must make no mistake.

...the Siegfried Hausner Kommando...

has taken the president of the employers
association, Hanns Martin Schleyer, prisoner.

The will of the German people is not broken.

They're sealing us in!
- They're doing what?

A Lufthansa airliner has been hijacked.

The aircraft was en route from Majorca
to Frankfurt, but was diverted to Rome.

86 passengers, mostly
Germans, are on board.

...footage of kidnapped
businessman Hanns Schleyer...

reading a statement from his captors...

You can see my current circumstances.

The government in Bonn
must make a decision.

The actions of the German goverment
prove that they are the terrorists.

The state, which claims to promote freedom...

...uses the methods of totaliarianism...

in the name of fighting terrorism.

I Have, so far, been
treated well by my captors...

Pressure on the
government is growing...

as the hijackers demand the
release of political prisoners...

including the RAF
prisoners in Stammheim.

As the hijack drama continues...

...reported to have
shot the pilot...

...threatened to kill one
passenger every 5 minutes...

The Pope has sent a plea for
the release of the passengers.

At Aden airport,
passengers and crew...

...swap for prisoners...

...have arrived in Cairo...

...prisoners in his country will be...

...emergency landing!

Baader Meinhof Gang terrorists who
are also holding Hanns-Martin Schleyer...

...passenger swap in Dubai.

...do not condone the
actions of political gangsters.

Comrade, they turned us down.

And where does that leave us?

Everything's gone wrong! Everything!

They've taken off again.
One pilot shot.

The plan was to stay in Aden.

What does it mean?

Baby. This thing is complete bullshit.

...landed in Somalia yesterday.

The body of pilot J�rgen
Schumann was dumped...

...before taking off again.

We cannot intervene, even if...

we could actually speak with them.

We do not approve of
killing innocent civilians.

The Federal Government,
unlike ourselves,

goes too far, is too violent.

I want to see the prison chaplain.

Whatever happens, it's not our doing.

Our policies are far more measured.

Do you really believe that?

Last month, 8 children
were left fatherless.

We have no control over
the actions of those outside.

We will be judged by
generations to come.

If Schleyer escapes, good.
I'm tired of it.

I wish to request...

materials to make a will.

The full legal documents, if possible.

And I'd like some help
in filling it out properly.

But Miss Ennslin...

With that done, I will
no longer fear my fate.

But surely you don't feel
that you are in danger?

I could die at any time.

You know what is going on outside...

that they're trying
to get us out of here.

That fight has international dimensions.

What are you getting at?

I ask you this:

Wouldn't they prefer
to see me vanish?

Many states would want that.

In Western industrial countries
the power structures...

are not so secure that they would wish...

to encourage a new wave
of resistance groups to develop.

What is your influence
on the current situation?

Free us, and the current
actions will be successful.

Would the government
want that to happen?

The judges and the politicians,

they want to avoid
that at all costs.

Miss Ennslin, I hope
we can continue to meet.

Farewell, father.

We have just recieved confirmation...

the Luftahansa terrorist
hijacking has ended...

with all of the 86
passengers safely rescued.

A spokesman for the Ministry
of the Interior has confirmed...

that a German anti-terrorist
squad stormed the plane last night.

The Bonn government
has issued a statement...

"... refused to release
the jailed terrorists. "

...these brutal actions
have not suceeded. "

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

Mr Raspe.

Miss M�ller. Miss M�ller.

Alive.

Miss Ennslin.

The pigs really did it.

They killed all of them!
- Enough.

But they killed them all!
- Open murder!

They sacrificed themselves.
The time was not right.

What? Are you joking? What do you mean?

They were at risk.

Get them out immediately! Immediately!

Those were your words.

They knew the risks.
They had their alternatives.

They made their choices.

What happened was their own doing.

And Ulrike?

Her, too.

I think they recognised...

that the end had come.
