The Baader Meinhof Complex Page #5

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!

Sh*t!

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.

Sh*t.

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! F***ing 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.
