Ich gehöre nicht zur Baader Meinhof gruppe

This Is Baader Meinhof.

An exhaustive, brilliantly researched website with the kind of detail and analysis that shows t'internet working at its best.

Written by Richard Huffman (son of Chuck Huffman who, as head of the bomb disposal squad of the US Army's Berlin Brigade in the early seventies, was responsible for defusing a number of terrorist devices) the site covers the formation, career and decline of the left-wing German urban guerilla group, Baader-Meinhof.

Born out of the ideals of the German student movements, and against the backdrop of the 1968 uprisings, the initially popular group quickly lost support once they started their killing sprees.

The site also discusses the overlaps with other groups of the time and region e.g. Red Army Faction (RAF), Socialist Patients Collective (SPK - some of whose theory and writings are available on the net. Scary stuff), Movement 2 June, the West Berlin Tupamaros.

The terrorists in the 1976 Entebbe Hijack (excellent BBC resource, there) comprised two members of Baader-Meinhof and eight members of the Palestinian Liberation Organisation (PLO).*

Aside: Many of New Left were influenced by One Dimensional Man by Herbert Marcuse (online here, critique here), a book critical of both Marxism and Capitalism. Heavy-going but worth a shot...

*Note: the neutrality of the Wikipedia PLO article is currently disputed.
