The state

Overview

Germany in the fall of 1977. Hanns-Martin Schleyer is dead. "Urban guerrilla aims to suspend the state's apparatus of rule ... to put the state apparatus of rule ... out of action, to destroy the myth of the omnipresence of the system and its invulnerability." This is what the RAF had written in its "Concept of Urban Guerrilla." The result after seven years of underground struggle was frightening: 28 people died in attacks or gun battles, 17 members of the "urban guerrillas" were killed. Two completely uninvolved people were accidentally shot by the police during manhunts. 47 dead - 47 names - 47 fates: Jürgen Ponto, Siegfried Buback, Hans-Martin Schleyer ... - Ulrike Meinhof, Andreas Baader, Gudrun Ensslin ... The RAF had become a monster, unpredictable and deadly.
