They were a German terrorist group that was in action from 1970 till 1998. I'm seriously fascinated by them, because they were a really small group of people who basically managed to terrorize Germany. They were extreme left wing, in other words, communist...(Hitler was right wing and he was before this).  

Another fascinating bit is that one of their most brutal members, well, actually a person who started it all, was a woman. A woman! Ulrike Meinhof...Journalist and terrorist. I'm amazed by that. Isn't there a reason for why women are meant to be the gentle sex?

Terrible? Yes, but also fascinating and incredible.

Actually, a group made of men and women terrorizing a country and politicians.

There was no specific guy.

LOL, I know, it just seemed kind of funny. But you do realize terrorist organizations have specific goals, and specific people they wish to affect. AND Germany is considered the "Fatherland" so yeah lol.

She was on her period the whole time IMO.


I've also read that some of the members, one example being Mahler, turned into a neo-Nazi or National Socialist after being a part of the Red Army Faction.

I've also read that they were the successors to the Baader-Meinhof Gang, which originated in the student protest movement in the 1960s.

Fatherland: Nazi term. No one in Germany would use that unless their dumb, ignorant, or a Neo-Nazi.

Their goal was to undermine political structures, such as democracy.

The Baader-Meinhof gang and the RAF are the same thing. It's just two different names for it.

If he did do that...he was a complete idiot, because the RAF stand for the exact opposite extreme.

I'm pretty sure that's just a rumor. It makes no sense.

His name is Horst Mahler.
I read it in an article, but it says it in Wiki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horst_Mahler" target="_top">http://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horst_Mahler


Mahler became known as a founding member of the radical leftist Baader-Meinhof Group in 1970. In 2000 he joined the right-wing NPD and represented the party in court.

You can read about it in the link too.

Well, how are Communist terrorists better than National Socialists?

Do you KNOW what National Socialists (many times labeled as neo-Nazis) are?

That's not an answer - I happen to know quite a bit about the German status on these things anyway.

Okay then - if you know so much - what IS a National Socialist? What are their beliefs? What's bad about them?
