Sex sells, doesn't it?

I know the history of the RAF, I'll ask my buddy if I can take a photo of the vehicle registration document. He told me he bought the 2002 from her personally (don't know when, I guess in the 70's, he bought 02s everywhere)

The car itself isn't ready to drive, it's a bodyshell but in good condition.

 

Of course I don't like your political views. Anyway.

Museum is a good idea, thanks

Seb, Thank You !  Your friend is in possession of a historical vehicle with a provenance and personal connection to a very influential German revolutionary and counter culture figure. It's great your friend had the foresight to save that car. There are probably many private car collectors who would love to have it. But, it really belongs in a museum in Germany. I'm surprised it's not there already. I'm sure it has something to do with the politics.

 

But, never mind the politics. Many people in the West, especially here in the US, have good intentions, but are clouded by NATO propaganda. I've spent most of my life in the US, a country with a two party system where "Communism" is a word more disparaged that "Pedophile". . And, I'm all too familiar with the zombification of the masses here.

I also liked the RAF in principle at first, but later I didn't, it was really terrorism. My buddy has had the car in the garage for ages and I don't think he's even aware that it's historically interesting. I had suppressed that too, it's good that we talked about it, you gave me an idea. I will suggest that he write to Spiegel (a newspaper) to see if this is an interesting topic for them.

Cool pic (also the police vw t2 bus in the back lol, no chance to catch a 2002) 🙂

Thanks

In the end, the RAF got desperate, especially after many of its members were killed and captured.  For some people it proved too bloody and too much."Terrorism", however is a relative word.

 

Yes, I really think your friend should contact Spiegel. Ulrike Meinhof was also a journalist. The topic may not be popular among the political elite and mainstream media now due to the current political climate of mass anti-Rusian hysteria and Russophobia, but this car should be preserved.
