The New Republic recently published an extraordinary extended article
on the radical European politics of the 1960's.  It follows several
individuals (centering the inquiry on the German Green Party leader
Joschka Fischer) as their views evolved in consequence of their
involvement with and eventual repudiation of the Red Army Fraction, the
Red Brigades, and the most radical of the Palestinian groups. Much
ground is covered, and I came away feeling I understood one of my
German friends a little better.  Here is the link:

What Mr. Toad called (if memory serves) "lurid and inventive cheek" is
healthy under these conditions, so roar on everybody...

Doubt is creative.  Doubt is humane. Only those who doubt can be just.
