UPDATED: Der Baader Meinhof Komplex

Filmstalker is talking up Der Baader Meinhof Komplex. I don't speak any German but the trailer looks good and I may pick up the book it's based on.

It follows the story of the Red Army Faction, a terrorist group that operated within Germany in the sixties and seventies conducting robberies, assassinations, bombings and hijackings and is based on the novel by Stefan Aust which gives the definitive history of the German terrorist group.


Can anyone translate the trailer?

    Moderator: Misses Meinhof, you adopt the position of the protesting students, why?
    Meinhof: In the right press, they put the blame for the catsastrophe on the second Juli on the students itself. The truth is, that freedom in this country, the freedom for the ... is.

    Chief of Police: I think that this grouping, which perceives the situation as oppression, will not hesitate to throw bombs on what they see as kinky awareness of the society.

    We have to get them out, soon.
    One of our members think we can hijack a 747 and let it circle about Bonn until the fuel runs empty and it falls down from on high.

    Baader: The actions running outside were done by the people of the second and third generation. Compared to what happens now, we pursued a moderate policy.
