Christian Klar the most notorious left wing terrorist is to be released from jail after serving 26 years of multiple life terms. Klar was the leader of the so called Red Army faction (RAF) which was a terrorist organisation during the the 1970's in West Germany. They claimed coutless lives including prominent businesmen, and certain politicans. In 1985 Klar was found guilty on 9 counts of murder and 11 of attempted murder. The german Court has today overlooked these ccrimes and claim that he is no lonegr a threat to society.
This is a clear case of Germany not fearing communism any longer. East and West germany are unified and it seems that today these radical factions can no longer exist and will not be supported by the East. Germany has come a long way and today both sides seem to have embraced liberal democratic values and the capitalist mechanism. Realising Klar, proves that the cold war is dead and buried and a distant memory the 'German' psyche.
