ArmThe Spii

A response 0 “Thisa ot Love Song” from an RZ-
&roup o the traditonal lne.

We aleothink that discuesion aboutpolitcs snd
moral, and ot just about th prais, i, d direcion
of millan an rmed actions s wavoidable.

Nevertheless, we regard e discasion and lso the
often el imed criques of acions rahe diffeely;
forus, it is impossbe 0 lump togeber and negaiively
criizs ackions which re, for vy basc easons, quile
disinct. In our opiion, the RAF stack on the US.
embasey n Bona, the RZ tiacks onthe Victory Pillrand
the Reichriag, andthe murdes o Hano Klein ave very
lie in common.

S0 we wouldlike o beifly skech oot what these
various actons meant 1 us and what thoughis they
broaghe tomind, and we'd like o examine the crticsms
‘which you ised:

‘We were very pleased when we heardabout this,
because we 1aw that our comradesfrom the RAF wese

fac s the hots were fred o an American embasey in
the Foderal Repablc of Germany was cerainly some-
thing which must have become known owsde our bor-
ders. And in this way, peope o the Three Continents,
‘nd eapucialy in Arab tertorie, could be shown tht,
even nhe metrpoles, herear peoptein solidaricy with
them. Such was tis action, nd though pehape jut
minor one, it mast ponebeles be seen 46 4 way of

we think they wrote # dama good 4nd undersandable
