Bret Stephens: Red Terror, Green Terror, Anti-Americanism is the common thread - '...Terrorists have always relied on the morbid fascination their actions tend to exert among ordinary people, fascination which usually descends to "understanding" and often to a kind of romance. Despite its ultimate defeat, the Baader-Meinhof Gang managed to accomplish that trick brilliantly, and now its surviving members have earned clemency and become part of a certain folklore. Whether they deserve it is ultimately up to Germans to decide (however unjust that may be to their American victims). But it might also be asked what effect a rose-tinted view of the past has on a clear-eyed view of the present. Today's anniversary makes for a dreadful foreboding.'
