SECRET - ENTIRE TEXT. 2. ON THE MORNING OF 28 DECEMBER THE EMBASSY ADMINISTRATIVE COUNSELOR, THE REGIONAL SECURITY OFFICER SAT IN ON A MEETING HOSTED BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE BONN POLICE AND ATTENDED BY REPRESENTATIVES OF THE BONN POLICE, THE OBJETSHUTZDIENST (OSD, THE OFFICE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PROTECTION OF DIPLOMATIC PERSONNEL AND FACILITIES), 6S6-9 (THE GROUP TRAINED IN HOSTAGE RESCUE OPERATIONS), AND THE LAND INTERIOR MINISTRY (A LAND IS ROUGHLY EQUIVALENT TO A STATE IN THE U.S.). THE PURPOSE OF THIS MEETING WAS FOR THE BKA (A FEDERAL AUTHORITY) (1) TO BRIEF THE OTHER PARTICIPANTS (ALL LAND AUTHORITIES) CONCERNING THE ANALYSIS WHICH LED IT TO CONCLUDE THAT AMBASSADOR BURNS IS A PRIMARY TARGET OF THE RED ARMY FACTION (RAF); (2) TO INFORM THE LAND AUTHORITIES OF ITS INTEREST IN THE CASE WHICH IS PRIMARILY TO APPREHEND THE TERRORISTS THAT MIGHT BE INVOLVED IN SUCH AN ATTEMPT (THE BKA HAS A WARRANT FROM THE FEDERAL PROSECUTING OFFICE TO CONDUCT AN INVESTIGATION WHICH PERMITS THEM TO USE SPECIAL INVESTIGATIVE MEASURES); AND (3) TO WORK OUT LIAISON PROCEDURES BETWEEN THE BKA AND THE POLICE WHICH WILL PERMIT THE TWO AUTHORITIES TO SENSITIVE DECLASSIFIED IN PART State Dept. review completed NLRR CRST BY SSW NARA DATE 7/12/17 No Objection to Declassification in Part 2010/03/25 NLR-767-190-4-9-7 No Objection to Declassification in Part 2010/03/25 NLR-767-190-4-9-7 24 SENSITIVE PAGE 1 - 981 SITUATION LISTING DATE 04/10/85//100 SITUATION: TERRORIST SUBJECT CATAGORY: FILE MESSAGE / ANNOTATION: ACHIEVE THE DUAL OBJECTIVES OF PROTECTING THE AMBASSADOR AND APPREHENDING THOSE WHO MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN KIDNAPPING HIM. 3. THE BKA ANALYSIS GOES BRIEFLY AS FOLLOWS. RAF STRATEGY DOCUMENTS SEIZED BY THE POLICE DURING THE ARREST OF RAF MEMBERS HAVE INDICATED THAT THE RAF HAS A THREE-PHASE STRATEGY FOR OBTAINING THE RELEASE OF ITS MEMBERS IN PRISON. PHASE 1 IS A HUNGER STRIKE BY THOSE PRESENTLY IN PRISON. THIS HUNGER STRIKE BEGAN ON DECEMBER 4. PHASE 2 INCLUDES LOW LEVEL TERRORIST ACTIVITIES BY TERRORIST SYMPATHIZERS AND PERIPHERAL GROUPS AGAINST NATO GOVERNMENTAL AND ECONOMIC INSTITUTIONS THROUGHOUT EUROPE. EXAMPLES OF THIS MAY INCLUDE RECENT ATTACKS AGAINST THIS TYPE OF TARGET IN WEST GERMANY, BELGIUM, AND SPAIN. PHASES 1 AND 2 WERE TO ESCALATE AND EVENTUALLY LEAD UP TO PHASE 3 WHICH IS A HIGH LEVEL TERRORIST ATTACK BY THE RAF TERRORIST HARD CORE. CONSIDERING THAT THE ULTIMATE 60AL OF THE RAF IS TO OBTAIN THE RELEASE OF PRISONERS, THE BKA HAS CONCLUDED THAT A KIDNAPPING WOULD BEST SERVE THEIR PURPOSES. THEY FURTHER CONCLUDE THAT AMBASSADOR BURNS WOULD BE THE PRIME TARGET OF THIS KIDNAPPING BASED UPON TWO FACTS: (1) THE NAME "ARTHUR" APPEARED WITH VARIOUS SPELLINGS IN THE NOTES CAPTURED IN RAF HIDEOUTS (THE BKA IS ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED THAT THIS IS A REFERENCE TO AMBASSADOR ARTHUR BURNS); AND (2) AMBASSADOR BURNS WOULD MAKE AN IDEAL CHOICE AS A HOSTAGE SINCE HE IS BOTH AN AMERICAN, WHICH MEANS THE PRESSURE WOULD BE PLACED ON THE U.S. WHICH IS SEEN AS THE PRIMARY INFLUENCE WITHIN NATO, AND HE HAS SUFFICIENT STATURE, BEING WELL KNOWN IN GERMANY AND BELIEVED TO BE A CLOSE CONFIDANT OF PRESIDENT REAGAN. 4. THE POLICE AND EMBASSY OFFICIALS FOUND THE ANALYSIS PERSUASIVE. THE REGIONAL SECURITY OFFICER HAS DEVELOPED A SET OF RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROTECTIVE MEASURES TO BE TAKEN BY THE POST WHICH WILL BE CONTAINED IN A SEPTEL. MEANWHILE THE POLICE HAVE STEPPED UP THEIR COVERAGE OF THE AMBASSADOR. THEY HAVE ADDED A SECOND PROTECTIVE DETAIL so THAT THE AMBASSADOR HAS BOTH A LEAD AND FOLLOW CAR AND ARE SENDING OUT AN ADDITIONAL POLICE CAR TO CONDUCT AN ADVANCE. THEY HAVE ALSO INCREASED PATROLS IN THE VICINITY OF THE AMBASSADOR'S RESIDENCE, STARTED A PROCEDURE FOR CHECKING THE LICENSE NUMBERS OF VEHICLES IN THE VICINITY AND THE IDENTIFICATION DOCUMENTS OF SUSPICIOUS PERSONS, AND CHECKED THE SEWER SYSTEM FOR PLANTED EXPLOSIVE DEVICES.

WHILE THE BKA'S INTEREST IN THE CASE IS PRIMARILY INVESTIGATIVE AND DIRECTED TOWARD THE APPREHENSION OF THE TERRORISTS POSSIBLY INVOLVED IN SUCH A PLOT, ALL AT THE MEETING ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THE PROTECTION OF THE AMBASSADOR IS PARAMOUNT.

THE BKA ANALYSIS GOES BRIEFLY AS FOLLOWS. RAF\nSTRATEGY DOCUMENTS SEIZED BY THE POLICE DURING THE ARREST\nOF RAF MEMBERS HAVE INDICATED THAT THE RAF HAS A\nTHREE-PHASE STRATEGY FOR OBTAINING THE RELEASE OF ITS\nMEMBERS IN PRISON. PHASE 1 IS A HUNGER STRIKE BY THOSE\nPRESENTLY IN PRISON. THIS HUNGER STRIKE BEGAN ON DECEMBER\n4. PHASE 2 INCLUDES LOW LEVEL TERRORIST ACTIVITIES BY\nTERRORIST SYMPATHIZERS AND PERIPHERAL GROUPS AGAINST NATO\nGOVERNMENTAL AND ECONOMIC INSTITUTIONS THROUGHOUT EUROPE.\nEXAMPLES OF THIS MAY INCLUDE RECENT ATTACKS AGAINST THIS\nTYPE OF TARGET IN WEST GERMANY, BELGIUM, AND SPAIN.\nPHASES 1 AND 2 WERE TO ESCALATE AND EVENTUALLY LEAD UP TO\nPHASE 3 WHICH IS A HIGH LEVEL TERRORIST ATTACK BY THE RAF\nTERRORIST HARD CORE. CONSIDERING THAT THE ULTIMATE 60AL\nOF THE RAF IS TO OBTAIN THE RELEASE OF PRISONERS, THE BKA\nHAS CONCLUDED THAT A KIDNAPPING WOULD BEST SERVE THEIR\nPURPOSES. THEY FURTHER CONCLUDE THAT AMBASSADOR BURNS\nWOULD BE THE PRIME TARGET OF THIS KIDNAPPING BASED UPON\nTWO FACTS: (1) THE NAME \"ARTHUR\" APPEARED WITH VARIOUS\nSPELLINGS IN THE NOTES CAPTURED IN RAF HIDEOUTS (THE BKA\nIS ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED THAT THIS IS A REFERENCE TO\nAMBASSADOR ARTHUR BURNS); AND (2) AMBASSADOR BURNS WOULD\nMAKE AN IDEAL CHOICE AS A HOSTAGE SINCE HE IS BOTH AN\nAMERICAN, WHICH MEANS THE PRESSURE WOULD BE PLACED ON THE\nU.S. WHICH IS SEEN AS THE PRIMARY INFLUENCE WITHIN NATO,\nAND HE HAS SUFFICIENT STATURE, BEING WELL KNOWN IN GERMANY\nAND BELIEVED TO BE A CLOSE CONFIDANT OF PRESIDENT REAGAN.\n4. THE POLICE AND EMBASSY OFFICIALS FOUND THE ANALYSIS\nPERSUASIVE. THE REGIONAL SECURITY OFFICER HAS DEVELOPED A\nSET OF RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROTECTIVE MEASURES TO BE TAKEN\nBY THE POST WHICH WILL BE CONTAINED IN A SEPTEL.\nMEANWHILE THE POLICE HAVE STEPPED UP THEIR COVERAGE OF THE\nAMBASSADOR. THEY HAVE ADDED A SECOND PROTECTIVE DETAIL so\nTHAT THE AMBASSADOR HAS BOTH A LEAD AND FOLLOW CAR AND ARE\nSENDING OUT AN ADDITIONAL POLICE CAR TO CONDUCT AN\nADVANCE. THEY HAVE ALSO INCREASED PATROLS IN THE VICINITY\nOF THE AMBASSADOR'S RESIDENCE, STARTED A PROCEDURE FOR\nCHECKING THE LICENSE NUMBERS OF VEHICLES IN THE VICINITY\nAND THE IDENTIFICATION DOCUMENTS OF SUSPICIOUS PERSONS,\nAND CHECKED THE SEWER SYSTEM FOR PLANTED EXPLOSIVE DEVICES.\nSENSITIVE\nNo Objection to Declassification in Part 2010/03/25 NLR-767-190-4-9-7\nNo Objection to Declassification in Part 2010/03/25 : NLR-767-190-4-9-7\n25\nSENSITIVE\nPAGE 1 - 982\nSITUATION LISTING\nDATE 04/10/85//100\nSITUATION:\nTERRORIST\nSUBJECT CATAGORY: FILE\nMESSAGE / ANNOTATION:\n5.
