Several hundred North Vietnamese even left behind their AK-47 rifles, violating the most...
...house painter named Josef Bachmann, who had traveled to Berlin expressly to kill Dutschke. "I read about Martin Luther King and thought, 'You too must do something like this,' " he explained to police. Even as Dutschke underwent a successful five-hour operation for the removal of a bullet from his skull, and seemed to be on the way to recovery, the news of the attempted assassination caused Germany's most widespread civil disturbances since the early 1930s...
