Alexander Scheer: Johannes Weinrich

Quotes 

• Johannes Weinrich : [unexpectedly appears at Angie's secluded home]  Don't panic. I'm all alone.

  Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie' : Why shouldn't I panic? No one knows I'm here.

  Johannes Weinrich : Right, no one except your friends. Aren't I still a friend?

  Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie' : I don't know. It depends.

  Johannes Weinrich : You told comrades from the June 2nd Movement you were starting your own group.

  Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie' : To get them off my back.

  Johannes Weinrich : It's not true?

  Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie' : They wanted me to buy weapons. That's not what I'm in this for.

  Johannes Weinrich : So join us! Carlos is leaving Haddad.

  Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie' : Haddad fired him.

  Johannes Weinrich : Bagdad has a new government. They need us. They're willing to pay. And very well.

  Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie' : Iraqi money doesn't interest me. I joined the armed struggle to attack the capitalist system. Not to spread terror. Understand? Not to be hired by the PFLP or Bagdad.

  Johannes Weinrich : The PFLP has been very generous with us. They help our struggle. We help theirs.

  Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie' : You can keep believing that crap. I'm through.

  Johannes Weinrich : You know the rules. You must go back to Aden. You must obey the orders they give you. This is war. You're a soldier. You know it.

  Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie' : I won't go to Aden. I'm not at war and I'll receive orders from no one.

  Johannes Weinrich : You know too much. Names. Places. Secrets. You could endanger the whole network.

  Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie' : I know how it works. I'll stay hidden until I'm forgotten.

  Johannes Weinrich : I doubt Wadie Haddad would risk it. He'll have you killed. Angie! The cops are looking for you! Two people died in Vienna. Your picture was in every fucking paper! You're as good as dead.

  Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie' : I'm no rat.

  Johannes Weinrich : I know. But cops have sophisticated methods. Torture. Drugs. If they want you to talk, you'll talk.

  Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie' : You say you're my friend. I trust you. But if Haddad says to, you'll kill me with no misgivings. Right? That's why I'm no longer with you. And it's why, once you leave, I'll disappear. You'll never find me again.

  [throws Weinrich a sealed box] 

  Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie' : Check this out. Know what's inside? My revolver. And my resignation from the armed struggle.

  Johannes Weinrich : Do you give names?

  Hans-Joachim Klein 'Angie' : I say what I know. About plans to attack 2 Jewish community leaders. If I shut up, I'll never forgive myself! Boni... Boni separated the Jews at Entebbe, like in Auschwitz! I'm an enemy of Zionism. I've proved it. But anti- Semitism: count me out.

• Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos' : Can we talk here?

  Johannes Weinrich : Yes, this place isn't bugged.

  Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos' : How do you know?

  Johannes Weinrich : From the Stasi.

  Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos' : Do you work for them?

  Johannes Weinrich : I have my contacts. And they can always be useful, right?

  Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos' : You can also be useful for them. Boni's will designated you as the new head of the Revolutionary Cells.

  Johannes Weinrich : Or what's left of them.

  Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos' : Meaning?

  Johannes Weinrich : Not alot.

  Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos' : I can help you with that.

  Johannes Weinrich : How?

  Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos' : Things are changing. Haddad is very sick. And he's finished. Too many mistakes. Too many failures. Nobody trusts him anymore. It's time to move on, to look for new support.

  Johannes Weinrich : Algeria.

  Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos' : No. I have new allies. Allies with money, who can pay and pay well. And I need men. And I would like you to be one of them.

  Johannes Weinrich : Without Haddad.

  Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos' : Yes, without Haddad. Forget Haddad.

  Johannes Weinrich : He sends 3,000 dollars a month to the Revolutionary Cells.

  Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos' : Haddad works for Bagdad. What I'm proposing you is to work with Bagdad, directly with Iraqis. No middleman, no intermediary, nothing.

  Johannes Weinrich : But, you know, our network has almost been wiped out. We are not able to operate.

  Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos' : We'll have to rebuild it.

  Johannes Weinrich : Most of us are in jail or dead. I mean we've even lost Angie, he's gone over to the 2nd June movement. And Nada is with them.

  Ilich Ramírez Sánchez, aka 'Carlos' : I don't wanna know anything about Nada. She's a crazy bitch. She's dangerous. But Angie, he's good, he's a good element. You think you can find him?

  Johannes Weinrich : I can try to find out.
