Japanese: 赤い旅団 - あかいりょだん(英語表記)Brigate Rosse
Red Brigade - Akairyodan (English spelling) Brigade Rosse
Italy's largest and most powerful terrorist and guerilla organization. It was founded in Milan around 1970 as a radical left-wing student organization that believed in Marxism-Leninism. Initially, it aimed to destroy the Italian system, kidnapping and killing Prime Minister Moro and other important figures in the political and business world, as well as bombings. It then expanded its targets, kidnapping NATO Commander Dodger in December 1981. In recent years, it is said to be targeting American SDI research-related institutions and individuals. It cooperates with terrorist organizations not only in Western Europe but also in the Middle East, and in February 1984 it massacred Ramon Hunt, the American inspector general of the UN Observer Forces in the Sinai Peninsula. In the same year, two splinter groups, the Combat Communist Party and the Combat Communist Union, were formed, and the former, the mainstream group, shot and killed Senator Rufiri, who was said to be Prime Minister Demita's right-hand man, in April 1988.
