Wilfried Böse was born in Bamberg, Germany, in 1949. He died on July 4, 1976 in Entebbe, Uganda. He was one of the left-wing radicals of Frankfurt am Main, representing the Red Star Publishing House (Verlag Roter Stern) and fundraiser for the "Black Panthers" of Algiers. He was the main founder of the terrorist group "Revolutionary Cells" of Germany. Beginnings in subversion
Böse grew up in Bamberg, later studied Sociology in Frankfurt am Main, but left his studies to take over the sales of the "Red Star" Editorial. In the University he married Brigitte Kuhlmann, with whom he goes into hiding to participate in the armed struggle of the seventies in Germany. They founded together with Johannes Weinrich the group denominated "Revolutionary Cells".
In order to internationalize the revolutionary struggle, they are captured by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), directly with the section External Maneuvers, under the command of Wadi Haddad. Both received military training in South Yemen. In 1976, they were instructed to carry out on June 27, 1976, the abduction of an Air France Airbus with 250 passengers, en route from Tel Aviv, scaled in Athens and final destination in Paris, which was once abducted , brought to Entebbe, Uganda under the protection of Idi Amin. This operation was carried out by Böse, Kuhlmann and two Arab members of the Palestinian terrorist group FPLP. The lawsuit was the release of several Palestinian and German terrorists who were imprisoned in Israel and elsewhere.
On July 4, 1976, the Israeli government clandestinely entered four military aircraft to rescue the 106 hostages held by Böse, Kuhlmann and their accomplices from the PFLP, unleashing the so-called "Operation Entebbe". During the military operation Böse was shot dead, as were Brigitte Kuhlmann, the two Palestinian kidnappers, three other PFLP militants who had joined the command at the airport and some 20 Ugandan soldiers. Israeli troops released the hostages and returned immediately to Israel.
His name was claimed by the Red Army Fraction, at the final dissolution stage of April 20, 1998, at the time of the official dissolution of that group.
