Terrorist Threats and Plans - Tab B Format Changes
Section I covers threats in the United States and against U.S. targets worldwide.
Section II covers threats in the Western Hemisphere excluding the United States,
i.e., in Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean.
Within Section I, threats are arranged alphabetically by country or area.
Within Section II-VII, threats for which no country is specified appear first,
followed by the specific countries in alphabetical order. In cases of multiple
country entries, the first country listed determines the alphabetical order of
that item.
The usage of symbols is changed to the following key:
** New threat reported for the first time.
* Revision of a threat reported in previous issues.
The absence of a * symbol indicates that the threat was reported previously
and is in summary form with a parenthetical reference to an earlier issue
reporting the threat in full detail.
# Appears in Sections 1I-VII, indicating a threat against a U.S. target
reported in detail in Section I.

Lone Gunman Attempts to Hijack KLM Jet
On 2 October, a an identified as Franz-Josef Stremmer of
Kirchellen, West Germ ny, attempted to hijack to Bonn a KLM
Royal Dutch DC-9 jet bound from Duesseldorf to Amsterdam, ac-
cording to the Associated. Press. A Dutch police spokesman
stated that Stremmer smuggled a gun on board the plane, used
it to threaten a stewardess, and then demanded that the plane
be turned around and flown to Bonn, where negotiations would
be conducted with West German officials.
Stremmer stated is demands in a rather confused note
which he gave to the stewardess. In the note he demanded the
resignation of West German Premier Willy Brandt, the release
of Ulrike Meinhoff and other members of the Baader Meinhoff
terrorist group who are currently being held in West German
prisons, and stated that he was hijacking the plane to protest
"the inhuman crimes perpetrated by the German Secret Service
against me and my family." The note further stated that any
attempt to overpower Stremmer would "result in the unavoidable
death of all crew members and passengers aboard."
The pilot changed his course for Bonn and went: back
to talk with the hijacker. Stremmer was disarmed, and the
plane was put back oncourse and landed safely at Amsterdam,
where Stremmer was to en into custody by Dutch police. The
police spokesman stat~d that the 27 passengers on board the
aircraft were not aware of the incident while the hijack was
in progress. (UNCLASSIFIED)

the Marchegg operation was not the first attack by this group
but had been preceded by several others which, although not
publicized, were all successful. The theater of operations of
the Eagles, he added, is Europe and there are Eagle cells in
several European cities. The Eagles leader explained that
many of the Eagles are educated and cultured individuals and
that one of the Marchegg terrorists possessses an advanced de-
gree in mechanics and the other terrorist has a law degree.
He also claimed that an "electronic brain" was used in plan-
ning the operation. (Comment: There is no confirmation that
the "Eagles of the Palestinian Revolution" actually exists.
Fedayeen terrorist groups have been fabricating new names to
cover their operations, and most reporting indicates that the

Terrorist Threats and Plans - Tab B Format Changes
(Effective 3 October issue)
Section I covers threats in the United States and against U.S. targets worldwide.
Section II covers threats in the Western Hemisphere excluding the United States,
i.e. in Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean.
Within Section I, threats are arranged alphabetically by country or area.
Within Section II-VII, threats for which no country is specified appear first,
followed by the specific countries in alphabetical order. In cases of multiple
country entries, the first country listed determines the alphabetical order of
that item.
The usage of symbols is changed to the following key:
** New threat reported for the first time.
* Revision of a threat reported in previous issues.
The absence of a * symbol indicates that the threat was reported previously
and is in summary form with a parenthetical reference to an earlier issue
reporting the threat in full detail.
# Appears in Sections II-VII, indicating a threat against a U.S. target
reported in detail in Section I.

A news story from Jakarta, Indonesia,
claiming that the "Okudaira Group" is
planning to hijack a plane, appeared in
the 4 October Japanese press. The infor-
mation reportedly came from Indonesian
airline officials who sourced it to an
airline company in Singapore. Members
of the "Okudaira Group" were involved in
the 1972 Lod airport massacre. (Comment:
This could be a resurfacing of old in or-
mation concerning Japanese extremists'
plans to hijack aircraft; it also could
be connected with a current threat against
Israeli aircraft in Vienna or Rome. See
Section III.) (UNCLASSIFIED)

Argentine Airlines Plane Hijacked
On 20 October an Argentine Areolinas 737 jet bound from
Buenos Aires to Salta, Argentina, with 41 passengers aboard
was hijacked by four armed terrorists who claimed to be Tupa-
maros, according to press reports. The plane eventually ended
up in the small Bolivian border town of Yacuiba, whether by
accident or design is not clear, and after approximately two
days of negotiations the hijackers surrendered to Bolivian
authorities, presumably after being granted safe conduct to
Cuba, although this point is unclear at present.
Although reporting on the incident is sketchy, the story
emerging from a variety of press sources indicates that the
hijackers, two men and two women who were armed with a 32-
caliber pistol, a 22-caliber carbine and two 22-caliber pistols,
took over the aircraft and directed it to Tucuman, Argentina,
where Argentinan authorities refused to refuel the plane and
refused to negotiate with the hijackers. For reasons which
are not clear, the plane left Tucuman and. landed at Yacuiba,
12 kilometers from the Argentine border. The plane was trapped
at Yacuiba because the airport runway was too short for the
plane to take off, and because the airport did not have the
type of fuel the 737 required. Airport authorities stated
that it was a miracle that the plane landed safely.
After the plane landed it was surrounded by 200 Bolivian
troops armed with submachine guns. The hijackers demanded that
the Bolivian government provide them with a plane to carry them
to Cuba. The government refused but offered the hijackers safe
conduct out of Bolivia. The hijackers let 37 of the passengers
go but kept two Argentine deputies, a French scientist and the
pilot and copilot as hostages, and threatened to kill the hos-
tages one by one if their demands were not met.
President Hugo Banzer of Bolivia stated that he was han-
dling the negotiations personally and threatened to mount a
military operation against the aircraft if the hijackers did
not accept the Bolivian government's offer. The Argentine
government steadfastly refused to take part in any negotiations
and asked the Bolivian government to detain the hijackers and
turn them over to Argentine authorities.

The negotiations were carried on through the Bolivian
Consul at Salta. At one point the hijackers asked for the
intervention of the international press, and it was reported
that the Bolivian Minister of Information and Sports and
a group of foreign correspondents were on their way to Yacuiba
to witness the exchange of hostages for safe-conduct documents.
According to the Argentine press, the hijackers have surren-
dered their weapons and the hostages, accepted the Bolivian
offer, and as far as is known, are on their way to Cuba.

He said, "Palestinian commandos will at-

passports or Italian passports. They
could go inside a train station. . . and
kill people. Or they could attack a con-
