Speaking of Sterling, that reminds me, Powell's Covert Cadre mentions that Peter Weiss (Institute for Policy Studies) petitioned to lend his services to defending the Baader-Meinhof Gang; IPS had a European branch, the Transnational Institute (TNI), and was linked to the Stasi's network via e.g. Orlando Letelier.
