Georg Elser, the bomber who was arrested while crossing the border between Constance and Switzerland even before the bomb went off, is also incarcerated at Sachsenhausen and, then, Dachau, and is withheld until 1945 for a role as a witness against England for the prosecution in a planned show trial after the presumed Endsieg.
Elser’s example would have been an argument from the standpoint of contemporary history against the alleged impotence in the face of the brutal force of terror, which played a significant role in the rehabilitation of the Germans after the war.
Elser’s resistance is based more on an anarchistic model according to which each individual is responsible for the destruction of state power even though a legitimating vision of the foundation of a new, democratic state need not (or should not) be behind the model.

Nevertheless Georg Elser’s assassination attempt at Munich’s Bürgerbräu on 8.11.1939 is only thought worthy of brief mention in the chronology at the end of his book: “Unsuccessful attempt on Hitler’s life by a loner, Georg Elser, in Munich”.
