@#$@! Can't these Olympic officials do anything right?

“According to The Telegraph, in 1972, Troger, who was at that time serving as mayor of the Olympic Village during the Munich Games, offered to exchange himself for Israeli hostages during the Black September terrorist attack.”
That’s all I need to know about the man right there.

They probably think they are doing it all right. Defending the “Palestinians”, defending the Nazi-saluting feller . . . and very little backlash. Kinda like the 30s, eh?

I don’t see it that way, does anyone know the condition of his right arm? He does seem to favor it in this clip...sorry I don’t see it

The Nazi salute was done with the right arm. Swinging your left arm back and forth doesn’t look like a Nazi salute to me.

Like I say. He doesn’t seem to be a Nazi. What was it, though? He just had a cramp in his arm? Talk about bad timing. Can’t these people do anything right?

This reminds me of the film Dr. Stangelove, where Peter Seller's German character struggles to restrain his arm that keeps wanting to do the nazi salute. lol.

Doesn’t really look like a Nazi salute anyway, now that I’ve seen it. That shoots straight forward and up from the hip, not from the side like he did. What a ridiculous misunderstanding, easily avoidable by competent people.

Sometimes a stiff outstretched arm is just a stiff outstretched arm.
If someone snapped a photo at my church during the blessing of the prayer blankets, it would look like Nuremberg.

Sheesh. How absolutely silly. How simple it is for idiots to smear someone’s reputation these days.

IOC: Well you started it.
German: No I didn’t.
IOC: Yes you did, you invaded Poland.

This is what is wrong with the Internet. That was no Nazi salute. This is all sinful gossip.

Aside from that, it looked like he was working a cramp out of his elbow, and picked one hell of a time to do it. They haven’t even started their stupid games yet, and the IOC keeps stumbling into controversy like the three stooges.

Devil brow.
Lately I'm learning not to trust people with tell-tale tufts.
But it looks like this ...
... may have been part of a different kind of salute ...
