The subject of "Munich", I gather, is the terrorist events and the murder of Israeli athletes at the Olympics.
Not to disparage the man out of hand - he did make "Schindler's List" - but the fate of the Jews of Hungary is one of the less well known horrors of World War II. It would therefore be more of a commericial risk to make a film about what happened to them, but it would also be the right thing to do to make a public display of respect for their memory.
Since his behavior was apparently so abominable in Budapest (my grandparents' birth city), I wonder if the Steven is aware that Hitler murdered 600,000 Hungarian Jews at the very end of the war (1945). Wanting to do as much damage as possible, Adolf picked on Hungary because they'd been thus far spared the worst of the Holocaust.
When I think of Budapest and Munich in the same breath, my mind still rushes to the horrible fate of those 600,000 Hungarian Jews at the hand of the Nazis. I can't help wondering if Spielberg - a Jew blessed beyond belief with intelligence, talent and incacalculabe success - was callous enough not to even honor the memory of his fellow Jews while he was in Budapest.
IF he pressed on with his current blockbuster hopeful project and didn't make a decided point of honoring the fallen Jews of Hungary, then he could be dubbed ugly indeed. And ungrateful as hell.
Well he's given millions to Holocaust charities and started the Shoah Foundation which goes all over the world recording testimony of survivors.
I don't know if it's true or not, but I heard that the Poles and Romanians were actually leashed in a bit by the Germans, because they went overboard on the jew torture and killings even by Nazi standards.
